If you're being forgiven a debt, then you are in effect being paid by the person forgiving your debt.
If the bank forgives my mortgages, then they are effectively increasing my income my a nice chunk of change. That's a "paycheck" to me.
Being forgiven of a crime and let out of prison before time is served is like a "paycheck". You are getting paid with freedom.

You think "the left" created the protester industry?

I'm sure he only said this to make Republicans look bad:

NewsNation spoke with Adam Swart, the CEO of Crowds on Demand, about his company that provides services “for impactful advocacy campaigns, demonstrations, PR stunts, crowds for hire and corporate events,” according to its website.
He said his company receives requests for both conservative and liberal causes.

“We have been clear that we work with both liberals and conservatives on causes that align with common-sense values. Democrats are hiring our company, and so are Republicans,” he said.

Not the same as being paid.

That isn't the same as the professional protester industry.

How do we know antifa doesn't exist? They told us so.

Why isn't Rob praising Trumps Gaza peace deal? It is working to this point. Is Rob's hate that out of control?

Team Blue isn't impressed with this accomplishment. They were looking forward to campaigning on "Free Palestine."

If no money has been exchanged then nobody has been paid.

Interest is a made up thing to make money. If they "forgive" your mortgages then they have just agreed to accept less money from you. You are not being paid, you ARE paying less.

They can't pay you with something that is already yours. Freedom is not a commodity. We are not slaves Rob.

Yes.

Why would the right bother with a professional protester industry? They just don't protest enough for it to make sense.

So an XY can have a female body?
And an XX can have a male body?
What if the XX with a male body has a female brain?
What if the XY with a female body has a male brain?

What if the XX or the XY is born with both genitalia?
What if the XX or XY is born without genitalia?

I'm sure ThxOne or Jimi will chime in and fully explain the science to us. They both seem very knowledgable on it. Certainly more than doctors, medical scientists, physiology experts. psychologists.

Oh, and gender is a social construct, not an indicator of whether someone has a penis, ******, both, or neither.

By the way, now that I have a little more time, I took another look at what this "Science Teacher" wrote, and it shows just how obnoxiously stupid you people are. First off, he tries to compare human genes to insect and bird genes. That's F'ing stupid. That goes to show this person is just trying to reach for any reason for people to accept their opinion. Of course they are different. That is why they are a different species than we are.

Second, he admits that males have XY chromosomes and females have XX chromosomes. In extremely rare cases, the SRY gene will make some differences to throw off a XX and XY. So show me where any of these ***** people took the test to see if they have or don't the SRY gene. So you all want to throw out science now because it doesn't meet your argument that people can be whatever they want? You and this dipshit claim the SRY is the real determinator for what *** people are. Not at personal feeling. I can go on and on about how idiotic this person's comment is.

Either way, if physical features do not determine someone's gender, then why is a *** change necessary and celebrated?

Your lack of basic knowledge of finances is sad.

Interest is a made up thing to make money. If they "forgive" your mortgages then they have just agreed to accept less money from you. You are not being paid, you ARE paying less.

A "made up thing"?
So, paying a person for their time to do something, is a "made up thing"?

Spending less is the equivalent of getting paid more.
If your pizza boss provided a car, insurance, and gas, but kept your pay the same, it'd be the equivalent of paying you more.
If an employer keeps your pay the same, but starts matching your 401k contributions, it's the equivalent of paying you more.
Basic finances.
Something a 50-something man should know.

They can't pay you with something that is already yours. Freedom is not a commodity. We are not slaves Rob.

Au contraire.
By allowing you more free time, they absolutely ARE paying you with freedom.

Yes.

Well, the teacher is a she.
AND the teacher starts off talking about living createures, and then narrows it down to humans.
Try reading the whole thing before you think you're going to disprove it.

Show us where any of the ***** people DIDNT take the test.
Further, the fact that you readily admit something happens, no matter how rare, immediately discounts any option of "that's false".
You destroyed your own argument.

What is your degree in?

Either way, if physical features do not determine someone's gender, then why is a *** change necessary and celebrated?

Because then the body matches what the mind experiences.

If physical features do not determine a person, why do things like breast implants, nose jobs, hair transplants, skin grafts, minoxidil, skin peels, facelifts, prosthetic limbs, exist?

Maybe because people want their body to match what their minds sees as their body?

I have to explain that Simone concept to you, yet you think you know better than geneticists.
Amazing.

Not the same as being paid.

That isn't the same as the professional protester industry.

Actually, it is. The owner said so.

Collective narcissism prevents you from believing it, because the owner said Republicans do it too.

No the owner didn't say it's the same. He said he rents crowds to both sides. That is differnt from the professional protesting industry the left has created.

It's sad that common sense is hard for you.

A "made up thing"?
So, paying a person for their time to do something, is a "made up thing"?

Yes, interest is made up. Someone somewhere in time said sure, I will loan you this money but you will pay me this much for the convenience. Paying someone for their time to do something is not interest, it is just paying them. Are you slow or something?

Spending less is the equivalent of getting paid more.

Tell yourself whatever crap you want so you don't feel cheated or to feel like a winner. I couldn't care less.

If your pizza boss provided a car, insurance, and gas, but kept your pay the same, it'd be the equivalent of paying you more.

No. It just means I can spend the same money on other bills.

If an employer keeps your pay the same, but starts matching your 401k contributions, it's the equivalent of paying you more.
Basic finances.
Something a 50-something man should know.

It is discussed at the point of hire and is part of your wages. A child could figure that out.

Au contraire.
By allowing you more free time, they absolutely ARE paying you with freedom.

Incorrect. It's my freedom. They cannot pay me something that isn't theirs.

Typical liberal speak. Obfuscate, redefine and blur all the lines. Didn't you know any and everything is "being paid" - Always Right Rob said so.
