By asking for clarification instead of jumping to some inflammatory assumptions. I was civil to you, and made no accusations against your character. Yet you were very quick to attack my character. Would you please refrain from such incivility in the future?
My apologies, I guess I wasn't clear enough. My point was that it's unfair to blame those things as results of progressive policies.
But hey, thanks for the gross mischaracterization of my perspective.
Japanese Internment
Two major Red Scares and a collapse in union membership
Legitimate criticisms
No they're not. Those two things were caused by far greater international factors. Like, you know, the 2nd World War.
Well, see, a buttplug is basically a plug, but for your butt. Would you like to know more?
Woah, look at Nostradamus over here
Thanks! If I recall correctly, they just seemed like the exact same message, except as posts. I didn't really bother to look any now closely.
"she's" already made multiple posts. You just don't see them because we caught them quickly and banned those accounts.
Lol good job, op. Sorry, I almost banned you thinking you were "her" again, trying to circumvent their own ban.
Lol. All you yung'ns who think you've hit peak miserableness.
You sweet, summer children. It gets worse.
Internet's older than you think. Tim Berners Lee, the dude who invented the World Wide Web, opened it up to the public a year earlier.
Hey everyone. As promised, here's what I did for the holiday. It's a classic mojito mix, made with freshly picked key limes. This is actually the 3rd pitcher, so pardon the lack of visual flair.
And before anyone asks, I don't use a specific recipe or ratio. I built to taste based on the palate of the people I'm with. Some of my family like it weak and mild sweetness, so I have the bottle of rum for floating and made a simple syrup for the family who are speedrunning diabetes.
I've been making these since I was 6, feel free to ask me about any of it!
Happy Turkey Day!
Please allow me to clarify my perspective on this discussion.
This commenter associated a bunch of effects with the progressive era.
You then replied with a thoughtful response that questioned most of their points.
But then you wrote
At this point, I read that as you acknowledging those two points as legitimate criticisms against the progressive era. This is what I disputed. I think those are unfair criticisms, as far as I understood the words you wrote.
This is all I said. I've jumped to no other conclusions. I've said nothing against you or your character. I've made no other assumptions. I simply wrote a response based off the words you used.
I see you've further clarified your perspective as well, and understand that we're of the same perspective on the matter. You have no need to be so defensive anymore, my dude.
Edit: the other commenter essentially proved that they were just baiting people into inflammatory discussion. They kept resorting to personal attacks and flip-flopped on their position solely to continue arguing. This behavior is not tolerated here. Please report such trolls in the future.
