If you were one of the people playing that game - yes - you would label that “extremist” I guess. But it’s ABSOLUTELY nothing like me providing cover for the “****” lovers … a statement you agreed with.
Remember when I said I expected you to go further on the offensive?

See, I am usually right about people.

I generally find you easy to talk with.
He quoted a post that said I was providing cover for the left itt, and agreed with it flat out. He then called me an extremist. I don’t find these to be fair statements, and I’m inclined to believe there is a degree of dishonesty involved.

And you as well, if we knew each other irl and discussed politics - we would often disagree but I would respect you.

Apparently you think holding you accountable for your actual words, that you refuse to support with a quotation or retract is “going on the offensive”

Meanwhile I’ve been charged with gaslighting and being loved by peddos and an extremist. A claim you quoted to agree with, and the other you made yourself.

But I’m the one “on the offensive?”

I guess we are done here.

I'm more concerned with how they deviated from the books there at the end. Second movie was good, not 10/10, I felt Zendaya missed the mark a bit -- no attempt at an accent and, this isn't on her, but her being so against Paul was problematic. Spoiler: But Paul fuks things up very badly with his Jihad, which is kind of one of the many points of the book, the blind trust in a savior/Religion being dangerous. Her being set up to be a, "I told you so!" not just goes against the character, but fuk I was watching the movie, having been familiar with the books and knowing how bad it gets, and still found myself believing in Paul. If they make the empress the sire of his children, that's fuking awful.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

Come on, man! There should be no outrage at an illegal who was arrested, released, and then murder a US citizen. How dare you be outraged on the behalf of the murder victim!

I liked the movies, but in the book, the story takes place over years, not months.

Messiah also takes place 12-15 years later, so who knows what they're gonna do.

Messiah also isn't that exciting of a book, so I wonder what they'll do.

Sounds pretty outrageous to me. And nothing I’ve said would ever lead you to think otherwise if you were not just parroting some talking points.

Oh yes, Conservatives are showing their outrage culture at the border being left wide open for fecal scum to waltz right through….Really the same thing

Ahhh of course, it’s different when you do it. Don’t worry I’m sure Trump and only Trump can save our country.

Cause that kind of talk isn’t scary at all …

Ok, so as a country let’s take a deep breath and talk constructively. Let’s demand it of our leaders. It’s not going to be as easy as just being pissed off and pointing fingers all the time. It will require compromise. But if you care about actually fixing things this stuff that’s the path forward.

Once again, what did Nikki Haley say about illegals? Same thing as Biden. And how was our border under Trump?

LMFAO...okay.

Let's talk constructively:

"We need to stop the flow of illegal immigrants"
"YOU'RE RACIST!! NO HUMAN IS ILLEGAL!!"

"Let's build a wall to help secure our border"
"WALLS ARE RACIST YOU WHITE SUPREMACIST! THEY'RE ALSO EXPENSIVE - AND WE HAVE TO SEND UKRAINE BILLIONS!!"

"We really need to stop the flow of unvetted illegal aliens. Some of them commit crime and have had violent history in their home country"
"AMERICANS COMMIT CRIME YOU BIGOT!!"

"We need to deport illegal aliens, especially the ones breaking committing crime beyond illegal entry"
"NO! DEPORTATION IS IMMORAL! YOU'RE BREAKING UP FAMILIES! IF THEY'RE CAUGHT COMMITTING A CRIME, WE MUSN'T PROSECUTE THEM AND WE NEED TO RELEASE THEM SO THEY CAN MURDER AMERICAN CITIZENS!!"

"We need to direct more money to the border protection and ICE agencies to give them the tools to curb the flow of illegal aliens"
"RACIST!! ICE IS AN AGENCY OF NOT-SEES"

"Some of the illegal immigrants are murders and rapists. We need to know who's coming into our country"
"TRUMP CALLED ALL IMMIGRANTS MURDERS AND RAPISTS!! REEEE!!!"

Seriously, stfu with your fake altruistic platitudes. There's ZERO compromise with you lefties. You are so far off the rails that conversation is pointless.

I'm shocked people aren't losing it over Javier Bardem not being Arab, or N. African. He's Spanish, so technically white.

Bingo. Trying to pretend like both sides are the same by this point is simply insane. The left cannot reason, it's their way or the highway. Any attempts at a reasonable discussion are futile.

Lol @ the above. They lost their chit at white women playing Cleopatra when this country was like 94% white many decades ago. Surprised they're not literally shaking right now.
