The cool thing about independent thought is I dont have to ascribe the same value judgement or perspective as the DNC. Im able to vote closer to my principles by choosing a socialist candidate every time the DNC nominees move toward the right.
Bad faith lemmings will paint that as not caring about the outcome, but I can sleep at night knowing that when offered a choice between slow descent to fascism and rapid descent to fascism, I chose no fascism.
Dont care may be not voting at all, not automatically applicable to people who vote for the candidates libs dont like.

My favorite has been the shift in the definition of ‘nuanced’ to mean “the singular date in recent history that lets me assign blame in one direction and ignoring everything else”… somehow always used in a patronizing tone by someone who thinks Colonization was actually good because it brought us the iphone
So an article that documents CIA blowback is pro Iranian? Thats a hell of a knee jerk
Ha don’t get me wrong its still good. You could fix that with a runner that says 5 min ago it earlier that day or remove the Dino. Subverting expectations is a big part of the laugh for me but your joke is great.
Kinds wish they moved panel 1 to 4 for the reveal
This line always bothers me. When I worked broiler I realized that a NY strip steak retailed at 23 bucks. I made 14/hr and would make dozens of steaks an hour on average with most happening Friday night. The NY strip at cost was just under 7 bucks. It took me less then one hour on that busy shift to pay my entire weekly salary with the revenue I generated in steaks alone, but almost 2 hours of work to afford one for myself. Steamed vegetables, soda, pasta, anything with minimal prep had even better margins.
That particular store went under but not before the owner literally bought three yachts. THREE. That experience alone would radicalize any reasonable person
But is it really easily if only one yacht? /s
Ha I’ve said that my whole life except for the last part. I’d say “there’s a legal limit to how much you can take off”
I love the ship building aspect, but then I never truly get to use it. Feels like a waste. Also when you finally find a planet with life and do a survey, all of the buildings you go into on the way are buildings you’ve already seen and cleared. Enemies in the same spots. Items in the same spots. I love exploring in games and here its like… okay I guess ill just mine the same three rocks while I run 800m to a location that never seems to pay off. Sure would be nice if I could fly my dope ship over the horizon instead
Im making shit up? You opened with this
I’d like to propose a thought. 1.) God makes rules 2.) Following those rules is good 3.) Breaking those rules is evil
For the record I’m agnostic, and I don’t believe in a monotheistic god. One that is asserted as omnipotent, benevolent, omnipresent, omniscient etc. The Christian god is the one which the moral argument was presented against which does assume a god of perfect good. I personally think if god exists they would encompass the lowest common denominator of spiritual beliefs and likely be devoid of a singular personality.
Just like your original point about this supposed moral immunity derived from authority, the subject is not so black and white. You’re not either an athiest or a believer depending on where you argue from. Every believer in one god is also an athiest to another.
I don’t have to believe in “your” god to point out the bad argument in support of god. I dont have to acknowledge gods existence to defend against believers imposing their beliefs of god onto me. I also don’t have to stay quiet while somebody takes a pulpit and cries about how their omnibenevolent 7th dimension king of kings gets a bad rap from everyone who doesn’t see just how magnificient their being is because theyre too hung up on the silly notion that a being of perfect good would not order kidnapping virgins to take as child brides, or genocide every Canaanite, command bears to eat children who teased a bald guy and so on.
I’m making the statement that if you think that god doesn’t exist because god doesn’t meet your definition of good or moral, you’re missing the mark. If god exists they exists outside of whether you believe in them. If god exists and their power is what is attributed to them then your opinions, however morally well founded they may be, are completely worthless.
Your statement doesn’t exist in a void!! People dismissing god as immoral is based on a thousand years of philosophy such as Thomas Aquinas, Immanuel Kant, and CS Lewis asserting that god is the source of all morality.
People arent starting with god isnt moral therefore he doesn’t exist, as you claim in this strawman. arguments for god are been presented as omnibenelovent and the source of all morality, god does things that are agreed upon as immoral, therefore the moral arguments for god are wrong and god still likely doesn’t exist. Pointing out contradictions between the actions of god in the Bible and the claims made about gods also doesn’t make an athiest a believer. More desperate gotcha bullshit.
The lesson here is either stop believing in god or fucking shut up about it.
So much for that high school paper. You very clearly don’t have any grounds to hand out lessons.
Only you are not having a philosophical debate with god about your moral judgments, ill be the first to admit that gods opinion matters fuck all in a philosophical debate about god you are debating the ideas of the person who believes in god. This idea that god can and will always be good and just simply because he may exist outside of any human measurement is absolute bullshit for all the reasons I listed above and more. The belief of god and the claim the god wills or controls every action and event can be tested.
Any claim to the contrary is just cowardly evasion or desperation
Please stop, I can only get so erect
