Re: Qualifications for president
Thou dullard!!! The point is that in the past my use of the laughing icon was used as proof of laughing "at peoples POV and thoughts"...It was a rather selective persecution by the Mods since as I pointed out it happens regularly around here. Glad to help you grasp the point. No I never denied using the laughing icon...but somehow the mods and others projected their own thoughts on to my usage of the emoticon. That is on them as is their inconsistent claim at taking offense in seeing the emoticon.Ivy wrote:Thou hypocrite!!! Here is a quote from you on this thread:KLP wrote:Notice how Ivy uses the laughing emoticon yet the Mods don't have any issue with this. hmmm remember when laughing at someone was considered bad form around here?

I have never once in 10 years (or however long it's been) felt persecuted by the mods. Perhaps it's something about your behavior they'reKLP wrote:It was a rather selective persecution by the Mods since as I pointed out it happens regularly around here.
trying to help you understand and change...to help you communicate better on the board and avoid alienating others. Just something to think about.

Re: Qualifications for president
I am sure you haven't been challenged for your views, much like the NYT doesn't challenge much anything from the DNC. But yes, I agree with you that the Mods would prefer some sort of re-education camps or even silence when they find view points that do not align with their own. But then where is the fun in that?Ivy wrote:I have never once in 10 years (or however long it's been) felt persecuted by the mods.

Still, I am just glad in this case at least you didn't refute the assertion of fact. Speaking of which, have you come up with any counter Facts and Data to refute the economy is growing faster since the election of Donald Trump? I mean you were adamant that this POV was subjective on my part...so finding data to show the economy is doing worse that before ought to be something you have at the ready. No???

Re: Qualifications for president
KLP, you apparently never noticed that for a few years while I was still involved in church, I (embarrassingly, and that's a whole other story) leaned slightly to the right and agreed with you more often.....no, they didn't single me out back then, either. Honestly, from what I have seen, they have just tried to help you play better with others and have been extremely respectful in trying to work with you.KLP wrote:Ivy wrote:KLP wrote:II am sure you haven't been challenged for your views, much like the NYT doesn't challenge much anything from the DNC.
I have also told you I know that the stock market is doing well right now (my stocks are doing great), but that there are other things to consider that are at least equally important as the stock markets...such as the environment, access to decent health care, quality of leadership, human dignity, etc.

Re: Qualifications for president
My brother posted a political cartoon on facebook yesterday which applies somewhat - it showed a homeless man asleep on a bench, wrapped in newspapers against the winter cold.
The newspaper headline said things like 'corporate profits up 300%!' and 'stock market makes amazing gains!'
And the caption was something like: maybe we should stop judging the health of the economy by how well Wall Street/Corporate profits are doing.

History is the fiction we invent to persuade ourselves that events are knowable and that life has order and direction. That's why events are always reinterpreted when values change. We need new versions of history to allow for our current prejudices.
