I haven't wished death on anyone. True, but barely. This is what you wished for:- I personally hope he spreads it to every GOP senator and anyone in the White House. I have to say that expressing such a wish is hardly any sign of a balanced mind. And sadly, it's not a one-off. The following quote a...

No? Okay just stick with the last three words... that's the only salient point that's ever made in the Tank anyways.

Stevie, Stevie, Stevie, where to start? I truly despair... (Please picture me superciliously raising my eyebrows here in long-suffering and exquisitely patronising fashion. It'll help.) First off, I note that in addition to your endemic racism, you clearly suffer from innate religionism too. "J...

...and yes I make my own words up as is my pleasure and my right To be more accurate, you make up words because you have no other choice. ..and I have zero regard for the supercilious linguistic expertise that some are wont to assert Almost right... except you meant "zero understanding of"...

(if y'all can have so robust a socio-political forum on a literature-oriented site, I can throw in occasional germane literary references.) Oh no you damn well can't! Shame on you, SD! How DARE you attempt to inflict your elitist, arty-farty and hoity-toity literary allusions on the Tank faithful? ...

...whereas short posts demonstrate that you have nothing worthwhile to contribute.

(No doubt owing to a woeful inability to grasp the subtleties of the topic under discussion in the first place).

Oh yes and...

RACIST!

You want a crazed conspiracy theory involving assassination? Okay, here's one for y'all. Trump catching COVID is not coincidental. It's the first part of a plan to remove him (and quite possibly permanently) on the part of the Pubs and the military-industrial complex before Nov 3rd. Why? Because by ...

Stevie, I will resist the temptation to fisk your oh so ludicrous post above and forensically dissect your drivelling inanities by inserting at least 20 quotes sourced thence for deconstruction and analysis. To so so would undoubtedly and promptly highlight the innumerable logical fallacies that you...

Well the upside is that this means both the US and the rest of the world are now unlikely to be confronted with either of the two upcoming "shit show" presidential debates...

Did you even read my last post? You're increasingly eye-poppingly swivel-eyed in your mischaracterisation of my oh so obvious position. I've just noticed this thread... ...and this post... ...and had to check twice that it wasn't actually me that posted it. This is blatant plagiarism! And far FAR w...

[People are reacting to tone, that's it. They aren't actually listening to what was said. True, but that's because in the US at least (and quite possibly everywhere else in a few short years to come), in general, people cannot be bothered with demanding stuff like "content". With today's ...

As I've said before, pretty much the only reason that Trump is increasingly likely (as he no doubt is) to lose in November... ...is because of Trump. IMV, it's certainly got nothing to do with the farcically divisive campaign run by Biden and the Dems, because that's been piss-poor beyond belief. Ho...

Well... How do you guys feel about this so far? Personally, words fail me. The West's last remaining superpower and what does the onlooking world get presented with? The spectacle of two septuagenarians doing nothing but yelling insults at each other for hours on end, as they scrabble, scratch, bite...

My understanding - which will necessarily be limited - is that by being the highest appellate court in the land, the SCOTUS gets to provide the ultimate interpretation on federal and state laws, plus effectively the constitution itself. We also have a supreme appellate court over here... the SCOTUK ...

What surprised me about BoZo's rhetoric last night was his arrant dismissal of the notion that everyone should go about their daily lives largely as normal (with things like working from home if possible etc etc) - except for the elderly or those with co-morbidities, who should self-isolate for thei...

Nope. :D Far too many pejoratives etc. That's not addressing a statement by somebody, it's telling them your opinion of them as a person, not addressing something specific they've said. We can't deal with people's personalities or assumed intentions or anything like that here. Only with what they a...

Av, sure I get the difference - and I deliberately stretched the example to make my point - but in my view it goes towards unnecessary and frankly disingenuous doublespeak. Which is precisely what my second "You're coming across as..." example was intended to show. Much like it being actio...
