  1. It is. And it makes me pretty ragey. My wife is in the medical field and so are a large number of our friends. They are already having trouble keeping up their stock and are worried about needing to close if they can't re-stock. I'm sure their patients will appreciate not being seen because some numbnuts has a box of 50 surgical masks that he'll never have to use.
  2. Don't do this. Medical professionals actually need those and they are already in short supply.
  3. It doesn't. He's just retaliating against New Yorkers because he doesn't like local policy instituted by New York and he's trying to put a stop to the lawsuits and investigations into him by the state of New York. Basically, he's still acting corruptly as fuck.
  4. What's allegedly the full Trevorrow script has leaked and it's way fucking better than the crap JJ served up.
  5. Perhaps if your posts weren't pure sexism referring to women as bitches and cunts simply for having an opinion, you wouldn't be getting negged. People aren't negging your posts because they disagree with some policy, they are negging your posts because their fucking misogynist garbage.
  6. I notice that he apologized for using the n-word, but not for making the stupid comparison.
  7. It must be weird to know that your dad fucked a monkey.
  8. I see that onboard has degenerated into a blubbering mess after being faced with his own cowardice and hypocrisy.
  9. I was just talking about how you're a coward with no principles. Thanks for proving my point.
  10. I've noticed that onboard has failed to respond to my post. I guess that's because he's a coward who doesn't want to admit that he doesn't hold the people he idolizes to the same standards that he holds poor college kids. But that's not uncommon for people who lack principle.
  11. Personal responsibility. That's interesting. So let's talk about personal responsibility of people beyond students whose parents couldn't afford to pay for their college degree. Let's say we have a person who has bankrupted multiple business, putting people out of jobs and screwing over contractors who then couldn't get paid or pay their employees, putting them out of jobs. Let's say this person's bankruptcies total in the hundreds of millions, if not billions. Should that person be personally responsible for their poor business decisions? Should they still be a billionaire millionaire who is lauded as a great business person? Or should they be a penniless pauper living on the streets? Should 40% of the country vote that person into office because they will use their "great business skills" to improve the economy? Is that personal responsibility? And when that person treats the country in the same manner they treated their companies, blowing up debt at an astronomical rate, should the people who voted for him and who continue to support him be personally responsible for those debts? Should they be personally responsible to those who voted against him? Should tax payers who support his business practices be the ones to pay for them? Personal responsibility can be an interesting and complicated concept. But I find often it just breaks down to one simple rule: personal responsibility for thee and not for me. As a somewhat wealthy white man, you are perfectly happy for poor college kids to face personal responsibility. But a rich white man facing personal responsibility? That's just fucking crazy.
  12. Bingo. I'm sure that the same posters in this thread who think students should pay for their mistake of financing a "useless" degree also think Trump is a great business man and all of his bankruptcies are just the art of the deal. When a rich person fucks up, they have bought and paid for politicians writing beneficial laws that will protect the rich person's money even as they fuck over an entire company, industry, or country (hello, 2008). And that's just good business sense. But when an 18 year old tries to give themselves a better path in life that offers them an opportunity for a career in an industry they like, it's "well you were just fucking stupid and need to pay for your mistakes."
  13. What I get from this thread is that the entire bankruptcy system, tax incentives, and public investment should be eliminated because they encourage/allow people to make bad decisions for which they don't feel the consequences.
  14. I thought that the majority of Republicans actually understood and cared about Christ's teachings and that the opportunistic charlatans were in the minority. It turns out they're all fake Christians.
  15. And then they continue to support him because they are all a bunch of hypocritical, fake-Christian pieces of shit.
  16. She was really good in the Farewell. One of the best movies of last year that got zero Oscar noms because Hollywood is full of racists.
  17. FIFY.
  18. I really don't give a shit if we get same day results. Just give us the correct results once they're in.
  19. Is it possible for someone to rep themselves? Asking for a friend.
  20. That and "we had a black president so racism doesn't exist in this country anymore" energy.
  21. Man, alvin sure did get pissy because I implied that a 90+% white Iowa that uses a fucked up, archaic system of determining delegates may not be a good representation of how more diverse states may vote in true primaries. It's almost like he's thin-skinned and was just looking for something to offend him.
  22. Don't be so sensitive, snowflake.
  23. I think you meant to post this in the dumb question amnesty thread.
  24. Yeah, even if Pete did get the most delegates, I'm going to wait to come to a conclusion until we get to a state where delegates aren't determined by a bunch of white people playing red rover.
