In most countries, you'd be right to heap scorn on anyone feeling threatened by an emoji or an email.
But this is the US, where guns are easy and cheap to get, and people get routinely shot over the dumbest shit. Dude might be a bit of scaredy cat, but he's certainly not insane.
In a specific comment in a specific thread, but reading comprehension was never your strong suit.
But the best part is that you're using a joke where I compare Clinton to Hitler and the Democrats to the Nazis as evidence that I'm the one who's some sort of shill!
There's lots more
HAHAHAHAHAHA. You haven't even come up with one example yet. Fucking priceless.
Easy to understand the denial when you're not even aware of it
Please reread that sentence. Your word salad is approaching Trump-like levels.
This is pretty much standard practice in western law. If you can't be bothered to show up, the court's not going to waste time on you, they'll spend the extra time on someone who could be bothered to defend themselves.
You're still arguing from the tribalist's point of view.
This is coming from the guy who, in the other subthread sputters in rage when I make observations without attaching any personal value judgments whatsoever.
I've given you so many ways out, and all you do is project, project, project.
Not one bit, because you continually fail to how explain how all these wondrous things will happen. These are your arguments in a nutshell:
1: Smoke filled rooms!
2: You're all sheeple!
Should you care to expound further, feel free. Meanwhile, in my corner, I have an FCC ruling which has survived hefty legal challenges, is publicly and heartily endorsed as a good thing by the nominee for the Democratic Party. Further, no bookie in the world will give you good odds on the makeup of the Supreme Court changing in any way in the near future so as to endanger this new status quo.
So explain to me, in more detail than you've ever been able to muster, exactly what's going to happen that makes this a non-starter as an argument?
Her friends in the business will take care of things.
Hmm, a vague, meaningless sentence. You just can't bring yourself to say she'll order the FCC to reverse Net Neutrality. Wonder why that is...
Now then, what are you expecting from Hillary?
Depends on the down ballot races. Hillary + GOP Congress = Fuck all and lots of it. Hillary + Senate = holding the Obama line on financial affairs with a remote chance of small improvements. Hillary + Dem Congress = Might actually get some sensible gun laws up in this bitch.
Once again: This shit ain't hard. You're the one making it so.
ROFLAMO. I'm talking about Empire and you're talking about corrective measures. That's not how Empires fall.
As for the other thing, clutching your pearls at metaphorical blood on hands is so quaint.
One thing you precious, super-liberal snowflakes need to come to grips with is that civilization is a meat grinder. The only fundamental difference between say, The Third Reich and the Obama administration is number and orientation of the grist.
So when you and your indigo brothers act all shocked at how your Empire is maintained, it makes me giggle.
But then I remember that you probably wouldn't do much better if given the levers of that grinder (hell the odds are decent you'd make it worse), but that's never how you frame it, and that's disingenuous as fuck.
There is no perfect world. Treating everyone you meet like a sheep or a traitor because they won't buy into that delusion is the worst kind of elitism.
So fuck back off on your high horse. The rest of us are working here.
As I'm sure you're aware, there are blatant privacy issues with fb messenger.
Not that I really care, since I'm not on FB, but who gives a shit? Name one piece of software or platform that sees widespread, gen pop use that doesn't have some sort of privacy or security issue. I'll wait.

I wonder why they resist this
Competition is detrimental to profit margins.
Hey, you asked.

Only a total idiot would believe the polls.
I didn't know Karl Rove had a slashdot account.
An Ethos of evil
Well, yeah, that's the joke.
Then again, if you can't tell the difference between Hillary and Donald, or Nihilists and Nazis, maybe humour impairment isn't your problem.
Oh yeah...I've really gone out on a limb there.
Thanks for the data point that you're humour-deficient on top of all your other personal failings.
To paraphrase the great Walter Sobchak:
Trump! Fuck me. I mean, say what you want about the tenets of Hillary Clinton, Dude, at least it's an ethos.
It is when it's got so much mass!
Which was my point that so clearly went over your head.
How, exactly, did my post that supported your assertion with complementary evidence miss your point?
So far all you've expressed are value judgements.
The it should be trivial to quote them. I won't hold my breath.
Yeah, if you knew any teenagers circa 2005, every single one of them was using YouTube as their version of radio.
You're still arguing from the tribalist's point of view.

he "empire" is us It is maintained by us. That includes you.
Nope. I bailed on the developed world a while back. It's all yours.
Thanks, again, for not even attempting to answer any of my points! Don't ever change.

I find the belief that Clinton would be any better rather amusing, to say the least
So, Hillary gets into office...and does what exactly, regarding Net Neutrality?
Until you're no longer an empire.
IKR? Let's get outraged NOW about things first world leaders have been doing for centuries.

LOL. Dumbass ACs still think a red story banner means it's special. Here's a hint: It isn't. But you are.
You would think that chat is a solved problem by now.
It is solved. The problem is that the solution turned out to be Facebook Messenger.
Have you already forgotten about gamer gate?
We're trying, but you idiots keep bringing it up like it's the fucking Pentagon Papers or some such shit.
I'm telling you right now: Gamergate is going to slot right next to 'safe spaces' when future generations make fun of you.
And the sky is blue. Still don't mean shit.
