Nah, just being the federalist is all I need, nothing with the word fact comes from that website. Thanks for playing. 

I think 95% of what CNN, MSNBC, Huffing Compost, NY Times, etc. say is crap, but if I am trying to disprove something the article said, I kind of have to read the article. Lest I appear like a moron. 😉 Saying you won't read something is a coward's way of protecting yourself from the possibility of being wrong. There are alphas and there are betas. We all have to be one or the other. I understand.

Don't forget to add Fox News, Newsmax and OANN to your list ;)

I disagree with them too. Not as bad as the rest I mentioned, but I find probably 1/3rd of what they say to be crap or just something to fill the silence. And?

Not surprising in the least you would think that.  They are the kings of lying to the public outright.

Oh, I see how this works. I call Joe a pedophile, someone says they also shower with their kids, then I get called a pervert.

I thought you had a high IQ?  I am calling you that because you seem overly intrigued by people showering with children!  It's all laid out here - it's not hard to follow.  Do try!

I'm sorry your job at McDonald's isn't working out for you

I have no shame in that I flipped burgers in my teens - I'm not sure how that matters.  Does that also make you more intelligent?  I argue it still plays a part in my life insofar as while I manage IT for a large

 

law firm, I also still have a roll-up-your-sleeves work ethic and don't feel the need to try and brag about a job that nobody here can even verify!

Hey, the world needs these menial jobs.

Yes it does.  I'm sorry - what does that have to do with your fantasies about showering with kids?

He's one of "those". 

 

The people that think they're above those who do the menial jobs, because we all know HIS job is OH so important and that the world would come to a screeching halt if YORAK were to stop doing his job today.

I just want all pedophiles behind bars. Are you having trouble comprehending that?

Lol, you have no idea how many IT Managers I've met that know absolutely nothing. Managing isn't much of a skill. Anyone with a partially working brain can manage others. Someone mentioned losing brain cells, I responded, wanting to put our brain cells to the test. 😉

 

Now crawl back under your rock and tell me more about how you think pedophilia is just a sexual preference like your buddies. Do you also use crack like Hunter Biden? Or do you only sympathize with the pedophilia portion, not drug usage? Hunter and his daddy have some big issues.

The world wouldn't, but the company I work for with over 30,000 employees would. Does that count? 😉

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA... it's cute that you think you're that important, and irreplaceable. wow... that's... amazing.

Such a bunch of sados. Warnings will be handed out for derailing the original topic.

 

Just because someone THINKS Joe is creepy, or THINKS he's a pedo does not make it true, it makes you look like a MAGA idiot and such posts do nothing but derail the topic.

 

I challenge you to find such derailing in TFG's President topic, because sadly for many Americans and the rest of the world all of his idiocy is real and verified, 

 

STAY ON TOPIC OR GET OUT.

And you think Fox News, Newsmax and OANN are more reputable than CNN, MSNBC, Huffington Post and New York Times.

 

I rest my case :D

Just so we are clear... pedophilia, sexual abuse on any side of the isle is disgusting and these people should spend life behind bars. The rate of recidivism in pedophiles is higher than any other type of offender, and I do not believe they should see the light of day. They cannot be rehabilitated. Statistically some can, but I'd rather not have society take that risk. Secondly, my point still stands that pedophilia is more prevalent on the left than on the right. Nobody has been able to disprove that yet. I'm looking at numbers alone. I'm aware the right also has our share of disgusting people, though. I never give my side a free pass for anything, especially the aforementioned evil acts. Even when Trump was in office, I commented frequently to friends and family about his rhetoric. Sometimes funny, but distracting, unnecessary and sometimes incorrect. If anything, I am tougher on the right than the left because I am tired of people that don't.

Edit: Typo... hovering over my work keyboard to type on mine.

 

Strange that your second point is that one side is worse then the other while not actually supporting that view with evidence. If you're going to make a claim, back it up. If you can't back it up, that suggests that you might want to reflect as to why your opinion is the way it is when you lack the supporting evidence.

