Sounds about white.

And this children, is an exhibit of the classic dog whistle One that has existed and will exist for decades and in multiple countries or smaller clusters. It is a classic because it is always applicable and vague enough for the listener to assign their own meaning and intensity.

"Illegal" immigrants is the code for "too many" immigrants. I'm sure they genuinely believe they are illegal and harmful. And don't give two fucking shots that illegal immigrants are more likely to be victims of sex trafficking but we don't have a sleek white Christian CIA agent saving those babies on American soil.

A striking number of voters agree with this description of immigrants who enter the U.S. illegally, and among Republicans, associating the remarks with Trump himself makes them even likelier to agree.

1. They assume ALL brown people are immigrants AND illegal
2. That second part is just more cult shit in the alt right cult barrel

Not 10 frameworks (each used for one function), dozens of mb of graphics,

Have you seen the old internet?! It would have been even more gifs, music players, and oh the flash websites! Haha I know that's really not your point but this jumped out at me and made me chuckle.

This is true.

What I also gathered from the article (for further context) is that these are the same lawyers who tried to the other 2 cases of piracy on reddit. This time the argument is that it is not a violation of the first amendment right because they want the data to go after the ISP

In your opinion do you think it ended in a satisfying way knowing it was canceled?

Oh my gosh I love the name too!

Okay cool, I hope you get more answers and opinions than just mine then!

It's just new slang like mfw, few, fml, catfish, dm, etc It's helpful to have a sort of common language over so many cultures by all sharing internet culture. When you see something like 'okay, but also' you know that likelu even is the point, that there is something they wanna put out there that they know wouldn't have a normal opportunity to and it's being playful about it not taking themselves seriously.

Oh wait was that a rhetorical question?

PREACH IT SIS!

This is what happens when people take ACAB to the literal extreme

No he is not. You are thinking of Eugene Goodman.

Harry Dunn had physical altercations with rioters. He testified for the Jan 6 committee and he wrote a book called standing my ground. (Source:wiki, all articles rn are about him running)

I love these stories! I love that he stuck around long enough to turn it around haha, I hope your party gets to drink for free after all that bs

Let me put it this way, When there was a shortage on that important computer chip that all cars need now days, cars were more expensive. So dealerships tried to inflate the price even more and push terrible financial choices. One straight up said "we can charge whatever we want" when I pointed out the multi-thousand difference from the same brand new vehicle online.

I think it is more like what you say is technically true, but human nature and greed leads to it happening to a more artificial degree, and at an accelerated rate. And the thing is, prices don't really go back down unless it was something where the price fluctuated anyway such as produce and oil.

I'm pushing 40 and I have seen all in the family episodes and recognize the theme song! I was too young to get any context though now I want to watch it!

Boomers suck yadda yadda but the silent generation was also a big voting block! And also raised those assholes. Sorry, tangent.

Eggs are also generally a very economical source of protein, usually.

And now it's so far gone that doing the bare minimum for the environment is great for their image so let's dump more money into advertising that than actually making a meaningful change.

It's a local news site that just states the facts. California citizens already are aware they pay for it at the counter.

Nothing about this is sensationalized

Not if it costs more to develop, install, and maintain a refill system. Much more likely they would just raise the price to the consumer anyway.

Thanks I didn't know that!
