Well, with my limited amount of grey matter, I was able to read a few accounts of WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam and I don’t ever want to experience war or sit here while other people have to. The idea is abhorrent. I mean if you have at least as much grey matter as this fucking idiot…
In Sierra Leone, a cheap, synthetic drug is ravaging youth. Trash-strewn alleys are lined with boys and young men slumped in addiction. Healthcare services are severely limited. One frustrated community has set up what it calls a treatment center, run by volunteers. But harsh measures can be used....
You’re 0-5. Too stoopid to know a black flag. Misinterpreting my interacting with you as anger. Thinking my aversion to libruls, or in your case libdulls, makes me conservative. I could go on but you should just take my advices… just vote harder. Oh, and recycle more! And I don’t want to sound too radical but, read a fucking book every now and then. No gods, no masters!

Thanks for the help… When someone is talking about cognitive tests and another interjects a sarcastic jibe counter-argument about literacy tests, that’s a strawman…
A straw man is a form of argument and an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent’s argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent.
Additionally I believe I was agreeing with you by pointing the fact out while choosing not to engage with the other poster as arguments like this indicate they are likely not worth engaging. Sorry for any confusion, I have problems communicating with others sometimes.
My USian privilege has allowed me to throw out all of the weevils thus far. Unfortunately we are in a position forcing us to need to eat the lesser weevils and it’s turning a bunch of stomachs.
