I may not agree with your politics but I would never call you a moron because you have different views.
Morons: People who wish people on the other side of the political isle gets Covid-19 (left or right).

Morons: People who have to be "talked down" over a post they don't agree with (left or right).

If they hadn't been "talked down" what were they going to do? Go and beat OP up?, yea, that's a moron.

I highly doubt Trump would have personally knowingly allowed illegals to work in his businesses.

The reason Trump was able to run so many businesses so successfully is because he was able to delegate a lot of the day to day operations to others. Maybe we should look at how many illegals worked for Mike Bloomberg or George Soros.

Nope. They don't have to be the HR person in order to be responsible. They are responsible for setting policy for their companies. That is part of delegating as head of the chain of command. I think you know that. And yes, it applies to them all, D or R.

I've unfriended one person ever on FB, a woman I've known since I was 8-years-old. She posted a video of her 2-year-old on FB; naked, sitting on a coffee table in the living room, playing with and literally eating her own feces. She and her husband could be heard laughing on the video and kept recording rather than doing anything about it. My wife in a reply to the post questioned why they permitted this, let alone posted a video of it, for which she was viciously shamed by nearly 30 people neither of us knew, for not having had a child of her own yet. One person commented that they hoped my wife was impregnated via rape so she could know the struggle of parenting. Our mutual (former) friend laughed in response. Truly sick and totally out of character for the woman we thought we knew.

Last election cycle, I lost friends due to criticism of Clinton even though i wasn't pro-Trump. A lot of people these days think in binary when it comes to socio-political issues. It's sad.

Yesterday people were posting that Plandemic video and everyone who posted it, a swarm of left-wingers came in and called it a "MAGA Conspiracy Video" and were cussing out the people who posted it.

I mean, who knows if what she posted is 100% legit in that video. But to curse someone out for simply posting a video link, to me, is peak insanity.

Also, I think the term conspiracy theory lost its merit and is the new "racist". Having a different pov isn't a conspiracy. It's having another point of view.

This is coming from a classical liberal.

Hah same here. I had friends who got mad at me because I wouldn't go out of my way to worship Hill.
