  1. yup, because everything they're doing at that point through a campaign contribution has a giant "Trump" sticker on it.

    it'd be like, you got two baseball teams. throw money at either side, they'll buy better trainers, buy better uniforms, buy better equipment. fine. but don't go sneaking into the opponent's equipment shed to fucking sabotage their equipment.

  2. Ironed out my position. any corporation can say "the editorial board of x endorses this or that candidate" but that's the end of it. anything more, promoting puff pieces, tamping down on other pieces, charging less of one side or the other. that leads to directions that i think would make our democracy weaker.

  3. now that i think about it, it would be fine if they or any other corporation just put in their banner "the editorial board of facebook endorses clinton" or whatnot. declare it loud and bold for everyone to hear and know, and if that were the limit that should be fine.

    if they were to give sweetheart rates for advertising to one side of the other, i'd have a problem, if they were at all subtle with their "endorsement" that would be a problem. tell me what you think, fine. don't try to make me think what you think though.

  4. i may not be the typical american but i say, i hope they don't step in.

    be anti-trump on your own time. As i'm not particularly thrilled of newspapers endorsing a candidate I'm not thrilled of any corporation endorsing a candidate. Or do they think this wouldn't contribute to a fucking hostile workplace for people who don't share their POLITICAL opinion?

    As an american, i'm not going to let anonymous, or facebook, even think they can tell me what to do. I'd vote for trump in protest of facebook, if i weren't already voting for trump in protest of anonymous.

    i do it just to spite them.

    guilt, guilt the hell out of her.

    you're taking from other people, your own enjoyment and even the makers of the film. A lot of people spent a lot of time to get everything just so in a work to get you feeling things. It's a disservice to their work to not give it your full attention.

    unless it's bay or sandler... in which case, fuck you both for keeping them going :)

    yeah, more or less. the point was, even absent that, white on white violence, and christian on christian violence is probably substantially greater in total numbers for the simple fact that there's a shit-ton of christians and white people.

    that's like saying, white people are responsible for the most death in America... factor in the civil war and the fact that there are just more white people... and it's a forgone conclusion.

    tf2 isn't pay-to-win. they've done their best, and a decent job of making all individual things side-grades and not pure upgrades. and the drop rate is good enough that you can usually craft any weapon you've gotta have any way.

    you do not need to pay additional money to unlock any of the non-cosmetics you're looking for. unless you're classifying the cosmetics as a core part of the experience... in which case i think we're talking two different "games"

    the point being, everything is unlockable with minimal effort except for purely cosmetic items.
