The bar don't lie as Henry Rollins said. You can lie to yourself or interpret it how you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you lift what you lift.
Lobster quoting Henry Rollins is my new favorite thing.

You mean MISquoting Henry Rollins?
Unless I missed it.
I thought Henry Rollins was known for saying "the IRON doesn't lie / never lies".

Yes, how do we know it was Henry Rollins when everything is subjective to how you "feel" about reality?

It's easy. Direct quotes from identified and agreed upon sources are verifiable facts and not subject to opinions.

Well, you guys can decide what you want, since many of you already ignore reality.
Your reality is not my reality. Yours is not worse, not better, just different. We watch the same thing and it affects us in different ways. We read the same things and it affects us in different ways.
You are not the single definer of reality, truth and logic. The only agreed upon truth of that video is the individual, the length, the format and the content. A woman posted a video in a defined format of a defined length with a defined content on social media.
Any opinions based on the contents are unique to the viewer.
"Your reality is not my reality..."
BTW, I never "quoted" Rollins. Paraphrasing -- look it up.

Oh, so you don't believe everything is subjective? I remember went off on some rant the other day about how everything was due to our interpretation.
I listed out clearly what was outside of that, "the contents of what is said" being one of them. It can be transcribed and agreed upon as a verifiable fact. Same with the identity of the person who said it it and the format/medium used to share what they said.
What the person meant by the content is the subjective part.

Really good points made here about the b.s. of the outrage culture that the left is largely responsible for.
Still blows my mind that Joe is the most popular podcaster in the world.
