technically, i dont know for sure, but is the sky really blue?

Chipit 7 insightful - 7 fun7 insightful - 6 fun8 insightful - 7 fun 2 years ago

Biden says the sky is blue.

FACT CHECK: Mostly true.

Trump says the sky is blue.

FACT CHECK: Did this moron consider that at night the sky is black? That's more than half the day, half the time. At sunset and sunrise it's orange and yellow, which makes it even less time. When it's cloudy the sky is white, when it's stormy the sky is grey. Did the fucking liar even consider a rainbow, which is all colors and the symbol of the gay pride movement, which is always right and is impossible to be wrong? We rate this piece of shit's claims as PANTS ON FIRE.

What color do you think it is? Have you been outside?

PastorJohnny 5 insightful - 5 fun5 insightful - 4 fun6 insightful - 5 fun 2 years ago

i live in my bathroom, mostly i sleep behind the toilet.. i rarely venture out beyond the bathtub. i must confess that i did once look out the window, but that was kinda weird.

i firmly believe in god, his name is MISTER CLEAN, he specializes in cleaning the bathrooms of the universe.

He's an AHS troll; just ignore him. It's u/ILoveCher on his billionth alt. How do I know? He has a distinctive writing style and always posts stupid crap like this. The only purpose of this account is to bury real discussion beneath stupidity. He can be funny sometimes, but he has an ulterior motive.

PastorJohnny 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

amelia? are you referring to me? fyi, i am not /u/ilovecher ..

The only purpose of this account is to bury real discussion beneath stupidity

no, my intent is to be funny AND to provoke people to think in new directions. i am working on a LARGE software project and i am just killing time.

He can be funny sometimes, but he has an ulterior motive.

gee, thanks.. but no, no other motive.

Neat that you signed your name.

Nice to meet you Edward.

Out of curiosity, did I inspire your reveal?

JasonCarswellMental Orgy 1 insightful - 3 fun1 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 3 fun 2 years ago

IMO, you are mistaken about PastorJohnny/Skeeter being AHS (whatever that is) or ILoveCher, though there are some similarities, as there are with many asstrolls and bored mischievous shit disturbers. Edward gives us audio rants now and then which is different than other folks. He does post stupid crap, and occasionally posts some very insightful stuff too. He's unbalanced and like everyone, from the best of us to the worst, he also has issues.

Ultimately it doesn't matter much if he is or isn't a Cher lover.

I banned this guy enough times to memorize his writing style; it's definitely him.

Seems like clear skies to me.

Yin 4 insightful - 4 fun4 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 4 fun 2 years ago

Clear skies are white privilege. Put your artificial smog helmet on. I might let you remove it and re-enter society if you commit yourself to the totally voluntary option of being my slave.

JasonCarswellMental Orgy 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun 2 years ago

I thought little fluffy clouds that look like cotton balls represent racists and ravers.

I volunteer to be totally tubular.

You can probably find some neckbeard on Twitter who's already said that, to be honest.

Neckbeards are usually one step ahead of the general population.
Their reputation for shrewd analysis of social and political trends is well recognized, in certain elite circles.

Plausibly the result of their well-insulated thyroid.

JasonCarswellMental Orgy 2 insightful - 5 fun2 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 5 fun 2 years ago

The pejorative "neckbeard" is our lockstep totalitarian culture's dismissal of older gents who may have no children, no responsibilities, no hangups, no distractions, no great wealth, no Earthly trappings, and/or no need for narcissistic masturbatory self-grooming. In other cultures they may utilize other classic terms for them such as: wise men, gurus, sages, shamans, prophets, etc.

[deleted] 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

no need for narcissistic masturbatory self-grooming.

That's the opposite of a neckbeard, Jason.

JasonCarswellMental Orgy 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

Yes, that's why it says "no need" for it, nor any of the other trappings of "normal" life.

The problem is many of the folks on the other side of the "normal" hump on the IQ bell curve don't subscribe to those trappings either, while some autistic folks manage to straddle the hump simultaneously.

Enlightenment, could be a filthy wank away...

A western adaptation of the Japanese concept of kenjataimu

Filthy wanks clear the mind of cobwebs of distracting mischief.

How many wanks to get to highest level of samadhi?

"The sky is blue"

X. Not accurate. This statement has been determined to be false by the designated fact-checking authorities.

[deleted] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

I posted this to Twitter to see if they'll ever put some "fact-check" bullshit on it like they did to Trump.

[deleted] 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun 2 years ago

I mean the sky actually isn't blue. It's the color we see refracted through the atmosphere by the sun. We should start saying it isn't blue now and get ahead of them.

passionflounderPaper tiger 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun 2 years ago

The sky identifies as pink.

Calm the fuck down.

Just because your desire for discrimination and hate speech have been eroded in the past 20 years (and recovered over the past 5), doesn't mean that truth isn't a sound defence where free speech is protected.

[deleted] 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

You mean the hate speech that says minorities can't be racist or the hate speech that says everyone is equal?

ActuallyNot 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun 2 years ago

Hate speech can be made by minorities, and does not say that everyone is equal.

"Hatred is predicated on destruction, and hatred against identifiable groups therefore thrives on insensitivity, bigotry and destruction of both the target group and of the values of our society. Hatred in this sense is a most extreme emotion that belies reason; an emotion that, if exercised against members of an identifiable group, implies that those individuals are to be despised, scorned, denied respect and made subject to ill-treatment on the basis of group affiliation"

Doesn't matter who says it. Certainly doesn't claim that everyone is equal, because it targets an identifiable group.

JasonCarswellMental Orgy 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

Doesn't matter who says it.

But it does matter who prosecutes "hate". Selective punishment cuts all ways always.

He's not in an at risk group for being treated unfairly by the court system.

Go back to r/AHS.

The sky is blue. You're chicken-little fear-mongering about hate speech laws is pathetic.

There are genuine things you should be afraid of. Grow a spine, snowflake.

You are dragging down discussion. You are warned.

ActuallyNot 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

Pardon me. I must have missed some subtleties of "Go back to r/AHS", because it's not obvious that there's a discussion there.

Although to be fair, I don't know what r/AHS is, so I may well have missed the subtext.

Please enlighten me, what is the discussion here that you claim I'm "dragging down"

And while we're here, can you elaborate on "You are warned"? What is that supposed to mean?

[deleted] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun 2 years ago

You're chicken-little fear-mongering about hate speech laws is pathetic.

Calm down and take a joke. I never said it'd be illegal. Hate speech laws are something to be afraid of, though — just look at the UK.

What has you in a bad mood? Did someone make fun of you for your race or sexuality? People make fun of me all the time for being transgender, so I know how it is — but we can't just throw those people in prison for saying mean things.
