Character limits in social media have oversimplified our perspectives of others and has exacerbated the tribalism inherent to the internet age. This reduces perspectives down so that they can be lumped in with vocal extremists and allows us to declare someone unfit for serious discussion. Once no longer obligated to take them seriously, the social currency of the platform can be used to censor them near entirely. I just want to mention that I put up this profile message almost 4 years ago now and of all the people who have ever claimed to desire dialogue on major issues, zero have ever shown interest in having dialogue outside of comments. If I can ask anything of you all it would be to never assume 140 characters is enough to know what someone is thinking. Be good to each other and if you want to do more than butt heads with internet strangers, you should probably do it somewhere other than imgur. I've been here 9 years and trust me it's never been a good place for that.

Americans are only 50% racists/pedophiles if your polling sample is the Biden family tree.

The Tankies keep voting for the biggest commie in the room so the DNC rigs it to put an establishment dem up front and just hope it works.

Neither 2nd term trump or 50-year politician Biden even vaguely qualify as a reset button. This is business as usual, just with extra riots.

Old cards aren't usually rare because of how overprinted they were. Some of those might be worth 1 or 2 bucks.

The laptop hard drive is what's important. The passport is where they recover the data to. It literally says "attempt data recovery".

You'll find no reasonable people here. Move along op.

The mere notion that you think flippantly commenting on usersub political shitposts counts as making a deal out of anything says a lot.

I work from home, I don't go anywhere I don't need to, and I wear a mask when I do. Fuck me that I ask the same of the people making rules.

I loved the movie, but in the book the ghosts lacked the ability to kill and only scared away the corsairs so aragorn could lead his army.

Anything truly confidential you won't hear about with or without this measure so it seems more spiteful than anything else.

leaks, someone who wasn't supposed to talk about it did. It's really not much and is more likely just a stunt to peeve the media.>>

This is speculation, but I believe by delivering the information confidentially to only the people meant to see it, you have a higher >>

People don't act like people in mobs. You can't just ask them to do something reasonable or converse peaceably.

Affirmative action is the opposite of what MLK wanted.
