Former Rockets broadcaster expressed his feeling about James Harden

straw man
/ˌstrô ˈman/

noun

1. 1.
   an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent's real argument.
   "Low ball IQ poster Texanasiafan has a familiar procedure of creating a straw man by exaggerating their approach."

 

No one has a right to a specific social media account... Yes if you do or support ****ed up **** you could potentially lose your job... BREAKING NEWS.

Systemic racism exists regardless of your belief... That's an empirical fact, but unfortunately you're ignorant of that either willfully or otherwise.

Obviously all cops aren't "bad", but we have a corrupt justice system in this country and police uphold and enforce that "bad" corrupt system... Much of that corruption stems directly to these law enforcement agencies, but no it's not the fault of any single individual cop.

You're a Christian in a country where that is the predominant major religion and you think you're beliefs aren't represented in this country? Is this a joke? This is delusional.... We have freedom of religion and your beliefs are absolutely and OBVIOUSLY represented, but what they shouldn't be is legislated as this is NOT A THEOCRACY.

The Democrats aren't trying to take away the right to own a gun... This alludes to a typical strawman.

Saying something is just a political opinion really has no substance and someone can reasonably hate someone or dislike them for an opinion as opinions aren't simply benign... Someone believing black people are inferior or less than is AN OPINION.
Someone believing people from other nations are inferior or in some cases should not be valued as human beings is an OPINION...
That's a ****ed up opinion and it's one Trump clearly shares as he's shown time and time again how xenophobic he is and maybe you don't know that he pardoned Blackwater war criminals who massacred Iraqi civilians... I guess there lives didn't matter much eh.

This is hardly praiseworthy, but thankfully Trump didn't start a new war sure... Yet he absolutely increased troops after "bringing them back"... He raised tensions by assassinating a foreign general and did more drone strikes in one term than Obama did in two terms.... He also continued to assist the Saudis in a genocide of Yemen and went as far to veto a bipartisan passed War Resolution to STOP FUNDING THE SAUDIS MASSACRE OF INNOCENT WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN YEMEN because he's bought by the Saudis and is basically their b**** boy.

"Filled court seats" this literally says nothing of substance.
He didn't drop the price of insulin... The rule Trump proposed at the very end of his term to potentially go into affect after the election was as a ploy for his reelection... It is only applicable to community health centers and the 60-day regulatory freeze is not causing the price of insulin to increase at community health centers... There is no evidence to suggest the rule would even further lower insulin costs at those facilities, which already offers deep discounts on insulin and other medication.

He strained relationships with most of our world leaders and pulled out of the Iran Deal which only further increased tensions there and created a blind spot to nuclear proliferation... He did buddy up to foreign dictators and fawn over many of them and sure there were peace treaties between other nations.. not treaties with the US and that had nothing to actually do with Trump.

He's said numerous racist ****, Anti LGBTQ ****, and other garbage... The entire birtherism **** he was at the forefront of was massively racist and was the Central Park 5 **** and that's before he even got in office.

Yeah you've said that he did and you may not be racist, but you're willfully ignorant....

Left or right isn't corrupt AF... Those are two sides of the political spectrum....
The Democrats and Republican parties are both largely corrupt af yes, but the reasons why and to what degree is likely lost on you and no the Democrats aren't a left wing party... The Dems are center right and the GOP is far right.

 

U should Start an only fans and then pay to watch yourself.

 

The last part of your post was laughable. I am the son of immigrant parents from Nigeria. Being born and raised in the Catholic Church I can not relate to what the current Democratic Party is. It would be a crime againist my entire religion to support such a party. Trump had his warts and yes he was an ******* at times. But the current administration supports filth and degeneracy that I can’t rock with. I was young when the Trayvon shooting happened so yea in the beginning I began to support blm( even buying shirts) and donating but as I got older I can see what they have become. I know this will sound xenophobic but I can’t see myself being led by a woman. I don’t know what kind of headstrong man would allow themselves to be in a matriarchal system. It’s why so many young millennial brothas are dating outside their race. And also why the SYSBM scene has exploded among black male youths. Once black men realize that they are for the most part on their own. Then you start looking at policies and the overall behavior of the person you are voting for becomes an afterthought

 

You realize what you just said here has nothing to do with the last part of my post right? You being raised in the Catholic Church is irrelevant to what I said.... The Democrats are center right and the GOP is far right... This is blatantly evident if you know anything about the policy positions and legislation in this country.

As I've said... This is not a theocracy...
It's also hilarious to say it goes against your religion more than the GOP when Christian Conservatism is essentially an oxymoron... Jesus was far more of a socialist than he was a conservative... He absolutely would be for more welfare not less... He would be in favor of universal healthcare as a right... I can go on.

You think Jesus would be FOR further enriching the ultra wealthy? You think he'd agree with a tax plan where 83% of the tax cuts went to the top 1%... A Trump tax plan where the individual tax cuts are temporary and the corporate tax cuts are permanent? A Trump tax plan that will effectively raise taxes on all Americans making 75K or less the last 6 years of the plan if not repealed? LOL.

