Politics General

almost 6 years

Since some users dislike the political discussions on the Sandbox lobby wall, I’ve decided to make a serious thread where people can discuss political issues/tangentially-related discourse.

Please keep name-calling to a minimum and remember that site rules still apply. While this “debate” is not technically “moderated,” I reserve the right to mute anyone who decides to make this thread all about Jamal or Neanderthals or whatever.

Please just try to use this space to contain conversations that are otherwise derailing in other places.

because ive experienced firsthand

my mom has an incurable disease that will eventually kill her. she's had over 3 surgeries and has died twice. she's had internal bleeding because her body has been cut open so much she has no more muscle to hold herself together. she has to have injections every two weeks and they cost 5k apiece but luckily her insurance covers it. she's had over 3 insurance companies drop her because she's too expensive to cover. literally when people say "oh that sucks if they can't afford it" have clearly never watched their parent die and be resuscitated or watch her be 95 pounds

they will never understand and have no room to ever speak on it because they dont understand its real families and real people who will die

At least you provide more reasoning than just "believe what I say because if you don't you're stupid"

murderers and pedophiles make up less then 1% of the population. the subject pertained to the general populace. Nice strawmanning tho

i said people who don't care if other people die are awful people which is basic fact.


Seems pretty relevant to me. You shouldn't make any claims if you can't back them up.

pretty shoddy attempt at skewing the convo and also completely irrelevant to what I've said my last few posts

I don't care if a pedophile or mass murderer gets executed. Am I an awful person?

no i said people who don't care if other people die are awful people which is basic fact. if someone believes in that its going to take a bit more than a post on a java mafia forum to fix it

You're posting in a public forum though and other people may read what you say and it could change their mind. Instead of doing that, you just call anyone you disagree with a "poopoo head idiot face" and make yourself look bad.

I agree with you guys but the way you go about proving your point is horrendous.

its not even an argument people who believe in that literally don't have rights

Right way to argue on this thread: I believe letting people die due to inability to afford healthcare is immoral. If you disagree, that is fine because this is what I believe in and not everyone has to believe in it.

Wrong way to argue on this thread: You're an idiot for believing in something I don't agree on. Your parents should have killed you and i'm surprised you got this far in life. Please dispose of yourself while I dye my short hair a new shade of green.

anti-trump people want to be considered people too but they physically look like clowns and everyone knows clowns aren't people
