Murdering people and stealing their land is way older than Jews, Abraham’s God, or the Old Testament. The reasons are always the same, why do we focus on the justifications?

The difference between Manifest Destiny and Zionism is academic; I don’t need to know how a monster thinks of it’self.

Every time I see the Governor, I’m reminded of that Lion King song: Oh I just can’t wait to be king!

People will say it’s him or Hitler, because it takes that kind of relief to make Newsom acceptable to a progressive. So I’m just going to say now: I’m not voting for him. Don’t start lecturing me about vulnerable people because Newsom already threw trans people under the bus. He also actively hates homeless people. And being inhuman to migrants is more Californian than Hollywood.

If “saving America” means voting for Sheriff James Davis over Adolf Hitler, then you have to wonder, is she worth saving?

Just a reminder that the raid on Waco was about more than modified and stockpiled guns, but it was also about David Koresh raping little girls. So as bad as the three letter apes are, still better than pedos.

Also, I just want to point out how impotent all those guns were when it came time to oppose the government. Some of you 2nd-brained people should study that.

You can’t pump gas out of an oil well. It has to be transported, refined, transported again, then burned. The price can fluctuate wildly in that time.

the 20% is the estimated reality now. the 60% is what the market is betting the real price will be.

What econ101 does to your brain is not normal. Into to Econ has y’all seeing a sinking ship and the first thing to ask is “how much is this life jacket worth in dollars”?

Ancestry is weird. You’ve got 2 parents, 4 grandparents and so on. Do the math and you’ll have a billion ancestors in like 40 generations. Obviously, we can’t all have a billion unique ancestors, so mathematically there must be plenty of people in my family tree that are also in yours. No matter the geographic spread or race nonsense.

However it’s also true that you’ve got 50% of your parents DNA, ~25% grandparents and so on. Which means eventually, you’ll have an ancestor that you share no genetic markers with. It’s usually about generation 12 where this happens.

So it’s true that we’re all related and it’s also true that your not related to your 12^th great grandfather.

My favorite is a pamphlet printed and distributed by Sam Adams warning the white colonists of the King’s secret plan to make them slaves.

I like this one because it reminds me that conspiratorial “thinking” in American politics is not a new phenomena.

Humanoid robots are as dumb as a bag of hammers. It’s like when the first automobiles looked like carriages because that’s what everyone was used to.

The only practical reason to make a robot look like a person is so you can fuck it. That’s it. Every other task can be performed better by removing human limitations and complexity.

So now Ubuntu is the OS where “advanced users can just turn all that crap off”.

No, no, we should deffenatly punish some of them.

You’re right. Linux has always struggled to compete with hypothetical versions of Windows that aren’t available. But you see, for testing purposes, we’re forced to use the Windows version from this timeline.

I put the hook from “Freddie the Freeloader” as my ringtone on a flip phone back in like 2010. Even though I love that song, associating it with someone calling ruined it for me, and I still wince a little when I hear it.

To the gun-brained “progressives”: have you ever noticed that the elites, owners, and conservatives all promote and encourage gun ownership? Why do you suppose that is?

It’s bad enough that all the rednecks think their hobby makes them Daniel Boon without fools on the left thinking a fetish object can turn them into Fred Hampton. You’re just a volunteer gun salesman, congratulations. The NRA loves you.

It’s not just hot/ prepared foods. Had a relative who worked in a grocery store and there is like a whole list of what you’re allowed and not allowed to buy. Maybe people who know more can fill in the details, all I remember is that you had to buy 2% milk or skim; no whole milk for poor kids. ridiculous.

If conspiracy people were vulnerable to reason, they’d cease to exist.

Small reactors, like ones to power a neighborhood or a single factory are being developed and built right now. Some of these reactor designs cannot melt down and nuclear waste is solved problem, even with the absurd politics.

Black people of wealth maintain that wealth by exploiting labor.

A dirty bomb wouldn’t “work”. As in it wouldn’t cause any more damage or fatalities than the explosives would on their own. You’d have to hang out at ground zero for a while to get radiation dosages that are dangerous, and other than having to clean the effective area like a super-fund site, the explosives are still the dangerous bit.

The Chernobyl disaster was similar to a dirty bomb, and no terrorist could hope in their wildest dreams to get that much nuclear material. But even with the scale of nuclear release, and gross mismanagement of the event, today the site is contained and safe to visit.

Nuclear is just scary, that’s it. I’ve often wondered if the whole idea of a dirty bomb was to get the terrorists to waste any nuke material they found.

No, it’s like college football: when you get a new country you have to choose a rival. If you don’t, then it defaults to France.

Some people need concrete examples because they can’t work things out in the abstract. So it’s a good thing this is in the NYT, so plenty of conservatives will see it.
