I go from Three musketeer to wizard of the Court in about 1 month. Generally I just prefer not to cut my hair, but it will reach full length in about 1 year and then just stop growing any longer.

These guys seem like they also chose this hairstyle because it’s just less work and you spend less time being uncomfortable.

Constantly shaving all the time sucks.

By “look like Jesus” do you mean they are white guys with long hair and facial hair?

I think you might underestimate how easy it is to grow your hair out and stop shaving and instantly become a Jesus look-alike. No effort needed.

Also, these two dudes look extremely different from each other and obviously they look nothing like Jesus who was a 5 and 1/2 ft tall brown skinned Semite.

An app has been shut down on the unsubstantiated claims that it was a tool of foreign influence but on the apparent reasoning that it was facilitating conversations that western social media is hostile to such as the Israeli extermination of Palestinians.

Palestine and Gaza were specifically cited by congresspeople as an inspiration and justification for the ban. It is plainly censorship. That’s not really debatable.

Whether or not you believe that the censorship was reasonable or if there is sufficient evidence of subversive foreign influence using the platform is possibly debatable, but the fact that it is censorship is not.

Meanwhile there is tons of evidence that IDF soldiers are raping and sexually abusing prisoners. I’m sure Israel will get right on that…

If Israel has evidence they should really go ahead and present it.

Kind of ironic that a nation with forced conscription doesn’t end up having any civilians over the age of 18 because it turns them all into combatants.

I think that’s actually part of the Gambit. By smearing everybody in shit they more or less compel everyone to have to defend the state to protect themselves from the consequences of things they did when they were young and easily manipulated into becoming monsters.

It doesn’t mean they’re not monsters, it just means that a lot of innocent children got turned into monsters who are no longer innocent or children.

There is no rank higher than your humanity and you have an obligation to submit to it. These soldiers should have known before they turned 18 not to kill children and that bulldozers attacking houses is wrong. They should have known better and possibly many of them did. I hope every polite nation arrests these people and sends them to the Hague.

I wish them all the worst.

Even if it’s just a competing team of oligarchs fighting over who can produce the most amount of animosity and mistrust of the other, they’re going to accidentally stumble across some shit that the other one doesn’t want you to see and then they’ll show it to you.

It turns out we don’t have any way of getting clean unbiased sources so the best we can do is just have a lot of different ones with different biases since there is no such thing as clean public media anymore.

Accountability for official corruption in a world that thought that rich and powerful people were above the law.

No but some of them beat the police officer to death with a fire hydrant. The entire thing was completely fucking insane.

It’s far more well resourced, focused, managed, and targeted. A state sponsored gang is always going to be much scarier than one that emerges on its own funded only by the revenue of its actions.

Did someone suggest we do that?

Is someone here in this thread suggesting that we should force the entire country further to the right and allow a dictator to return to power?

Did you maybe mean to reply to somebody else?

The solution to America’s problems won’t materialize if we magically criticize Donald Trump and the Republicans hard enough. There’s no magic words we’re going to say that are going to change those people. Instead, I would suggest that conversations about criticism of the opposition be separated from conversations about criticism of ‘our team’.

The Republicans aren’t to blame for the faults in Democrats, and the Democrats are not to blame for the faults in Republicans. The major political parties have plenty of faults and some of those faults they have in common, but they are distinctly different in a number of important ways.

The Republican party can’t help America improve. It’s not just that the system is rigged against the little guy it’s that Republicans don’t want to help the little guy. They want to squeeze him harder. The cruelty is the point.

The Democratic party can’t help America improve. The system is rigged against the little guy, but literally anybody who wants to try and help the little guy has to come here to this party to make that attempt because the party is at least hospitable to the concept.

The stumbling block of the left is not Donald Trump. He’s a symptom of our problem. Our problem is people like Nancy Pelosi and Diane Feinstein who are pathologically incapable of cooperating with anyone to the left of Reagan.

You don’t get Donald Trump if you promote Bernie. You don’t get Donald Trump if you have real primaries, let the people pick the candidates, and create a pipeline to put rising Stars into leadership positions.

I’m really worried that the deadweight at the top of the party is literally willing to sacrifice democracy to fascists rather than give one inch to progressives.

