| For me, it seems like I'm committing a personal violation of some sort. I wouldn't walk up to a woman and grab her breast, but looking her in the eye kind of feels the same. |

| Why do people act like it would be so bad if Trump wins? Under Trump, the economy was strong, the world was a lot more peaceful and our border was way more secure. Why would anyone be afraid of going back to that? |

It would definitely be a poor substitute, but for some people, it could very much be better than nothing. |

Why wouldn't they want to try to go back to that? Back up your claims with evidence. Do you have any statistics or figures that s... |

| I don't see it happening. The Palestinians have been offered their own state multiple times with the only requirement being they have to recognize Israel's right to exist and they've refused every time. |

| Abrahamic religion is very phallocentric. I’m bored with penises. Worshiping Mary would be a pleasant change. . Exactly. Mary worship maybe heresy, or at least flirting with heresy. But the fault is not with the RCC, but with a flaw in Christianity itself (and Islam and Judaism as well). Humans (bo... |

I didn't think about eating out. I do do that on my own quite a bit. I guess I just considered that along the lines of running an errand.  It's not that I'm afraid to go out by myself, or don't like it, it's just that I usually can't think of anything I want to go do (other than eat out) by myself. |

| Overall, it's just social isolation. Without any friends, I can't think of anything to go do by myself so I pretty much don't leave my house anymore except to run errands or something. |

| It's driving me nuts. I have no friends at least friends that live near me. Other than running errands I don't go anywhere or do anything because I can't think of anything to do by myself. Going to "social events" doesn't work for me because I don't enjoy just talking to strangers. What's ... |

| Trump will be the greatest danger America ever faced if he gets in again. People can criticize mainstream media all they like, but in my opinion it's just an excuse to rely on one's preferred echo chambers. Think about if. If Trump says, 'blah blah blah' and the Leftist media directly quotes him as... |
