Where is the outrage from the lefties over horse mounted deterrents?

So is your whataboutery.

eyyy imgflip can't admit to having double standards. can't debate for a dime

No, that's why you try to change the subject.

"No"

ahahahahaha
people who begin their arguments with "no" are one of the most childish types of people out there.

"No, that's why you try to change the subject"

:)

So, which word did you start your "argument" with?

Hint: It has two letters and begins with an "N".

that's called quoting, my guy

I call it "shooting oneself in the foot".

And, despite my answer starting with "No", I maintain it is correct.

What in blazes are you rambling about, kid?

You say conservatives try to bend stuff... Then use "mostly peaceful" talking about riots that did hundreds of millions of dollars in damage.

Actual violent actions.... Compared to truckers blowing their horns. How many people were injured in the BLM riots? Quite a few. How many were injured by police during those riots? A small percentage of those injured.

But truckers blowing their horns for freedom against oppression... Well now them cops injuring people is ok because it fits your CNN Buffet of information.

Then you ask someone "hows that for whataboutism".... When your entire argument is whataboutism.

Grow Up, kid.

"You say conservatives try to bend stuff... Then use "mostly peaceful" talking about riots that did hundreds of millions of dollars in damage."

Most BLM protests, more than 93% in fact, were peaceful, and the only violence that happened was isolated blocks in the remaining 7%, of which a more than significant numbers of them, were reactions to police escalation and infiltrated provocateurs.

"But truckers blowing their horns for freedom against oppression... Well now them cops injuring people is ok because it fits your CNN Buffet of information"

The vast majority of people in that convoy aren't even truckers and they're blowing their horns, blocking a country's capitol city and harassing neighbors and homeless shelters, to bitch and moan about an oppression that only exists in their brainwashed heads.... Well now cops are doing their job with a lot more delicacy than they showed up to left wing protests, and now you accuse me of CNN because you got nothing else.

Hoaxes, lies, distortion and flat out personal attacks that don't add to the discussion because they're not a literary resource, they're your arguments.

I'd tell you to grow up as a simple comeback, but then again, it might be too late for you.

So percentages are ok when it's a mostly peaceful protest... But when only 1/11th of 1 percent of the world population died with COVID... Then percentage gets ignored right?

So since percentage is your thing...

BLM riots 100s of millions in damages - is about roughly 10 million times more money in damages than the trucker strike and Jan 6th combined.

You say hoaxes but still call the riots mostly peaceful protests. Ignorance is bliss I here

Because they were mostly peaceful Ignorance is bliss indeed.

"But when only 1/11th of 1 percent of the world population died with COVID... Then percentage gets ignored right?"

Did you forget, since percentages seem to be your thing, that 1/10th of those deaths, has happened in the US alone? the country with the worst response to Covid precisely, for allowing people like you to be taken as seriously as the scientific community, and this goes way back to global warming.

Did you forget those deaths happened with measures in place? imagine what would happen if a country wasn't consistent with their measures, they'd have the highest death tolls per capita, specially were local governments are allowed to not take measures seriously.

Well imagine no more, that'll be the country championing antivaxx ideology, inconsistent in health and safety measures/vaccination levels throughout its territory because of a childish* understanding, of the relationship between local and national levels of territorial administration, which is, not coincidentally, the one with the worst death toll.

*It's kind of expected in such a young and impetuous nation, just not at this level after almost two centuries and a half. Funny it is between 2 and 2 and a half years old that most domestic dogs begin to grow out of adolescence. I wonder if Arnold J. Toynbee was influenced by dog breeding while writing his works on Rome's decadence in partic, and the life cycle of civilizations and empires XD.

Jokes aside and BTW, there's more people that died of Covid without getting tested, than those who died because of comorbidities, simply because on top of an already existing shortage of testing kits, they're obviously prioritized for the living.

You talk math but math without tangible reality behind it, is just a bunch of numbers.

CONservative education policies and capitalist mass media, are the main driving forces behind the dumbing down of America, while you project those same failings onto those whom are resisting that very assault on public education, accusing them of your own failings with yet more Goebbelsian projection.

You're the one ignoring almost 6 million deaths (the sheer irony), which are only the official estimates (I'd like to know where you got that 1/11th of 1% of almost 8 billion now)

100s of millions in damages is pocket change, why don't you join leftist protests in favor of printer go brrrrrr to help working people so there's less crime and cops are needed less?

Lmao - grow up kid, grow up.

We can only hope time and experience will make Petitissimo grow up and accept reality.

That's it bruh, let the bliss of purposeful ignorance to wash all over you and be absorbed through every pore.

I'd tell you to grow up yourself, but maybe you're too far gone.

Good luck, you're gonna need it more than me.

You know, I believe I ought to give you some advice.

If you want to convince people of something, you should use as many words as possible, and especially as many "big" words as you can think of. That makes you look smart and educated, and therefore super convincing.

Also, don't forget to insult your opponents by insinuating that they are stupid and ignorant and immature. It makes you look really superior.

If you doubt me, look to Hillary Clinton's successful campaign in 2016 where she really convinced the hillbillies, deplorables, and the great unwashed in general that she was the better candidate for the office as President of the United States.

Don't thank me. It's advice I gladly extend to leftists.

Sorry if what I'm explain is too complicated that it can't be dumbed down to a single sentence.

And if I do, you'll start asking dumb questions and posting conspiracy theories, therefore forcing me to explain things further, then you being so generous to "gladly extend some advice to leftists".

Well I hope you also get advice from leftists too (I gladly extend any kind of advice to anyone regardless of ideology, I mean, aren't you happy with politicizing enzymes? do you really have to politicize everything?)

"If you doubt me, look to Hillary Clinton's successful campaign in 2016 where she really convinced the hillbillies, deplorables, and the great unwashed in general that she was the better candidate for the office as President of the United States. "

L, M, A, and f**king O.

Those people were calling themselves "hillbillies and deplorables", already predisposed to vote against her irregardless, their noisy minority status irrelevant due to disproportionate electoral power by a whole host of Republican dirty tactics that amount to legalized voter fraud, and the Electoral College, there's nothing on Earth she could've done to earn their vote and you know it.

Like I said, here's my "leftist" advice: There's a limit to how much you can simplify something, a threshold that varies depending on the innate complexity of the topic, and once you cross it, you'll only convince those who already want to be convinced.

I don't want people to be convinced by the way I expressed stuff, I want them to convince themselves by the stuff itself, because caring more about delivery than content is one of the reasons that people are so susceptible to marketing campaigns and well spoken political promises.

The society of spectacle buddy, you can't just give everything prepackaged and rehearsed, because I trust in people's intelligence more than that.

What you're asking me to do is precisely, the thing that Jordan Peterson accused climate scientists of doing, in that cringe af video he's got with Benny Tetiño at that coffee shop, which is not including EVERY SINGLE THING EVER, in predictive models because if a model isn't 100% infallible then why even try?

Damned if I explain stuff damned if I don't explain stuff.

I'm starting to think you don't really care about stuff

"The society of spectacle buddy, you can't just give everything prepackaged and rehearsed, because I trust in people's intelligence more than that."

Being demeaning to your betters will certainly make the scales fall from their eyes.

Being respectful to them, however, will only make them disbelieve you.

So please keep writing essay after essay. Some day you'll make us all see the true light, Mr. "Big Guy".

Being called "Mr. Big Guy" by a guy that unironically nicknames themselves after one of the best known of Randian heroes...

To die at the hands of the God Emperor of self-awareness...

JFC are you for real?

By the way, regarding the word "buddy":

We aren't, and unless you learn to behave in a civilized fashion, we won't be.

Trumprinter gave trillions to companies that fired people anyway, and instead used the money to buy their own stocks back, avoiding more taxes and artificially inflating profits to attract more investors, rinse and repeat, and you didn't see any inflation skyrocketing, no loaf of bread being paid for with a loan...

That was the financial equivalent of pouring French perfume on a pig sty so, why would a UBI of 2K a month plus better social services like public healthcare without profit motive, which BTW is less expensive both in taxes and out of pocket, be any worse?

You think regular people are somehow genetically different than business owners and that somehow, makes them undeserving of getting back what's ultimately their own money and exploited surplus value?

Did you macroeconomics under neoliberal orthodoxy are a collective hallucination?

Did you know my social security paycheck deduction alone, pays for free healthcare and education and, on tippy top o' that, unemployment?

Have fun living in a country made to try and scam you at every turn.

"Did you know my social security paycheck deduction alone, pays for free healthcare and education and, on tippy top o' that, unemployment?"

Actually those who work pay for that paycheck. And for the computer on which you while away your time making memes and writing silly comments.

Lmao, no, I'm paying for it, the unemployment I'm getting right now, is part of what I've paid in taxes, given back to me in better public services than even some of the things that you still gotta pay for, like exhorbitant drug prizes.

I'm talking about all the paychecks me, and every Spaniard has earned in their lives for decades XD.

I'm talking about social democracy, a grown up economic system that makes more than yours and with less, I'm talking about the almost alien to you, concept of European efficiency XD.

Oh, yes, we also have billionaires gaming the system, but they'd wish they could get away with a fraction of what your archetypical American crooked business does, even those like Amancio Ortega and the Mercadona guy.

American Big Pharma companies are selling drugs in bulk to my government, at a prize that covers production and research costs while yearning a handsome profit, meanwhile, they take advantage that your government doesn't give two shits about your health to gouge you up as much as they can get away with.

Yeah, keep on trying to silence me by making my comments less visible, it only proves my points even more XD.

... and of those somewhat lacking in the ability to respond much anything beyond scratching their head.

Something you know all about
