The Official Gosh Darned Biden Thread

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Did the phrase ‘This includes the usage of slurs’ escape your notice? If it didn’t, are you contending that the n-word isn’t a slur (I get that you were not using it as a slur in your post)?

What did you think of Biden’s response to the question about the voter suppression laws currently under consideration?

Boru

The rule is intended to eliminate slurs (unless they are against Christians, etc). You agree that I didn't use the word to slur anyone. Let's get back to common sense in our discussions. We're doing stupid things like firing that liberal magazine editor  because she used some mild racial slurs 10 or so years  ago.  And I thought the inquisition was bad.

It doesn't matter that you didn't use it as a slur, it's STILL a slur. The rule clearly states that when you are using one of these words, it must be altered in one of the suggested manners.

The reason that the rule doesn't apply to religionists is that religion is a choice. Race, sex, gender, ethnicity, etc. are not choices.

What do you think Mr. Biden's next policy initiative should be?

His next policy should be trying to counter all the anti-voting bills Republicans are throwing out

[brewer]

He stole the idea from the previous administration like he always does, the clod!

Lets hope that's the only thing he steals from them.

OK. I sincerely apologize to anyone who was offended by my cruel slur. I hope I haven't traumatized anybody. I do want to say that it seems that anyone who thinks we have to protect you from statements such as mine must not think much of you. I guess you are so delicate that we must protect you.

Try to become like us people of faith who don't need protection from that kind of stuff. Actually, I think you're as tough as we are.

About Biden's next move? Do something quickly about the inhumane situation at the border before kids start dying. Also, become transparent like you said you would and allow access to the facilities by the media.

Nothing to do with protecting us

Idea's don't require protection

Lol a Trump supporter having the balls to even start this conversation is cringe as fuck

That’s not really a ‘policy initiative’, but ok.

Not to be a nudz, but when and where did Mr. Biden promise transparency (I’m not saying he didn’t, I just can’t find a source for that promise)?

Boru

[The Grand Nudger]

Even more than that...... act before folks start dying at the border? That train left the station years ago. Turns out that cruelty as policy has a cost. Forgive me for being cynical, but where was this invocation when we were actively fucking people? Last year this time we were collecting uteruses in concentration camps.

Honestly, these people can go fuck themselves. I hope they die poor and alone.

And would be ironic considering Trump's administration was as transparent as lead 

Hiding drone strike kill counts 
Hiding his tax returns 
Refusing people access to his  border camps after they became hellholes 
Hiding what he knew about Covid
Threatening laws that would silence critical media

Calling a Muslim towel head or mudslime is as bad as any other slur. Muslims are not a race, but anti-Muslim bigotry is still a thing.

I see N like the word queer. Queer is a slur, and also an identity, and it can also mean strange and probably other things too. Why is the word queer allowed, a slur that some gay people have been called right before they were murdered?  N is not just a slur. N is like the word fuck. It can be used to mean like 50 different things. Tupac said to him it meant never ignorant getting goals accomplished. Those of us who grew up listening to rap music didn't see it as first and foremost a slur, and we used it among friends. I saw on a commercial for some new show, gays were calling each other the H word (homosexual minus the sexual). The F word (cigarette) doesn't bother me at all as a bisexual man. I don't think of it as an anti-gay slur first and foremost. I think of it as just calling someone annoying or lame or whatever. If you were young like me, in your 30s, that's what the word meant to us growing up. An annoying person.

Imagine if a poetry club made people censor themselves when they went up and did their poetry or spoken word. A gay person reads their poem, but has to say "They called me the H word" because that word is not allowed. Picture that in your head. How ridiculous would that look?

Like I said before, I will abide by the rules. Not trying to cause trouble. I'm glad to see some of the mods and other members think this particular rule is silly though. I just see it as a virtue signalling kind of rule. As a bisexual person, I don't need straight people virtue signalling and banning words like cigarette to protect me, and I actually see that as insulting, but the rules are the rules.

And on topic, President Biden kept his promise and eliminated student debt. Less than one percent of it, but still, it's better than nothing I guess.
