• Extremist Christian Keyboard Warrior Encourages More Attacks on Planned Parenthood
    50 replies, posted
I've been working on a video about how sensationalism is dangerous and how we as a society are always searching for something to be enraged about. I just have to muster up the strength to actually record myself without sounding like a douche. But yeah, I attribute the success of Donald Trump to sensationalism, and I'd sadly attribute any success this guy gets on a routine basis with how much popularity is generated with his outrageously controversial videos. I might use his stuff as an example. [editline]2nd December 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=JohhnyCarson;49229139]I have a hypothesis and a theory on how to counter the "crazies and assholes". Instead of shitting up the thread (like I did in fast forum) I would rather have help forming it if possible. Tell me if interested. Yes you re right. Attention is what they seeking. Thats one way.[/QUOTE] Just post it - if it's related then it's fine.
Oh god I didn't mean to rate it. I'm on iPad!! I dunno how to fix it!
[QUOTE=ZakkShock;49228599]Isn't this considered encouraging terrorism? Pretty sure thats a crime.[/QUOTE] The moment some loon decides to do something violent and tells everyone that he was inspired by this video the creator will duck into a corner and say "Well I didn't make him do any of this!". It should be a crime.
[QUOTE=agentfazexx;49229167]What's your hypothesis?[/QUOTE] Ok Please Please tell me if you get the gist of it. I'm trying to clarify. I tend to be incoherent. Ok here it is. Like one poster said, its the assholes we need to be concerned about Through out history, people tried to make ideas to get rid of bad people. At first Christianity was supposed make everyone good. That didnt work. Then atheism came along. We are finding out that isnt working. Then liberal ideas were supposed to make people nicety nice. Now that is dominant, we are finding out that doesnt work. It seems the root of all the problems seem to be assholes. wauterboi is a great example of a good person IN spite of his personal beliefs. There are others who exist who might share his beliefs and stances and would still be a jerk. So its the quality of the person or a certain type of person that makes life a living hell for everyone else. Provided that type of person is outnumbers the good people in massive quantities. The beliefs, ideas or morals of the person really don't matter. Its the type of person we dealing with. So the question is, what makes people into assholes or the traits of one, like the one in the OP? The first trait we all noticed is the need to seek attention through violence or other wise. While I am not a doctor, the need to be the center of attention sounds like the start of an emotional or mental disorder. I believe Narcissism would fit the bill. Am I incorrect?

People need to stop shunning those that want or ask for help with said mental issues. And more money needs to be funneled into mental health issues instead of knee-jerk bans and bandaid fixes that do nothing.
[QUOTE=Da Bomb76;49228678][url]https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/no-true-scotsman[/url][/QUOTE] Well, to be exact nobody has a de facto authority to deny that these are not christians and isis are not muslims. However other groups in the religion can denounce them, so that people don't assume they represent the majority. The point is while they technically are christians, it's deluded to assume they represent christians as a whole.
Assholes are also people who don't have mental health issues. I mean you can't blame everything on mental health. People become assholes through life experience. They get vexed and and bitter and turn to playing the blame game. Whether it is because of upbringing or social injustices experienced or even following a crowd, people become assholes because they feel things aren't the way they want them to be and therefore everyone else is wrong and they are right. How do you get rid of assholes? There is literally no way on earth. Although lets suppose anything was possible and there was a way. What would we do? Most likely we would have to make everybody in the world think the exact same way, and make everybody complacent.

Families are going to shit, people work WAY too much and too hard for too little pay, etc etc.
I just agree with agent here about better mental health. That would be a start. Also speaking in tongues. To me its a tip the man isnt exactly well educated or of a higher class. Churches with more well to do people, tend not to do that. That what I heard any ways. Another thing I was pointing out, maybe its time to stop blaming it on ideas, beliefs and political stances. Start looking past the labels and focus on the similar behaviors. Start being a bit more anti-asshole. I mean there are asshole Christians and asshole atheists. Asshole whites and asshole blacks and so on and so on.

Any girl that is sexually active is shunned, and any gay dude or girl is shunned. Non-denom churches aren't like that. Back to my point, religion is manmade bullshit. Faith is where it's at.

Religion is simply the structure that surrounds faith and gives it direction.

Being over worked with minimal compensation on too strict of a schedule is causing too much stress for society. Stress is another thing that makes assholes. Stress is literally something that can make you sick and die. Corporatism, capitalism, the way society is set up to be "productive" is actually killing us all.

It is how one church does one thing attracts certain types of people and puts off others. Its like music. Some music is more likely attract a certain type of person and put off other persons not of that type. Same idea. Faith isnt the problem I said. Im saying its assholes are the problem. Not religion.

[QUOTE=agentfazexx;49230009]Well the religion thing is full of politics and manmade rules. Look at Catholicism and the Episcopal denoms.[/QUOTE] It can be, but it isn't inherently so.
[QUOTE=agentfazexx;49230009]Well the religion thing is full of politics and manmade rules. Look at Catholicism and the Episcopal denoms.[/QUOTE] Everything is full of politics. Welcome to life. What I am saying is look past that and focus on the jerks. Not the label they use to justify being a jerk.
Its funny because 4/5 Planned Parenthood clinics don't even perform abortions. Most are for screenings, HIV testing, birth control, and general women's (and men's) health and well-being. And yet... Everyone is solely convinced that all PP clinics are baby killing murder factories. I despise the misinformed. Or rather, the uninformed.
You know you're in the wrong when all of your cause's biggest advocates all run on misinformation. I regularly see those shock images of miscarriages saying "THIS IS WHAT AN ABORTION LOOKS LIKE OMG ITS SO BAD".

Jesus I thought this guy had to be a troll after the starbucks cup video, but now there's no question he's seriously insane
Pretty sure this fat slob is a troll. I remember him making some anti-homosexual threats with a fucking Airsoft rifle :hurr:
