There's going to be a lot more of this. If you deport Mom and or Dad, young children will often be forced to go.

They're still citizens though right? Sooner or later the regime is going to start stripping citizenship. Will/Can the courts hold up the 14^th?

Yes, and it was "bleeding heart" before that.

The reason this insult has such staying power is because it's apt. Reactionaries are correct when they say liberals by in large don't really care about minorities or the disadvantaged, they just use them for political power.

The mistake is in thinking that liberals represent the left.

IDK, a zipper is pretty dangerous when I'm steering it, never mind full self driving.

Circumcision is not a Christian practice.

It's popular in America because some 19^th Century RFK jr style health freaks convinced everybody that masturbation caused disease.

Pfffftttt. the real trick is to put ice cubes in your underarms for a few minutes before they checked your temp.

The US is behind in this tech because we didn't think we needed it. I wonder what changed the Pentagon's mind? Perhaps they've been impressed by what Russia has done in Ukraine.

I found this game to be pretty mediocre overall.

The early-game motorcycle is not good. A big part of the game is upgrading your bike, and this is fine, but early game you've got a motorcycle that can't outrun a dog, skids like you're on black ice, and needs a fill up every three minutes. By the end of the game that bike is a joy to ride, but it's weird to make a first impression like that.

The combat mechanics are good, but there's the weird progression thing again where early weapons are stupidly bad. A single shot form an M4 was way more powerful than from an M14. If you're like me, that's annoying.

The zombies are what they get right. They're fast and scary and they will destroy you. The hordes are challenging sandboxes of destruction that these developers nailed.

The problem with Maher isn't that he's changed. It's that he hasn't. Maybe he was a progressive in 1976. But he hasn't progressed since then.

What was his show in the 90s? Politically Incorrect. Remember that 'politically correct' is what they used to call woke.

And all that stuff about Islamophobia and Western Chauvinism is just another trend among the reactionary intellectuals. Bill has always been an op.

unless suicide counts as violence

What? Of course it does. Overcoming a bodies' will to life is an inherently violent act. No amount of consent or dignity will change that. And the Scandinavian escape pods are hardly the norm. Both people I know ate pistols.

This is not a victory. America can only be defeated by sending home body bags, not bills.

Do they really think they can exhaust our will to spend money on weapons?

When people are loosing their basic civil rights, I'm not going to guzzle tears because some judicial pig didn't get the special treatment she was owed according to her station.

Your comment is so important because billions of people around the world are starting to think of Xi as the leader of a more stable, more rational, more equitable global order.

Xi couldn't have purchased this any treasury or captured it with any army.

The problem with the MAGA/Nazi comparison is not that MAGA isn't as evil, it's that they're less competent.

You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.

they end up encarcerated in subhuman conditions

If that's the standard we can't detain them in the US either.

If you're going to get pedantic about political terminology, you're going to have a bad time. Just look at what a slut the word "liberal" is.

Even if this is true, all it represents is continued demand for the American arms industry. Which frankly could use the work these days.
