Congressman-Elect Fred Wellman on Pete Hegseth terminating the promotions of women and minorities: "It's illegal. It's bigoted. It's homophobic. It's racist. I have no respect for Pete Hegseth."

it's genuinely unhinged. Just one big thought terminating cliche

Yet another affiliate agreement that I'm terminating (Humble). Someday I'll find that magical unicorn company that doesn't become shitty later. Right?

Fun posts are fun and all but at this point it’s becoming clear to me that the very concept of Glonzo is fast becoming ever more net negative, as it’s turned fully into a thought terminating shorthand.

there’s a book to be written just on the metaphor of left/right/center and its power as a thought-terminating cliché.
A centrist is somebody who believes the answer can always be found in the middle, no matter where the poles are set--not because of anything they believe in, but because they have learned that not believing in anything is the least costly posture for them to take.

Trump: “Not terminating the Filibuster…will go down as being one of the greatest mistakes in the Political History of America. So sad!!!

Anyway, good luck to our Republican Senators, work hard, and congratulations to John Thune for another year of leadership, Minority though it may be!”

I’m not above a thought terminating cliche
The title of my bill:

“Saying You Are The Biological Sex You Are Makes You The Biological Sex You Say You Are”

Describes exactly what the bill does and there will be no questions.

Hell, I'm old enough to remember "healthcare plz" and slowly realize it's all "thought-terminating clichés as politics."

"Hand Republicans a political victory" after they just got blown the fuck out in an actual election. Nice thought terminating cliche, you fucking cretins

You either die a funny shitpost or live long enough to become a thought terminating glonzo.

Total thought terminating cliche. A miserable word

Inside, the ceiling is a continuous concrete barrel vault, terminating in the east with a grand Romanesque arch and a small semi-circular apse. A few of the windows are filled with stained glass by Douglas Strachan.

call my dick a cliche the way it's terminating thots

I've run afoul of several of them lately (well, OK, strictly speaking they ran afoul of me 😼) and the answer seems to be "dank memes."

They're thinking 100% in 4chan memes, thought-terminating cliches, and repetitive sloganeering like "furry is not a gender."

So, yanno, the usual. 🤷‍♀️

Let's get one of the South Korean or Chinese companies in there to start making EVs. Enough diddling around with American automakers that aren't serious about building cars that can actually compete in a global marketplace.

Also, 'Have you ever picked up a hitch-hiker?' (without terminating their existence) is an interesting question.

"[That person] must be punished" is the most dangerous thought terminating cliché there is.

There's no consideration of context, or causation, or the effects of that punishment, or proportionality. It's easy to justify. It only ever leads to more suffering. And it makes us feel righteous.

Is that good

thought terminating fallacies all around

In many countries, men grow up with similar experiences. But they are in different cultures and political systems. It's 101 level feminist theory to look at each of these as its own expression and reinforcement of patriarchy. "it's men" is reductive and frankly thought terminating.

This is an incoherent thought terminating cliche. It’s ludicrous.

AI has a real talent for terminating thought on like

Every side of discussion

There's this thought-terminating cliche people use:

'As an anti-ai hardliner eventually someone is going to get you with something you don't recognize/they didn't disclose' with the implication that that makes you a hypocrite and your entire argument and hardline is now void

This is bullshit.
