Respectful Politics Thread (Let's Just See)

[CensoredAlso]

To me,

It is one thing I am at least aware of what's going on and am disgusted with the fact that Trump is doing this to our country. But at the same time, I want to focus more on my own life and problems and just let this issue pop up from time to time in my mind and not constantly think about it 24/7.

I think that's what Thunder was getting at.

Oops, were you two guilty of Wrong Think again? For shame.

Dude, serious question but have you thought of becoming an English professor one day?

Yes, but I just copied this straight from Google search so don’t give me credit for it.

If my music career never takes off, being an English teacher would also be a good field for me, though.

Lol, I was literally just now apologizing to someone online because we had a disagreement, until I realized she was a librarian and they tend to have the personality of being very exacting in their language. My friend who is an English major and teacher is the same way, lol.

Yep, lol. I do it a lot to other people but it’s usually all a joke. This post isn’t even 100% grammatically correct.

If you were a right-winger, would you be backing down from your ideals, Jamie?

The "you're not accepting my oppression of you, therefore you're intolerant" stance is bogus. The other question makes little sense.

Yeah, but you leftists who don’t want anyone to be discriminated against shouldn’t be cheering when Sanders is.

The thing is, some leftists don't see the right as merely the disagreeing side. They see them as the boogey man that must be defeated.

I don’t listen to that stuff.
