  • Most historians agree Jesus very likely was a real person. Possibly even an algamation of multiple people.

    However, doesn't make him the son of God or even a holy entity.

    Most likely he was a highly charismatic person who had a LOT of grievances with both the church and government, and his message turned into a political movement the Romans tried to quench ala Paul and the re-writings of the text at the time.

    We actually have a good chunk of knowledge on Pontius Pilate, who was a real person. A real person who would NEVER wash his hands of executing someone. He was a big fan of it.

    Part of the revision was to eject the Romans from the death of Jesus, and blame the Jewish people, in order to make the movement more palatable to the Roman people. Thus, the story of Pilate "washing his hands" of the matter because he thought Jesus was in fact, a righteous man.

    Jews didn't crucify people. They stoned them to death.

    Jesus had a lot of criticism of the Roman occupation and was killed by the Romans.

    Decades later when mythology started to surround this human, we see the revisions really kick into high gear

  • I have a theory on this.

    Drug dealers.

    With the stuff traveling across the country and the amount of wild shit that comes out of your mouth when you're high, I can imagine it spreading around due to pot distribution

  • The population is full of morons. This is how you steer them away from maga.

    We tried rational discussion and reasonable, educated debates

    This is how you get the turnips to turnip in a better direction

  • A vice president isn't going to publicly break with the sitting president

    Been saying this before the election. These comments are wild.

  • Which is what I disagreed with.

    That's what you're told it's supposed to do.

    That's actually not what it's there for.

  • I fail to understand where you drew the conclusion that I'm not doing any legwork

    Have a fun-tastic day, friend

  • Ah yes! Get idea! Just completely change the system! Why didn't WE think of that!

    Good show! I'll call everyone today and tell them that these protests are completely stupid and we have a better idea now

  • There are protests everywhere. The media isn't covering them.

  • The Democratic Republic of North Korea has entered the chat

  • I'm not saying that it would solve everything.

    But if you look at the areas of this country with higher turnout, you also see better social programs, ect

    We suck at doing our part because we're taught to not care.

  • Yeah, it isn't a single source at all. It's an algamation of all new sources so you can see the spin from all sides

    It's literally the opposite of a single news source

  • Can't tell if sarcastic or not.

    Yeah, Scientology is still quite powerful but they were exposed for a lot during that attack.

    Plus, this isn't the same group of people. Anonymous was never a set group of hackers or anything, it was a catch all name used back in the day to keep anonymity, and then later on a bunch of edgy dorks decided to pretend they were an actual organization

  • Exactly. We've never actually used our voting privileges. Not really.

    Whenever I hear the argument that voting doesn't do anything, I cringe.

    When people show up (not just for presidential elections), shit gets done.

    But Muricans are lazy and expect others to do the work for them

  • Looks like a clone of Battlezone, which predates this by quite a lot

  • Don't you know? It's 1000% the Dems fault that so many people decided to stay home.

    I loath the Dems but not nearly as much as the people who sat on their asses and let Trump waltz back into power, whether it be by using their vote to go third party as a weak protest, or by staying at home altogether.

    This was a failure of MANY different groups of people.

    "If you have a population of selfish, ignorant citizens, you're gonna get selfish, ignorant leaders"

  • It wasn't the singular reason she lost.

    There were many.

    But it IS a factor, an ugly one but one people seriously need to come to terms with.

    But apparently I hate AOC for pointing this out
