So much so that my insurance covers them.

Your insurance covers funerals for miscarriages?

Society outside of your progressive bubble does actually.

People wouldn't have spent millions of dollars developing 3D ultrasounds (which have zero medical use) to see the face of meaningless foetus.
My health insurance doesn't tell people to sign up for the Discovery Foetus program. They tell people to sign up for the Discovery Baby program.

Zero medical use? What utter rubbish.

CoNSpIrAcY ThEOy is probably a swipe at ya bois Kieppie and Sollie who don't seem to know what a whistleblower complaint is:



Perhaps you could explain it to them?

If you need an example of an actual complaint as a visual aid, there's one right in that link I posted that Kieppie commented on.
Jissus, now you have SDS and BuDS on top of your TDS? Why are you dragging me into your crappy arguments using Buka's crap. :ROFL: :ROFL::X3:

After 26 weeks, although that part is getting legally challenged.

Have you actually been to an ultrasound?

You pretty much see squat on the 3D one. Our baby looked like an alien :laugh:.

Our doctor did all the checks with the 2D one, including things like cleft palates. If they were medically important, they would have already been the defacto way that doctors do their job.
From your article:
3D and 4D ultrasounds are optional. They're not standard prenatal tests. Doctors often give them as a courtesy to women who want them.

Not all doctors have access to 3D or 4D ultrasounds. Also, your insurance may not cover the cost.
Out of everyone that health insurance covers, they make the most money from babies and children. If these scans actually provided medical value they would have been covered.

You keep deflecting with the "I don't put anyone on a pedestal, but you do" line.

Right wing conservatives and the alt-right are very fond of this.

Remember looong ago in forum time, 3 weeks, I said I'm a centrist? Then Orbital had the brainfart of telling me I'm lying. It would be interesting to see some of your Political compass test results. Might better understand why you think the way you do.

Look at the popularity on Facebook and youtube of the likes of Ben Shapiro.

And look at the time before his daughter nuked his health, Jordan Peterson. Criticise him and by god you would get a 1000000 replies of bUT AKshUAlly have you watched 70 hours of his youtube videos and read 2 of his books? How vacuous does ones ideas need to be that you can only understand it in such a manner?

You see it plenty, there is always a go to figure for them. Whether it is Pim Tool, Syxhenhammer or Andy Ngo, you see it in their commentary about how much youtube podcasts they have been watching and listening to.

I haven't used facebook in a long long time and the friends I had on there wouldn't share news anyway. Youtube is pretty balanced. You can find a viewpoint from every angle. So nothing wrong with it having non left-wing narratives. You need some kind of counterpoint to the mainstream.
  • Ben is a normal moderate conservative, nothing extreme about him. With wrong takes and correct takes
  • Jordan is not a conservative. He got typecast as this because of his stance against forced speech. Just because people in the US do not know what a classical British Liberal actually means
  • No clue what Styx is
  • Tim Pool is in fact left of center. I watched some of his stuff back in occupy wall street before the far-left went insane and abandoned the moderates
The fact that you fail to grasp that IS the problem. You could do well to listen to some of their episode to get a more balanced view or are you agreeing that there is a echo chamber on the left?

Most right wing conservatives and the alt-right cannot find it in themselves to criticise Trump for anything. Even the most straight forward screw ups. Even when it is in his own words, there is always some magic justification that they exonerate him for.

The very idea that someone cannot find it in themselves to criticise someone, places that person on a pedestal. Above reproach.
Alt-right is a misnomer. Anything not run of the mill conservative is labelled as such where originally it was meant for factions like the Neo-Nazi's

The no Critique is also a lie It is very easy to criticize Trump and most do it just gets lost is the screaming masses from the left over every single thing.

Have you read his book? Have you looked at the well stocked bibliography. What do you have an issue with?
I Bought the book and gave it to my mom to read. She only managed a few chapters and found it too long winded with to many tangents. Keep in mind she has read the likes of Tolstoy . Sounds like she nailed his normal style

Buka gets shown a well stocked bibliography and he responds with an opinion piece. Talk about bringing a knife to a gunfight.
Ta da! As expected. You choose not to address any of the comments from the author which criticise points made by the Messiah. Instead you deflect back to, but YoU NEEd tO WaTcH HiS vIDEos and ReaD hIS BOoks.

The author did.

The author is criticising points made my JBP.

Care to address those?

A whistleblower does not a conspiracy make. More than likely this is just attention seeking. It's not as if whistleblowers are held to task if it turns out to be incorrect.

It's pretty easy. Why would they do this?
I won't be surprised if this woman heard it from someone who heard it from someone. This is how most bombshells came to be recently.

The people in this thread are obsessed with Left vs Right identification. The political compass test is worthless. It's a collection of questions that are ambiguous and are not even relevant to this day and age. Left vs Right also differs between Europe and the USA.

Be like a duck and let this nonsense roll off your back.

I did not know that, but I guess that Trump and his supporters would know what the Russian anthem sounds like.
No I don't think Trump supporter knows it, but educated people do. So why don't you?

What peeves me about that is how cowardly the attempt was to troll, zero netiquette. @greg0205

Right until the kid is delivered... then you want no welfare assistance, no meal assistance, no free education and no healthcare or housing assistance programs for the kid or the mother.

Bootstraps and what-not.

Soylent Green for the 1% konfab, amirite?

Free education is a bunch of tripe political slogan. Focus on quality affordable primary & secondary schooling. It is much more beneficial than tertiary for the majority of people.

Birth control is a... choice.

You get that, right?

Also, let me commend you on your bravery for your proximity to the forced hysterectomy discussion... I was sure you were going to do your best to ignore and avoid it.
Hey Greg did you hear about the whistleblower alleging a pedophile ring under pizzahut?
