- Comment on So is Israel just going to finish Palestine off? 4 days ago:
and thus you justified the 14 words.
“We must secure the existence of our people and a future for Jewish children”
we must slaughter Palestinians, because only then can we be safe!
- Comment on So is Israel just going to finish Palestine off? 4 days ago:
To be fair, how many secular leaders can you assassinate before they stop?
- Comment on Texas power prices briefly soar 1,600% as a spring heat wave is expected to drive record demand for energy 5 weeks ago:
why would you think that any of this effects prices?

I think you’ll find that there are a lot of crazy reasons for the police doing something,

do I have to go into the levels of fucked your comment still leave the US at? most of the first world has not just stopped school corporal punishment, no it’s just straight up illegal to beat your child as punishment.
If a parent here gave consent to corporal punishment, with a paddle no less, they would soon see their child in foster care and themselves in front of a judge.
- Comment on Funny, those guys don't usually agree on that much 1 month ago:
see, the difference is, in the US they already won, tho in the American context liberal s still more progressive than the neo-cons/fascists on the other side
- Comment on Funny, those guys don't usually agree on that much 1 month ago:
that’s because liberalism in Europe is mainly “liberty” for rish people to do what they want

look, tankies aren’t leftists, they are fascists wearing the skin of the lefties they killed
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
yup, “white” is a completely artificial concept that originated in America (as in the continent) as part of the slave trade justification.
not even the Nazis had this “white” concept, in fact European racism is not along the lines of skin color
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
no, but for a long time Irish, Italians, Germans etc… weren’t white, until they needed to increase the size of “whites” because there weren’t enough WASPS to outnumber POC
- Comment on First human brain implant malfunctioned, Neuralink says 1 month ago:
ya, nothing was learned in the “Tuskegee Syphilis Study”(see racist torture), Vaccines also didn’t one about because we just started injecting people with random shit, and we knew of Anesthesia for a long time, it just wasn’t seen as something you use in medicine in more recent history because of religious superstitions in medicine.
again, Myths, just like the idea that we learned anything from Mengele’s horrors
- Comment on First human brain implant malfunctioned, Neuralink says 1 month ago:
it’s not really that fascinating, of course the cheap and easy answer is a derivative of “beat it until it behaves”, a large part of the states still have the paddles in school
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
oh ya, i forgot, for some reason we keep adding new groups to “white” to keep a majority in anything
- Comment on First human brain implant malfunctioned, Neuralink says 1 month ago:
no, not really, that’s just a commonly believed myth
- Comment on First human brain implant malfunctioned, Neuralink says 1 month ago:
oh, ABA, you mean the “therapy” that for some reason causes a suicide rate of over 70%?
tho an “ABA tech” is cheaper than an actual medical professional since they just need a few weeks of training instead of several years
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
doesn’t need internsate criminal conduct, for example when a Mississippi sheriff killed his mistress after she got pregnant and the rest of the local police didn’t want to interfere the FBI showed up and arrested said sheriff
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
because this has nothing to do with concentration camps, and everything to do with the American government and government related massacres in America?
I mean, if you want to bring concentration camps into this, we can start talking about why a majority of the American prison population is black and are used as life long slave labor.

not the silicone valley “keep breaking stuff until it works”
- Comment on First human brain implant malfunctioned, Neuralink says 1 month ago:
so, hate to break it to you, but we in fact don’t take that attitude with medical research, anything that had a tendency to kill the pre human control groups generally doesn’t keep going, Musk can do this because he is a high profile case, ironically it’s how he slips regulations all the time, because there would be backlash from the musk sycophants, but also the general wealthy community who use people like musk as a barometer on how much corruption they can get away with
- Comment on Western media launders israeli lies to manufacture more consent for Genocide 1 month ago:
the NYT, the same ones who urged America to bomb multiple countries “even if it’s illegal”, don’t say it’s so!
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 1 month ago:
Pretending men and their societies aren’t a unique problem is misogyny.
here’s a shocker for you, women are part of society as a whole, and no misogyny isn’t a unique problem, it mirrors the same issues that are ever present in racism, ableism, poverty etc…
you REALLY need to brush up on your intersectional theory
PS: if your reference to “men’s societies” was to the idea that men somehow control society, then may I redirect your attention to “rich people” (who do actually control society)
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 1 month ago:
no, true crime definitely plays into this, because the question is not asking “what is safer”, but “what feels safer”, and while it’s not inherently wrong for anyone to mistrust random people, especially women in decently large parts of society, this is a feeling question, and like it or not, but Society does consist of the stories we tell ourselves and others, and while we still have a long way to go, you can not argue that women are less safe now than during the 50s - 60s - 70s - 80s, yet the perception of many people is that it has scarcely ever been more dangerous, and that also has a reason.
- Comment on Mean world syndrome has reacted a fever pitch. 1 month ago:
Society is made of the stories we tell ourselves.
this is so true, any the reason I am a good DM
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
again, just because it’s a different company doesn’t change the power structures that enable them, we aren’t talking about corporate structures here (also Securitas does unironically union bust for large companies like Amazon).
as for the “They didn’t intimidate the guy”, you don’t do that by threatening legal actions and the costs involved bankrupting a person.
The guy obtained unreleased cards (ie stolen) “from an acquaintance” and then refused all attempts to contact him by WotC.
That is complete head cannon on your end, as WotC tried calling twice with a suppressed phone ID and then sent the agent directly.
Do you think WotC should have sent police to his door?
you know, we have this magic thing in the civilized world called “proper legal action”, if they had a case they would have just sent a legal notice, inform the police, and the police only come get you if you ignore the court, but they didn’t do that, you know why? because no lawyer worth his salt would have signed off on this
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
they don’t you say? so none of them involved Government force, and not for the better?
but let’s be honest, Tulsa just had mainly black victims and was supported by the government (this is fine)
Blair Mountain just had mainly socialists as victims and was supported by the government (this is also fine)
but Waco, those were upstanding whites who refused the tyrannical mandate of the government (real victims)

I mean people are surprised that autistic people dislike autism speaks
- Comment on First human brain implant malfunctioned, Neuralink says 1 month ago:
damn, imagine we did any other medical research with that attitude!
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
no, it’s that the same power structures have persisted and are still doing the same shit under a different mantle, even if it’s technically a Swedish company now (hit those people from Blair Mountain are long since retired, yet the organization is still doing similar things).
PS: “literally ask to” is a funny way of saying intimidate, the reason they refused to involve proper authorities was that legally speaking they had no case
- Comment on May 13, 1985 1 month ago:
FBI, the FBI polices police, but the government made Police basically immune to most prosecution
