Multiple articles just dropped on it right after he was sworn in. Making friends already!
What are you smoking? That was being reported days ago.

I'm sure -- in your mind -- "Biden choosing to do things differently than Trump!" is somehow an outrage worthy of shitting up the folder with yet another pointless thread, though.
No, no, no.. not Orange man to hide behind now. Congrats. This is all you from here on out!Quote:

Aside from that, it's a pipeline to replace an existing pipeline, because it's slightly faster. Really? And for all you people who don't want to give foreign aid, why do you all of the sudden care about Canada's economy? But you're perfectly fine with once again taking land from indigenous people?
In case you didn't know, oil really is bad, and moving away from it is the best thing we could possibly do.
Unsurprisingly, not one post of substance from Shaps over here on the topic. Dude just spews diarrhea from his keyboard all day long. Why? Why do you support this pipeline, and why are you okay with just taking Native American's land still?
As claimed in recent lawsuits from some Native American organizations:
Quote:
Although, the pipeline’s proposed path crosses the plaintiff tribes’ homelands, the tribes have not been consulted as required by law and DOI policy.
In granting the right-of-way, the BLM failed to analyze and uphold the United States’ treaty obligations to protect the Tribes lands and natural resources. The government failed to even evaluate an alternate route to avoids tribal treaty lands.
The government’s analysis does not meaningfully address how an influx of out-of-state construction workers will affect the health, welfare, and safety of tribal members, and in particular Native women and children.
The agencies have not considered the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on either health and safety or the global oil markets.
The 2019 supplemental environmental impact statement has numerous issues and shortcomings. Even its maps do not give enough detail to show impacts on Indian lands.
In their permit application, TransCanada agreed to abide by tribal laws and regulation, which they have failed to do.
I didn't advocate one way or another.Quote:

Why are you against American interests? Are you okay with Americans suffering and causing international incidents with our neighbors? Are you okay with the incoming administrations disregard for international relations??? **that's sarcasm in case you missed it**
As for Native Americans and their historical plight - you're right, they got fucked over. Sadly man has been doing this to one another since the dawn of time and will continue to do so.
This is why you, and people like you, are shit bags. "Yeah, we know it's wrong, but it is what it is so just roll with it".Quote:

And it's really not surprising. Many things Trump did are going to get rolled back, just like he rolled back a large number of items from the Obama administration. This is fully expected, just as it was when Trump took office.
And so what if is Canada is suing us? Our own citizens have been suing over this for 12 fucking years since it was first announced. We're supposed to care more when Canada sues us? Doesn't add up.
You mistake understanding human nature and history - with thinking something is right. I stated facts. Just because they are not nice facts, that does not change them. Did I say what happened to Native Americans was correct? No. I said they got fucked over, because they did. Fact.Quote:

Lastly, you don't know me or what I've done. I can safely assume, and just assume as I do not know you, that I've done quite a bit more for the poor and downtrodden during my life than you have. Maybe not, but more than likely unless you work for Doctors Without Borders, UNICEF, or an equivalent. I'm just old and tired at this point, and I don't have the energy to keep going back into such desolate places. That's for the younger generation now.
So unless you're saving babies - you shut up "shit bag".

Biden campaign promise: Won't raise taxes on anyone (possibly household) earning less than $400K/year.
My prediction: Not a chance. Before 2021 is over, taxes will go up and the threshold will be a lot less than $400K/year.
Those are actually pretty funny. Following the break down that followed in 2016, I'd say par for the course.Quote:

You mean to say the individual tax cuts were written to expire, but the corporate tax cuts were made permanent, to allow the bill to skate under budget reconciliation rather than obtaining any bipartisan approval and successfully invoking cloture? No! That can't be, the Republicans would never do anything so cynical and dishonest.Quote:

Simple solution: Keep the tax cuts for the majority, raise it on those making 400k+ like he's being saying. Bam. Also raise it on corporations.Quote:

Pretty sure you once posted an arm you passed off as your own. It was extremely hairy and large (not muscular). I'm sure you scrubbed it off the forums by now... it wasn't flattering at all.Quote:

Well, well, well, two seconds of fact-checking: "Biden has pledged to reverse much of President Trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations to fund, in part, ambitious climate, education and health-care plans. But he has drawn a firm line if he is elected president — no new taxes for anyone making less than $400,000."Quote:

No "new" taxes on anyone making less than $400K... but if he reverses any part of the Trump Tax Cuts for people making less than $400K a year, then he has broken his promise. He didn't say he was keeping tax cuts in place from the Trump Tax Cuts for people making less than 400K.

