Gina Carano is a bully.
Oh? Who did she bully?

Got any evidence of this?

Or is this just more rhetoric?

Party 1: Let's create socialised healthcare and make sure everyone has decent access to medical provision.
Party 2: We're not paying taxes to save the lives of poor people who can't afford their own healthcare.

So, which of those do you think shows more respect for life?
Also Party 1: Except people who refuse to do as we say they don't deserve healthcare. Oh and I'm pretty sure there will be a mass rebellion against the healthcare thing once they realise just how many people in rural communities in the USA were just coping with stuff day to day and only getting healthcare when things got really bad because of the costs.

Apparently The Gamers™️ are big mad over the new Saints Row game for not being Saints Row 2

Just some levity over something that doesn't actually matter. Let's argue about pineapple on pizza

Pineapple on pizza is fine. The Hawaiian and Super Supreme pizzas would not be the same without it.

It's generally wrong to call anyone evil for doing what they think is right, because they're probably not evil. Parties like the National Socialists are rare.
But what's the difference between a person doing what they think is right and a National Socialist doing what they think is right?

If what you're saying is that there really is an objective standard of evil that applies to national socialists, then surely the problem isn't with calling people evil for their political positions, the problem is with doing that and being wrong, correct?

But what if someone else thinks that you're wrong, and that their definition of evil is right?

It would be like if you went up to a random person on the street and called them a murderer. It's possible that you could actually be correct. You could have found the zodiac killer by accident. But you aren't likely to be right.
Hypothetically, what if you went up to someone who was standing over a freshly stabbed corpse with a bloody knife and called them a murderer? Would that still be wrong?

I am not saying that the former automatically leads to the latter, just that the former is an essential component of the latter.
Why does that matter?

Is it wrong to own a car because cars are an essential component of hit and runs?

No, it is not always wrong to kill people.
Then is it always wrong to wish someone dead?

"wishing covid death to conscious spreaders" is a direct quote from post 618
I know. But it seems like that might be a reference to the position put forward in other posts, no?

Yes, it automatically indicates a callous disregard for human life.
But actually killing people doesn't, necessarily?

Why?

Killing should be your last resort, and not something you should ever want to do.
Why not?

Besides, what about wishing for someone to die? That wouldn't be wanting to kill them, would it. It would just be them dying. Is wishing for that still a callous disregard for human life?

It's not for me to say if the world would truly be better off without them. One would have to be omniscient to know that.
Isn't that true of almost everything?

How can you know whether or not a national socialist is evil without being omniscient?

Why are you less capable of knowing this than anything else?

This is literally just completely made up.

Oh and I'm pretty sure there will be a mass rebellion against the healthcare thing once they realise just how many people in rural communities in the USA were just coping with stuff day to day and only getting healthcare when things got really bad because of the costs.
Except a nationalised healthcare system would also be significantly cheaper for those people. As you know, the US spends more per capita (and receives less value for money) for its healthcare system than, say, the UK.

In a "shadow docket" too, meaning that nobody had to show up and actually argue why the executive branch didn't have this power through the constitution.

They just get to say so. You know, judicial activism, but in a way conservatives like: hurting poor people

This is what corporate monopolies get you in a nutshell.

Are you just posting random shit in these threads as some kind of satire of how woefully off-topic and idiotic they are? Because if so I respect that.

Well the title is funny events in an anti woke world. So I assume Madden would fit given the dumbster fire Corpo EA is.

Is there healthcare that stops applying when ''people don't do as pro healthcare people day?''. I don't think I ever heard of a rule in Obama care where you lose if if you're a Republican, nor do the countries with real health care system has rules that you don't get it if people don't like you.

He's just mad that people like me stopped feeling sympathy for the anti-vax rally organizer and *checks notes* three anti-vax radio hosts that died of Covid 19 this week.

And I would like to point out that even if short on sympathy for them, people like you did not suggest that they should be denied healthcare.

Unlike these kooks themselves, who (assuming usual Republican sentiment) would be more than happy to deny it to a huge proportion of countrymen. But that's what I mean by hypocrisy: these moral frauds who want ***** and moan about people not showing appropriate respect for life, whilst at the same time defending those who fight to deny healthcare to millions.

No it's a little thing called consistency, some people might want to give it a try some time.
Yes. They should. Look in the mirror for one such example.

Oh and I'm pretty sure there will be a mass rebellion against the healthcare thing once they realise just how many people in rural communities in the USA were just coping with stuff day to day and only getting healthcare when things got really bad because of the costs.
You'd think that.

But as someone who is and has grown up in said rural communities that you speak of, I can tell you it's not likely. See, people where I live are more worried about trans people using our bathrooms, genderless potato heads and Getting God Back in Schools. You know, the important things.
