Lame sauce. Can our elected officials just freaking decriminalize weed instead of worrying about dumb crap like this?

And how many non- republican leaders did you manage to get elected? Clearly you un-purging yourself did not result in not "electing a state government run by a criminal mafia"

Come on bro, think about what you wrote, you literally proved his point. Whether it was true or just some shit you made up, you gotta either lie better or truth better.

I now live with non Republican leadership, so clearly I was capable of taking action to find governance worth supporting. You have to assume so much to justify your laziness.

I fought for new leadership in Texas and had these same discussions with people unwilling to get off their asses and vote then as I am having with you now. I drove people to get registered to vote and volunteered for political campaigns. I informed people when I was removed from the voter rolls and asked them to check their status.

In the end, it was always lazy people unwilling to stand up for themselves.

What are you doing for the upcoming election bro?

Okay but is pornhub banned under that leadership, yes or no? Or do you get a special exception cause you tried so much harder than everyone else in that district the gerrymander mafia left you?

See what I mean? Your point is moot. Not even picking sides, I live in a lefty state, I have no skin in the game. I was just saying your argument is self defeating because you picked a flawed approach, defending something that already played out and lost. You just gotta work on your tactics in these type of convos, that's all I'm saying.

Got it, so now we've established you were just talking some bullshit you made up, and/or that you failed to effect the change you condescendingly told others to effect with your initial self-defeating comeback and left the state you claim to have un-purged yourself from five separate times. 👍🏻

You really do suck at this man.

Dude's in here literally talking about how he gave up and ran away rather than fighting against the fascist government, and he thinks he's won and is better than the people who can't turn tail like him. Can't find entertainment like this on TV, that's for sure.

It's ez guys, just leave Texas, run to a blue state, and then condescendingly tell Texans to just vote harder like 200 years of racism, gerrymandering, and voter suppression is their fault.

My favorite is that he turtles and says "you guys can't read" when you point out how fucking stupid he sounds.

Lmao, you're now digging down to bonding with the dude who can't even read.

Yup, you sure showed me.

You're not too bright eh? Try reading the thread.

I was removed from the voter rolls in Texas 5 times and still managed to vote. Cry to somebody else.

This you?

Elect better leadership. A state government run by a criminal mafia isn't going to operate in your best interest.

This also you?

I now live with non Republican leadership

This also you?

Lol no I have pornhub

THIS. ALSO. YOU?

So you either live in Texas where pornhub is now banned, the LITERAL topic of this post, making your JuST eLecT Nu LeEdeRShIP comment the dumbest thing ever said, which explains your absolutely impressive number of downvotes, OR....you don't live in Texas and are talking out your ass. Still. Inexplicably, despite how many people have pointed out how stupid you sound.

Which one is it Mr. "You guys can't read"?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Impressive number of downvotes? My main comment is at +80 lmao. What does that say about the dude getting downvoted arguing with the impressive number of downvotes and helping me get back on a positive trend?

Try reading that information again and thinking a little bit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Lol, my scores are at zero, the only one downvoting me is your salty ass. Are you gonna keep huffing your own farts and rolling the same line out again and again, or are you gonna set us all straight there Captain?

Here I'll make it simple - do you, presently, live in Texas?

If yes, your entire argument train is asinine because despite all your grandstanding, you failed to do the thing you told everyone else to do (like it was ez) leading to pornhub being shutdown in your state.

If no, you're talking out your ass because you couldn't affect ANY change in Texas and left.