I am, based upon you asking to know about showering with children, yeah!

No I don't.  That's an odd claim.

If you say so.  Still not sure of your point here...

OK, well keep striving...

Please quote where I have made such an odd claim.  Again, you are the one who has asked to hear more about showering with kids.

I don't, do you?  And what does Hunter have to do with literally any part of this conversation?  Deflecting much!

And?

No, I had to stop people posting there temporarily while I dealt with three pages of arguing here.

The amount of defending of creepy grandpa Joe is laughable.  All the typical excuses: but Trump, but Russia, but January 6th...

It's amazing how many people will go to bat for this guy while he takes a steamy dump on the entire country, and his followers bend over and take it.  Can we ever elect a leader that's not a braindead and senile piece of trash?  Yeesh...

If there was something there that would be one thing, but what's being implied from the OP is just silly.

So, worries let's just all agree to disagree.

You forget, you can't have an opposing opinion as seen from some of these responses.

I wish.

 

It's appalling that toxicity is allowed to continue to such crazy levels. People don't stay on topic anyway, not sure why the hell we're worried about it now. People can't even be civil to each other, it's stupidity allowed to run wild.

According to the 1,500+ page Trump page, anything related to Trump was on topic.

Please don't mistake, this braveheart level of paint your face red or blue to bitch at each other has been something that caused me to abandon the forums part of this website for years, including the drivel in that thread. I've occasionally chimed in, but the cesspool it's become, red/blue, left or right, the amount of disrespect people show for each other... it's just too much. If I wanted that crap, I'd stay on Twitter with the other jackasses who continue to fill their days being mad.

 

It's just not healthy. But hey, maybe that's my prerogative. You guys do you, I'm just saying this stuff could've been moderated better a long time ago, but in an age where forums are dying, I get it.

    • A gatekeeper is basically a company that is used by so many other (businesses) that sudden changes could impact the other business might fail. Like for example, say a car show room uses AWS to it's database, as gatekeepers amazon wouldn't really be expected to just change it's terms of conditions that would rug pull the database from the car show's business leaving them in the dark.
    • As someone who isn't in the EU what is all this gatekeeper stuff about anyways?
    • The data center gold rush has tossed all forms of sensibility and reasoning right out of the window. The craziest part being that AI infrastructure isn't driven by consumer demand. It's being driven by manufacturers to force AI onto the market, consumers be damned.
    • Apple has not said whether the new prices are temporary ..... LOL.... These are the new prices peeps, because they will still sell them. Everybody will get used to the price hike = more Profit!
    • EU says AWS and Microsoft Azure should be treated as DMA gatekeepers by Pradeep Viswanathan Under the European Commission's Digital Markets Act (DMA), a company is presumed to be a gatekeeper if it meets certain quantitative thresholds. However, the Commission can still investigate and designate a company even if it does not meet the numeric thresholds, provided the service has a major market impact. The European Commission launched its investigations into AWS and Azure on November 18, 2025, to address unfair or anti-competitive practices in the cloud sector. Today, the European Commission has informed Amazon and Microsoft of its preliminary view that their cloud computing services, AWS and Azure, should be designated as gatekeepers under the DMA. The EC highlighted that Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure are the largest and second-largest cloud computing services in the European Union. Both of these platforms act as important gateways between businesses and their customers in the EU. The EC further mentioned that AWS and Azure have reached significant turnover, built large and entrenched user bases, and benefit from high switching costs and customer lock-in. Furthermore, their operational capacity and investments appear to have outpaced those of competitors. Teresa Ribera, Executive Vice-President for Clean, Just and Competitive Transition, said the following: It is important to note that the findings are preliminary and do not decide the final outcome. Amazon and Microsoft can now review the findings and respond to the Commission. However, if the Commission confirms its preliminary findings, it will formally designate Amazon and Microsoft as gatekeepers for AWS and Azure. Once designated, Microsoft and Amazon will have six months to bring their cloud services into full compliance with the DMA’s rules and regulations.
