No it's not really a massive leap in logic. You are repeating the same argument and I am going to repeat the same rebuttal: If we accept as true that not just any republican would implement Trump's loonier policies, you must also concede that there might well be an alternate future where the republican appoints a justice who sways the decision on roe v wade.
Again, you are not very persuasive. I suspect this is because you have little real passion for this.

I mean theoretically sure it's possible, it's just not very likely. Both parties tend to be pretty careful about vetting SCOTUS nominees, there've been a few cases where the Party regrets its choice in a few years (see David Souter). In fact you can already see this happening with Trump, Amy Coney Barrett has sided against him in several recent decisions.
 
I promise you as much as you feel your right about that, hate is genuinely only from the devil, when you give into it your allowing evil to win.
to be honest with you we're coming from two different moralities, you are coming from the Christian love your enemy and turn the other cheek while I am coming from the Jewish perspective of "If someone comes to kill you, rise up and kill him first" which understands that personal safety overrides the need for mercy.

another reason why i hate the term judeo-christian, we have very different approaches
 
this is a massive leap in logic that shows you have no fucking idea what you're taking about

Any Republican would appoint a Republican justice. Not any Republican would implement Trump's loonier policies. They might be bastards but they aren't fucking idiots.
Hey i've waited for 4 hours for you to present an example of kremlin propaganda, where is it, you retarded sub-nigger ?
 
This isn't 4chan, dude. You don't win by insulting everyone in the thread.
If he has a problem with literally everybody in this thread, that being one of the most high-traffic threads on this site, what he can do is log out, never log back in, and stop wasting his time engaging in slap fights with people on anonymous websites like this. However, none of us have to do anything to him personally or answer him to his folly/yell and revile back - just realize he's likely going to remain a stunted, miserable tool and also realize that his habits and mindset will catch up to him eventually.
 
Look dawg I got a sandwich in one hand and Kiwifarms in the other I’m just trying to get some info on my break lol.
Fair enough, lol. I don't know what Reddit is tweaking about but it's likely retarded.

Maybe if we show a little kindness to new users, they'll adjust. I can understand someone coming here from 4chan and being fucked up after having to deal with the shitty mods, shills, and other troglodytes. Give the little niggas a chance.

The best outcome is they adapt and contribute. The worst outcome is we all enjoy halal.

Turning the other cheek is a problem in current western nations. I can understand forgiving someone who is genuinely sorrowful and is attempting to improve. That same courtesy doesn’t apply to islamists or globalist radicals that want to forcibly erase national identities.

"Turn the other cheek" doesn't mean let your enemies kill you. There is no such concept in Christianity.

Basically, police have to actually enforce laws and there was some more secret retard bullshit being used to disrupt law enforcement for political reasons that Trump wants to put an end to. Something called “consent decrees”.
Tbh, no clue but hopefully it works out.
 
I don't really know shit about languages but it seems to me like English is extremely efficient at transmitting information compared to Asiatic ones. You have a tranime avatar so surely you have subconsciously come to this conclusion, while watching subtitled anime where the character goes:
"hup shi do go muh fugga ching chang chong chong gook gook mook spidook"

and then the English translation is:

"can I have some"
It's sort of the opposite. Japanese for example is what's called pro-drop because it's normal to drop pronouns. Combined with the fact that a lot of information can be included in a verb and its conjugation, it's perfectly natural and common for Japanese sentences to be a single verb.

English loves its pronouns so much you get pronouns that arguably don't mean anything at all, like the "it" in "it is raining".
 
English is the obvious choice for a inter-national language.

English is a hybrid language. Primarily between Latin-based Romance languages (blue on map) and Germanic languages (rust color). Romance language speakers will understand, in context, the English word liberty (Italian: libertà, French: liberté, etc). Germanic speakers will understand, in context, the English word milk (German: milch, Swedish: mjölk, etc)
Indo-European Languages.webp
In order to be hybrid, English has to be flexible with the order of nouns and verbs in sentences. English also dropped "gender" and other complicated language features. English adopts other languages' words when something new is labeled instead of creating its own word. Especially names of foreign objects. English speakers and the foreign object's natives can both refer to the object (for example, to trade ginseng). When precise scientific terms are needed English uses classic language roots (Latin, Greek). These roots are more likely to be intuitively understood by Indo-European language users.

English's flexibility and 800 basic words is enough for people to communicate fairly well. With context (e.g. pointing at an object) you can do international trade. This also allows pidgen versions of English to easily be created.

English is also capable of rapid language creation in subdomains. In-group slang is easily created. Domain specific technical terminology is easily created. Creative cultural works can imbue themselves with ensorcelled lexicography, multiplexed techno-babble, thine kyng's Ænglisc, kawaii desu, and straight up nigga lingo.

Everyone from the dumbest retard to the esoteric intelligentsia will find English very useful.

TL;DR: English be OP, simple as.
 
What’s the deal with Trump’s EO about increasing police power or something? Reddit is freaking out again so hopefully it means immediate execution for shoplifters and loiterers.
Trump is personally pardoning every Milwaukee police officer who responds to calls at Patrick S. Tomlinson's home.
Eh. It's alright. Would probably be better if it were a book.
There are a few books. The first is Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers. The audiobook version is read by Rimmer if I remember right, highly recommend.
