Biden Crime Family. Uniparty. Deep State. How much more ‘evidence’ of this alliance of sorts do you sheeple need? And clearly the only solution is appointing TFG dictator, duh. ---

Clearly we need to elect a president who has suggested he would use the Justice Department to go after his political rivals in order to restore ethics in government. ---

> [@ParallelLines](#): > > Of course, **since HBDC is a climate change denier** (stating it, not discussing it because he’s on a board wide ban of discussing it including the Pit, so don’t want to bait him with it) […] [Bolding mine] I’m not sure HBDC considers himself a climate change denier so he might take issue with your statement. Since he’s not allowed to rebut your comment, isnt that rather like baiting him? ---

And I’m sure there are plenty of people who don’t consider themselves racist/bigoted (such as HBDC!) but absolutely are (also see HBDC). But out of respect for you (I have none for HBDC) I will rephrase that as “HBDC continues to break board rules regarding anthropogenic climate change claims” which is entirely factual. 🙂 Although, since I brought it up (looks upthread) almost a week ago, I think you bringing it up a second time is probably worse for HBDC’s feelings than my original statement. FTR I was trying to point out the reasons why I think HBDC is a contra-factual waste of space who lies about their motivations on that among MANY other subjects, but was trying to considerate about not trying to discuss how and why he was such an idiot _on that subject_ out of respect for the ban. ---

I see another thread started by HoneyBadger about genetics, and I tell myself don’t read it, don’t read it. And then I slip up and read it. And my head hurts.

All of his questions could be answered by taking some pre-high school biology. But he insists on bringing his totally baked ‘’‘’‘theories’‘’‘’ here and being shown how and why he’s wrong in now way slows him down. Honeybadger has the honor of being ‘[top left](https://mctoon.net/top-left/)’. ---

I thought that thread was going to be something about evolutionary psychology. Little did I know it would be looking for mechanisms for Lamarckism. ---

Gotta admit, I got a real kick learning the gonads were protected by the blood-brain barrier. Am I recalling correctly that HBDC typically posts while high? 'Cause I would hate to think anybody could post that kind of shit while sober. ---

You’ve got to give him props for persistence. Anyone else would’ve given up and actually read something on biology, even inadvertently. But his ability to avoid absolutely everything that would clue him in on how the body works is impressive. ---

In normal times, I would have just assumed all these threads would have triggered some vague memories of high school biology. But considering the average Americans total lack of recall of what was taught in basic Civics or History classes, maybe not. At least now, there’s a new retort to “they didn’t teach anything useful in school”, namely “No, your dumb ass just didn’t pay any attention” ---
