Yes this thread brings me joy! Thank you

Do you have any real data on illegal voting?

166

I’m simply rooting for the illegals voters to be caught and hopefully deported. You are free to insert anything you want here. :wink:

167

Is it good or bad to believe lies?

Your article is a lie.

Why are you proud of that?

168

What illegal voters? You are rooting for something based on a lie.

169

Don’t forget, they repeatedly used the code “cp” in discussing their business. This was obviously shorthand for child pornography… unless you are in the business of selling “cheese pizza”.

170

Where are these illegal voters?

171

All over the country.

You’re most certainly welcome. Y’all have been in really low spirits lately, I’m happy to have inadvertently helped with the depression like this. :hugs:

173

Got anything to back this up beyond your feels?

With the huge number of illegals working in Texas you would think it be blue by now :laughing:

174

Already answered earlier. You knew that already though. :wink:

It’s actually sort of amazing. This is a phenomenon I see far too often on social media, especially Facebook. And it’s almost always older folks. And they almost always get defensive when you point out that not only is the story old, but it has already been debunked. They take it personally that they were wrong, instead of letting go of their pride and having the integrity to just admit they were wrong. And they lash out-blame libs for being meany heads in the first place. Instead of just admitting they were wrong.

It takes a few seconds of Googling to find out of a Facebook story is true. We want schools to teach critical thinking, but when they do, they get yelled at for liberal indoctrination.

The very people who get mad that our kids aren’t being taught to think are some of the same people who believe what they want to believe because it makes them feel good to believe it…not because it’s true. And then they get mad when kids are taught how to think.

Pretty clear he isn’t going back to tell his Facebook friends how wrong they are. What kind of friend let’s his friends continue to wallow in ignorance?

You believe anecdotal evidence over hard facts and data?

Why? Is this something you usually do?

I experience real life outside and interact with actual people on most days. Been like that all my life. :man_shrugging:

If I spent all my waking hours looking for things on the internet to validate myself with, I might not have ended up posting this OP. Glad I did though. lol

It’s a shame. Because I hear they are so normal, too.

I’m sure Trump’s running buddy, Vlad Putin, is laughing right now:

“Comrade Sergei! Another American clicked on fake story! This is too easy. Next up, post something about pizzagate!”

183

That gives you only a small slice of the picture. You directly interact with the tiniest slivers of “the real world and actual people”…and those tiny slivers are not representative of the population you are trying to make it representative of.

This is why anecdotes are rarely ever true.

PS I guarantee you you find more stuff on the Internet to “validate” what you believe is true than I do

It’s how you found the Facebook story in the first place.

Until a news story comes across your Facebook feed validating your false belief…then you rush to Hannity…shame it turned out not to be true :laughing:

Back to anecdotes…
