House GOP May Try to Oust Matt Gaetz Using Ethics Report
This kind of blame shifting feels like when oil companies say it's all our individual duties to clean up the planet wide ecological disaster they made by us being good little recyclers. The police problem is a national one and a historical one that doesn't have to do with hiring "bad cops."
Maybe that's your point? Is this a whoosh moment and you're being sarcastic? I can't really fathom your reasoning otherwise.

Thank you for your service
That sucks. I wonder how many years of time we've all lost with our parents because these con-men. I listen to "Knowledge Fight" and Alex Jones has been crowing for months now how he's finally locked Joe in and got him to commit to the plan. The pride in his voice as he preens about duping Rogan makes me fell physically ill. Highly recommend "Knowledge fight" if you haven't checked it out!

Lol, hell yeah. I loved that movie so much. How like, it's just it's own universe, where the technology is just slightly different but then everything else was the same. It felt extra surreal and creepy because so much of the scenery looked like any place you could drive to in 20 minutes here. Found out after that it was largely filmed here and I think that really locked in how perfect it felt. Are you a big "Evil Dead" fan?
Get all the way fucked? Besides having a completely hypothetical conversation on my behalf, with me supposedly wishing violence on people (didn't, don't, but also fuck around and find out); you so completely fail to divine the reasoning to my words that its beyond laughable. He isn't a journalist. He's a propagandist. He isn't there to present the facts, he's there to produce a narrative.
He's a journalist in the same way James O'keefe is and FOX News has to be news/entertainment. A perfect example was how he was fired by PSU Vanguard prior to his shadowing patriot prayer during a premeditated assault or getting hit with a milkshake. From his Wikipedia page
the Vanguard's editor, Colleen Leary, fired Ngo and stated that he was dismissed because his summary of the Muslim student's remarks reflected a reckless oversimplification and violation of journalistic ethics, and was meant to incite a reaction.[1] She said that the dismissal was "not partisan".[1]
So yeah, in my opinion he doesn't deserve the same protections afforded to legitimate journalists. We can debate what journalist means in the internet age, but he ain't it. As to him getting hit with a milkshake, it was just a milkshake, and you reveal yourself when you felt the need to put that in quotations. Nobody shows up to a demonstration with quickcrete to mix into the nearest available milkshake. People just throw bottles, or rocks or bricks if they want to hit someone with something hard. If he was targeted for Christofascist affiliations, I'm not defending that violence, but that's also where fuck around and find out comes in. Also from his Wikipedia page:
He reported being punched and blasted with bear spray while filming two separate May Day events, including a brawl between left-wing activists and members of Patriot Prayer, outside the Cider Riot pub.[44] Bellingcat stated that Ngo's tweets framed the brawl as an unprovoked assault by anti-fascists.[45] Prior to the fight, Ngo was filmed standing in the presence of members of Patriot Prayer as they planned an attack on antifascists following the protests.[13][46] Ngo did not report on the actions of Patriot Prayer.[45] Five members of Patriot Prayer were charged with felony riot incitement for their actions on May Day 2019, including the group's leader Joey Gibson.[47]
Again, he's a propagandist that either got hit with a precision guided milkshake in a retribution shaking or more likely, randomly just got hit with a dessert like the clown he is. Violence begets violence, and approving or not this cycle will continue on until people more rational than us come to pass. You hold no benevolent middle ground here and instead of venting your misguided bullshit on internet people why don't you go pay someone to listen to this nonsensical garbage. Honk your red nose, get in that tiny clown car and fuck all the way off you brain rotted simp.
Johnny Harris did a "both sides" dive into Joe a month ago and I unsubbed after watching that garbage. He just kinda breezes over shit and ends up being like "he just intellectually curious." Fuck right off with that shit. I remember years ago when that jungle spice smoking thumb of a man had Andy Ngo on and a friend of mine was trying to defend him asking if its "ok for people to attack a journalist." The friend didn't really know the context outside of the vague framework they supplied, but we argued for like 20 minutes. Even after I showed him who Ngo really was and what he was all about, it seemed impossible to break the perception he'd been given that Ngo was a victim.
Rogan is a misinformation gateway that primes people for the bigger scam down the line, whilst washing it's hands of any responsibility. He disarms people with a "curious" persona and the majority of his content just being empty mental calories to be consumed. It's like a viral carrier that dulls peoples mental immunity against right wing propaganda by surrounding it in a 100 layers of DMT vision stories. Personally feel like it makes him one of the bigger dangers for people getting put into the pilled pipeline.

Hey, a fellow mitteneer! Congrats on the move and greetings from KBIN. As a mutual horror film enjoyer, do you like "It Follows"?

Digital Direct Democracy. You need to win a constitutional ballot initiative in one of the states that has that mechanism and find a way for courts in that state to approve the ballot language. The hiccup is the discrepancy of representatives vs delegates. You need to find a way to make it linguistically work under the federal constitutional framework, while removing the ability for politicians to vote against the will of the people. It would nuke the party system from the inside and could potentially spread to a dozen or so states that have the same system of constitutional ballot initiatives. If you can do it in enough large states it will begin to undermine the power monopoly that's put us into gridlock. It's also likely the least corruptible system possible and has the potential to create a streamlined and nimble government that's adapted to react faster in an uncertain future. It heavily relies on technology though, so creating robust redundancies will be challenging.
Living has gotta be tough when you know Ben Shapiro is updating your Wikifeet entry daily. Keep up the good work AOC. One day Ben will be gone and you'll be able to wear strappy shoes and sandals in peace once again.
Detroit: Tragedy at Binford Sex Tools show, when speaker Tim "Toolman" Taylor got stuck in one of the new XL Ejacu-Pumper models, whilst demonstrating features to the audience. Eyewitnesses say that while inserted into the machine, Taylor began to mimic riding a bucking bronco. During this animated outburst, Taylor lost his balance, falling backward, and accidentally pulling the refrigerator sized sex appliance down upon himself. In a scene that had played out countless times prior in his life, Taylor lost control of the unit, as it went into what a Binford representative called "overdrive mode."
According to an attendee, who wished to remain anonymous "I heard a noise that day that will haunt me for the rest of my years. I was across the expo hall, and amidst a low rumble of screams came a piercing cacophony of confused cries of pleasure and pain. I don't know quite how to explain it. It was like a wolf, gurgling, grunting and howling all at once. The noise went on for minutes, getting louder and more desperate sounding. When it stopped, I guess that's when his pelvis was crushed."
A public memorial service will be held at Ford field this coming Sunday, prior to the Lions game, with a private burial ceremony to be held later in the week.

From the article
Katyal is an MSNBC mainstay who came to prominence as a liberal defender of Republican president Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominees, all of whom will now rule on the case. In recent years, Katyal has helped Nestlé defend itself in a child slavery case before the Supreme Court and represented Johnson & Johnson in its bid to use bankruptcy to block lawsuits from cancer victims.
Modern society needs a way to deal with people who are cartoonishly evil. Maybe we should start trying to drop anvils on them or something...
Finally! The future I've been waiting a lifetime for has finally arrived :D
Didn't say that it was? If we're having a discussion on military spending, global policing, western powers military's and their combined lack of action, then the singular country accounting for 40% of all military spending worldwide (that's part of the west) deserves a bit more emphasis in my opinion. They're all failures, some failures just deserve more credit.
more facts please.
Also how do I redeem my Stroganoff Platinum Perks Points? I called the help line and it was just recipes and locations close to me that serve beef stroganoff. Are the points transferable? I have a friend now and might want to give them as a gift.
Got any illicit beef stoganoff facts?
I dunno, the majority don't really go around acting like world police in the first place, so it's not really a comparable thing? Also, it's not like we just have a "whoopsy" and do the wrong thing every so often. It's a big old shit layer cake all the way down with a non-awful icing on top named WWII. We can topple democratic governments so that banana prices stay low, but if there isn't an obvious benefit or a lobbyist throwing money at it, then it doesn't happen. No country should be acting in the way America does to begin with, but if we're doing it anyway, we may as well at least try to demonstrate some measure of compassion and altruism in providing defensive aid.
What we're really talking about (or should be) is the elimination of war in modern society and that was the goal of the League of Nations and it's successor the United Nations. That in of itself was intended as a way for countries large and small to maintain the peace and contribute troops to defensively stopping wars from happening. I'm gonna say we suck yet again though, as the US/West just couldn't get off that sweet war juice and dismantle it's military industrial complex. War is money to a lot of folk, so the "defense" industry can keep greasing the right palms to keep the machine moving. We do what we want, regardless of what the U.N. or I.C.C. dictate, and in not being able to be held to account, we nullify the validity and effectiveness of those institutions.
ACAB, especially the world ones.
From what I know, the roots of CSTO basically go back to the early 90's and a time where a collective guarantee of regional safety largely made sense after the fracture of the soviet states. There was a lot of hope for Russia back then, and at the time, it probably made a lot of sense 30 years ago. New Russia, not so much...
So I see what your saying but also fully understand why a country of under 3 million and a very sparse economy would take the deal to defend against a territory hungry dictatorial petro state. How about we nudge that 50/50 to a 70/30?
Florida Beavis is about to get kicked off spray tan island. Would absolutely love to see him backstab all his "friends" in his exit video from the banana boat. You can do it Matt!
