If rape means what Emma chooses it to mean, is that meaning projected onto me, as an observer?

okay... her desires ARE semi unclear to me. what if i wanted to watch it to try and understand those desires? is it still considered without her consent? i do not get art at all. sorry if i’m a bother by asking!

I think the artists point is to make you admit why you think it sucks.

So I’m a non-status flyer. I’m also thrifty and I used to be somewhat poor, but not so poor that I didn’t save what money I could to travel. I simply love flying places.

But no one here made the argument that our government and military should be taken lightly. Vince Vaughn said nothing to that effect either. I’m not defending anyone who would say such a thing.

Wrong. It’s just a question of determination

Yeah, but a revolution within a military often comes after the country is already at war internally.

I never said they “would” do anything.

Yeah, killing dissidents is so easy, we’ll finish killing all the bad guys in Afghanistan any day now, right? It’s super easy with robots, and stuff. I mean, they don’t really have anything but AK47s, rocks and a few IEDs. We can just sit back in our seats, yeah?

You realize there are governments fighting their people right now, right?

Exactly.

“ok buddy”

When people say things like this, I wonder if they realize that our armed forces have nuclear bombs and anti tank missles and drones and your semi automatic weapon will be vaporized just like the rest of you.

Nonserviam, a bunch of guys are all saying the same thing, which is that getting a boner is partly beyond our control. This includes suppressing said boner. For me, anyways, the thought of “OMG I gotta get rid of this boner!!!” does nothing, and possibly makes things worse if I get nervous about it.

You’re essentially arguing that you should be able to tell your neighbor’s children what to do because pointing out that you aren’t their father is an “ad hominem attack.” Or that saying John Cusack can’t serve as an attorney is an “ad hominem attack.”

You are entirely too concerned with group membership. Whether or not Dawkins can accurately “gauge the impact” is entirely beside the point. You have just constructed an elaborate ad hominem.

Thanks!

I just asked the exact same thing. I figured they’d get him on banking laws. I’m interested to hear from someone who knows what’s up.

Any lawyers here?

Umm, yeah, these are MY criticisms. That’s how the world works. Ideas exist in the minds of individual people, and they are shared when we voice them. If you wish to dismiss my criticism due to the fact that I’m a dude, well, that’s a crappy reason, but that’s up to you.
