I genuinely don't care and only posted because at first glance the math seemed very wrong, then I added the correction rather than delete the post.

Mind blowing, I realize.

I've seen more conservative protests than I can count (usually with Confederate flags) on overpasses and major events in quite large cities. So don't even pretend the BS you just spewed is the case. You just must not get out much because you're too busy ranting about it on the internet.

Believe whatever you want, just don't be disingenuous about it, and plug up actual conversations on topics at hand.


Hanging flags on bridges is way worse than setting city blocks on fire.

Again, Mr Obtuse. A conversation about about if the President made a stupid comment doesn't have to devolve into a "well at least we're more right than they are so it's OK."

I guess you forgot about Jan 6th. Jesus. Just don't be disingenuous in your arguments and say "conservatives would *never*". Nope, they'd never riot and loot in the Capitol building. Must have forgot about that one.

(And I'm conservative. I just think you F16ers pop over with the most ridiculous arguments, mostly not well thought through at all, just because you want to defend something, that shouldn't really be defended bc we should be doing better, and your entire argument comes down to "at least we're not them".)

It's genuinely amazing to me that anyone still buys all the Jan. 6th nonsense - but for a self proclaimed "conservative" to lap it up is truly an enigma.

So to sum it up, you do nothing but rant on the internet and to your friends.

Including about things like tariffs on entertainment, which you admit you know nothing about. And neither does the president, apparently. But you want to make calling that rant stupid into some argument about men competing in women's sports.

That about sum it up?
Yeah, I mean, unlike leftists, we don't block roads, airports, assault people, bus people to protest on campuses, destroy entire city blocks, identify and target certain brands of cars for destruction, stand on street corners screaming into bullhorns etc. We just try to be decent family people.

I will certainly address this head on if it ever becomes an issue re: my family, but for now, I will engage in free and open discussion with brainwashed liberals and vote. Bout all I can do. I know, you're used to people getting rowdy in the streets for their causes, but we don't do that. You'll never see conservatives screaming jews off campus of sitting like idiots and blocking major thoroughfares.
I see you haven't been to an A&M football game recently. There are always 2-3 street preachers we walk by leaving Kyle Field. Unless the the guys screaming repent or burn into a mic are one of those crazy leftists.
I didn't say ZERO conservatives ever do this. It is just FAR more common on the left. Trust me, I pass a Tesla dealership every day. Conservatives participate in such activities at a MUCH lower rate.

I mean we have dishonest/obtuse people on here actually arguing that the tiny fringe elements on the right protest/riot/agitate/destroy to near the same degree as the left. It's insane.

This is too easy. But it's fun to win arguments and debates, so that's why some of us keep coming back. Many of us are married, so, even when we win those debates, we can still somehow lose. It's therapeutic to come on here and just crush our ideological and political opps with stunning ease.

Crazy that they keep coming back for more.

The fact that you think you're "winning" in this conversation says a lot more about you than anything else.

Have you "crushed" anyone with ideological/political opps?

No.

Maybe you should go to therapy if you find online ranting therapeutic.

Is the topic at hand that Trump shouldn't go on unhinged rants about things that are/were never going to happen? That didn't make business sense for anyone?

Yes.

Are you smart enough to see that? (Well I have my opinion on that.)

Your therapy is on F16, or preferably an actual therapist.

Oh noes, some conservatives were standing on a bridge, holding flags. (Love how you try to tie conservatives to the Confederacy).

Get back to me when conservatives start burning down cities.

Lived in Dallas for almost 25 years. Never saw anything like this. My wife and I did walk by a black religious group in downtown a couple of years ago who were chanting that all white people must die. It was at the corner of N Akard and San Jacinto in front of Ross Tower to be specific.

That was pleasant.

"Just more dumbass Trump insanity," along with a couple other quick, negative examinations about his objectively stupid plan, is all I've said. No, I don't like him, but his "ability to own so much space" in my mind is non-existent. The effect he has on my day-to-day life is next to zero.

The inability of some of you to look in the mirror will never cease to amaze me. Seeing as, for years, F16 was ground zero for some of the most obsessively deranged Biden takes I've ever seen. Yes, he sucked too. I couldn't stand him either, especially toward the end of his term. But you would think he was Satan incarnate based on the sheer number of bat**** takes F16 leveled at him, all day every day for years on end. Never mind all the "Let's Go Brandon" gear, the chants, the conspiracy theories, etc. Did it match the Trump vitriol from the left? No. But it was still INCREDIBLY over-the-top, and he absolutely "owned space" in the minds of F16 nearly as much as Trump did in the minds of the left.

What do Biden and the left have at all to do with the subject of Trump announcing a dumb tariff then it being walked back the next day?

Nothing.

In a post about internet conversations being back and forth with multiple relies, you try to back out of it immediately.

The fact that the left never said anything when he bungled pretty much everything he touched or said.

Same for how Vice President Word Salad got installed as the candidate without any votes by a convention.

Same for how Biden wasn't in good enough shape to run again in July, but was totally fine to keep running the country until late January.

None of you criticized or even questioned decisions by the left.

As usual, people are pointing out your hypocrisy. You can't help it. It's a symptom of the condition. Hopefully there will be a cure someday.

I think you got lost (again).

(And I don't know who's "hypocrisy" you think you are pointing out, as I'm not on the left.)

You complained about someone's posting volume and now youre claiming youre being misrepresented.

Dude, you pulled out a calculator to pile on to a "zomg he's deranged" narrative. You invested yourself into a line of attack. And now youre claiming "no mas, no mas, I am an innocent bystander here. I dont deserve the snark *frowny face* "

Your reading comprehension is terrible.

I thought the math was wrong so posted that it would only be 5 posts per day over a large number of years, over a smaller period of time it would have been a lot of posts per day every day for years no matter what the topic. I then realized the poster had actually been here for quite a while so added the note to acknowledge my mistake rather than just deleting.

You then constructed this narrative in your head about some judgement I was making about F16 that you somehow derived from two sentences and wrote a snarky rant about it and now you want to continue an argument about it.

So again, really don't care, definitely don't care enough to engage in some debate about it, and the fact that you have an issue with someone stating they don't want to continue a discussion about it is kind of wild.

So, bye.
