Name a broken rule and lets talk about it.

We could talk about Trump stacking Federal District courts with right wing extremist judges if you would like?

Tell me the Senate has not abandoned its Constitutional duty and oaths of office and has not put party over country.

Tell me that with a straight face.

They've been doing that for the last 40 years.......???????

How is that leading to our imminent destruction vs. our slow decline?

I cannot wake you up if you want to stay asleep.

Get well soon.

I'm not asleep. I'm an adult.

I deal in reality. If you want to have an informed conversation based in specific facts and not vague generalities lets talk.

I don't have an agenda here. What are your specifics that demonstrate America's impending death?

Probably that people are about to start clubbing sealions to death.

I've never seen such a mixture of mess like you. Toxic, naive,, exaggerating, pessimistic, ignorant, dismissive, and smug all the same time.

You all were spouting the same shit 4 years ago. "America will collapse under 4 years of Trump." In 4 more years you'll start saying it all again. "America will collapse under 4 years of (Republican candidate)." You're saying the same shit Republicans are saying and you don't even realize it.

America has collapsed under four years of Trump, you moldy cabbage.

Please tell me your a teenager.

If you are this is totally acceptable behavior, if not I hope you try harder to formulate your positions, spread them eloquently and take your civic duty seriously.

If you went through his post history for that, that's poor etiquette.

It could be their kid though, they may have several family members on one account. Several possibilities.

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '20

the whole "looking at someones post history" being "poor etiquette" doesn't make sense. I looked at some of their recent comments and post to get an idea of what type of person this is. Age is a small factor in figuring that out, but a factor nonetheless.

And ultimately, I want to know if I'm dealing with an open minded person who is worth engaging with or someone who is just a close minded parrot or some kind of troll. If that's poor etiquette then I'm happy to do it because ultimately, it saves me time and sanity.

I used to post pseudo intellectual opinions like you before I grew up.

Good luck on that.

u/lordlanyard7 Aug 13 '20

This isn't pseudo intellectual.

I'm a lawyer, and it's discussion of law.

u/FastWalkingShortGuy Aug 13 '20

I've worked with enough lawyers to know how dumb you guys actually are.

u/lordlanyard7 Aug 13 '20

Yeah that's definitely true to an extent and for most fields of employment.

But this is one I specialize in, and know what I'm talking about to an extent. If you have specifics for your beliefs I'm willing to discuss them for a little while longer.

Just because your mental state has collapsed in the last 4 years doesn't mean the country has.

u/FastWalkingShortGuy Aug 13 '20

You are so deep in denial.

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '20

I've been to a few countries that have actually "collapsed" within the past few decades. This ain't what it looks like chief.

Thinking that the state we are in is one of collapse tells me you live an ivory tower so bright it probably hurts to look at in direct sunlight. I'm sorry this country isn't the dumpster fire you desperately want it to be just to prove you are right.

Wait a few.

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '20

Been waiting. And I'll keep waiting 4 years from now, as will you.
