lol probably. There's a way to spin almost anything into a negative.

plot twist: I'm actually a Christian, and believe that people should be allowed to live their lives in peace, and they sure as fuck don't need me to try and force my faith down their throats. Modern day Christians are dishearteningly un-Christlike. Although, they've been that way for centuries, so it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, really.

During the first 20 seconds I was thinking "OK...".

Then her response in the last half of the clip...

I actually think the "then just marry one woman : shrug :" is the better bite. it's what should be but never is the obvious answer presented as a subversion and that presentation carries with it the subtext of "fuck yall for not giving everyone else the same courtesy".

Nothing novel there. A woman has already made him look stupid in a debate multiple times. I'm looking forward to seeing more people realize how brilliant and capable Warren is, though. "then just marry one woman" is the perfect response in today's climate.

Yeah, barring any unexpected events I think that Warren is going to win the nomination.

I stopped the clip at the "then just marry one" and thought it was great.

Did not like the second half as much because it was fairly mean.

I came in here to scold OP for hyperbole and superfluous thread-making.

I was wrong. That was indeed savage enough to be thread-worthy.

hoping she passes Biden in the polls soon.

Incidentally this is actually what it really comes down to with a lot of conservative culture beliefs. The real problem is not even the belief itself, but the belief behind it that they should be able to force that belief on the whole nation and/or world.

Don't believe in gay marriage? Fine, don't get gay married. Problem solved.

Don't believe in abortion? By all means, don't get an abortion.

You believe strongly in standing for and reciting the pledge of allegiance and proudly saluting the flag? Go for it.

Don't believe in expressing yourself as a gender other than the one you were assigned at birth? Then don't.

You believe in the bible and the ten commandments? Feel free to paste that shit all over your home.

But of course that's not what the issue at hand really is. It's really about the right to force the rest of the world to bow to what you believe.

Yes, it's always frustrating and baffling hearing about anti-lgbt "beliefs". My trans identity, pronouns, name, ect are not a debate anyone can have "beliefs" on. The arrogance to think someone has any say or agency with it is staggering. But somehow I'm supposed to accept different "opinions"

I really regret doubting Warren after the DNA testing gaffe. She's my top candidate now and I would be over the moon if she got elected.

If you democratic Americans don't nominate this woman, you lose the right to complain about politics and will deserve whats coming to you.
