    My mom had an uncle who was a Holocaust denier. He never tried to prove his belief. [Red was a marine (on protective detail) on a transport boat at the moment Japan attacked Pearl Harbour. Claimed to have locked eyes with a a Japanese gunner. Served in the Pacific throughout WWII, and saw Hiroshima post nuke].

    When he said the Holocaust was a story that diverted the world’s condemnation of what the US had done with our nuclear attack, I didn’t argue. (In part because the limit of his argument has merit, and didn’t  speak to the Holocaust being fact). 

    I imagine that scene scarred his soul, and he was left with rage that the bombings weren’t viewed with the outrage he thought they deserved. Whatever I might have said would have also focused on something other than nuclear warfare, and would have twisted the knife in his heart.

    Both things are true. The Holocaust and our nuclear attack were atrocities. We have an excuse for the nukes that we are willing to believe. Red didn’t buy that excuse.

    Ridicule him if you want. I think he’s wrong, but only so far as the Halocaust.

    Red was smart enough to know the finer that andouille is diced, the more flavor it offers gumbo. 

    Csb.

    Sounds like you're going with something like Dan Rather's "Fake but True" argument.  Mm'k.

     

    I have no idea what you mean.

    The '16 election was absolutely not in any way stolen. 100%.

    Is that clear enough?

    Interesting that you single out 2020. Does your litmus test on stupidity apply to 2016? Or is buying into the Russian collusion story acceptable?

     

     

    Nothing interesting about it.  I limited to 2020 simply because it is current and because it is a different kind of allegation than '16.  I think it's clear that there were efforts in '16 by outsiders (Russians, especially) to INFLUENCE the election, but no serious charge of vote tampering, manufacturing, etc. And certainly not enough to swing key states to change the outcome.

    6.  Someone who posts on a message board that apparently knows unequivocally certain things that could be argued have a political slant to them.

    7.  someone who says if you disagree with said “points” you’re a mouth breather.  
     

    stay in your bubble dude, the world is a scary place.  Keep refreshing your Facebook page too counting your likes.

    So, I take that to meant you are saying you agree with at least one of the original five statements.

    Good to know.

    well yeah, 'cause a coup, by definition, is carried out by an outside-of-power entity or group.  Are you saying people are stupid for thinking the current administration could carry out a coup because they are already the administration or that such a person would fail the stupid litmus test because the current administration couldn't possibly carry out a coup?  I'm confused.  

    The current administration has a Constitutionally-prescribed expiration date that is about two months away.  Any efforts to extend their stay in power beyond that date could legitimately be characterized as attempting to act out a coup.

  6. I'm not sure if this belongs on this board or is better-suited for another, but this seems right. 

    1.       The earth is flat.

    2.       The moon landing was faked.

    3.       9/11 was an inside job.

    4.       The 2020 US Presidential election was stolen.

    5.       Vaccines cause autism.

     

    These are my litmus tests for knowing if I am dealing with an idiot.  If you believe any one of those statements is true, then you are absolutely lumped-in with the mouth-breathing troglodytes that believe any of the others.  Number 4 is relevant now and number 5 is about to become really relevant as the world attempts to put Covid-19 back into the box from whence it came.

    If you, like me, look at each of those items and wonder to yourself, "Just how dumb do you have to be to believe THAT?" then congratulations, you are a reasonably intelligent human.  If not, I implore you to stay inside, stay offline and not inflict yourself upon the world in any way. 

    And please, don't reproduce. You're not going to immunize your children anyway and odds are that IF they grow up, they will hate you for it.

    Happy Friday the 13th!

    Why would literally anyone anywhere trust a single word that comes out of wife abusing asshole's mouth?

    Literally, he blames everything bad that has happened to him on Tom and Michelle - he has shown that he will lie about just about anything and everything.

    I don't love Tom Herman but as far as we know he is just a narcissistic jerk - not a shitty human who abused his wife then torpedo'd his entire career and is left with nothing but throwing rocks at anyone and everyone who will listen.

    Literally?

    Literally?

    State Champ schedule.  Not sure what I'll do without FSSW this year.  Hopefully they stream it free online for everyone.

    I hope you mean that YOU don't have FSSW, not that they aren't broadcasting the games.

    Lol’ing at some fucking moron On Tech football pages trying to say Art Briles Is a fantastic candidate to replace Wells, because good oh art was just the scapegoat for Baylor’s transgressions. I mean I guess it could be arts mom if she weren’t dead already...

    when I say I would rather finish last then have that motherfucker is the face of tech football, it may very well come to fruition this year. And yes I can stomach finishing last way the hell Easier than seeing that piece of shit in red and black

    That is a healthy attitude.

    One hour ago, we were down to the last wine glass of the collection we got as a wedding gift. In that time, I broke one when I was really drunk after a UT game. As of 5 minutes ago, we are at zero.

    She doesn't drink wine.....She has literally broken 5 wine glasses that I was drinking out of.....

    You let her break all of your precious wedding gift wine glasses?  You bastard!
