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.

Oh come on. There can't possibly be that many people outside the US right?
Well, there are at least twelve of us
Woah hold your horses there bossman. You and the guy in OPs post. You got a way to go before you can back that claim of "at least" up!
How sure are we that u/colmear isn't just an alt of OP? It could be just OP claiming they don't live in the US!
Your right. I'm such a fool! There's no hope!

Okay let's count. There's you, there's me. That makes two already... ehm who else?
