I tell you what—I'll break this down into three parts.More serious than not. Might have been just a teeny, weenie bit hyperbolic.
I love this. Nothing says "I need to feel better about myself" than associating attributes of successful people to one particular group over another. Aside from that, we are where we are in today's politics in large part to people rejecting the introspection and going all in on instinct and gut feeling. This is a significant element of Trump's appeal to his base. It's fair to say it sure as shit ain't some notion of thoughtful introspection.You guys need to spend a little more time on introspection. It's a common little practice among successful people that promotes personal growth.
Victimhood. The Right hates this about the Left. Yet here you are, a victim of something of which you, yourself, are guilty. Aside from that, both "sides" rip on each other, both "sides" express indignation and outrage in response. One who practices introspection, I would think, would be very unlikely to make this statement such as you stated it.Lefties rip on everyone from the right at will, ad nauseam, and it's no big thing. Righties rip on one dumbass on the left and you guys lose your minds and want to start limiting free speech.
You go from an expression of indignation over Lefties ripping on Righties, to this. Introspect on that.Typical libtard response.

Not sure where to start with all this.I tell you what—I'll break this down into three parts.
I was doing no such thing. Introspection is an activity, not an attribute. You either do it, or you don't. Your nonsensical response here - and it is nonsensical - would seem to be the product of a fundamental inability to comprehend written English. I was simply making an observation of a well documented fact.I love this. Nothing says "I need to feel better about myself" more than associating attributes of successful people to one particular group over another.
You can say that again.Aside from that, we are where we are in today's politics in large part to people rejecting the introspection and going all in on instinct and gut feeling.
The topic of the conversation was Ocasio-Cortez, not Trump. I know you didn't bring him up first, but this is a deflection regardless.This is a significant element of Trump's appeal to his base. It's fair to say it sure as shit ain't some notion of thoughtful introspection.
This is patently false. This is like saying the Right believes there are no victims. That would be idiotic. I don't see a need to expound on this nonsense.Victimhood. The Right hates this about the Left.
This again is patently false. The suggested victimization I was referring to was the opinion based repression of speech suggested by Hoosier. I understand he very likely was being intentionally sardonic.Yet here you are, a victim of something of which you, yourself, are guilty.
This is true.Aside from that, both "sides" rip on each other, both "sides" express indignation and outrage in response.
As I originally stated, I was being hyperbolic. Suck i up and deal with it.One who practices introspection, I would think, would be very unlikely to make this statement such as you stated it.
Another patently false statement. Again, my "indignation" - which isn't what it was but I'll accept it as reasonable that you might assume such if you're prone to indignation yourself - was over the suggested repression of speech, not the criticism of people on the Right.You go from an expression of indignation over Lefties ripping on Righties, to this. Introspect on that.
I'm not sure what it takes to get something into your head. Here are two verbatim quotations from that link:And that link just links the other link (which didn't back up said stipulation) while trying to connect said "democratic socialists" to Venezuela (which it doesn't do either)..........but it is an op-ed after all
MAYBE when discussing the history of Economics, but I took both Macro and Micro (granted ~25 years ago) and we never once discussed Marx, et. al.
Heard from a good source the new rep from iowa Amy F. Got drunk as a skunk and fell down some stairs her first visit to DC.
Media ignored.[/QUOTE)
Amy F? Iowa has three women reps?
91, you nailed it.I honestly feel bad for her, I really do. She is extremely young and got thrown into this world while not ready at all. She just says things and doesn't know what she's talking about. There's an argument to be made for a lot of the things she associates herself with but does an absolutely horrendous job of making her argument.
Just needs to do a little sexual assaulting and she’ll be ready for the Supreme Court.
Repeat a lie enough times, and it becomes the truth.You mean sexual assault accusation without a single point of validation or truth to it? Right?
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sexually assaulted me at a small party about 10 or 12 years ago. I don’t remember when it happened or where it happened. I don’t remember how I got to the party or how I got home afterward. I remember that I probably went swimming earlier that day. And there was music at the party.Just needs to do a little sexual assaulting and she’ll be ready for the Supreme Court.

My best friend was there but he doesn’t have any recollection of the party or any recollection of ever meeting AOC at any social gathering. He didn’t even realize I had left abruptly and never called me afterward to find out why I left early without him.
There you go. Ocasio-Cortez is now a rapist and she’s all set to serve on the Supreme Court.
You’re welcome.
Three friends, actually. Evidently I’m the only person who has any recollection of that night.Was she with a friend who also denied it?

Oh, she’s totally a rapist.Well if i was a libtard senator i’d believe you.
And your posts on this forum are the "anonymous letter" that you will forward to your senator. I suggest you do a lie detector test first.Three friends, actually. Evidently I’m the only person who has any recollection of that night.
No probs. They’re easy to beat and my attorneys will cover the cost.And your posts on this forum are the "anonymous letter" that you will forward to your senator. I suggest you do a lie detector test first.
I'm not sure what it takes to get something into your head. Here are two verbatim quotations from that link:
"Despite my working-class immigrant roots, I am concerned by the popularity of socialism within my party. On the night of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s victory in New York, I thought her use of the term was a misnomer. Then I began studying the views of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the rapidly growing national organization she belongs to, and was disturbed by what I learned."
"As someone who spent years defending Democrats from "socialista" charges, I understand why people roll their eyes when Cuba and Venezuela are mentioned alongside democratic socialism, but to reject the comparison simply because we don’t like those countries' outcomes misses the point of why they turned out the way they did. I’m under no illusion that increased access to health care and education will turn us into the Venezuelan capital Caracas, but it’s foolish to believe that democratic socialists — who promise to end capitalism — would be satisfied with Medicare for all, if given the reins of power."
