SpikeTalon replies on Jun 10, 2020:
I wouldn't have minded it as much if she at least had the decency to join the group first. Now, if PawBullets had shared this post to the general feed, that would be different, at that point anything goes. Personally, even though there's a glitch that allows non-members to comment in groups, I avoid doing that intentionally. The part that gets me is, in the past Kathleen was one of them who had complained about trolling in groups, then she does this... I'm not nearly as ban happy as I used to be, but there are some members in this group that joined precisely because they only wanted to be in the company of like minds, would they be asking for too much? Just in case you hadn't noticed (insert some sarcasm there), you are no longer banned from this group. You probably weren't aware of this, but at one point the guy who hosts the gun control group (Mike Flora) was a member in this group, and I didn't bother banning him as he was good enough to let a few of the gun rights group members into his group, so I thought in doing so would keep things fair. One of my fellow group members turned against me and argued over Flora being in this group, and that member eventually blocked me and still has me blocked. Thought it worth pointing out that on the sister site to this one (no, not Humanist) I have zero members blocked or banned.
Very effective!

@VeronikaAnnJ Thank you for the kind words, much appreciated. As I've said so many times in the past, there's no shortage of "ists" "ives" and "isms" in the world all of which I think are meant to keep us divided. Libertarian is really the best word to describe myself overall, but at times I don't even feel like associating with any descriptive word/title. Given what I went through in the past with the spam private messages, I'm not about to post photos of myself on this site. Oh boy, sorry to hear about that with the older dude, no shortage of creeps and pervs on here. You did the best thing by blocking him. I'm no exception when it comes to provoking statements, have gotten into heated arguments with other members, and now for the most part I haven't been doing alot of political posts as those kinds of posts seem to bring out the worst in some folks.

SpikeTalon replies on May 21, 2020:
@Bierbasstard Okay... but I've yet to witness where two wrongs (or simply two people arguing) ever made a positive impact though. It's best to either ignore or block those who rant on. What you perceive to be that of ranting or lack of dialogue may not really be such, but maybe just someone trying to demonstrate a point is all. I myself have been trying to give more benefit of the doubt to some of those who normally I'd consider to be argumentative, and by doing so I realized that not all of them are spewing propaganda, they raise valid points at time regardless if previously I may not have agreed on said points. The part about certain men being victimized by the system itself is a topic perhaps for a stand alone post, and a complex issue it is. Thank you for responding to my comment.

SpikeTalon replies on May 21, 2020:
@Bierbasstard Being he doesn't see eye to eye with your views, that then makes him a fucking asshole? Remember, you lose the argument every time you hurl insults first. Not everyone is here to date, and additionally not everyone is vain enough to think that others want to even see their face. Admin doesn't/hasn't shown his face, is he wrong for doing so? Brian... this site is one big echo chamber for secular individuals, and you yourself had once told me that you didn't care for another site I had mentioned due to their being alot of religious folks on there. How's that for wanting to expand your horizons? See, this is why I had taken a long break from this site, people pointing the finger at others when they in reality are no better themselves. Every day on here I see the same damn thing, members downing views they don't agree with knowing full well the majority on here will back them up regardless if they are right or wrong. I'd contend we are all capable of ranting about, and is there anything wrong with that, we all could stand to vent a little sometimes. I don't care for Trump as an individual either, but do you even have any idea how many on this site rant and rave over him on a daily basis? But that sort of ranting about doesn't bother you though I'm sure as said ranting goes in line with your own views, hence it's not annoying to you. If honesty is your goal (and I'd like to think it is), both political extremes have a chip on their shoulder. Both sides accuse one another that their evidence is anecdotal, and that's why it seems at times we can't have any decent conversations in this country, everyone is locked into their own views. Just because someone is against modern day feminism, does not automatically mean they hate all women. The kicker there is, that alot of women are embarrassed by modern day feminism, men aren't the only ones who are. Most of my female family members from my mother to distant aunts are embarrassed by the feminist movement, and every single one of them are registered Democrats by the way. My point is, while you were downing TheInterlooper for perceived "red pill propaganda", you did absolutely nothing to advance the conversation by adding insults in the equation, and we're right back to square one. That to me suggests that you have no desire to hear the other side out, as you had suggested we should do. When any member on here resorts to such, guys like the author of this very post get validated when they say members can be close minded, for sadly he would be correct about such. By the way, what I just mentioned is not meant to be insulting, it was meant to get your gears turning a little more, as I'd like to think you're better than just hurling insults around. At times I'm appalled at the needless infighting ...

If Trump doesn't push for opening things up soon, come November the Democrats could argue that he didn't do enough to help the economy, so I'd say that works both ways. Nevermind the fact that alot of people who were laid off during the pandemic willingly want to return to work in order to provide ...
SpikeTalon replies on May 3, 2020:
@snytiger6 That's certainly a key factor, but there is no shortage of people in this country with chronic illnesses who are not poor though, and I'm one of those who would fall under that category. New Jersey is a reasonably wealthy state minus some cities such as Camden or Newark, and that state experienced more deaths than Pennsylvania, even though PA is a much larger state. So there are other factors that need to be taken into consideration.

"Makin' It" is a 1979 pop song performed by David Naughton, his first and, to date, only musical release. It was the theme song for the television series of the same name, in which Naughton starred. It was written by Freddie Perren and Dino Fekaris, the team also responsible for Gloria Gaynor's #1 ...

@spiketalon says the man who didn't actually read my comment which was clearly marked as sarcasm nor my previous post which you mischaracterized. If you want to destroy an argument you'll have to do more than just build a strawman and set it on fire.
SpikeTalon replies on May 2, 2020:
That's why I said what I did, your comment was sarcastic. Your command of the obvious is... less than stunning. I didn't mischaracterize your post either, just went by the very words you used in said post. As for the setting a strawman on fire part, I'll just leave that for you to do, as you appear to do that just fine.

SpikeTalon replies on May 2, 2020:
@prometheus Not exactly voluntary, you mentioned above they would be required to leave. Still think bans of that sort are creepy. In the US the majority are religious unfortunately, imagine how you'd feel if they made it compulsory for anyone who identifies as atheist/non-religious to immediately vacate the country? I'd be outraged over such.

@prometheus Just because we already live in a somewhat ban happy society, does not automatically mean that's a good thing. We despise the banners, yet are so quick to adopt their ways at the first chance.

Oh come on, Spike! The irrationality is coming from Trump himself. Loyalty is a good thing but not when it supports almost incredible ignorance.
SpikeTalon replies on Apr 28, 2020:
I'm not concerned about loyalty, how some folks on here treat others over political views is what I'm concerned about. When it comes to politicians themselves, I have no loyalty, my loyalty lies in individual liberty.

SpikeTalon replies on Apr 25, 2020:
@Flowerwall I can agree with you that it would be more ideal to protest in a car, if one felt the need to protest.

SpikeTalon replies on Apr 25, 2020:
@Flowerwall It's interesting to note that most of the states with the highest number of documented cases of infection are states that lean to the left politically speaking and that of which a majority of the citizens are not out protesting, yet that didn't minimize new infection cases. Point is, we should be questioning just how effective these lockdown measures really are. We shouldn't arrive to any conclusion absent of evidence. I also suspect that if most of those protesters were to be tested and the results negative, people would still be complaining that they are ignoring government orders, because people need something to complain about. Fear can be a powerful motivator, and fear is certainly in play in regards to the lockdown. Also keep in mind quite a few of those protesting just want to go back to work in order to support their families, as they don't fancy living off of government stimulus checks. It's never bad to question things.
