Thanks. I’m going to cut and paste this into my med school application.

Are you being purposefully obtuse? Damn.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: police union spokesmen are the worst people in America.

It begins with not relying upon this dysfunctional abomination of a government to do the right thing.

What the fuck are you talking about? Heaven isn’t real and there aren’t any Western Theocracies. Also, that doesn’t even mean that rape isn’t bad. It just means people are able to get universal salvation.

No, no. You are not following along here. I said that I won’t entertain a discussion about immigration without also discussing the imperialist and capitalist policies of the US that lead to these immigration problems in the first place. I’m sure that many, if not all, immigrants would prefer to stay in their homes.

Yeah, if it makes you feel better to lay all of that suffering at my feet, you go right ahead. I’ll be that for you. Gladly.

Oh, yeah! The name calling. Love it. You do know that the plural of “anecdote” is not “data,” right?

Another way to look at it is 20% of something you want is better than 0% of something you want.

Okay, in the West, rape is universally bad

I’m interested to know how you define “success.” I imagine it involves a lot of you standing in front of a mirror and thinking “you’re bad person.”

I tried to head that off at the pass, but you went right for it, didn’t you. I said I was leveling. And, rape is not seen as being universally bad. There are cultures that exist right now where it’s perfectly acceptable. You’re just spouting ideology and trying to pass it off as fact, friend. I doubt people of…

This is a pretty myopic viewpoint. I won’t really entertain discussions about immigration without first discussing the imperialist policies that lead to these immigration “problems” in the first place. That’s the core of my objection to this so-called bipartisanship: it removes any discussion of moral duty and…

Yes, yes, I’m an absolutist. Totally and completely. It’s because I know that my ethics and morals are far more valuable than process and compromise. But you keep fighting the good fight, broham. I’m sure you’ll find some way to meet in the middle with the white nationalists and neo-nazis.

What you’re articulating here is commonly known as the “golden mean fallacy,” or the “argument to moderation.” It’s the trap that the Republicans set for the Democrats all the time, because they fall for it all the time. There is no such thing as the “rational conservative,” and any attempt to work with them is a…

so you can keep yourself safe and hold police officers accountable after the fact.

Buddy, if you don’t realize that “bipartisanship” means that the citizens are getting fucked, then you’ve not been paying enough attention.

This is a work of art.

This guy looks more and more like Emperor Palpatine every time I see him.

That will never happen, my friend. Look at what’s happening to Sarah Smith in Washington. The party is going out of its way to eliminate progressive voices.