No response to "Democrats ran a shit candidate who didn’t even mention healthcare or taxing the rich, and never won a primary " involves the words ‘Trump’, ‘putin’, ‘nazi’, or ‘republicans’.

Donald Trump isn’t the problem. The problem isnt that donald trump is so attractive or that the voters are so stupid. That’s like blaming fire for drawing an audience or being mad that ice is slippery.

The problem is that Democrats don’t want to win if it means a progressive agenda. The function of the Democratic party is to mollify progressives and help ratchet us to the right by providing a fig leaf for the same owner class that does almost all the donating to politics and is literally driving the legislative and judicial agenda of the GOP.

This God fella and his pharaoh lacky need to be deposed it seems.

They are clearly unqualified for the important job of being in charge.

It’s like one third as much CO2 as a single container ship on the low end of container ship emissions and comparable to Facebook if you only count Facebook and not the metaverse, Instagram, Whatsapp or anything else Facebook owns and only if you believe the numbers published by Facebook.

The critical hit captured live on national television looked like a cutscene from a new fallout game.

Zucks passing dominates the new cycle for almost 10 minutes before the enthusiasm about a new fallout game completely overshadows him.

A few years later no one’s ever heard the name Zuckerberg outside of memes about that one oligarch who got melted by the space aliens shortly after first contact.

It turns out he’s the reason they came here, "You can’t let those things get established on your planet, clearly your people didn’t notice but that wasn’t a human. That creature was a mimic and it would have consumed you all if you let it. We’re going to station a few folks here in case another one shows up… and you got to clean this place up it’s a mess down here. "

Seems more like a live by the sword die by the sword kind of thing. Luigi absolutely should be arrested. Luigi should absolutely be prosecuted. A jury of his peers should absolutely give them a Westworld verdict, “doesn’t look like anything to me”.

I think that would send a powerful message that the rank and file American public is willing to guillotine a few CEOs if that’s what it takes to fix this problem.

I don’t care if his job was legal. I don’t care if The law is on his side. I just don’t care. The law allows people to deny care using an unthinking machine that can’t be held responsible all in the pursuit of keeping the money that was paid to the company to provide that care.

Nope, I’m sorry. If you want a recipe for how to be unpersoned, there you go. If we don’t call what soldiers do on the battlefield murder I’m going to have a tough time calling this murder.

If using violence to create fear to affect political change makes someone a terrorist, and we wish to apply that definition here, then there must first be examples made of the authority that wishes to impose such judgment. Authority without competence and oversight is just tyranny. The British called the minutemen barbarians, The United States calls its secret police undercover officers or plain clothes detectives. Word games like this start to fall apart when they face any serious scrutiny.

Either that definition of terrorism is overly broad and would include everything from the police in the United States to our “shock and awe” campaigns abroad. Either that or the difference is not that he “used violence to create fear to affect political change” but that his violence did not come as the official order of a government that is allowed to use violence to create fear to affect political change.

If they try this guy like a terrorist then the country should rightfully riot. The appropriate response would be rebellion on a grand scale.

I hope people take to generally withholding human decency from these executives.

This can be an addition to whatever other more invasive measures people might have planned.

Examples:

Instead of holding the door for one of them when you walk through, push the door back into their face and hold it there for a few seconds, Make eye contact like you’re looking at an unruly teenager literally covered in shit. It’s not illegal it’s just rude and upsetting.

Don’t put any condiments or napkins or anything like that into their to-go containers. If possible omit any packaging at all. Make them request each specific plastic fork and napkin, do your best to soil all of it.

If you recognize one of them in public, point and yell, “This person works for a death panel and helps ensure Americans die prematurely.”

Don’t refer to the most HMO CEOs or healthcare CEOs, just call them death panelists, or death panel CEO.

Of course I would never discourage violence against purveyors of human misery, but if you’re too explicitly willing to fight back in the ongoing class war you will be de-platformed and treated as if you are an actual terrorist.

If, on the other hand, you wanted to say that Brian Thompson should have gone on living and been allowed to kill as many people as the law would let him then you’re perfectly okay and standing on solid ground.

Using AI driven software is willful negligence. Software can’t take responsibility so the human operating it needs to take responsibility for the consequences of it. They took down the entire thing they need to face consequences. The hosting provider should also face consequences for overly broad responses to take down requests.
