  1. The cabal welcomes you
  2. Try it with a touch of distilled or seasoned rice instead of salt.
  3. Dudette, Jyna is the preferred nomenclature
  4. Celery salt on corn on the cob Soft boiled eggs over toast with black pepper and vinegar for breakfast
  5. What demographic?
  6. Doses & Mimosas
  7. This could be cross posted to the CRT thread https://www.bbc.com/news/health-56889861
  8. Would be great to squash it and remove the ability for residuals
  9. AMC and GME today are all 💠🚀🌕
  10. What do you guys want? They absolved themselves from their sins. That makes them hungry and makes a need to build up that list of new sins to ask for forgiveness for.
  11. Had a Qtard tell me that he was so excited for the point when Biden goes in front of the nation and pulls off his mask to show he was Trump all along. After I got over my shock of the stupidity, I asked if that meant he was a full supporter of the current administration then? He took a few seconds to think and was like, Yeah! 😐
  12. I will not buy into any idea that when taken to extremes, might be bad. I also will not buy into any idea where one anecdotal experience has a kid called an oppressor because that really means that anecdote is the mainstream. However, your anecdotal racial experience was just confusion on your part and our current systems as they are, are the best we should do, even when taken to the extremes. I'm sold.
  13. Sooooo, it doesn't have anything to do with Marxism. Cool.
  14. Pardon my ignorance, but what is this connection between Marxism and CRT? When trying to find something to understand the correlation, all I get are articles on how to fight back against CRT from opinion blogs.
  15. The BLM movement comes from the recent discrimination from law enforcement. If you can't accept these types of acts as systematic discrimination then you are intentionally obtuse.
  16. Of course he is because what good are rights if you can't push them on everyone, cause they are my rights.
  17. Cmon natural selection
  18. Yeah, let's not let facts get in the way https://worldpopulationreview.com/en/state-rankings/strictest-gun-laws-by-state https://www.gunsandammo.com/editorial/best-states-for-gun-owners/369075 https://giffords.org/lawcenter/resources/scorecard/ https://www.gunstocarry.com/gun-laws-state/ (should get that 5th star now, woo-hoo!) https://www.wideopenspaces.com/the-best-states-for-gun-owners-in-2020/
  19. Pretty much all pathetic excuses for men who are trying to prove something. There is no justifiable reason for this legislation, especially given that this state has some of the loosest gun regulations anywhere. The ones applauding this are weak and scared and exactly who shouldn't be open carrying because they will use this for all the wrong reasons. This from a gun owner and hunter whose dad was a collector yet never felt the need to leave the house with one.
  20. He was on a podcast Smartless and actually talked about it a bit. Highly recommend a listen as it was a hilarious episode. But he point blank said that he couldn't do Colbert in the current climate.
  21. 1. I don't know why we are talking about Christian schools. You made the choice to indoctrinate your kids in that system so you can control that problem. 2. No one is asking anyone to do anything you have highlighted around atonement. That's pure projection. Maybe you need to understand why you feel that that is thrusted upon you because I view this (as a white privileged man) in that I need to adjust my worldview as it pertains to what my experience is vs those less fortunate, especially in terms of race. Then take that introspection and see if there is anything in my control that I can do to mitigate any unconscious biases in my daily life. That's it. If you do that, you are helping solve the issues. We're at a weird time in our lives where we lived before the internet. Where our singular experiences were what dictated what our reality was. Now we have so much more information that highlights issues not evident in our immediate orbit. You can either ignore this new information, or take it on so it's not a problem for our children.
  22. You and others here continue to say there have been and are issues, but instead of wanting to actually fix it, you just want to flippantly solve it in a half assed way by throwing money at it. As a lifelong Longhorn fan, I know that that is rarely a cure to the issue. This takes everyone in the society realizing they are all part of the same community, and that community is sick. Sick because of traditions and laws that were made by those in your closed community. When powerful rich white men make laws (which is what has happened since America became America), those structures tend to lean towards benefiting those who make the laws. And when the community sees a black man kneeling in protest of injustices, did you say "I know there injustices in his community and I applaud his bravery in making sure our society addresses it"? No, you said stand up for the flag and play ball. That little thing over and over and over, throughout all facets of life is what needs to be addressed and it takes both the individual and the institutions to fix. But instead, you advocate pushing your kids into christian right-leaning schools, and by doing so, you are ensuring that these issues remain because all they see is what you see......which is an incomplete picture.
