"Chicago still exists and Biden is President, so I suggest you kill yourself."
The latest crap from kevin lewis, suggesting that I commit suicide I believe the above is against the forum rules about being overly aggressive & abusive.
please refrain from being overly aggressive or abusive. Posts that violate these rules will be removed and ongoing offenders risk being banned.

What else would he do all day if he didn't do this? Anthony must like the hits on his site to allow him and Toad to spew all day.

What's "aggressive" about that? You're obviously in terrible pain, given that you post complaints in the Sink dozens of times every week. It obviously hurts you to be in this world, with Biden being President and Chicago continuing to exist. I'm trying to help you.
Here in Oregon, those who decide that the pain they're experiencing is making life intolerable can consult with a physician for legally assisted suicide. I'll be happy to provide you with links.
Really, Tom, wouldn't that be preferable to sitting, staring at Fox News 24/7 and rushing over to LVA to express your outrage every time you see Biden's face or Chicago is mentioned? (I don't know what dark, horrible things happened to you there.)
You actually managed to double down on your despicable behavior.
kevin is the sad one who needs help, who posts dozens of times on a gambling web site your hatred of President Trump, Republicans & conservatives per day 24/7, with posts late at night & early in the morning.
The really sad part is that your posts are all lies & insults (such as your above reply, which again violates the forum rules)

Most of the ads on this site are from 3rd party who pay 2 or $3 per thousand. No offense to AC, but I don't think he makes enough from people tuning in to read kevin's rants & insults.

He must have naked pictures or something on AC. Any normal business owner would have banned Kevin and Ugly Toad long ago.

Tom, in the afterlife, Trump will be emperor, Chicago will be run by Republicans, who will of course be the only political party allowed, and any black people who get uppity and try to vote will be sent to re-education camps.
In other words, it'll be Tom-heaven, and you should go there ASAP. Why hang around on Earth among all those people who don't think like you?

So. My background has been in academics and in healthcare (although I recently retired) but I've had an interest in history for a while. I've never paid attention to politics at all (figured that it would take too much of my time and would just piss me off) until the last few years when it became more frightening. A lot (but not all) of that was the downplaying of the pandemic; all physicians are horrified by that. So I spent time trying to convince people of the importance of precautions and of vaccination, and made very, very little progress (which was certainly better than no progress). The problem fundamentally comes down to belief vs. fact, and I think that crops up a lot in history and speaks for human nature. It's an unpleasant part of the world, and something that demagogues have taken advantage of (there's a reason why every dictator begins by purging the universities, and there has even been a recent President who spoke about how he loves the uneducated). There's the Dunning-Kruger effect, which basically addresses how people can be too unaware to know that they're unaware.
I can see how I could easily get drawn into such things and spend a lot more time and energy than I want to, to try to change things that are probably unchangeable. Staying calm and logical is probably necessary but certainly not sufficient (as witnessed by the thread that you and I are both following about betting progressions). I do know that getting nasty or rude will only make it easier for people to discount what you're saying (and that guy from the betting progression thread is starting to get a little nasty). It feels good in some ways to try to sway opinion, but I don't think I want to spend a lot of my time doing it, it's so low-yield and will likely take too much of my time and just piss me off.
Agreed. Zero yield / return and there are no meaningful goals or solutions ( in the Sink political opposing narratives); it's like watching and listening to rabid dogs bark across a fence at each other, which for some is an apparently acceptable way to spend much of their successive days. I was drawn into it for a short time ( for a few months...specifically my choice and error). No more..I wish em all well.
