Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

"I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. My sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history, naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry, and porcelain." - John Adams, the 2nd President of the United States

Sounds like Clay Higgins doesn't believe in making the world better for his children.

Does Clay Higgings believe in improving the world for anyone who isn’t a rich, straight, white, able bodied, “Christian”, republican man?

Millennials were born after nukes were invented and while the cold war ended (supposedly), nukes weren't exactly removed from existence.

I feel like he asked an intern to come up with a tweet, who then just made a chat bot vomit out some word salad and they posted it without reading it or anything.

I'm a millennial and we had bomb drills in my school growing up, so this guy is not only an idiot, but he's completely full of shit.

The threat of nuclear war has never gone away

Kids do active shooter drills today

[–] Veraxus@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Any other millennials here vividly remember the nuclear duck-and-cover drills? Because I do. This boomer clown is so out of touch that he doesn't realize that millennials are in their 40s and grew up during the end of the cold war.

[–] austinfloyd@ttrpg.network 0 points 1 year ago

Yup. I remember that there was definitely the fear of the USSR losing control of nukes during it's dissolution in the early 90s.

It means Rep. Clay Higgins took money from Putin's lackeys.

[–] traveler@lemdro.id 0 points 1 year ago

Putin constantly threatening the use of nuclear weaponry in Ukraine and he’s saying millenials never lived under nuclear threat. We’re all living it right now!

Damn I forgot this wasn’t just a YouTube meme
