No sympathy for this dumb fuck. Don't vote for tariffs if you don't even know what they are.

Legitimate question- do you know any IRL? I am convinced that these people will stand by Trump no matter what. I live in a Trump heavy district and everyone is talking about how hard this is but how it's all actually a genius negotiating tactic. They truly cannot believe that Trump isn't their Savior.

Lmao your case sounds very similar to me except I haven't been banned, but apparently mostly because I just lurk most of the time because reddit sucks more and more every day. The last straw was them getting rid of messages and not giving a good old.reddit alternative which made me realize they're going to kill old reddit soon, and I refuse to use their shitty new UI. I've been on there for like 13 years and I feel like it's gotten way worse way faster in the past year than it has in a long time.

How'd you manage to get banned?

$25k and climbing but thankfully that's pretty much all in my retirement and I'm not touching it for several more decades.

Isn't that what Canada last time he announced a Tariff then dropped it? They just said "Nope not dropping ours until you calm the fuck down"

Good. These dumbasses mostly voted for this, and they're getting their reward.

Legit question- who is this for? I can't imagine anyone getting to PC Master Race on Lemmy that would fall for something this obvious.

It's more complicated than that since I do believe God exists but in a way that is incomprehensible to humans, and, according to all evidence, doesn't "intervene" with the universe. I say "intervene" because God, as classically described, is simultaneously incapable of intervening and incapable of not intervening. If we define God as "an omnipotent being"(which, for the record, I do not), then He is necessarily also all knowing and exists outside of the limitations of time and space. Such a being would be perfectly optimized as well, and so it would be impossible for anything to occur without its express permission and cause. Therefore, under classical theism, it seems impossible for God to say, answer prayers, because this would imply that He could possibly change His mind or that what was happening wasn't already what He wants to begin with.

It kind of fell apart when Trump lost in 2020 and Q (a.k.a. Ron Watkins) stopped posting after Jan 6. QAnon style beliefs are pretty mainstream in conservative circles now, but QAnon as an organized set of beliefs kind of fell apart without continuous revelation from Q himself. It's kind of funny, Q actually posted again a couple years after and nobody really cared because they had sort of moved on. The QAA podcast (formerly QAnon Anonymous) put forth a theory that QAnon arose as a way to explain why Trump wasn't actually making America great again even though he was president, and so it's possible that it will come back in the second president. I think it's definitely possible.

Eh. I could care less about downvotes and I understand that the idea of practicing Christianity for reasons beyond personal faith in it is going to be controversial to Christians and atheists alike. If someone made a chill Atheist/agnostic "church" where there was singing and discussions on moral philosophy, and a community of people devoted to helping each other and their community I'd probably be doing that but as it stands religion is the only game in town for such things and I think that it's good to do something like this. Plus I don't know, it's kind of cool to be a part of rituals people have been doing for thousands of years.

It's complicated but I used to be essentially atheist but now believe that there is something one might as well call "God" after studying philosophy. Essentially everything has a cause and something must be at the end of that chain, and we might as well call that "God." I also practice Christianity because I feel that it is good to have the community and structure that a religion can provide but I don't think that "God" necessarily exists in the way Christianity typically presents it.
