Amen!

Amen? Why not just pray?

I believe there is a God but he never listens.

[–] BillHicksFan (10717) 4 years ago

so justice is deaf, dumb, and blind?

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) 4 years ago

'Justice' is a dream
I'd say that God and justice are separate things, and a lot of that stuff is bullshit anyway

Why do little babies get cancer..?

How do we allow rapists their freedom after 4 years..?

Sleep with a gun and figure God is on vacation and there are a lot of loonies out there

reply

[–] BillHicksFan (10717) 4 years ago

yeah, I definitely think "god" is bullshit. Conversations about it are just as dumb :)

I wonder how many people would have invented it.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) 4 years ago

I guess it's all subjective

I figure God left his little ant farm and train set years ago

We check the door and window locks, turn on the yard lights and sleep near loaded Iron

If the worst happens we leave a pile of bodies and one hell of a story

Heres the thing, 10 months ago this board was full of people saying "the vaccine makes you immune and if you don't agree you're a kook"

Now we've learnt that even double jabbed people are getting it, in some countries vaccinated people account for more new cases than non vaccinated people.

So now even the die hard vaccine fans accept that it doesn't given you immunity, however they have moved the goal posts and they say "but it does make death less likely and the symptoms less severe"

1. the mortality rate globally is still at 2%, the same as less year, and 2, you'd need years of data in order to show it made the symptoms less severe.

Before the vaccine the narrative was that covid wasn't much different to the flu or a bad hangover, now they want us to believe that without the vaccine we'll suffer an agonizing death thanks to this killer virus.

in reality the vaccine has changed nothing, it's changed zero. in many european countries there are more new cases registered everyday than ever.

but yeah i agree with you on the great reset.

[–] StoneKeeper (28408) 4 years ago

I DONT GIVE A FUCK!!! All I see is bla bla bla. This is YOUR opinion. YOUR point of view.

Take any subject and take 10 different people and they might have 10 different ideas.

Some people want to get vaccinated now some people wanna get vaccinated later some people won’t get vaccinated, now what??? NOW MUTHERFUCKING WHAT????

God help me, I just can’t…

[–] moviechatterer (16326) 4 years ago

bla bla bla. This is YOUR opinion

its true that the inane rantings of crazy people (both for and against no doubt) are opinion

But whether or not the vaccine reduces your chances of getting it / spreading it / dying from it
are not opinion, they are measurable facts

reply

[–] StoneKeeper (28408) 4 years ago

I do understand the nuance.

But still, people need to stop force feeding their opinions related to those facts.

But that’s just MY OPINION! Lol

And yesterday I was fed up when I wrote this. I find my post a bit harsh today but will stand by it, like any other comments I made before.

reply

[–] moviechatterer (16326) 4 years ago

even double jabbed people are getting it

yeah , and even people wearing seatbelts sometimes get hurt in a car crash.

It does not logically follow that the seatbelts are a scam made up by "big pharma" in cahoots with Bill gates to implant microchips in your brain.

reply

[–] jimmyjuliano12 (342) 4 years ago

are you stupid?

the concept of a vaccine is immunity, a seatbelt doesn't promise that. you fucking idiot

[–] TriumphReq (1857) 4 years ago

I dunno cases are sticking around below 10,000 in my state so the vaccine must be working.

reply

[–] [deleted] 4 years ago

yes.
i wish moderators would be a little active with those threads.
or just make them go away.
shuffle them off to politics, preferably.

i don't want moderation here to be heavy-handed or anything - that's bad - but no moderation at all is worse.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) 4 years ago

I hold you in high regard damo and I don't disagree that the Covid threads should piss off ASAP

However, a lot of our posters seem very worried and GD is just for that sort of thing I guess...it is annoying though!!

This Covid talk does tend to devolve into politics way too frequently and The Mod Squad are probably busy with really serious name calling on the stupid politics board

reply

[–] [deleted] 4 years ago

thank you - same to you.

i guess there's no math equation or formula that gives the right answer to handling some of these things.

but when someone creates three threads by my count the same day- the same guy who's burst into this thread with more of the same - i think you cross some boundary from voicing an opinion to being an absolute jerk. that guy and his posts absolutely reek of jerkiness to me.

it's mostly that one guy who's being a jerk, and i wish a moderator would clamp down on him.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) 4 years ago

The Mods are unpaid and busy with their real lives

I never block and never report (I have a weird thing about this) but we all quickly learn who is not worth responding to

Same.

[–] davodikum (6212) 4 years ago

I reported someone once when they only had one post and it was to what looked like some dodgy link. But other than that, I don't block or report.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) 4 years ago

Some regulars seem to do this, nothing wrong with it

reply

[–] sslssg (35198) 4 years ago

I don't block and in 4 years I have reported 2 times. One was a private message from someone who was spamming everyone, and the other was a very vile message that was threatening.

reply

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78608) 4 years ago

We all handle idiots differently
Nothing wrong with any method

I report all the dodgy one post wonders. We don’t need that crap stinking up the place.

Oh but I’m not just talking on this site.

It’s at my work it’s in my family it’s with my friends it’s everywhere.

I just can’t.

I’m like, fuck everyone right now.

[–] jimmyjuliano12 (342) 4 years ago

then don't make threads about it you loon, talk about something else.

I had to vent bro, I didn’t talk about it. Wake up

[–] samoanjoes (58613) 4 years ago

This is why I'm not liberal or conservative. There's too much finger pointing.

Same. I take my beliefs a-la-carte. Also don't ignore nor report.

[–] samoanjoes (58613) 4 years ago

You see what I mean about fingering? There's too much fingering going on in this place and its reached the climax.

I suppose a polite handshake is out of the question..?

As long as you're not KOWALSKI I'm not terribly concerned😁

There's not enough fingering my friend. If the climax was getting reached people would be a lot more pleasant around here.

[–] StoneKeeper (28408) 4 years ago

You are touching a sensible cord

You make a valid point. So... pick you up at 7:00?

[–] TriumphReq (1857) 4 years ago

That's still a liberal stance. Or more accurately a Pyrrhonist one. But totally contradicts your real behavior on here.

Pyrrhonism was a form of extreme skepticism which held that judgment must be suspended about whether it is possible to know true reality. Pyrrhonism asserted that suspension of judgment (epoché, a Greek term which refers to a cessation) about the true nature of reality leads to serenity and equanimity (ataraxia) about what constitutes truth or falsehood.

The great reset is a gigantic toilet bowel.

reply

[–] TriumphReq (1857) 4 years ago

Sounds like a big made up fraud to me.

What's being reset? You mean another recession? Was the recession of 2008 a reset too? What about 9/11 and all the BS we've had to put up with since. Was that a reset? Sounds like tin foil hat garbage to be with no clear definition.

[–] StoneKeeper (28408) 4 years ago

The fires, the storms, racism, the politic, the environment, the wars, the conflicts, the virus, the economy…

Name it. EVERYTHING is going to shits mate. Better start praying you will still be here in 15 years.
