IMO less people on this earth = better. Yes, I can be included, I don't gaf.
You're not wrong, but that doesn't change the fact that Trump's obstinacy and negligence regarding the pandemic resulted in it becoming an overly lengthened catastrophe (we're already on year two of our three week pandemic) that resulted in nothing but the losses of hundreds of thousands of lives that he could have prevented by being fucking rational.

Who knows, maybe he's in support of depopulation and eugenics like Bill Gates or maybe he didn't want to be called racist when he tried to shut down travel from "Chyna lol".

Adding in the "he's an irresponsible, selfish bag of dicks" option I implied, that makes three awful possibilities.
Either he's bad, he's bad or he's bad.

That's the single edgiest comment in this thread yet, and that's coming from me. :lol: I suppose extreme opinions come in all shapes and sizes. Please, substantiate. I'd love to hear what's the motivation behind that. My crystal ball tells me "overpopulation is bad for the planet", open gate number 3, I'm hoping to win the cruise.

Technically speaking, less people would result in substantially less damage to the planet.
However, HAVING X large quantity of people and then losing them to something that could have been avoided and/or diminished with simple sane behavior is not in any way good.

Competence is boring. Train-wrecks on the other hand...
Bing bong, naw I had a few drinks and thought riling up Lacius' and Plasmaster09's echo chamber would be fun.
So you hopped into the thread for the sole purpose of trolling people, also solely because you disagreed with their ideas and thus considered the novel concept of multiple people disagreeing with you in unison a form of echo chamber.
Such absolutely delightful contribution.

In all fairness, watching Joe is fascinating, he has great stories and great flubs. I don't mean it ironically either, his story about kids climbing his hairy legs had me in stitches, and his mumbling makes it all even better. Comedy being my chief life pursuit, if this presidency doesn't pan out well for America, it will at least be funny, which is all I could really hope for.

Dang it, I was counting my chickes before they hatched. No surprise cruise for me this year, but I'll get it right next time. :lol:

Trolling, no. I fully believe in what I said. Less people = better. I do laugh at your Trump derangement syndrome. He's out, do you not have anything better to talk about?

Fair point. Plus, for those that don't like full-blown cringe comedy, Biden's comedy of small errors is a nice substitution. I'm not a fan of it myself (something to do with how I process things and empathy and whatnot results in it being downright painful to watch), but Trump is such a human catastrophe that he crosses the line twice over and becomes funny again- but I can see why Biden would be amusing to watch.

Ah yes, TDS. A Trumper's favorite snarl word for when they've run out of 'arguments'. Just because Trump is out doesn't mean he's done or that we're done with him- I personally am not done with him until he's rotting in jail or has at least been prevented from running for any government position. Plus, we have to acknowledge the shameful past and use it to move forward- oh wait, Trump didn't want to do that either considering his 1776 Commission plan to forcibly re-whitewash history.

C'mon, use big words to be condescending to others.
At your sarcastic behest, I'll use small words for once.
Your argument is pointless, your ideas are braindead, your trolling is pathetic and your efforts to distract me are just plain stupid.
There. Was the vocab simple enough?

Now, now, kids - keep it clean in here, no fighting. I can ignore rides on Papa Foxi's back (although I do plan on sending receipts, I did say it's $5), I can't ignore members slinging insults - no need for that. Same with trolling - one cheeky quip once in a while to add some levity? Fine. Just don't make it a habit. Let's cut this one short before it turns into a fight.

TDS. An insult so lame it makes themselves sound bad. lol. Morons can't even get an insult right. Edit: Just like the "Grandpa/Sleepy Joe" lines, when he's less than 4 yrs older than Trump. Smfh.

Just thought of a cheeky quip (or more accurately, a cheeky descriptor of Trump): Voter Freud.
Inverted Oedipus complex ("I'd fuck my daughter if she wasn't my daughter") plus a knack for projecting.

Trump took everything about the border, including ICE, and made it worse. On top of trying to get rid of DACA. As for "open borders", I haven't seen any actual movement for this. In fact, the times I seen that statement the most, is from the people complaining about it. Not that it matters. Anything short of actually making an union like the EU, it is not going to happen.

ACA would have been a full on public option, if it didn't get blocked. Not that I don't see a problem of wanting better healthcare.

The whole country is slowly reversing their thoughts on the war on drugs. This isn't a bad thing either. While "defund the police" is a bad phase, no matter what people actually mean by that, reform needs to happen.

As for guns, not every gun owner is the same. Some want better gun laws for example.

I'd say defunding the police isn't a good option... in the long-term.
Perhaps "reform the police" would be a better way to put it. Employ far greater requirements to actually become a police officer (as of now, you aren't required to have spent as time training as you do to become a barber IIRC, which is just not okay), emphasize non-violent conflict resolution more, and until said reform has been shown to work, don't provide them with as much funding and weapons.
It's like a child having their allowance revoked until they learn to use it better because the thing they used it for was crack cocaine.

On an unrelated note:
Me, in a pattern of getting annoyed at the troll-of-the-week but simultaneously invigorated since this thread is somehow the most genuinely worthwhile and fruitful political discussion I've had in a while:
