RE: The Whining Hypocrisy of Democrats
You're right I rarely post anything here any more. I have absolutely no idea what your reference to someone attacking the big bang theory is about. But I do know I wouldn't stop writing because of that. I live for setting science deniers and other purveyors of mystical woo-woo straight. If you don't know that, you haven't been paying attention for the past 10 years.

The main reason I don't waste my time writing or reviewing here is the fact that 90% of the writers here are members of the Jesus fan club (and most of them, being US evangelicals, are also therefore far-right). I don't appreciate how they constantly award each other 6-star reviews for writing drivel, and ignore any serious writing that isn't full of "hallelujah"s and "praise-be"s.

Also, the contest committee(s) and the site itself bend over backwards to give this group their way, as they know which side their bread is buttered on.

The site, of course, has the right to kowtow to whomever it likes, I just find the constant preaching pathetically boring. I'm rarely here because I get little useful feedback on what I write, and it's hard to find anything to read that doesn't bore me to tears.

For the record, I didn't come here to troll you. You don't interest me enough to bother. Why do you think everything is about you? I opened a thread and posted my thoughts. You went on the attack, with a rather childish response, mimicking my post, and I responded. And I'll continue to respond to every post on its merits as I see fit, regardless of who the poster is.

If you were writing anything of interest on the site, it would get a fair review from me. I attacked your rant here simply to show how ridiculously partisan it was. If you can totally change the meaning of something just by changing a few words, it shows that the original could have done a lot better.

...And then there were three...

Ohio's Haitian thugs
Eat all our cats and dogs!
To let them in
Was such a sin,
Gov'ment must be on drugs!

It has become quite apparent to me that this is a predominantly conservative (and more likely Republican and pro-Trump) site, where odds/advantages are skewed largely (though not completely) toward their favor.
I will, therefore, adjust my steps accordingly.

That was kind of a rough limerick, Go. And CD's stats on Christian conservatives here are quite a bit off. It's maybe around 50-60% conservative Evangelicals at best here. Half the entries in the political contests I host are pro-Harris. And just look at this forum, and count the posts and replies. I'm the lone moderate extremist here right now, with occasional contributions from Lance (also not a Trumper), Brett (who seems to be a nonpartisan whack job who doesn't actually reply to anything, and alternates mocking the two candidates), and one other reasonable person (Gloria) having to contend with you, Steve and CD who have all made it clear that you support Biden and Harris. Because there isn't even anyone here supporting Trump, you just assume I must be a closet Trumper just because I'm not getting a BJ from Kamala. This is what happens in echo chambers: anyone who isn't voting for your guy must be voting for the other guy. Well, time to get used to the political jungle.

As far as God, there is just one God of gorillas and it's Me. This has been uncontested in the FanStory religion forum, so obviously it's true. To anyone who agrees they evolved from gorillas, I AM your venerable ancestor, and you should be bowing before Me and bringing gifts of bananas to place at My feet. Especially you, CD. Kiss My pinky ring and I'll whisper the secrets of the universe into your ear.

I know why you are such a Trump fan, Harambe. He is an emotional child who thinks he can hide his ignorance and his inability to understand almost any issue in meaningless gobbledegook and made up "facts". Good luck to both of you.



Oh, and simply because I'm unable to let such nonsense pass, we are most definitely NOT evolved from gorillas. Back to school for you.

CD, you sound like the child whose mom is so fat that you can't see around her, so to you, everything looks like her. Seems you're the one with the Trump fetish. Like I told you about five times now, I have never voted for or supported Trump, and if you keep going on about it I will start mocking you in my writing pieces.

Oh no, not mocking me! Please no, don't do that! I'd better keep quiet or this infant will mercilessly pillory me! Get over yourself, chum.

I've got a better idea. I'll ignore your rubbish and you ignore me. How does that sound? Or you can continue your childish attempted bullying and I'll make up my mind if I can be bothered with it.

That sounds like a good idea. Let's leave you with the last words, even as the site has "Sultan of Slime" currently listed at the top of the homepage, for the readers to decide if your words resonate with them:

P.S. If I don't want something read, I won't post it at all, so thanks ;-)

RE: The Whining Hypocrisy of Democrats
Thanks for the info and for sharing your harrowing personal experience, H. That must've been beyond horrid! When I first heard of Haitians eating resident's pets at the debate I thought it bizarre, as it reminded me of similar, and equally false stories that circulated around Canada decades ago that the Chinese used cats in their cooking. So your chicken chow mein was supposedly cat chow mein.

Obviously it was offensive, racist nonsense and insulting too. Chinese labourers were good enough to build our railroad through perilous mountain ranges where many lost their lives, but damned if they were going to be allowed to open businesses in our country.

So I filed Trump's comment away as fiction told for dramatic effect to rile his base about immigration. But when the fact emerged that some 18,000 legal Haitian immigrants had moved into the small city of Springfield over the last five years I found the sheer numbers shocking. I tried to find further information because that time frame would've also included the last year of Trump's presidency, but I couldn't find anything; at least not easily. I don't see immigration as a partisan issue.

But, if this same thing happened in Canada that city's housing, schools, employment and local services including policing and health care would be overwhelmed to the point of dysfunction. Even though Canada has a significantly higher rate of immigration compared to the US that rapid level of population growth in one small city would require enormous planning and support from all levels of government and the community to ensure a smooth transition. That rate is irresponsibly high.

Here, immigrants can choose where they want to live, but there are government programs that "guide" their decision. And typically the "flyover" rural prairie provinces part of the country is not their location of choice mainly because of limited culture, fewer or non-existent local services and employment opportunities plus the winter months are long and radical. I imagine the US has similar programs.

Other points:

The net migration rate for the US in 2023 was approximately 2.75 per 1,000 people, compared to Canada's net migration rate of around 6.09 per 1,000 people.

https://www.macrotrends.net/global-metrics/countries/CAN/canada/net-migration

In the last five years, Canada has seen a significant number of Haitian immigrants. Between 2019 and 2023, approximately 44,000 Haitians were granted temporary resident status in Canada. This includes those who arrived on work or study permits, as well as those who sought asylum or were part of family reunification programs. Temporary residents are not allowed to vote.
