Oh my, aren't we the brave one? Personally I don't think there's any bravery involved in slacktivism on a nearly dead Usenet group. I think it would be more accurate if you thought of me as a looney and lazy leftie. For me this group is a lot like a video game. I get to choose which sections of the game I play

Just in case there is anyone here who is so dense that they missed it: Desaintless is trolling to send a message to the magarats. His message is that the current administration is weak and they aren't doing enough to protect you. You need a strong young leader who isn't afraid to stand up to the forces of evil who want to lead you into chaos. It isn't meant to be a real law. It's just part of his presidential campaign.

Annnnnnd, another troll just to point to all the dancing. No one has explained why we need to prevent people who were born in Cuba from owning farm land within 10 miles of a sewage plant. If anything, all I expect is more dancing. lqtm

So, I guess you were lying when you said you weren't interested. I
believe that means you're a coward, AND a liar. Thanks!

Thank you. I'm glad you can enjoy my twisted sense of humor. I have been told I need to be careful because I have a very "dry" sense of humor and some folks take me seriously. :-)

You're....ummm....like....welcome? However comma I allege that whoever
told you that metric uniquely possibly had an inefficacious
hygrometer. My own pseudoscientific at-a-distance observations
indicate that it's not just dry - it's desiccated.

Theory don't mean squat if it don't work.

I'm sorry. After all these years you would think I would have learned how to speak to absolutists. What I should have said it that I wasn't interested enough and didn't care enough to spend a lot of time studying that law. I did take a look at it. It's deliberately intended to be a big hairball.. That way Desaintless can claim he's just misunderstood. The same way he says it's a misunderstanding that he ban books. He only bans the woke ones. It isn't intended to be a real law because it isn't enforceable and the Florida Fascist knows this. He will enjoy the court battle. From his point of view he wins when he loses in court. It would be silly to spend a lot of time studying this thing because it's just a campaign document. There will be many more from all sides. I have better ways to spend my time.

Freakin' GOD DAMN. You absolutists are difficult to talk to and I 'm about ready stop trying. I have better things to do than study that law and I thought I made that clear to all but the most dense. It's a dumb law and doesn't need to be studied. I am absolutely certain that you haven't even glanced at it. As it turns out I have plenty of time to make fun of the crazies.

It might help you to understand if you pay more attention to the "weasel" words I frequently use. Or maybe not. I mostly use use mostly because I am not an absolutist. I'm frequently mostly this way or mostly that way. But I am often a bit the other way too. I am frequently several different directions all at once.
