I would highly encourage you to look at the world around you, in which babies and infants die painful deaths in their dozens every day, and ask yourself "why does God will this?" You will tell me, of course, that these babies and toddlers, who God deems fit to die painful, horrible deaths, are sinn...

I'm not claiming they're parroting CNN

D who must not be named was never particularly extreme in his views. He left because he was having a very difficult time at home and vented his frustrations in a foolish attack on the site's leadership. Krellin had his own issues for which the forum and its debates were a kind of escape. Al Sweareng...

Well, you would do :razz:. The changes made to the forum back when we moved away from the old style created an environment fundamentally hostile to any view that deviates from the mainstream, where the mainstream is broadly defined by US liberal media. As this has been in place for some time now the...

My preference, for some time, was to move away from the topic I said I liked the res evil movies and your response was "Yeah, women suck and can't shoot the guns though". Wow... You genuinely can't read something without reimagining it as having some fantasy meaning that fits your ideology. What a ...

I have made no demands of you at all, Doom. I have criticised your enthusiasm for sexism, expressed a few of my views, and mentioned to JECE (as he seems extremely interested for some reason) what sort of arguments would stand a higher chance of changing my mind. Whether or not you wish to try doing...

Saying something exists isn't expanding the point. If she wanted to expand the point she could have said who has lowered lowered the rate of crime and by how much, and what strategies they took that might have contributed to this. How it compares with the rates in similar countries that didn't adopt...

Sorry for leaving behind my previous attempt at being above this thread- but curiosity got the better of me and I decided a response would be solid practice for press games That is indeed what the forum is for. Glad there are still people around who recognise it. :-) Thank you so much for it. I wou...

9am? If you want my vote you'd have to start at dawn

Sun arise come every mornin'
Bringin' back the warmth to the ground

You don't think that this new wave of (I hesitate to use the word feminist as it doesn't resemble much at all of traditional feminism) thinking is a product of left wing philosophy? Not all lefties have been infected by the madness, but the origins are very much on that side of the spectrum. It's li...

You can dismiss the harm done to women and men by the ideological dogma of the supposedly progressive left all you want, yoyo, but I will stand for equality and treating individuals with respect regardless.

Nice try? What are you talking about? It was yet another sexist statement after a series of others. If Doom wanted to expand on that point she could have, and it may have made for a more constructive conversation. If it was meant to be a reminder that women are considered ignorant then it failed aby...

We're expecting a user spike over the next few weeks also which adds to the mix.

Exciting! Where would they come from?

Refugees following a glorious direct assault on PlayDip. Huzzah!

You can save your sexist dribble about evidence being somehow feminine for someone else. I believe that you noticed the dripping sarcasm and simply ignored it as an excuse to call Doom427 sexist. Proud of you, chap! An excuse? I called Doom427 sexist because that's what they are. All that nonsense ...

Answer: lose all land gained since the start of the war. Define "the start of the war". I imagine many Ukrainians will agree with you, but they may well be agreeing different things. One massive headache for the West that isn't given nearly enough coverage is there are now an enormous number of Ukr...

Indeed, the moment has passed

It wasn't remotely subjective

I'm a tad confused. This seems to have been reported quite extensively across all the usual news outlets.

Pre-invasion it was roughly 60-40, or maybe closer to 55-45, now across the whole country it is closer to 90-5. And in the areas occupied by Russia, the hatred of Russia is very high. Though some are not willing to b'é open about it, because if they openly express anti-Russia sentiments and Russia ...

But in all seriousness, do you really think that any of these areas support Russia's invasion in the present moment? It's highly unlikely. However there's a massive difference between supporting or opposing an invasion, and how they might like the end of the invasion to play out. I suspect that a l...
