He is a stewardess and gay. You know they don't live within their means.

He fought with me about AOC calling illegals in her district her "constituents" when that term is clearly defined as a registered voter when an elected official uses the word.

I'm talking about disrespecting the office, calling names, etc.

But

quote:

resident Obama honored the 1972 Miami Dolphins this week, the only NFL team to complete an undefeated season (sorry, Patriots fans). However, three members of that team — Hall of Fame center Jim Langer, guard Bob Kuechenberg, and defensive tackle Manny Fernandez — declined the invite, citing political differences.


quote:

Matt Birk
The former Baltimore Ravens center won the Super Bowl earlier this year, but refused to meet President Obama because of the president's support for Planned Parenthood.


and many more.

So nothing is preventing you from reading through my posts to find evidence to support your claim

Well you have completely moved the goalposts from Twitter the platform to Twitter the corporation, but I'll argue anyways because I'm bored.

Not really, no, because people seek affirmation, not information

if everything you are arguing was that true, Trump would have never been POTUS, nor would he stand a chance in 2020

Is it disrespecting the actual office that bothers you or are you bothered because you support who is currently in that office?


MSB did not like it when Tim Thomas skipped the white house trip with Obama. And that was from posters on both sides. But I guess you gotta do whatever it takes to defend the trashiness on your side

Is that unique users? Twitter is rampant with bot accounts and people with multiple accounts.

I have both Facebook and Twitter, and Twitter is much easier to control what shows up on your feed. Facebook seems to have gotten better, but I still see things in my feed that friends have liked or commented on that I have no interest in seeing. That only happens on Twitter if someone you follow Re-Tweets it.

Old people ruined Facebook by turning it into a chain em-mail medium.

Nah. I think you are grasping at low hanging fruit instead of the big picture.

You are going to need to explain this further, because in no way does my point argue this.

I think the boycott is dumb but hey, it's a peaceful protest. The only thing it hurts is feelings. I'm not going to base my entire opinion of the women's soccer team on this one issue.

18 people over 25 years

The whole teams declining thing started with Trump obviously. Also the president rescinding the invite thing started with Trump as well

lolz at the unwarranted narcissism in this post. “I moved to Houston so now I’m cultured and know stuff that people in small towns don’t”

4th wave feminism was a social media construct. It blew up vernght and highly influenced the population regarding social justice

That cannot be denied.

Dissent of these opinions are kept at bay by the gatekeepers.

A key point is some of those 18 athletes in that article at least publicly named non-political reasons for not going. The fact that the article had to go back to the 80's and 90's to name 18 athletes shows how much the frequency of this has increased recently
