Maybe. There’s a reason this sort of pattern continues to happen, and it’s often because the payment handling services tend to themselves be quite leery about taking payments for adult content, and so transfer that to services in between like ISPs, middlemen services like Patreon, etc. A more adult-friendly…

Imagine how much worse that’d be if you and your son were Asian, though.

If you meant to write that you feel 50% is a hard cap for what you feel is fair to be taxed (and is now 33%), you suck hard at communicating that.

“Put simply, if those that work 40 hours get the same paycheck as those that work 60. The ones that worked 60 lost “everything” they worked harder for, even though they still get a paycheck.”

Nope, tried that and the dudes just got offended. >_<

I think the problem people are having with your attitude is that it sounds like you’re actively against any law which might have some positive effect on this front because it can’t be positive enough an effect, but you seem to be ignoring any possible ratio gain in potential lives saved to rights given up for this. It…

“is not the most efficient way to kill a lot of people.”

“Why is it that we don’t treat this cult like any other?”

Yeah, that’s what I was trying to figure out too... like the most generous interpretation I can think of is just this absolute lack of any thought of context and he’s like, yeah, if you don’t count all the people who failed to take the steps needed to vote, then the turnout of real voters was much higher. It’s like…

“Any consideration for the view point that it is unhealthy to the individual to generate a lifelong perception that “feeding me is the government’s job”?”

“As a heterosexual white man, age 18-50, do you know how hard it is to find representation?”

Consider the GOP national elected official. In their native environment, the GOP have evolved diminished spines, as it is easier to get more nourishment from corporate paymasters when writhing as close to the dirt as possible. Currently, the Red Billed Trumpets’ migratory patterns hew close to Washington DC, meaning…

“As long as he breathes and talks shit about Hillary, his base will be happy with their choice.”

Unless the 2018 midterms go just absolutely over-the-top blue, there are currently only two ways that Trump leaves office before 1/20/2021:

Hey, you don’t raise taxes in war time! What are you, a commie? /s

That’s a really good point, too. I’d slightly doubt they go that route, but I could see playing up elements of alliances and tensions with black and native peoples in New Colonia and perhaps the tribal nations as well if the USA can’t as easily suppress them in their timeline.

The one part that I’m super curious about with that is if Sherman’s March to the Sea still happens in that timeline. The breakdown of Southern industry seems to have been a major piece of the long-lasting wallowing of those states compared with the North and West. Does this not happen in that timeline, or is this…

Oh, no, it’ll be both, because this is the kind of shit that feeds into the Dinesh D’souza contingent’s “Democrats WUZ racists, so they’z STILL racist” organized idiocy campaign.

Also, as in the case with North Carolina banning local jurisdictions from having more permissive bathroom access laws, “smaller / more local is better” is always just BS for “look, we know what we’re doing is assholes, but we want it that way.” The second the tables are turned, expect the hypocricy.

Pretty sure there’s an answer somewhere in the realm between immediately defaultable and never ever never defaultable, never mind that whole free tuition thing.
