    I take it your life is getting even shittier considering the amount of dreck you have been posting lately. It must really grind your gears being this helpless, huh?

  • May 06, 2026 @ 02:27pm

    And yet you couldn't stop yourself from caring so much that you just had to post a response. You just can't stop lying, not even to yourself, can you?

    All I wanted
    That right there, that's your problem. You wanted something, in this instance everything served on a platter according to your expectations. When that didn't happen, you started throwing around words like jingoistic and xenophobic and making stupid hyperbolic statements, even though you knew what the article contained. It's still a you problem and always was, you are investing an inordinate of time to "prove you are right" when in reality all you have are an opinion on a single headline which everyone else seem to find acceptable.

    I’m mostly reacting to your response, which is to insult me for questioning a xenophobic framing that misidentifies the article in question.
    So it's xenophobic to have a headline that is 100% factual?
    Do I sincerely need to read a textbook excerpt in the role of headlines, how they can frame an article, and how they are often skimmed by people?
    I'm pretty sure this is a "you" problem and I'm guessing you must apoplectic reading any kind of headline and then finding out the article contains so much more information. How dreadful.
    Let me ask you: if the headline is unimportant, then why have it?
    Let me ask you: When did anyone say the headline was unimportant?
    So why do you have headlines?
    So people like you have something to complain about, the rest of us understand just fine that a headline just sets the broad context or is made to entice readers. If it is so troublesome and difficult for you to even read the first paragraphs of an article, you better just stick to the headlines and skip reading any article all together.

    No shitlib ever gets to say shit like that again.
    I guess you want to censor those you think are "shitlibs", ie anyone saying something you don't like. If you had a big red button that said "Censor" and you press it to censor people you didn't like, you'd sit deeply on it and never get up.

    …which is why I’m kind of scared that this guy could actually be Donald Trump.
    Not enough word salad and TACO.

  • May 05, 2026 @ 01:26am

    Are you seriously claiming the midterms doesn't affect Trump and his sycophants?

    there is no use arguing with children. they need to mature.
    And the evidence presented so far is that some children never mature regardless how old they get.

    There are companies that breed leeches that are actually used in healthcare. Leeches are for example used to promote blood-flow after a body part have been re-attached after an accident etc. See ex https://www.biopharm-leeches.com Note: This answer is the rational and mansplaining adjacent answer (or as some would say: ackshually) to a question posed because of RFK Jr's irrational and non-scientific views on healthcare.

    You are awful and have no idea how anything anything works. Why are you talking?
    Now say that to a mirror and you'll be right at least once this week.

  • Apr 27, 2026 @ 03:47am

    Let’s hope you feel the same way about the historically racist Democratic Party too.
    Why? How is something that happened before the 60's relevant now?

  • Apr 25, 2026 @ 02:15pm

    Isn't amazing that you think that someone's opinion means that they aren't entitled the same rights as people that has a different opinion. Conditional rights based on what someone's public opinion is, I'm sure there's no way that will backfire if enshrined in law...

    That must explain why vaccine hesitancy is on the rise and the number of parents foregoing to vaccinate their children is also increasing. You know, the whole "trivial problem" -> "non-trivial problem"

  • Apr 24, 2026 @ 10:48am

    It's only trivial if you ignore the lasting health problems associated with having had measles which can lead to deaths later on and which aren't attributed to measles in the statistics - like pneumonia and encephalitis. You should really look up the health risks associated with measles before calling it "trivial".

    Well, there are do's and don'ts's. If someone is handed potential evidence, don't muck around with it and instead just deliver it to the relevant authorities. In this case, remember that FBI supposedly got a "clean copy" very early on and didn't find anything they would consider actionable then. It wasn't until much later that verified information from that copy was used to prosecute Hunter Biden for various tax related crimes (in conjunction with leaked information from the IRS) and the illegal possession of a gun.

    Why would I have said it 10 years ago? You weren't nearly this stupid back then and we all know how spotty your memory is when it comes to actual facts so when you claim something happened it usually didn't. I also find it damn funny that your reply only confirms what I wrote, you are getting more stupid and you don't even realize it. Just like how cultist members gets more and more shrill when people keep poking holes in the sad little bubble of lies the cultists surround themselves with. Cultist fanatics are all the same, there comes a point when they start killing people - I wonder how far off you are in that regard because you are always angry. Why don't you just start shouting "infidels" instead, insane leftists isn't nearly cultish enough for your behavior.

    Please, do invent more strawmen so we can build a big fire and burn them all later!

  • Apr 16, 2026 @ 03:47pm

    It's interesting to see that as time go by, you are sounding more and more like a deranged cult-member brainwashed to reject reality.

    How hard is it to understand that poor design choices of physical devices isn't editorial decisions? Conflating such choices with how content is organized and shown, show a distinct lack of understanding that this isn't an apples to apples comparison, it's an apple to peeler comparison.

  • Apr 15, 2026 @ 04:45pm

    It really seems like you agree with my point, honestly.
    Not really, because your point is flawed. You conflated physical design choices that directly affect unrelated 3rd parties in harmful ways with how content is presented to a user, or in simple terms, you equated physical form and function with web content organized in a certain way.
    Different things are different. Design decisions aren’t editorial decisions.
    They are and they aren't depending on the context. How you choose to present content, like a a design of a web site, is part of editorial decisions. How you choose to design a machine or device isn't, because how a device functions isn't content per se unless it is specifically designed that way so the device itself is part of the content - like some types of art. Nobody will claim that a design of a TV, for example is an editorial decisions because the TV itself isn't content, it's used to show content, just like a Tesla showing Tweets in stupid and illegal ways.
    I think we’re on the same page.
    Not really.
