Re: It is? Like what? ßelals Girl Send a noteboard - 26/09/2017 02:08:17 PM

View original postI don't say that it's not justified to push back for your right to a non-PC opinion - I'm certainly annoyed enough at times about people on the left who try to shout everyone else down. Just pointing out it doesn't really make a lot of sense to rank it among your top priorities. What's that American saying again - sticks and stones can break my bones, but words will never hurt me? It's not just spoiled liberal college kids who should remember that.

Actually, some of these words being flung around have the ability to destroy lives, careers and relationships, regardless of how well the person being called them shrugs it off.

He's right on socialism Tom - 25/09/2017 12:42:26 AM 708 Views
What about market socialism? Coops are decently popular. Ocean Spray is doing fine. *NM* Ghavrel - 25/09/2017 01:28:19 AM 377 Views
Ocean Spray is not a socialist venture in any way that I can see. Tom - 25/09/2017 01:45:44 AM 782 Views
Sure, by the original meaning of the word. Legolas - 25/09/2017 05:22:50 PM 721 Views
People misuse words all the time (cf. ironic). That's their problem. Tom - 25/09/2017 07:25:55 PM 720 Views
I'm making the argument... Legolas - 26/09/2017 07:12:56 PM 814 Views

It's an interesting idea. Ghavrel - 27/09/2017 02:19:19 AM 769 Views
Sounds like Singapore to me. *NM* aerocontrols - 27/09/2017 02:33:06 AM 367 Views
See, I wouldn't call Singapore democratic. Ghavrel - 27/09/2017 05:03:14 AM 646 Views

*shrug* aerocontrols - 27/09/2017 01:05:47 PM 668 Views
I think that's a weakness of your spectrum argument, though. Ghavrel - 27/09/2017 11:06:16 PM 604 Views
the non military is the further stretch random thoughts - 27/09/2017 02:16:03 PM 698 Views

Almost missed this reply, hiding down here. aerocontrols - 27/09/2017 09:40:41 PM 690 Views
Uh. You say no, but what follows makes it sound like yes? Legolas - 27/09/2017 11:42:11 PM 789 Views
You're again making an idiotic argument Tom - 27/09/2017 07:25:36 PM 739 Views
Which you then did your best to prove? Thank you for that, by the way. Legolas - 27/09/2017 09:13:28 PM 769 Views
No, socialist is socialist. What is so hard about that? Tom - 28/09/2017 05:05:27 AM 682 Views

I made the mistake of bothering to try reading a New York Times article Tom - 29/09/2017 12:38:07 AM 858 Views
It was a brilliant speech all around, and you don't understand Trump based on those comments. Tom - 21/09/2017 08:32:29 PM 732 Views
He's doing jack shit. He tells people everything they want to hear, then blames Congress... Legolas - 21/09/2017 08:57:36 PM 760 Views
That's absolutely not what he's doing Tom - 22/09/2017 09:54:34 PM 703 Views

Trump lost credibility to me on the 'anti-PC' / 'pro free speech' issue aerocontrols - 26/09/2017 07:54:06 PM 653 Views
Yes, the "snowflake" accusation is rather hard to take seriously from people upset about the flag. *NM* Ghavrel - 26/09/2017 08:24:29 PM 329 Views
Let's hold the phone here for a moment.... Jeordam - 26/09/2017 09:07:07 PM 658 Views

I saw a statistic somewhere in an article about the controversy... Legolas - 27/09/2017 06:47:04 PM 649 Views
80% of the players may be black but a similar percentage of the fans are white random thoughts - 28/09/2017 12:59:57 PM 649 Views
Makes sense. But if 80 percent of your players is taking the other position... Legolas - 28/09/2017 06:43:23 PM 955 Views
