[dodint]

Daaaaang.

[NTP66]

Has pissbaby conceded yet?

[Freddy Rumsen]

I just realized what makes nobody and Freddy so similar. A prideful, boasting inability to accept criticism and reflect. A behaivor that enables them to just relentlessly force themselves and their positions onto others.
Remind you of anyone?

I'm wrong constantly in this and in many other threads, especially the Star Wars thread. Amirite Tif?

I'll gladly admit to being mistaken when I'm shown to be so.

Not having my hair on fire over Trump being Trump isn't "being wrong" though, which is what the discussion has been about ITT the last dozen pages.

[Troy Loney]

There is this weird coalition of lefties like glen greenwald and generic right wing online thinker doing victory laps that trump losing didn’t result in the complete takedown of the us
Government. It’s also an extremely convenient argument because any point about how damage was done to some particular government function, is then lauded because government bad.

Come to think of it, it’s not really surprising how people whose argument tend to start and end with government bad, don’t mind Trump

[Viva la Ben]

Are we supposed to keep waiting?

[Dickie Dunn]

Once again, he’s correct. GSA, much like the media, does not determine who the next President will be. That’s what elections are for and he’s lost this one like 9 times by now.

[NTP66]

I like my Presidents who don't lose repeatedly.

[DigitalGypsy66]

That's been the best part of this, is that he loses again almost every day in tiny increments. One state certifies their votes one day. The next day the Secret Service starts operations planning for expanding protection services at Mar-a-Lago. The day after that, another legal challenge crushed in court, and so on.

[NTP66]

"79%" is trending on Twitter, in that 79% of his supporters think the election was stolen from him.

[Dickie Dunn]

And 100% of that 79% are morons.

[NTP66]

And 100% of that 79% are morons.

They're also still trying to work out that math...

[faftorial]

Read the comments on Breitbart and other sites and you'll see the calls for 2nd amendment remedies.

[Viva la Ben]

Yeah, Republicans are going to work with Biden.

[Sam's Drunk Dog]

But until some wacko gun nut goes on a shooting spree we are all just being alarmists.

[NTP66]

We have a plethora of thoughts and prayers ready to combat shooters.

[Viva la Ben]

Hopefully Trump is ignored by the Republican Party after the inauguration. Surely that will happen.

[Gaucho]

Gross.

Wow. The lack of self-awareness and humility coupled with the unmistakeable air of arrogance and condescension it takes to make a comment like this...and use the words prideful and boasting to describe the other people...is nothing short of astounding. Kudos, I guess.

It's almost like dissenting voices and opinions need to be silenced through mockery and shaming. There's no place for an open discussion, let alone a difference of opinion. Ignore the substance of what is being presented, and instead attack the integrity or intelligence of the people disagreeing with you.

Remind you of anyone?

I've seen a lot of good discourse here and have changed my own views on a number of issues after considering well reasoned points of view. Intermixed with that have been a couple of door stops that we have to work around to have any kind of meaningful conversation. I'm more inclined to unplug than put up walls.

The comment I made was in direct response to FR saying he is unaffected by thoughts and criticisms by others. His exact words were "I don't give a hoot about it." That's a pretty stark admission that he doesn't absorb other viewpoints and is incapable of reflecting on them in a meaningful way. It is a death knell for discourse and accurately describes how he carries himself. He's proud of it and I have no qualms about expressing my observation. Trump, nobody, FR are all of that same mindset that is so dangerous to progress.

As for your opinion of me, you're entitled to it but I'd wager it's not popularly held.

[Gaucho]

Biden wins Pennsylvania again.

[Dickie Dunn]

Biden wins Pennsylvania again.

70s Steelers, 80s 49ers, 90s Cowboys, 00s Patriots, Joe Biden in the 2020 Presidential Election. Legendary dynasties.

[MR25]

I wonder if Biden is tired of all this winning...

How did you pass law school if that's what you thought that is what I meant by that? Talk about seeing something you want to see.

It was pretty obviously referring to the personal attacks and passive aggressive haughtiness that gets passed off as argument. That is what "I don't give a hoot about".

Me, nobody, shad, NP (RIP), Guinness (RIP) get reemed and personally attacked constantly in these threads.

I don't give a hoot about it. This isn't a place to think anyone in here cares that much to make anything personal to begin with.
