No, he thinks every state ID costs $20,000, requires dozens of trips to the state capital of three states, and require the person to name the latest Superbowl champions.
At least you are paying attention to issues for longer than the latest gotcha story on CNN or MSNBC. I doubt the AC I responded to would get half as close as you on the first quote, and couldn't remember the second.
I'm not defending Trump, by the way. As I've said, I plan to vote for Jill Stein with the Green Party. I just can't stand the brain dead cheerleaders for either Trump or Hillary, who can't think for themselves. It's just a high school football game to them - My team rocks! Your team sucks!
I was happy that my daughter voted for her first election this year, for Bernie Sanders.
I doubt you can even type two sentences he spoke, without having to look them up. And then, you won't find the ones you think he spoke, even though all your sources have been 'quoting' him extensively.
Did Trump tell them he was glad their muslim son was killed? Did he tell them to burn their 'gold star'? What exactly did he say to someone who is spreading a political message for Trump's opponent?
Even the big money bags like the Koch Brothers won't touch the guy. He's willfully castrating the GOP's ability to raise money and campaign. He is probably the worst candidate for a major political party in fifty years, if not ever.
Why are you so upset that he isn't sucking up to billionaires for campaign contributions?
I think he means it is difficult because of the uneven surface.
Otherwise, he may have dentures, and also had his scrotum ripped off in a gruesome skateboarding accident (that also explains the 'has no teeth' part).
So, you agree that rich white kids never commit crimes either, since their families buy their way out of trouble?
Get a grip. The known facts show that Clinton committed several actions that are covered by US laws. The fact that a political elite wasn't charged, doesn't mean she didn't do far more than a parking infraction.
By the way, what "treason" did Trump do? Since he isn't even in office, and hasn't transferred secrets to (or through negligence, allowed national secrets to be received by) foreign/enemy states, what did he do that is treasonous? Oh, he asked Russia to turn over the emails they already have? Or do you really think he asked the Russians to hack a server that is already decommissioned? Are you that stupidly partisan?
For the record, I am not a Trump supporter. I will probably vote for Dr. Jill Stein, again. Have fun in your oligarchy, you seem to enjoy it.
Again, claiming you and yours have the monopoly on "LIFE", yet here you are trolling nerds on a nerd site. You are way more pathetic than we nerds are.
I have several sets of flat, phillips, allen, and torx drivers, but only one set of security torx, tri-wing, snake-eye, and pin-head drivers.
Only one? I have two sets. Because the first set I needed a few years ago didn't have a small enough secure torx bit for another project I got assigned to. I forget at the moment if I needed a 5 or 7 secure torx, but the set only went to the size above what I needed. So I spent a week looking at other sets to find one with the smaller size. And I've never even had to use the triwing, pin head, spanners, etc. from either set.
Have you ever installed a plain Windows version on a newly built system? If so, did it need drivers for several features? Sounds like you are comparing a vanilla Linux installation to a fully integrated Windows installation on a Dell or HP system, where the drivers are of course already there.
I noticed that issue as well. Googleing for Neptune, shows it is roughly 2.8 billion miles from the sun, and this new object is stated to range from 3.1 billion to 7.5 billion.
Well, one way to reply to a post calling out confirmation bias... is to double down on the confirmation bias.
You have a funny term to refer to what would properly be labeled as 'observation of leftists, on social media and in real life'.
Apparently I get to represent all liberals now
Only if you are unable to parse my phrase, "Should I follow suit,...", which limits the following phrase to a hypothetical question. But I guess such subtlety is wasted on leftists. (See, that is using your inability to read to claim all leftists are ignorant as well.)
(or at least the ones you don't like, with that bit of no-true-scotsman mixed in under cover of "I didn't mean everybody").
I'm not allowed to clarify my point that you have such a hard time understanding? Considering my original post was simply comparing attitudes and actions of nondescript left-wingers and right-wingers in the post I replied to. Since I wasn't the one who established the general groups under discussion, I certainly feel I have the right to make that clarification. Sorry if that upsets you.
