So?
And?
Mmmm... actually, no... we weren't. Not really.
It's not like YOU ever changed the conditions of the discussion.
LOL
Wow. You really ARE fucked in the head. YOU went from ME saying, in essence with the image of a "heavy" airliner never being
electric, to YOU bringing up Joby, then mileage, then glide ratios, etc.
You are the gay King of changing the topic
The difference, faggot rich kid... is, *I* try to stay on topic, and YOU changing the topic when you start losing, like in this
case.

You had absolutely NOTHING to say about this, but for reasons I'll get into in a sec... YOU wanted to "counter" me with the Joby
bullshit we discussed, ad nauseum, before and well... now.
WHY did you think you could "counter" me with the Joby bullshit?
Because you have a NEED to show everyone else how much you know about EVERYTHING.
I post a sarcastic image of an airliner that will never exist, unless it IS attached to wires. LOL
And you go completely off the rails and talk about Joby, as if that had ANYTHING to do with COMMERCIAL AIRLINERS the size of an
A333E.
Nope.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
