MAGA devotee Roberto Mosquera thought Trump would unify the country. Now he’s 8,000 miles away.

              Richard Attenborough voice Observe, an idiot on the Internet in his native environment. Watch as he tries fruitlessly to win an argument by quoting the dictionary at another user. I’m this classic display he believes he’s won. Watch, as the other user returns to shut him down, yet again.

                Observe, yet another fuckwit missing the entire point of someone referencing a dictionary while trying way too hard to sound clever and original.

                If I’m being told I’m misusing a word, what else should I rely on to set the record straight? How is that winning any arguments rather than clearing things up for the idiot making shit up? Do all dumbasses travel in pairs around here or what?

              the google ai summary? lol, no….


              you see, an obtuse angled object is difficult to fit in with other objects, which are typically 90 degrees (like a box) or less… and deliberately.
              as such, we have the metaphorical definition “obtuse”, referring to difficulty….
              like “oh, this dmv employee is being deliberately obtuse by adding all of these arbitrary requirements to my license renewal”.
              the obtuse=stupid definition comes the vernacular misunderstanding of the term because they heard smart people talking on Shawshank Redemption before and want to sound smart.
              but you won’t understand this anyways… kindly fuck off and clutch your pearls and cope and mental gymnastics clown emoji

                You’re further proving my point, dumbass.

                Does this look like Google to you? Of course not, you’re not very observant or smart.

                I hope you realize that all the schooling you think you’re doing comes from a deep-seated ignorance about how language works. Usage precedes definitions, and if it’s in the dictionary as such, it’s because that’s the way people are using it. Pedantic fuckwit.

                  It’s just wild that you are so blind to the similarities between you and MAGA, calling for people’s death. Yea, it’s not exactly the same, yea MAGA are the bad guys, but denying their humanity IS the same thing they do, and it’s bad. There is going to need to be a very intensive “Denazification” of America if the old Republic is going to continue, but killing roughly 30% of the country because they voted for the bad guys after years of saturation level propaganda isn’t the solution.

                  Take a few moments to reflect on that, please. I’m not trying to argue, I don’t care to read another screeching reply. I’m so tired of it, so if you can’t engage with what wrote in good faith and with a degree of humanity, just downvote me again and move on. The negative vote count every time I say this means enough to me.

                    It’s just wild that you are so blind to what I’m actually saying. Since when does saying I’m indifferent equate to advocating for people’s deaths?

                    I know reading is hard, but you really need to try applying those comprehension skills instead of projecting what you think you’re reading or what you want the other person to be saying for you to have an excuse to go after them.

                  me complaining about someone being sent to a life sentence at a maximum security prison in a small african country known for human rights violations is “pearl clutching” because all trump supporters deserve to be tortured until they slowly die?
                  he was sent there because he went to prison when he was younger… he had cleaned up, has a family now, living here legally
                  this should be upsetting you, they’re sending non-trump supporters to places like that too.
                  ….
                  say it out loud, say “i want this man to be tortured for life in a maximum security prison in africa, because he supports trump”.

            Stoicism should not be a shield to guard you from reality. Acknowledge those things that you cannot control, that many people do in fact suck, and focus on the choices you can make. We know people suck, and that history tells us they can suck a whole lot harder. You can accept defeat, tell yourself nothing can be done and resign yourself to whatever consequences may come from that, or?
