I always thought CBD was an abbreviation for Central Business District. :sneaky:

The Tea Party, being the ill-begotten child of the RNC and Rupert Murdoch, had an incestuous tryst with the RNC and gave birth to Donald Trump, thus perpetuating the CBD cycle of regeneration.

Which CBD are we talking about?

The CBD that is exhibited by cognitively dissonant conservatives, or the THC-like compound found in weed that has anti-inflammatory properties?

I see both in the news and on the forums, frequently. ;)

On day 1, pond is 1% covered by lillypads. No one notices.
On day 2, pond is 2% covered by lillypads. No one notices.
On day 3, pond is 4% covered by lillypads. Someone notices. They have CBD.
On day 4, pond is 8% covered by lillypads. A few people notice. They have CBD.
On day 5, pond is 16% covered by lillypads. A whole lot of people notice. But they all have CBD.
On day 6, pond is 32% covered by lillypads. It is too late to do anything. In 2 days all fish in the pond are dead.

On year 1, 1% of the country's population is muslim, 50% of whom polls show favor sharia law. No one notices.
On year 5, 2% of the country's population is muslim, 50% of whom polls show favor sharia law. No one notices.
On year 10, 4% of the country's population is muslim, 50% of whom polls show favor sharia law. Someone notices. They have CBD.
On year 15, 8% of the country's population is muslim, 50% of whom polls show favor sharia law. A few people notice. They are rayycists. And they have CBD.
Need I go on? Is there a frickin point? You either get it or you dont. Whether it is sharia law, or just immigrants from leftist countries who do not respect our Republic, who would trade it for a welfare check, in the end it is all the same. Just lillypads. There is a reason some nations survive hundreds of years, while others begin and end within a generation. Traditions and values.

American society always wins, that's what we do we assimilate cultures. I'd find it hard to believe that generations in America will make a Muslim's family more conservative or extreme.

So from you this morning we've got 'poor people spend their money on 40s' and 'Muslims are coming to implement Sharia law'.

You're on quite a roll today, haha.

What I find perplexing is that when some Muslims really do behave badly (9/11), he doesn't believe it.

I did and it sounds pretty funny. Can you link it?

Here you go:

I'm not sure why you would post this here. Almost nothing but cowardly drones here, who will never even look at anything that even hints at threatening their drone status. You could tell on day 1 that something was wrong just by seeing molten steel pouring out the building by the gallon. Most of the drones just ignored it. But some tried to claim it was aluminum from the plane. Even college educated folks claiming that this orange liquid was aluminum! What in the world could actually create molten steel? Most of them cant even comprehend the simple chemistry and physics involved.

People lie. People misremember. That is why film is so important. What we saw on the film was irrefutable. There were multiple shots from multiple angles that all show the same thing: evidence that temperatures reached were far beyond what was possible from kerosene fire. And yet there were people standing less than 10 feet away from where the molten steel was pouring out the building. So we have direct and irrefutable evidence of highly localized extremely high temperature zones within a damage zone that overall was relatively cool. The implications are interesting. But drones dont want to know. Just vote for Hillary and do not question! And when it happens again, close your eyes and heil. Do NOT ask questions. Just make stupid remarks about twoofers and nuts. Because being stupid is what makes you smart. Orwell said so.

It's a misnomer. It's not a brain defect.

It's Conservaterrorist Brain Disilluionment due to other people being equal as them. They have nostalgia of being able to push everyone around to suit their needs but the world no longer works that way.

He has quite the case of CBD. It could as easily be called the catastrophizing brain defect, as it items to require an enlarged right amygdala and a less developed cingulate than is found in liberal brains, in short, a brain affected by conditioned to a focus on fear. He sees lily pads in his breakfast cereal.

There are real and imaginary dangers. A society in which liberal and conservative brains are on the sane team gives that society a balanced response to external threats whereas a society in which liberals and conservatives are at war with each other, a fate that seems to happen when the CBD has no real external threat to focus on and turns to destroying liberals as an erzot threat, is a society that destroys itself.

God help the society in which the real danger to its survival IS the CBD.

:Yes Sir. it's quite scary.

sadly i do believe Trump will win this election, mostly because of the fact that i'm pretty much convinced our elections aren't... exactly.. real... and to keep civil unrest to a minimum, they'll stick to the playbook of giving each side of the two party illusion, they're two terms, after that we'll have another "D" in the whitehouse, and rinse/repeat again after that....

but that's another issue altogether, and for another thread...

however, i dont think he'll mess things up too much, he'll just be another puppet, and it will be business as usual here in the States... he'll flip flop his way to the dead center before the election, and his presidency will be basically the same thing we've had for the last 16 years.

This is what CBD looks like.

Haidt (who based his theory on earlier work by Schweder) proposed that moral values consist of 6 foundations. (Listed below with their moral opposites in brackets)

Care (harm): cherishing and protecting others
Fairness (cheating): rendering justice according to shared rules
Loyalty (betrayal): standing with your group, family, nation
Authority/Respect (subversion) : obeying tradition and legitimate authority.
Sanctity/Purity (degradation) : abhorrence for disgusting things, foods, actions
Liberty (oppression): the loathing of tyranny
