Fun fact, Trump ran for the Reform Party nomination, which eventually went to Pat Buchanan, back in 2000.

ranting: noun
a long, angry, and impassioned speech. “at times, his rantings would become incoherent”
adjective
speaking at length in an angry and impassioned way.
I’m more familiar with the definition that includes the length of the speech. If you were using a definition that only refers to the energy, then I wouldn’t call it hyperbole.
Calling it ranting is hyperbole, but but he did randomly start talking about immigrants murdering women when answering the question about abortion.
What’s updog?
Their not worried about it
Theoden: “You…”
Saruman: “No. That was a rhetorical question”
Theoden: “And I gave you a rhetorical answer”
Saruman: “Good Lord Sauron, I traded Boromir for this…”
Oh, that’s much better, added.

No Bottom Line is going to trick me into thinking I have worth!!!
This comment is beautiful. It manages to admonish another for a concept it in of itself can not grasp.
Besides complaining on the Internet?
I spend my available volunteer time assisting a local homeless shelter, and I donate roughly 3% of my income on supporting groups that I believe do good. Much less than I’d like, but I believe every bit helps.
Also I complain on the Internet.
On the contrary, it all matters. Try like hell, go down kicking and screaming, vote for Biden if only to prevent more holes from being drilled, push for class consciousness and solidarity, get organized, get involved, and bail water like crazy.
Just don’t mistake where you are in this image, and don’t mistake the Dems for allies, they are at best a useful tool.
100℅ that is who and what the post addressing. And I agree with its intended message. Its also therapeutic to read a strong statement like this, that strongly asserts the damage that can be caused by this (and other stigmatized) mental disorders.
I just think that given it was posted in a niche ADHD community, its more likely to be seen by people who are questioning if they have it rather than by people who trivialize it. And given that, I feel that its likely to cause folks who have undiagnosed ADHD to wonder if they are just “lazy” or “forgetful” or any of the other self deprecating labels many of us have told ourselves before getting diagnosed. Which is why I felt it would be helpful to post a counter message to that mentality.
While I get the point of this post, and don’t mean to trivialize anyone’s struggles with mental health. I think that this mentality is detrementail to the vast amount of people who suffer from undiagnosed ADHD.
If you feel like you might have ADHD and are considering getting help, don’t let posts like this push you away from getting an actual diagnosis.
You ask for civility, but you compare Alfred “Motherfucking” Pennysworth to Biden!? Alfred is a god damned certified bad ass! Of all the terrible comparisons! You sir, are obviously trying to be inflammatory!
