Reason, sure. Ability? That’s something else. Most of us don’t have enough money to make the journey. I don’t know of many places that would even accept us as immigrants without a substantial monetary value/donation or work skill, plus the language skills we don’t have because schools don’t teach foreign languages well or at all.
Who would even have us all?
Yeah, my first thought was the cops, too. That’s usually when the authorities hush up.
The scary part isn’t the Islamaphobia. That’s just because it’s easy sound bites based on his name. The real scary part is how much they’re trying to attack him, because a democratic socialist mayor in New York can show how shitty Republican solutions have been on solving core problems like wealth inequality. Beyond what Bernie or AOC can do as an individual member of Congress. A mayor is an executive, and new York is big. If he’s not trying to line his pockets, he can do real damage to conservatives and establishment Democrats just by showing everyone there’s a better way.
Thanks for linking those. I can tell you that most people that know English as a first language have very little to no knowledge about the history between Poland and Ukraine. Like many things in the international world, it’s very complicated. But now I understand it a little better. I would agree that Poland is under no obligation to support a government that can’t seem to separate it’s independence from fascist leaders of the past, which does raise questions about the direction of the future. Yes, Ukraine needs to be free. They need an the help they can get. But what if they win, and fascism takes hold?
I mean, look at how the US is falling to fascism. People aren’t careful enough.
You’re the one that brought up “unexpectedly”. This is on you, buddy. You’re not arguing in good faith, so whatever next smarmy thing you say will be the last word. Enjoy.
An unexpected kiss is a far cry from unexpected genitalia. Are you trying to equate “sudden tacos” to “sudden penis” just because of the word sudden? Of course not. Cmon, use some common sense.
Also, this isn’t out of character for him based on the many stories he’s already had come out.
The context is “suddenly”.
Doesn’t sound anything like Aziz Ansari’s bad date that was overblown.
Maybe give us a quick synopsis? I live in neither country so I don’t know the nuances you’re referring to. Did Ukraine officially say something against Poland? Or a portion of Polish government? You’re pointing to a blog post and not a news outlet, so that’s a very niche source and not typically deemed credible in the US (where I live). If you have a link to like The Guardian, or something like that, I’d absolutely believe it.
That’s a noble goal, to stop teenage suicide. At least, stop suicide by guns. Pills, hanging, idk. It’s certainly something a teen would do out of immediate opportunity.
What I find weird is they can sign up at 18 to be in the military and kill hundreds in the name of oil companies. With guns. They’re obviously smart and reasonable enough to make the decision to end other people’s lives. We trust their judgement enough in Afghanistan, but not at home.
I don’t know that there’s a perfect solution. I just know that this seems inconsistent, and the government is happy with inconsistencies as long as they benefit.
He did likely make off with all of our previously government-only information, though. He’ll feed it through grok to try to catch up, and be shocked when Russia or whoever steals it.
So he’s got that going for him.
I could… tell when I made it to the bathroom. The sesame oil was not digested at all. I have eaten the same type of salad before and since.
Maybe it’s a unique thing to just me, but no, I’ll never try that again just to see. It was a horrible experience.
Pretty sure it was being raw that did it. I’ve cooked with it since and never had a problem. But when it goes on a salad, it’s typically just right out of the bottle… Never again.
Just as a heads up to anyone reading this… Don’t use sesame oil to make an oil and vinegar dressing. I did it once and shit my pants so bad I never wore khaki pants again. That stuff isn’t like Olive oil or anything else in your kitchen. It is Instant Bad Day in a bottle.
That doesn’t mesh with the expressed views of Democratic leaders like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.
What would you consider AOC? I would call her a progressive, but maybe the disconnect we’re having is over definitions more than anything else.
Well damn, that makes a lot of sense. And sounds fun. I would play it if I didn’t disagree with Ubisoft’s business practices so much.
I’m surprised that Yasuke was the source of the problem. They had a Netflix show about him a few years ago, and before that there was Afro-Samurai which I believe was also somewhat based off of him. I can’t imagine using the only black man in Japan at the time would lend itself to being stealthy (any race but Asian, specifically of Japanese decent, would have stood out back then), but I also haven’t played the game so I don’t know if stealth is even a mechanic in this franchise anymore.
I figured people would be mad about Ubisoft’s business practices and watering down of the AC franchise in general. That’s been a talking point for years.
That being said, this is the perfect response: take away the anonymity of keyboard warriors and get them to own their words. It’s a lot harder to be mean when it’s two people, face to face. The problem is, most people don’t have time to confront everyone online.
It’s amazing this was never fixed. In Korematsu v United States, a Japanese-American citizen didn’t report to Manzanar concentration camp and was imprisoned. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that it was legal to imprison citizens for national security reasons. That case still stands. And a similar executive order could be issued to do the same at any time, and Congress would be the only thing stopping it.
The order was based on the Alien Enemies and Sedition act of 1798, which was also already involved by Trump on this term.
I would love to be wrong, but I feel like more camps are in our future. CECOT is just the beginning.
Kind of like how COVID reset our expectations on everything. Bare shelves at Christmas might reset what we really need to buy.
Is that a real photo of his knuckles? I mean, the MS13 is clearly added on and likely a “decoded” read of the pot leaf, smiley face, cross, and skull tattoos that are clearly in the knuckles (very dubious on that symbolism) but are this even Kilmer’s actual knuckles? Or just a random photo of someone else?
Edit: yes, those are his knuckles as you can see pictures of him talking to that senator.
I strongly doubt, based on a quick search, that those are in any way related to a gang. They are evidence of drug culture (gasp!) but I’ve yet to see any evidence that any gang uses those.
Edit 2: it appears MS13 members literally just get tattoos that say “MS13” and don’t attempt to hide it. It’s a proof of loyalty thing, apparently.
They’re deporting us to concentration camps, not countries. They absolutely aren’t determining where you should go. Alligator Auschwitz, CECOT, the one they’re building in Guantanamo… It’s not a free ticket to another country and freedom. It’s a long road to death.
