Pistolpete:
Marriage was the thing for those born before 2010.
There’s just fewer and fewer 10-year-olds getting married these days.

24The choice of being alone has never been clearer.
by pistolpete insomething i've noticed is that marriage was the thing for those born before 2010. but today's culture of divorce laws slanted to favor women has forced men to think carefully before signing the marriage certificate.
most of my friends have no intentions of getting married.
all of them have gotten vasectomies, so there is no chance of being blamed for a pregnancy.

Do You Think White People Are Being Discriminated Against?
by minimus insome call it reverse discrimination.
whatever you want to refer to as, in your opinion, are white people being unfairly picked on?
it seems acceptable that if you are white you are viewed with disdain.

It doesn't matter if it's employment quotas, or different admission-marks for university or some other accreditation, if it's a different system based on race then it's racism.
I don’t recall saying otherwise. Not seeing any increase of that in my country. Your mileage may vary.
That makes anyone supporting it or not working to remove it a racist.
That’s like saying anyone not actively working to cure cancer is pro-cancer.

Not broadly. If you pay attention to nonsense (think 'Buzzfeed' and tedious activism groups ), you will see more racist rhetoric against white people. But away from the nonsense, day-to-day racism against white people doesn't seem to have increased. The US is a bit nuts about this kind of thing though so it may be different there.

What Do You Think of Dr. Fauci?

Your claims about the death rates in UK, Belgium and Italy are also incorrect. Unless you’re comparing them to an arbitrary subset of the developed countries that are doing better, though that’s not particularly meaningful.

you’re just cherry-picking data now. What about Belgium? Italy? UK? They have twice and even three times the death rate.
🤦♂️ Feel free to quote where I supposedly suggested that the US is the worst in the world. You said Australia’s was a special case because it is remote. I provided countries that are not remote that also have significantly fewer deaths per capita. At no point did I suggest that no other countries have similar problems to US.

The US has a lot of community transmission so it’s not just about international travel. Also, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Japan and Norway are developed and have much fewer Covid related deaths per capita than the US.
The fact that Australia is “mostly empty” doesn’t actually help your position either because it only demonstrates that the majority of the population are concentrated in a relatively small area, where community transmission would be more likely when not accounting for other factors. Also, Australia’s smaller population is not directly relevant when considering deaths per capita.

Another bad faith video
by DATA-DOG injust sharing this for all the people who hated me saying it.
funny how truth finally comes out if those of us who care enough to become lightning rods don’t let up.
it’s taken a year, but the left wing ( not the same as a traditional liberal ) nut-job bs is becoming quite evident, and this will continue across multiple subjects as time passes.

@Jeffro: this is a forum for ex-JWs, I’m sure the WTBTS has warned you about us apostates, you know thinking for ourselves and not listening to what a big organization has to say on how people live their lives. Tisk, tisk, hope your elders don’t find out.
Since I’m neither a JW nor endorsing any particular advice or ordinance from any organisation, that statement is particularly stupid.

No real opinion of Fauci, but the US has had about 1700 COVID related deaths per million people whereas Australia has had 36 COVID related deaths per million people. So it seems either that people in the US are not as good at controlling infection rates or they’re much more liberal in the determination that a death is COVID related.

It’s mostly just parroting and citing verses out of context.
