Roman Senators never threatened to prosecute Caesar's legions for what they had done in Gaul. They only threatened to prosecute Caesar. Tom Steyer is calling for something 10000x more radical than what convinced Caesar's legions to march on Rome and end the Republic.

@romanhelmetguy The Vatican is a woke cesspool, and has been for decades. And the Pope is a fallible, human man, full of corruption.

Algerians when Algeria became 13% French: “We should kill all the French.”
The Pope: “That was good.”
Frenchmen when France becomes 13% Algerian: “We should slow down the rate at which we accept more Algerians.”
The Pope: “This is evil.”

In the 1960s, Algerian Muslims violently expelled the European pied-noir community. Europeans made up 13% of Algeria's population. In just a few years, most were gone because staying meant death. Today, people either ignore that this happened or consider it a good thing. They want the same to happen to the Boers and to many others.

@MillennialWoes How about neither. You aren't required to have binary thoughts.
English

@PeasantKyr People sometimes being wrong about something being a slippery slope, doesn't make it a fallacy. Many things in personal life are a slippery slope, like drug use, or spending money. A fallacy implies that there is a inherent fault in calling upon a certain argument.
English

@MilesTrav Not every usage of slippery slope is about social or political movements.
“If we buy a dog, we might end up deciding to buy another, and soon our house will be filled with dogs!”
That’s the fallacy. It’s a broader idea of one thing leading to more of the thing.

@Utahdesert @Running_Gag_2 @imPenny2x Actually it's worse than that. I've seen people go from the sensible position of potentially removing severe threats from society with capital punishment, when there is absolute proof of crime. To advocating for torturing anybody who is suspected of something that they hate.
English

@MilesTrav @Running_Gag_2 @imPenny2x So once you have capital punishment for murder, there will be a slippery slope as people push to have capital punishment for other crimes?
English

@Utahdesert @Running_Gag_2 @imPenny2x Simple, people always want more, and once people see they can get some, they will push it further. There doesn't need to be a "test" or "theory" to sound intelligent, it is obvious, and observable by anybody.
English

@MilesTrav @Running_Gag_2 @imPenny2x Even if your position is that this is universal, you still need at a minimum a logical argument for why this happens. (And then to test that theory, but let's start with just the logic of it.)

@basedganyu I'm White, and generally would like my children to look like me, my parents, my grandparents. Plus, with some exceptions, whenever I meet somebody mixed race, they tend to have a whole lot of identity problems. I wouldn't put that on my children.

@DHemswick @Amalgamyte_VT Fair enough. If every libertarian I met was reasonable, as you seem to be, I would never use lolbert again, and probably join them. Have an amazing day sir.

@MilesTrav @Amalgamyte_VT Well sounds like we agree more than disagree.

@RepThomasMassie Careful buddy, they drop estrogen pills in those bottles.

As Chairman of the House 2A Caucus, I will testify today before @SenRandPaul's Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
The hearing will examine ongoing threats to Americans' right to keep and bear arms.

@FlashTrade @unusual_whales You say this as a joke, but boomers actually believe my 12 year old Ford is some brand new car...because they think old means 80s or 90s still...and I wash/wax it.
English


@DurhamWASP Well, I don't know, but here in America, it had the positive effect of pushing all White people out to the countryside, trying to escape their own cities full of foreigners and thugs. lol
English

@DHemswick @Amalgamyte_VT White immigrants also should be restricted. The average German or Italian may have an easier time integrating, but still don't typically believe in our values.
To be clear, I'm not for no immigration. I'm for a paused, followed by reinventing the whole system.
English

You mean non white immigrants?
But we barely had any of those during the new deal. And even when great society programs began it wasn’t nearly at the level it is now. White people supported those measures.
I’m aware of the issue that other cultures don’t understand our individual rights and freedom perspective.
And I agree, we shouldn’t be bringing in those people for that reason among other reasons.
English

@DHemswick @Amalgamyte_VT I disagree, because the immigrants vote for, advocate for, and socially expect; taxation, safetyism, welfarism, and government funded education. That is the point of contention. America is unique, most other cultures don't believe in freedom as we do. Otherwise I agree with you.
English

Okay well I can agree with that, and as I said if you read my very first post again you’ll see that was my position all along. I have no problem ending 99% of migration.
Hell fine let’s end 100% of it but it won’t fix our biggest issues. Ending taxes, safetyism, welfarism, government funded education will do that.
That’s why I emphasize not going too crazy about immigration. It’s not our biggest source of problems.
English

@redeemed_zoomer Most people are incapable of thinking outside of binaries. It is either 1 or 0. Our enemies have used this to their advantage, and created a choice that forces the average fool, into picking one or the other...instead of their own faith, nation, or ideals.
