Please help. West Texan here

I sent a LTTE to sanangelolive, this right wing paper. Didn't think they'd print it, and Yantis even thought he shouldn't...

The opinion piece has a graphic warning. Please go check this west tx opinion. He even provides my name. Check the description of me as a National Socialist with the pic of Hitler's march....March..... I'll try to send a link.

I hardly ever comment on DU. But I love so many of you folks. The fact he gave my name in the article annoys, because the comments are anonymous and mean as a trapped bobcat.

Any I really appreciate the DU family and, damn.

Also, My rep. August Plfuger, running unopposed WTF, deserves to know your opinion on election denial, if you have any.
Love and peace would sell!!!

Are about a dozen. Very few, and anonymous. I trolled them some and pushed back on the hateful rhetoric and they immediately censored me. They do it to any lib that's called their crap, which is typically hateful and totally Trump.

Anyway take a sec and check it out. Comment if you can. I can't. I would if I could.

But hey, if you want to play that game, why are you upset at getting called out by the editor? Frankly, that letter sounds just as unhinged as the QANON rants that I see on Twitter and Reddit.

I think asking people if they masturbate in a LTTE is crackpot territory. You apparently think it’s reasonable dialogue.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but what you said was factually incorrect, no matter how you try to spin it.

Sperm are not babies. According to the Catholic Church (and most people who want to ban abortion), a "baby" exists from the moment a sperm fertilizes an ovum. NOT before. Even those who believe masturbation is "sinful" don't equate it with "baby killing," unless they are very confused about how biology works.

If what you said was true, everyone with a working adult male reproductive system would be a mass murderer. Why? Because sperm only live for a few days inside the body whether ejaculation ever occurs or not. They're constantly dying off and being replaced.

So, no, what you said was wildly inaccurate and therefore not true.
