The Deluge of Absurdity, Ignorance, and Bad Posts

More historical revisionism from our favorite historical revisionist:

As for the Election Thief Franken, I have no idea why Minnesota would elect him (or rather, why the state Supreme Court would select him.)  I also have no idea why he would be popular.  I can already see the perfect bumper sticker: "Re-Defeat Franken 2014."  But then again, they did elect Jesse Ventura as their governor in 1998, so I guess it's not that surprising.  But that proves just how pathetic Minnesota voters (and their state Supreme Court) are.  And Norm Coleman was a hardworking, constituent-oriented Senator too.  (Then again, he was reelected, but the convicted felons and the Minnesota Supreme Court stole it from him.)

Nothing wrong with that post. Banning guns is a sensible, mainstream position.

[Lief 🗽]

Just because Americans are far outside of the mainstream doesn't make the position any less mainstream.

Just because Americans are far outside of the mainstream doesn't make the position any less mainstream.

If 'mainstream' doesn't refer to the attitude of the majority, it becomes a literally meaningless word.

The "attitude of the majority" of the world is to severely limit access to guns.

 The rogue mind in which the gun rest denies life again, its horror imagined lived infinity by the survivors of Adam Lanza; his capital sin, revenge - the Obama Christmas Present’.  The Obama Christmas Future’ - the denial and abuse of the Founding Father’s fundamentals can only foster greater atrocities. Their foresight was not void of mass murder, it’s forming was of it. Our Christmas Pass’, Obamacare - the aggrandizement of life, liberty and loot is met with equal distain.

Absurd in a good/hilarious way though.

Why exactly are you pitting two renowned economists against a duo of failed clowns?

I don't think I would call O'Reilly or Limbaugh 'renowned economists'...

Our betrayal and treatment of the Shah was the greatest moral and geopolitical travesty of the past fifty years.

Fortunate One. And agreed. Anything is better than pornography.

Our suffocatingly prudish, sex-shaming culture sure has done a number on poor, young Simfan.

40 minutes early is not extremely early by any stretch of the imagination.

[Lief 🗽]

Yeah, that entire post really is a gem.

Gustaf seems to have a better understanding of racism and sexism than just about anyone on the forum.

The Oldiesfreak Memorial Deluge of Absurdity, Ignorance and Bad Posts has a nice ring to it.

I mean, I guess he's technically correct, but it's a dumb non sequitor that doesn't have anything to do with anything.

Well that and the idea that the right to own a weapon as part of a militia is even comparable in significance to basic, internationally-recognized freedoms/rights like free expression or due process.

Oldiesfreak decides to be absurd, ignorant and bad on a new topic today:

Well, favorite recent one: Kitzmiller vs. Dover Board of Education

Nova made a documentary about it a few years back: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/evolution/intelligent-design-trial.html

Intelligent Design was revealed as creationism and defeated in front of a Republican judge here in PA. But the whole backstory about how a few local yokels on the school board tried to consciously undermine science is really disturbing. Local reaction there was interestingly pretty much against them.

And of course this is another reason why I dislike local school boards. They should never be allowed to toy with an academic curriculum like that.

I have no problem with teachng intelligent design as a theory and alongside evolution (also taught as a theory and not a fact.)

Of course, Democrat William Jennings Bryan was also a creationist, so I don't know how he reconciles this.

Why doesn't Obama propose anything left-wing? I don't know.

Because he isn't a progressive. He's the proverbial Generic Republican.

[Lief 🗽]

I also like the "7,400 people have been arrested during Occupy protests UNDER OBAMA'S WATCH." Like he's personally directing local policemen to rough up hippies and take down their tents, lol

[Lief 🗽]

It's hideous news. Why should gays be allowed to marry when gun rights are not protected.

[Lief 🗽]

Wow, that post is a special kind of horrible. Bravo, Sanchez. Bravo.

[Lief 🗽]

Beat me to it. Good lord.

[Lief 🗽]

That's more depressing than anything. The religious nutters have really done a number brainwashing him.

All of Inks' posts bullying and harassing Bushie belong here but I can't quote from closed threads.

The Atlas forum reaches new depths of absurd nonsense...

Instead of defaming the thread about her death with hatred, I would like to memorialize her legacy. She was a lady, a strong one. She stood for liberty at a time when Britain didn't want it. She stood for western progress when her opposition pushed for Marxism. She stood against the Euro before everyone else could tell it was a disaster. She stood against the EU before everyone could tel it was a disaster. She stood for individual freedom when others wanted state control. She stood for an ideology when others wanted a popularity contest. Britons can piss on her grave all they want while their country faces disaster. You think she cares? She did what she knew was right, and she knows that if Britain takes the opposite track toward socialism/communism, they'll come crawling back to capitalism when it fails. She's re-united with the Gipper and the Pope now, three people who divided nations because they STOOD FOR SOMETHING. They believed in a cause and fought for it to the end, and if that divides people, oh, well. It is better than standing back and giving in to what is popular.

R.I.P. Maggie Thatcher; you'll be missed by freedom-lovers forever, and those who hate freedom? They'll come around.

I don't see why this belongs here at all.

"She stood for liberty at a time when Britain didn't want it. She stood for western progress when her opposition pushed for Marxism." This is obviously ridiculous.

"Britons can piss on her grave all they want while their country faces disaster. You think she cares?" Probably not, because the disaster is mostly a result of her policies.

"R.I.P. Maggie Thatcher; you'll be missed by freedom-lovers forever, and those who hate freedom? They'll come around." Unironically calling your opponents freedom-haters lol

Hahah, you even replied to that post by wondering why we didn't have a Deluge-like thread.

The bigger the government, the more left-wing it is.

How can people say such stupid things with such confidence?

Kind of makes you wish there was a Stupidity Goldmine doesn't it? There's no other place comments like that can properly belong.

[Lief 🗽]

King raises a valuable point: Is pointless arguing and bickering encouraged in the Deluge? I know we don't allow it in the Comedy Goldmine or the Good Post Gallery, but it seems to make more sense here, since we are getting people to post their bad posts directly into the Deluge. Hm...
