Here's a short exchange. Barb is a libertarian whose answer to everything is ‘The Free Market’, and who believes markets are perfectly rational and efficient. He's so close to getting it.

Not as bad as a lot of people on here, but I've been collecting a few of these. Don't really know this guy but he ended up on my friend list due to music related things. At first it seems like your standard "angry young man" teenager type bullshit...except for the fact that dude just turned 30.

   This is the first time I've experienced this rhetorical rope-a-dope by being for something so hard that you're really being against it by taking it to an absurdist extreme.

 "I can't believe they're allowed to buy potato chips with food stamps! The government shouldn't be paying for junk food!" Wait! The government is telling us what to eat? What an outrage! How dare rich people tell the lower class how to live their lives!" It's a simple food stamp system that rewards people for making healthier choices while in no way punishing those who don't.

into the void posted:Yup, this is absolutely true. I worked on a psych unit and we'd refer to the phenomenon as 'psych pts are magic': basically that the greater medical community seems to believe that if you have a psych problem, you are magically immune to all non psych illness. Chest pain? Send em to the psych unit. Blood in the stool? Send em to the psych unit. Covered in bed bug bites? Sounds like something for a psychiatrist. Better send em to the psych unit. I don't know how many schizophrenics or bipolar people we sent back to the ER because there was zero reason for acute psych care: they just happened to be mentally ill in the hospital. Huh. So that's why most doctors never seem to give a poo poo about my stack of physical health problems, including the large tumor-like thing on my stomach.

Not satire, eh? That actually links to an Onion article, doesn't it. I can't check because of the stupid paywall and 5 article limit that I keep forgetting. Also if they were truly coming back as zombies then I would imagine it would be in the news somehow...

Uh the media is not reporting this because the Rothschilds suppress any mention of it. It's because they work together with Obama to force mass vaccination on people which they will use to control everyone! Open your eyes sheeple. I actually had a dude argue this... He also sells lumps of titanium that plug into your wall sockets and use the quantum field to improve the air and water in your house. I just quietly left the room and let him talk...

Yep, you get a message like this: The Onion posted:But unlimited access for our foreign readers can be purchased for only $0.99 for the first month: That's less than a dollar - approximately one day's wages in most non-American countries! Which had some extra kick because I ran into it when there was in fact a typhoon outside. Edit: My god. That is a beautiful thing. Thinky Whale has a new favorite as of 14:21 on Oct 9, 2014 |

My (now ex) step-dad joined Facebook this year and I've found out a lot about him that I wish I didn't know. He comes off as at least fairly moderate in person, he loved/became bffs with one of my ex-boyfriends (who was black), basically gave no indication that he was in anyway someone I wouldn't normally associate with. Well, now he TYPES IN ALL CAPS ALL THE TIME BECAUSE I THINK HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO TURN IT OFF and posts horseshit like this constantly. CONSTANTLY. I had no idea he was so stupid.

I'm going to hazard "no" or "Who knows?" because most beheadings of Americans are probably from workplace or traffic accidents, and most infections are not Ebloa (even if we restrict it to deadly infections, MRSA, HIV and other already widespread diseases have killed orders of magnitude more people than ebola)

If you're willing to create your own reality based on fake news articles, you could do a lot better than standard right-wing paranoia. Change history, make up new countries, add some aliens or monsters to your world, be creative!
