Who What Now posted:If we're thinking of the same story, it wasn't that the rabbis found any loopholes, it's that one rabbi was arguing for one interpretation of the laws and all the others were arguing against it. The lone rabbi kept declaring that if he were right then may [miracle] happen to prove it, whereupon the miracle would immediately happen (I think a river ran backwards and trees lept into the sky), while the others would ignore it and say that didn't count as a real argument. Eventually God himself said in a booming voice "HE IS RIGHT AND YOU ARE WRONG", whereupon the head rabbi told god to butt out because he wasn't part of the official debate. The logic-ending I heard (can't be assed to look it up in the phone) was humorously phrased as "...Alright, Rabbi Eliezer, very well. The vote is five to two."

There's going to be hell to pay when those rich white kids start dying from getting vaccines with no preservatives or antifungals.

Also, you can't have a vaccine that's clean and free of toxins, because that defeats the entire point of a vaccine! On the other hand, won't all the white antivaxers feel silly once they learn it's really just saline shots and happy thoughts? Of course, there are plenty of doctors who provide service to white and black families, do they need to keep the them specially labeled so they don't mix the two up?

You'd have to, the two injections are so similar a layperson like yourself would think it's the same image copied and pasted.

I remember when they threatened to boycott Target. I also remember when a few weeks later I had already seen everyone who threatened to boycott to me while I was their cashier shopping at Target again.

Saying you're going to boycott something is really easy, whereas doing the actual boycott is a lot more effort (and, quite often, more expensive).

Listen, okay, I am on year 31 of my boycott of McMansions, gold leaf mint juleps, blowjobs from pristine high class hookers(mostly, but not solely, because I do not have a penis), and FRONT ROW tickets to Hamilton. I will not have you besmirch my honor.

I was having a discussion (for real) on facebook about some things and an old acquaintance posted a blog from the dilbert guy. I rolled my eyes, but read it anyway. Then i rolled my eyes again after I read it. http://blog.dilbert.com/post/156540315831/be-careful-what-you-wish-for-especially-if-it-is I basically tried to ignore it because I have idea why he posted it or even what the blog was really trying to say. Stop protesting? Give Trump a chance? You are not being objective? ???

Dilbert guy endorsed Hillary. Because Trump support, which every pore of him obviously oozes, invited threats from the Militarized Left and he was Scared for His Life if he Endorsed Trump. Because nobody can read context and leftists are offing folks based on a google search for "endorse Trump" and zero further context. It's the most asinine bullshit framing, but at some point he chided critics with "If Trump turns into Hitler, I will Resist" and he's inelegantly walking that back as only a Master Persuader can.

But Hillary is awful and we should give this guy a chance!" *Trump begins banning immigrants and firing anyone who doesn't toe the party line* "Okay but like, is he really Hitler or do you liberals just want to pretend he's Hitler to make protesting easier?"

What's a good way to respond to "Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinions" when the topic under discussion is actually a matter of empirical fact? Or at that point is it just not even worth continuing?

It probably isn't worth continuing but you could play the "here is an opinion that is stupid" card and post a completely, bafflingly stupid opinion. I'm talking like "my opinion is that gravel is the best breakfast cereal. All opinions are equally valid so you must support my opinion that gravel is a good breakfast. Why don't you believe that gravel is a good breakfast? Have you tried eating gravel? No! You haven't! Don't judge me. I am entitle to my opinion." Or you could just go full Godwin and say "so you're saying Hitler's opinions are just as good as yours?"

I heard someone earlier say "yeah but not everyone is entitled to their own facts." Not that I really think that or anything else is going to work, statements like that are just a way to retreat from an argument with a facade of dignity anyways.

Best case scenario is that you make them rethink their position but more than likely they won't.
