I've discovered, over decades of "debate", that people often place their thesis into the first few words of their communication in written forums.

Your first few words:

"Stop being so triggered…"

— from which I can infer that you make the demand that I stop — not going to happen — that I stop being — also not happening — that I stop being in a particular attitude — again: answer is "No" — and an assertion that I am "Triggered".

It is the last assertion that I want to take you to task over.

Do I seem emotional to you? Am I writing in such a way that I am asserting my own emotions, and asserting that my emotions are of the utmost import in this conversation?

Don't answer that; it's a rhetorical question, and the answer of rhetorical questions is almost always meant to be "No".

Am I writing that I find the word offensive? Is this about my feelings?

Or am I actually appealing to science?

See, that one you also shouldn't answer. It, too, is a rhetorical trick — I already know what the audience's answer is, and I already know what your answer is.

That's a rhetorical trick — a trick to get you to respond in a particular manner, to expose your own attitudes and biases and preconceptions.

To the audience.

Maybe to you, too. But typically, that part I'm never around for.

It normally happens in dreams, or in conversations with friends or lovers, or experiencing the situation thrust upon you by necessity, from your own realisations, or those of your children.

So perhaps you may sense here that I feel that my part of this "exchange" is over, that I can produce little or no more communication.

So perhaps I shall — rather than "Stop" — simply … move on.

You don't have to be a Democratic party member, no.

Maybe — just maybe — some people who aren't owned by industries and bigots will retake control of the Republican party.

Maybe there needs to be a new party. Call it the Lincoln party, maybe.

One which holds conservative fiscal policy platform planks but socially holds fast to the notion of "MYOB".

I am hearing "She's just so frickin' bad gasps for breath"

The gasp for breath is what's being interpreted as -tch

Hey folks, I have listened to (and then viewed) the video that is cited as the source of this claim;

I am hearing "She's just so frickin' bad gasps for breath"

The gasp for breath is what's being interpreted as -tch

To counter misinfo, we're stickying this explanation & locking (but not yet removing) posts about this claim.

We're not wasting time, here. This is something we do — verify, verify, verify.

Stark contrast to "Children are being held in a pizzeria basement & auctioned off on a furniture sales website" credulousness of his constituents

Under the Trump administration, there was an executive order that legally mandated emergency medical treatment could be ignored if a provider was icked by a transgender patient.

The only reason to do this was to legally make us untermenschen, un-persons, to jumpstart the state legally murdering us.

A second Trump presidency would result in open genocide.

You should. The rally shooter was almost certainly a radicalised White Identity Extremist; there's a coherent group identity of extremists who hate Trump because he "let" his daughter marry into the Jewish faith, supports Israel, and he has no plans to resume the Holocaust.

(Fuentes is, frankly, part of that group).

And they're angry that Trump is bumbling towards another loss, and has taken control of the Republican party, and damaging the reputations and careers of so many Republicans.

If they oppose Trump, and you oppose Trump, they might try to buddy up to you.

That's worth watching out for. It's also one reason why we instantly permanently ban anyone who makes any kind of violent threat in any subreddit — Domestic Violent Extremists including White Identity Extremists are known to false flag movements to manufacture political propaganda, terrorism, etc.

I am certain you do not wish to argue that several years ago you assaulted me at Tanglewood Forest. Several of your fellow company members have chased me and thwapped me with Amtgard -legal boffer weapons on Company Road while I was making announcements on behalf of Kingdom Officers.
