It's interesting how people who are into crazy bullshit are way more likely to use quotation marks in a really weird, puzzling way. You know, because Bruce Lee doesn't need a "professional" record to be proven as the best martial artist ever. I don't think I've ever seen more bizarre use of that particular punctuation than among nutjobs. It's really characteristic, in fact.

I dunno. "Bruce Lee" really doesn't "require" a "professional" "record". He's "all" the "professional" "record" one "needs".

How delusional does one have to be to think that dissolving organ tissue is a legitimate method of treating or preventing cancer?

I dunno. I use BS pretty aggressively in my day-to-day life and it's gotten me this far. Won Balderdash tonight and everything. Not to mention blowing up that death star on several occasions.


Just to avoid the dreaded double post...

This actually makes sense if you understand "gay" and "lesbian" as symmetrical, especially if you know that people who identify as "male lesbians" are always straight men.

And given that the acronym "LGBT" implies a symmetry and exclusivity between the terms, I do not think it is all that unreasonable for someone who does not know many out gay people believe that they are symmetrical terms.

I dunno. I grew up automatically knowing that lesbian was just another word for gay, like fag and queer. And I didn't know that many people who were gay at the time. At least not out of the closet to me gay.

This is how I explain it to people: the word "man" can be used to refer to humanity as a whole (men and women) or just men, while "woman" is only used to refer to women. Same way the word "gay" can be used to refer to either homosexuals as a whole or gay men, while the word "lesbian" is only used to refer to gay women.

Would it kill people to not be uneducated? If people would just shut up and learn things we wouldn't have to put up which up such an awful blight as the slightest bit of ignorance. The knowledge is out there, but people are too goddamn incurious. Why can't people just shut up and immediately adapt to things or situations they were previously unaware of with no internal conflict whatsoever? Me no teach, only they learn.

Yes, I know that, but I still don't think that not knowing that is a sign if idiocy. Ignorance, sure, but not the militant stupidity I expect from this thread.

I am disappointed that DP has apparently passed up on the chance to comment on that unusual spelling of "epitome."

On another note, JulyJack shared this on Discord. I am screenshotting it because I do not trust the author not to delete it.

What you cannot see without clicking but D'Souza would have is that not only is the twat he is responding to named "ethnarch_", but he uses an avatar with "America First" on it.

Have I told y'all there was a time I actually liked and admired Dinesh D'Souza? It lasted from the time I read his first book Illiberal Education until the time I saw him speak and realized that about five years after he wrote it, he jumped off the crazy cliff and rode a rocket-powered loony lander into Crackpot Canyon.
