Polls: Society & Politics

Their talking about re-enacting the draft and extending it to include those beyond the age limit of the current draft. This is not set to include women as of now so it will be a majority men and I’ve heard possibility of the age to be extended into the 40s or 50s.

What will be your response?

I'm sure they really don't mean China or Ukraine the actual countries

Americans, do you think displaying the confederate flag should be illegal?

Do you think misandry (man hating) is becoming a bigger problem in American/Western society?

Some cities are outlawing carrying weapons in public if a person is drunk or stoned - what do you think about this?

Fatherless America. It explains why it’s a failing nation. Also how Goldman sacs has predicted India to have a bigger economy than America by 2075 (India’s a 3rd world country).

America is somewhat matriarchal, ‘she/her’ society i should I say 😅

A very sensitive and broken society with no strong men to shut down the degeneracy.

I’ve noticed a few posts occasionally (almost always women) who think people being antagonistic to them on GAG is somehow “real bullying”.

I know what real bullying is because I experienced it viciously in my childhood. I was the youngest in my class, physically weak, part red head and I had undiagnosed severe ADHD.

But getting butthurt over a complete anonymous person who is absolutely no real life threat to you whatsoever is pathetic. Not saying I like trolls or trolling. I am usually considerate. But I’ve had plenty of people on here say nasty things to be over the years

But I’m not losing sleep over it. Who gives a shit. They don’t know my real identity or where I live. I’m not stupid enough to post real photos of myself on here either. Never done that. I just block them out if they really are a troll. And I don’t consider somebody who just disagrees with me or tells me what I don’t want to hear “a troll”. Real trolls are easy to spot. Easily to block. They just usually spout off some useless nonsense.

But I notice it’s usually (but not always) women on here who act pathetically oversensitive. Especially if it’s about body shapes or political issues.

If you don’t like what people say you can block or leave. But say “words are violence“ is beyond pathetic. And this is coming someone who got bullied daily back back when I was in grade/middle school.

I know what a real bully is and they aren’t trolls and especially not just people who tell you what you don’t want to hear.

I don't know. I am not going to argue qualifications with you. If you think you know either wy, kindly tell me how it is you figured that out.

I got super f*ckin upset at my mother and stepfather after my stepfather never said good morning to me back, that my pan that I used for my Arabic eggs (he is Armenian and HATES Arabic culture) is "trash." I was cooking ejjeh.

I had yet another blowout and said "f*ck n*ggers" and "f*ck Trump supporters" under the same breath. I said "H*il Biden" and "H*il H*tler" also. My brother is almost 12 and very scared of such dangerous acts I have caused, even threatening to kill a cat.

I was excluded from ever going to today's vacation event because of my behavior, but even behaviors prior to THIS particular incident.

I yelled, but my stepdad did even more of the yelling likely at my brother. He was scared too but he didn't say not to use racist language. I'm shocked.

I told my mom that my stepdad is racist and a Nazi, she said no and that maybe "I" am the Nazi because I did that hand salute. I pointed out that he was racist for talking trash about BLM. Mom said "we don't support BLM! All lives matter!"

I said, Black lives matter doesn't mean All lives don't matter. Jeez, she takes things so literally, I said. She was like, whatever.

I swear to God my Armenian family HATES HATES HATES black people AND ESPECIALLY transgender people. Until they start supporting BLM, I won't stop using certain words.

My dad is very supportive of the black community, in most cases.

I don't know. I am certainly not going to be like some conservatives who have no idea what dementia is or what it actually looks like, and who nevertheless insist that Biden has Dementia based on their uneducated observations.

That said - "Trump was then asked for his date of birth, and tripped over his words again. At first, he said “seven seven,” before correcting himself and saying “77”.

This is a clang association, or perseveration (hard Neuropsych signs), or perhaps he just misspoke, as we all do. It is NOT a sign of Dementia at all. It may be a sign of something else.

What do you think?