That's not necessarily xenophobic, but it's absolutely sexist and ignorant af... I dislike Kamala Harris because of her record and past corruption... Not because she's a woman.

You said little to nothing about policy and seem far more focused on the social and culture war issues... And your positions there seem misguided and the degree of their importance or impact materially is overstated if not backed up by policy arguments and legislation.

 

Another political idiot LOL... Gas prices.
This has nothing to do with the President and everything to due with sudden increase in supply and demand coming off the pandemic & rampant price gouging.

The average retail price of gasoline while Obama was president was $2.97. The average price under President Donald Trump was $2.49... Which includes lower prices due to the pandemic... The fact is presidents don’t actually have much effect if any on gas prices... The policies they set have very limited impact.. The U.S. Energy Information Administration shows that more than half of the retail cost of gasoline is determined by the price of crude oil, and that price is driven, largely, by supply and demand.

The EIA, the U.S. agency, “Efforts to mitigate COVID-19’s spread led to a collapse in global petroleum product demand.” demand is lagging what it was in 2019 and “future demand for petroleum products remains highly uncertain as COVID-19 infection rates are rising in a number of countries.”
The weekly average price for regular gasoline in the U.S. dropped from $2.58 at the beginning of the year to $2.14 in the most recent week, hitting a low of $1.77 in late April 2020, according to data from the EIA.

The issue of supply and demand is why prices at the pump had been so low in 2020. Due to the outbreak of the coronavirus, global oil demand dropped by 5.6 million barrels per day in the first quarter of the year, compared to the previous year, according to the International Energy Agency.
With a steep decline in road traffic, “gasoline was the fuel with the largest absolute decline in demand related to Covid‑19 containment measures,” according to an April 2020 report from the IEA.

Yes you're an idiot. GTFO

 

Clanton had smoke for deshaun and harden but let correa and watt turn on this city without any heat for them

 

Nothing wrong with being a Harden fan and recognizing his greatness, and all that he did for the Rockets, turning them into contenders with much less supporting talent than his rivals.

The problem is when people start irrationally putting down all the other great players of this decade, as if that is somehow going to make Harden look better.

Harden has proven to be one of the great offensive players ever, and we don't need to denigrate the other top offensive players whose careers coincide with his, whether it's LeBron or Curry or KD, in order to prove this. I realize that Harden gets a lot of ridiculous hate, but unfortunately rolling out ridiculous arguments against the other great ones results in making some Harden fans look like idiots.

 

Revisiting the OP... anytime anyone uses the word "stans" in any context it's guaranteed that whatever they say is going to be overly basic and intellectually insulting.

Edit: I see this was already covered in the thread. Still worth saying again.

 

It's also ok to recognize that Harden was extremely selfish and he did not know what we needed to be a championship contender even though he insisted he did and he forced us into the worst trade in franchise history.

 

only comment in this thread that matters is from my mans @Asian Sensation

 

Harden stans doing what they do best. Deflecting. Brian Windhorst says something negative about Harden? Well he’s fat durrr! Stephon Marbury brings up Harden’s critical mistake in 2021 playoffs. Well what’s Marbury ever won?! Dunno who this Clanton guy is and don’t care about his political stance or opinion on Kaepernicks kneeling but he’s right about Harden you know.

 

Uhh....the Texans were struggling and let Watt go to win a championship elsewhere. Astros chose not to bring back Correa.
Harden is a dick who screwed the city and franchise. Watson is a rapist.

Is it that hard to understand?

 

correa brought shame to the city with the worst cheating scandal in Major League Baseball since 1919. Imagine if harden or deshaun did something like that then left houston for less money. Adam would drill them

jj watt is the nfls James harden yet he is revered in houston like he actually came close to winning anything of substance lol

keep making excuses but I been knew Adam Clantons temperature when it came to blk players in houston.

also what If I told you the truth is the Texans never wanted a blk qb to be the face of their franchise that was Rick smiths call. The Texans see themselves as New England patriots lite. They are gonna stick with Davis mills even if we have the number 1 pick next year and can possibly draft Bryce young or cj stroud lol

 

lol what does that have to do with anything? Dumbest take I’ve seen on here and that’s saying a lot

I guess the only thing worse would be a giant Biden supporter …. How’s your 401k? Enjoying those gas prices? Man sure is good to pay Almost double in interest rates. Normally I try to stay a-political on here but if your still here b****ing about trump when the geriatric memory loss patient in the white house being puppeted by a bunch of socialists destroying decades of economic gain then you are broke beyond repair

 

OMG @Asian Sensation is right. The racist ass @HardenVolumeOne is back. I just had to see for it myself.

 

I was a harden fan bc he was a rocket. That was over the minute he left but I don't get the hate for his fans. He has moved on, his fans still choose to root for him so who cares ?
They are not as annoying as lofs so I am not as hot and bothered about it

 

JJ Watt and Correa still have fans in the city. But somehow its racist for watson and harden to have fans in houston still foh
