He's a politically correct leftist guy from reddit who's here to either troll or call us names, of course the only thing he looks forward to is political in nature. Probably doesn't talk to his parents because they don't believe in this 'gender is not sex' thing.

In all seriousness, I do find it sad how many families have been broken up by politics over the last two Presidents. I'm not blaming the Presidents, but the decline in social skills -- small talk being one of the most important.

It was like that 100 years ago too, lol

That would put it at 1920. . . Nope. Doesn't check out. People saw their extended families frequently and would say things like "don't politics at the dinner table."

The "lol" is a pretty strong sign you're not interesting in learning anything about it, however.

I guess you don't know much about political history. Thousands of years ago, Greeks and Romans were using language against their political opponents in public debates that would make even Howard Stern pull the plug.

Public debates is a really separate thing from encouraging family members to stop speaking to each other, getting people fired, etc. I don't know what they were doing in addition to debating with fiery language (assassinating each other...?) but fiery language alone does not an equivalent comparison make.

You think families not speaking to each other over politics is new, huh? lol

I don't know enough to say, which is why I'm patiently awaiting you providing sources instead of just saying "lol" or citing roman public political debates.

Source? No, not that website, lol...source? I need a source. I don't know how to use Google, so...source? Oh wait, you post on r/TheDonald, lol, your source is bullshit...yeah, I'm gonna need a source, bro

It's really not that hard to source historical claims. But since you can't, whatever. /shrug the entire interaction with you has felt more like talking to a troll than someone with something to contribute to the conversation so I think we can stop here and call it a day (feel free to insert whatever your last snarky lol will be so you can feel like you've had the last word 🙄)

[–]theFriendlyDoomer 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

Cuz that was totally 100 years ago. LOL!! OMG! HaHaHA.

[–]StBlops2cel_is_Lord 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Hundreds and even thousands of years ago, people fought bitterly over divided political opinions. Is that better? Stop splitting hairs over words, and deal with the essence of the idea.

[–]theFriendlyDoomer 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Sure, like the respect you give others ideas. LOL. HA ha. HAAHAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHA.

    I do, too. But what kind of insult is 'horse fucker'?

    [–]RecordStory 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

    Perfect for someone who fucks horses

    [–]stupidmechanic 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

    Can't deny that lol. But then it wouldn't be an insult would it.
