@BDair The standard for dissemination of information regarding the safety and efficacy of vaccines is publication of peer-reviewed articles in reputable scientific journals. Your post falls well short of that standard.

Flyingsaucesir replies on Oct 17, 2022:

It the same thing with the immigration issue. The system is broken, it needs revamping, but Republicans either vote down all proposals or don't even let them come up for a vote. They would rather have the broken system because it provides them with a set of talking points to beat Democrats over the head with. The best word to describe it is cynical.

Flyingsaucesir replies on Oct 17, 2022:

@Trajan61 @JackPedigo Hey I tend to agree with the "only the criminals" argument; I think there is some truth to it in the context if the USA, at least in the short term. But the problem is not all that simple. There is evidence that stricter gun controls reduce gun violence. In fact, no other developed country has looser gun laws or as much gun violence as the USA. Therefore it is mighty presumptuous of you to tell a concerned citizen (one who appreciates nuance that apparently is lost on you) that he should he should abandon his homeland just because he doesn't agree with you. Your arrogance is noted. Now why not climb down off your high horse?

How to cause inflation: 1. On the basis of a lie, and with borrowed money, start an unnecessary war in Iraq (Bush) 2. Pour blood and treasure down two rathole, unwinnable wars for 20 years (Bush, Obama, Trump) 2. Blow up the deficit by giving huge tax breaks to corporations and the wealthiest individuals (Trump) 3. Totally mishandle the greatest pandemic in 100 years, stall supply chains (Trump) 4. Encourage Russian imperialist to invade a sovereign European democracy, cut grain and oil supplies (Trump)

Flyingsaucesir replies on Oct 7, 2022:

@CuddyCruiser My take on Antifa and BLM is that their main goal is to call attention to systemic injustice in America. They are simply responding to a long history of oppression. They are unfairly painted by the alt right/MAGA crowd as being violent terrorists. It's true that some protests have turned violent, but there are always a few hooligans in the crowd, no matter what the ideology. By and large, BLM protests are peaceful.

Flyingsaucesir replies on Oct 3, 2022:

@Trajan61 The photo ID Republican talking point is a red herring, for many reasons. 1. Election fraud was practically nil in the last election and in previous elections. 2. Photo ID is not going to stop somebody from filling out their dead parent's ballot. There were numerous instances of this on both sides, mostly by white Republican men. 3. Democrats are not opposed to requiring photo ID, just don't limit it to only one type that is difficult for a lot of poor or elderly or student citizens to obtain. Which is exactly what Republicans want to do, because the whole point is to disenfranchise would-be Democratic voters.

@TheMiddleWay And there are many more complications. For instance, should someone descended from a Union soldier, maybe even one injured or killed in battle, pay the same amount as someone descended from a Rebel soldier, or from a slave owner? Should someone who immigrated to the USA (or their offspring) in the past 50 years pay the same amount as someone descended from the first white settlers? I don't see any way to unravel all the knots. Hell, we can't even give cash to struggling people and businesses in a pandemic without getting taken to the cleaners by fraudsters and scam artists.

TheMiddleWay comments on Sep 25, 2022:

Fray, you give us a sum for what those reparations are, tell us what our individual contribution is, and when we see you've paid your fair share against our collective responsibility, then we will pay mour fair share towards our collective responsibility as well. We will follow your lead, Fray, ...

Flyingsaucesir replies on Sep 25, 2022:

And what form should these reparations take? Cash payments to individuals would probably not work out equitably. What about people of mixed race? What about Native Americans descended from tribes that collaborated with whites? What about Black folks descended from free Black folks (e.g. Queen Latifa)? Reparations should probably be designed to lift up entire communities, and in so doing, bring along the whole country as well. So rather than individual cash payments, make investments in infrastructure, in environmental cleanup and protection, education, job training, healthcare, etc.

There is a continuous scale. Trump is at the extreme 'shitty, power-grabbing, lying, criminal asshole' end of the scale - Biden is at a far more acceptable position. It's unfortunate when the choice you're given is between 'catastrophically terrible' and 'merely mediocre' - but when that IS ...

Flyingsaucesir replies on Sep 22, 2022:

My motivations for posting this were as follow: Originally the core of it was a reply to a tag to a comment in another post. After I composed it (which took time and effort) I thought it would make a good post in itself. It's a lot of information that we don't see all together in one place every day. And this is not even a comprehensive list. I would like to see what others may add to it. And I would be delighted if they would in turn use it in arguments with Trump supporters among their own family and friends. (Trump and many of his supporters - including my interlocutor in the other post - are making threats ranging from rioting to civil war if Trump is prosecuted. I would much rather put in the time and effort to reason with them than to shoot them.) Finally, I wanted the person who accused me of being a moron for supporting Biden to see how that would boomerang; how his wild accusation would result in the wider circulation of a devastating argument against Trump and for Biden.