Let's get back to your original claim, which can be distilled to 'liberals conform more than conservatives'.
Oh, wait a minute. I begin to see your problem. After writing all that above, I realize upon re-reading this line, that you simply are trying to argue the wrong claim. You think it is a discussion of whether one group or the other conforms to the expected norm. But that wasn't Ungrounded Lightning's argument, nor mine. UL said that those on the left "apply social pressure to each other to conform", and in response to (I assume) your question about right-wingers, I voiced my support of UL's argument, and provided an example.
I stand by my claim that leftists do much more to force their views on society, even on other leftists, than rightists do. That has nothing to do with whether right-wingers (AKA conservatives) by their nature want to keep things the way they are (also known as 'to conserve', funny how that is implied in the label 'conservative').
Interesting. Since I voted for Obama in 2008, and for Dr. Jill Stein of the Green Party in 2012, facts which I have stated repeatedly, I always wonder why people on the left insist on labeling me "conservative" off one data point, such as you just did.
Should I follow suit, and extrapolate that all people on the left are dense bigots, who think anyone who doesn't agree with them 100% of the time must be a fucking right-wing nutjob conservative?
Oh, wait a minute. That was my point I made already, or nearly so. Not everyone on the left is as stupid and bigoted as you have shown yourself to be. The liberals that just want to live their lives in peace, and think government has a role in that, aren't of the group I am pointing out. I do believe that most liberals in this country are of that mindset. Specifically, the activists and professional protesters are exactly the group I was describing in my above comment. Also the useful idiots such as yourself.
While there are right-wingers that have similar intolerances, such as the Westboro Babtist Church morons, only a useful idiot such as yourself could ignore the massive violent protests staged by the left and far-left about everything from world financial groups, to gay rights, to police shooting criminals of a particular skin color. They even protest their own protests, for not being left wing enough.
So, please reply, and give me more confirmation of my theory of how the leftists sees anyone who doesn't agree with themselves on every issue.
> Many left-wingers apply social pressure to each other to conform to certain behavioral templates. This includes agreeing with a number of ideological points, regardless of whether they are consistent with observed reality - or each other.
But only the left-wingers do this? The right wingers never do?
Not nearly to the same degree. Either in context of what is considered 'heretical action', or of the reaction and emotion involved in correcting the straying member.
A recent example was the gay pride parade in Toronto that was halted because the Black Lives Matter crowd didn't think there were enough blacks represented. Because you know that when you think of Toronto, you think of its great African Canadian population. And specifically about its gay African Canadian population.
I've had mod points several times in the last few months. Since I'm not a paid shill for anyone, I don't see how they think getting them means more than "You have the temporary ability to make comments you like more visible."
The submission said they want to move Java to the Cloud, but I already received a patent on doing Java-ey things on the Cloud. They need my permission first, and pay a hefty licensing fee if they want to put Java on the Cloud.

I don't think anyone voted third party in 1859.
I think he means it is difficult because of the uneven surface.
Otherwise, he may have dentures, and also had his scrotum ripped off in a gruesome skateboarding accident (that also explains the 'has no teeth' part).
My friend Tommy and I studied that health condition when we were nine. The results were published for peer review on his headstone.
So, you agree that rich white kids never commit crimes either, since their families buy their way out of trouble?

He's an AC douche that rants endlessly on Slashdot against nerds, while claiming he's a professional with a real job and everything.
Can you name him? If you can't, then probably not.

By George, I think you've got it.
I noticed that issue as well. Googleing for Neptune, shows it is roughly 2.8 billion miles from the sun, and this new object is stated to range from 3.1 billion to 7.5 billion.
I don't know where they get the 20 factor.
But AU isn't exactly 'sciencey', is it?
I'll see your few scholarly research papers, and raise you several violent protests that you have missed. Even leftists have to worry about leftists, as I stated.
Further, I can show that leftist people and groups support the protests.
