Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

You can "save" a bunch of money by not paying the Fire Department. It'll look great on a budget, and then you can enjoy the beautiful skyline of your city burning!
This is what they're doing, but with literally everything.
The country is going to implode.
Oh hey, I think we did that in 2017 with our pandemic response team. I hear there have been no negative consequences
There's no evidence of negative consequences.
That's true! I just looked for the website and there's nothing! Yay!!! I was worried something like 1.2 million Americans were dead because of it, but apparently not!
(Satire. The CDC website still exists. For now...)
But how could I? Especially without firemen to start the glow.
Hard to enjoy when the air quality is so bad that you can't even breath outside lol
It reminds me of sim city budget.
