    I’ve spent a few blissful weeks enjoying the Astros and just reading D and D. I thought sufficiently lowly enough of the Republican Party that I didn’t really think it could get meaningfully lower. But here we are. Seems like everywhere you look, there is one Republican figure doing something dumber than the last. There isn’t a bottom and if this BBS is indicative, it doesn’t matter. Conservatives don’t care how racist, idiotic their representatives are. The R is the only thing that matters.

    Go Astros.

    You sir are the Herschel Walker of Clutchfans. Each time you try to come off looking smart you show off your 3rd grade mentality.

    I think an anti-trust argument against Apple is hard to make in regard to the prevalance of Android. With this particular case though it's even harder to make if you can still access twitter from their webpage using the Sarfari webbrowser.

    Apple can open up to any appstore and just not warranty their phones except for an absolute hardware issue. Then you have to prove a rogue app didn't fry the hardware. Have fun with that.

    I mean Google and Samsung phones run android and those are consumer devices for the mass public to consume and they allow side loading of apps. Does it add risk? Sure but it isn't making Android fall apart.

    I agree, however Apple is its own eco system. The warranty process is totally different.

    Sorry you are upset. It's hilarious you had to edit a two sentence response. Thanks for proving my point

    Windows PC doesn’t have an AppStore (well it does now but…) and the HW has been fine.

    This isn’t a hw warranty issue. It’s a UX, branding, and security issue. Users intuitively know that you aren’t getting an Apple UX and security when you decided to use SW outside of the Apple AppStore.

    Haha. OK Herschel.

    The next correct point you have will be the first. That’s why you throw around terms like “dumbocrats”, you lack the mental capacity to have an intelligent discussion.

    You bring nothing of value to the board. Just another name to add to the ignore list.

    Not reading your drivel. I had no clue who you were before so the ignore list won't matter (lol at being such a puss you have to ignore someone on the internet)

    What a weird post. Nobody’s worked up about Hitler but you. I was just being a history nerd with the whole Hunting Hitler conspiracy that is only a thing because he was a coward and never really faced the music. I just think it’s an interesting point in history to look back on and realize that maybe justice could be served better next time and maybe this time the Catholic Church doesn’t smuggle out of the country hundreds of Nazis to Argentina to live out their days in luxury.

    But to be honest your post here is weird and has me wondering if you are actually trying to make a case that there was some good that came from Hitler. Fu$k that BS. Nothing but pure evil came from that piece of excrement.

    Which did you choose to say? One leaves no doubt, the other leaves it open to you being another Ye. Words matter counselor.

    Hitler did at least one great thing... He killed Hitler!

    At least does not imply more than one, it implies only more than zero. Obviously saying that killing Hitler is good implies that Hitler is bad.

    Conservatives have no issue saying Hitler is bad. They have issues on explaining WHY he was bad. Probably a coping mechanism for the fact that many of Hitler's values align with modern American conservativism. Hitler also would be b****ing about trans people in restrooms.

    The fact that we’re even having a debate on whether Hitler did any good shows the state of the Republican Party and current conservative movement.

    There is no debate, just confusion. No one in this thread had actually argued that Hitler did any good.

    But in the general public, there is always that. Ye was a weird character for the GOP to latch on to (not really weird, the GOP has gone down the hell hole of horrible personality) and well, they got burnt. Well deserved.
