It's not fat shaming to say there may be a few data points she leaving out of her argument.

Except your whole point of posting that picture was to make sure we realised this conservative woman is FAAAAT. No-one of worth cares. Her hateful personality is more than enough to judge her by. There is so much to dislike about conservative women without going into tangential misogyny / figure attacks.

Then make fun of the opinions and weird superiority-visage she exerts and not the physical appearance that plenty of people with low self-esteem already have despite being the kind of person you post with all the time and enjoy talking to? Remember when you mock her appearance you're also hurting all the people who are the same size as her, plenty of which are the same minorities you're hating on this women for ignoring due to her arrogance.

Also she's not caucasian, long blonde hair, slim w/ firm perky tits - the ideal female constantly served up by conservative media to it's captive male audience.

I'd almost buy this if I thought these was at least a minuscule chance she's ever run across and image like this

and called someone out on it.

Also lol at the idea that looks aren't an inherent part of dating.

Ah, the classic 'she hasn't been ideologically perfect therefore I don't have to be' - AKA the 'my defence is that someone else sucks.'

You're better than this. You can think she's a piece of poo poo, you can think she's unattractive, but posting the photo you did, which was entirely focusing on her weight, is lovely. You don't have to be attracted to fat people or chubby people or even 'filled-out' or 'meat-on-their-bones' people, but if you're claiming to not be the very dittohead who's the subject of this thread, you should at least try your hand at not judging people on their appearance at the slightest provocation. Chris Christie is fat, no-one good cares. This woman is fat, no-one good cares. Leave your judgements to your internal thought processes or get your arse into YLLS and make Shine proud.

Oh come on, conservative in everything but portion size is the low hanging fruit that only the strongest of us can resist. If this was a conversation about ideology physical comments would be inappropriate but when it comes to someone complaining about dating.. well yeah physical features factor in to those decisions.

Well yes, but face it, you weren't interested in dating her in the first place. You're only bringing up her appearance in terms of making GBS threads on someone. That's irrelevant to her terrible opinions.

Because she's a right-wing rear end in a top hat who doesn't even realise her own privileges in the current system. Frankly the idea of being interested in such a person is alien to me, but you're here, in this thread, acting like that despite those dealbreakers, the literal one reason she's undateable is due to her being over the average waistband.

Are you going to pretend to me that you're dying to date Ann Coulter or S. E. Cupp or any of these right-wing peeps?

Well from what I've seen most people in here have been going "wow that's hosed up, I hope it sinks him" and then being shown Facebook screencaps of people supporting Trump's statement. Interspersed with the military-version of ACAB getting the desired outcry.

Being fair I bet if Trump had been a pilot in Vietnam he'd have crashed twice as many planes and lied about who he was to get out of the POW camp early, later finds out his lie caused seven other POWs to be executed but felt no remorse.

Like that link earlier showed, the right-wing media works better when the right-wing does poorly electorally, because then they're the underdog. As always we could quote Umberto Eco's ur-fascism here.

My favorite Fiorina factoid is that HP's stock shot up like 11% the day she was fired, meaning that the company was worth something like $7 billion more the moment she left it. The company was exactly the same as it was the day before, it's just the name in the "CEO" slot changed. The free market determined that her worth as a person was literally negative seven billion dollars.

(All numbers approximate, going from very bad memory, would appreciate if someone has the real numbers)

Factoid means 'something that looks like a fact, but isn't' for the record. But you're close - their stock jumped by just under $3 billion.

And the news articles make no secret of it being because she left and no other reason.

Being fair the honey badger is one of the most vicious motherfuckers on the planet if it feels threatened. I believe that was what they were referring to when they came up with their name.

See conspicuous consumption is at least useful, the problem is that most of "the rich" don't actually spend their money: they hoard it or put it into cycles that do nothing but gain more money.

Pretty much, this is why 'trickle-down economics' is bullshit because these loving dragons just collect piles of gold to sit on but never use. It's the reason why Marx said capitalism, despite being fantastic in his yes, is unsustainable because eventually enough bastards scoop up so much the economy tanks completely.