That's your proof?
Seriously?
Stop.
I do enjoy how you believe that insinuating that a straight guy is gay is an insult though... given your queerness.
And you're right.
You're either playing a meaningless semantic game, suffering various reading comprehension failures, or both. You just contradicted your earlier claim: "He didn't say he would keep any part of it" by linking to an article of Biden saying he'll end "most of Trump's cuts" (thereby keeping some). How much retardation can you pack into a single post?Quote:

I can't make it simpler for you to understand without breaking out the crayons. Tell me you finally understand? Do you?
You posted a picture you said was your fat hairy arm and chubby thick fingers. That's all I know, which is why I described you the way I did. YOU claimed it was your arm.Quote:

But I suppose if I were so distraught with the skin I'm trapped in that I have to pretend I'm 180 degrees of what I am online.. maybe you have a point.
Only a trained psychologist would know... or is it a psychiatrist that can prescribe medication?

And, to be fair, it probably saved a bunch of jobs longterm. Sure there are immediate construction jobs that are lost, but for the trucking and train sectors, this is a huge win for them.
I've heard it goes over a major aquafer and if it had a leak it could contaminate drinking water for millions of people. So the environmental impact is negligible when it's working as intended, but that rarely stays that way.Quote:

There is already a couple of pipelines along the route and XL would allow one of the older ones to be retired. And they want to ship it to the gulf for refining since eco-terrorists have made it impossible to build a new refinery in North America. Right now, you could own the Hansford nuclear site, one of the most polluted and dangerous places on the planet and you could not get authorization to build a new refinery because of eco-terrorist lawsuits and idiot laws. Along the gulf, when the refineries were originally built there, they bought massive tracts of land and so they have the licenses to build on those pieces of land. Therefore they have massive refineries with the capacity to expand instead of trying to build a new refinery. That is why the pipeline is such a big deal.Quote:

Pipelines are and always have been, despite all the disasters combined, safer and more ecologically friendly than any other land transport of oil. Facts don't matter to the idiots protesting this pipeline and to Creepy Joe and his cronies.
Still don't care it's getting 86'd. This will increase gas prices for the midwest so that an oil company can make a few more bucks selling it to China. And it will create a grand total of like 35 jobs.Quote:

In another country to affect the change you're talking about - would be through violence. Here we have laws and hopefully those laws are followed. Time will tell, but violence usually is the finale to such situations historically. Hopefully we don't reach that point in the US, but if you think the US has some protected status from such incidents occurring then you haven't been watching.Quote:

Voting and the separation of powers are supposed to be the mechanism in the US to avoid such situations, but it seems people like playing fuck fuck games with those systems. So we'll see how it turns out. I give it.. hmm.. I used to think 50 years or so about 5 years ago.. current situation I'm down to 30 years or so. Hopefully I'm wrong.
Edit: Though if you watch what's going on in the Netherlands - maybe we only have 5 years. And we all know how lefties historically have liked to hold up the Netherlands as an example of "working socialism or progressivism". Push a people to far, and watch the results.

Reality: You don't know where Back gets his information from, much less that it's from Twitter or Instagram.
Parkbandit assertion #3: Back lives with his mom.
Reality: Does he? Do you know that?
Parkbandit assertion #4: Expressing your dissatisfaction on an unofficial forum for a 30+ year old, text based roleplaying game, with oil companies, banks, rich people, etc.. is not a revolution.
Reality: That might be your single-most idiotic, least self-aware post of all time. Guess what you have tens of thousands of, retard? Posts of you bitching about things that this forum isn't capable of changing. Because that's not why Back posted his post, nor is it why you posted your tens of thousands of posts. You're just a disingenuous dipshit who thought you could take a cheap, hypocritical shot at Back and not get called out for it. Not today.
Parkbandit assertion #5: If you want to make a difference in this country, what is stopping you except your own laziness?
Reality: You don't know what Back does, or doesn't do, to improve the country. He certainly improved it by voting the Mango Mussolini out of office.
Parkbandit assertion #5: I'm so tired of people like you demanding change without making the tiniest of effort and actually benefiting from the change you claim you are so against.
Reality: You don't know what Back does, or doesn't do, to improve the country. He certainly improved it by voting the Mango Mussolini out of office.
Not only did you not cite any sources for your claims, you tried to act like my parody post of your utter retardation required citations... but not your genuine claims. You are a fucking idiot, Tardbandit. Period.
While we appreciate all the time and effort you made.. plus all the bold and even italics bold... Backlash has already answered when asked what he has or is doing... he voted.Quote:

Ahh. So you no longer dispute that your claim about his post substantiating your assertions was bullshit. Perfect. And that you were hypocritical in asserting that it was "shockingly" hypocritical my parody didn't need citation because you had backed yours up? Gotcha.Quote:

Dude, electric car companies can't even standardize their fucking plug system, how we expected to 'move away' from combustion?
Americans are so resistant to change, I expect it to be a full 20 to 30 years MORE before electric cars can be the standard. And what about all the BAD side products of electric car manufacture? Mercury, heavy metals, etc?
I don't see Americans or humans resistant to change.. but the change has to be beneficial. You can't expect people to pay more for the vehicle that will only go a fraction of the distance before you have to recharge it again.. just to make some people feel better about whatever the complaint du jour is.Quote:
