LovinLarge comments on Oct 31, 2020:

That was worth the watch, but everything is deniable until it's proven. She doesn't seem to understand that change occurs incrementally. SCOTUS and the Constitution won't be abolished next month, but there are many things that can realistically be changed for the better incrementally. The problem generally with these types of critiques is that they point out problems but not solutions. For instance, there has to be a final arbiter of federal lawsuits. She denounced SCOTUS but offered no alternative. Equating the Democrats with the Republicans is a false equivalency. The Democrats have been more progressive than the Republicans for decades and it is particularly so today. We know that one of two men is going to be our next president and the difference between the two despite them both being old, white men is glaring. Give Biden a Democratic Congress and that is how we will get things done.

Voter suppression is a critical issue, thank you for taking it on. I couldn't access your threads, not sure why. But I read below, found out who it was, to no real surprise. I watched her spread disinformation on this website until I realized she was just a time waster and then blocked her permanently quite some time ago. There are some very interesting members of this website and the blocking feature allows me to eliminate the noise in order to hear them. I understand your concern about being wrongly portrayed but you can probably discount that because I don't think anyone affords her any credibility. You will find other similar members, but in the larger scheme of things what you think of you is the only thing that truly matters. Hang in there and please keep posting and commenting.

How to Talk to Racist Family Members During The Holidays [youtube.

The point of the video is that we have to engage racists in order to help them understand why their racism is wrong. Not everyone can do it, not every situation will allow for it and not every racist is a candidate for change, but it would be unfortunate not to try when a realistic opportunity presents itself. Even if your target refuses the message, the interaction may be beneficial to any spectators.

Got a Bible for Christmas. Needed to vent. : atheism

LovinLarge comments on Dec 26, 2020:

He says he and his wife are "very outspoken" atheists and then they thank their inlaws for giving them a Bible for Christmas. He has misrepresented he and his wife as "outspoken". Once one establishes themselves as an outspoken atheist, people who know do not raise the issue of religion around you because they know their position is unsupportable. People who don't know are immediately schooled on the subject. If anyone gave me a Bible, I would decline it in a very outspoken way. There are circumstances where some atheists have to stay in the closet and they should be protected, but its time for those of us who are free to speak out to do so, especially in our own families.
