The old adage that observing something changes it. Absolutely not. That is 100% something Fox News would do. There is a reason they never cover the investigation into Russian interference except to dunk on Mueller. I don’t know if i’m the crazy one here but whenever i’m watching the AM Fox News, it seems like pretty obvious manipulation of their viewers to buy into anti dem outrage. so yea, when they’re the only outlet reporting a strong lead for Jones the conclusion is glaringly obvious.. | ||

The statement in particular getting a lot of attention was a reported comment of Moore saying, in response to a question about the last time America was great, “I think it was great at the time when families were united — even though we had slavery — they cared for one another…. Our families were strong, our country had a direction.” Rye brought up that comment during a panel segment on the crazier things Moore has said and asked Martin what he meant by it. Martin said the comment is being taken out of context. He also said, really sending the segment off the rails, Moore’s “getting elected to the Senate. When he gets to the Senate, he’s gonna have to vote on things. Slavery’s not gonna be voted on in the Senate, and neither is homosexuality.” An outraged Rye responded, “Are you serious?!” Martin continued: “It’s such a slur against him. What he said was families still love each other when they existed… people in bondage, when the Jews were in bondage for years, they still loved each other.” Watch above, via CNN. www.mediaite.com | ||

A system imposed upon you at birth that allows no questioning. The existence of a deity is here besides the point. As for your second assertion, this is precisely why we are having this discussion. In the minds of myself and many people like me, the places you've listed have had their zenith a couple decades ago or so and are now being systematically eroded and undermined by concepts like cultural relativism, gender theory, third wave feminism, accommodation of Islam (the worst offender, imho), vilification of healthy traditional masculinity and femininity etc. I know you disagree with me on all these, but it's still a position you should attempt to understand. I attempt to understand the worldview of a progressive, I just think it makes the fatal mistake of completely ignoring the pragmatic realities of human psychology and is in its essence utopian in character which strikes me as a broken position. oh you consider "marxist doctrine" a religion huh? is this one of those cases where you are creating a term that nobody uses so that you can define what it means? wait no, jordan peterson uses the term and youve listened to him use it so you know what it means. it must be obvious to everyone then. have you ever heard any old soviet jokes? arent you slovenian? shouldnt you know better than us americans that plenty of people in eastern europe didnt "believe in marxist doctrine" (whatever that means, probably nothing), and yet they werent tortured and killed? | ||

I could easily see Moore winning without RNC support (granted it would’ve been harder) and then the GOP still gets to win the seat and not totally sell themselves out. I would’ve sympathized, personally. but oh well, instead we have an entire party supporting this racist child molestor with the family values platform. sucks to be a republican(non-politician i mean, fuck the actual GOP) this week. | ||
