July 16, 2018. That’s when Musk called that rescue work a pedophilia.
That’s when his antics couldn’t be hand waved as eccentric or trolling. The rumors that he was a shitty boss weren’t back up yet, he was still pro-LGBT and he had renewed public interest in space travel after the shuttles were retired.

I miss when moot ran it and it didn’t have “mainstream” interest boards.

- Comment on Dolores Umbridge was a JK Rowling Self Insert all this time. 5 days ago:
JK leans heavily into things “biological nature” or “Born Nature” as a reoccurring theme. Hagrid is inherently violent and Voldemort’s villain back story being he was a rape baby.

Don’t forget that the first version of the movie had a giant Star Of David in the middle of the floor of Gringotts. And yes, while that is a real bank with the Star Of David on the floor, maybe it would have been a good idea to not have it framed in shot if you’re already being accused of antisemitism.
- Comment on China has stopped exporting rare earths to everyone, not just the U.S., cutting off critical materials for tech, autos, aerospace, and defense 5 days ago:
China has been playing a long game with rare earth metals. You asked a specific question, the answer of wouldn’t really explain anything. I gave you a longer answer that gives a fuller picture.
Trump and company were fools to trigger China like this.
- Comment on China has stopped exporting rare earths to everyone, not just the U.S., cutting off critical materials for tech, autos, aerospace, and defense 5 days ago:
From 2011:
That’s because China now controls over 95% of the world’s supplies of rare earth metals, and has placed curbs on rare earth exports, creating a resource stranglehold. China slashed export quotas by 72% in the second half of last year, and imposed a further 35% cut in the first half of 2011 from the year-ago level. As a result prices for some rare earths have jumped more than 1,000%.

Im not going to debate this,
And yet, you still replied.
I’ve been seeing the US slide into fascism for the past 20 years. As long as I’ve been politically aware. Bush Jr set the stage of this problem and while none of the Democrats have been actively fascist, they also haven’t done anyway thing to reverse course either.
People aren’t rolling their eyes. They’re turning their head because they don’t want to face reality.

Take real reports and replace it with randomly generated people to flood the ICE systems with false reports.

No. The meaning has been true for a while. People just ignored the signs because it was inconvenient to stamp it out sooner.

Old car guys are still bitter over unleaded gas. Some will drive to airports to buy the leaded stuff.
- Comment on 4chan hacked and taken offline. Hacker reopens /qa/ and leaks all admins emails. 1 week ago:
Around then for me. Hiroyuki allowed /pol/ to happen when moot tried it and ditched it quickly. Too many people started thinking their farts didn’t stink. I went there for anime discussions when every other popular site was a hugbox.

The only thing I think when I hear someone else’s notification is, why the fuck is it so loud and why the fuck aren’t they silencing it?
- Comment on A funny thing about Americans and calendar dates 1 week ago:
I only deal with people from one country, but I always write out the month so there’s no confusion in important messages. Even including the day of the week as a type of verification.

- Comment on Balatro yet again subject to mods’ poor understanding of “gambling” 1 week ago:
The national government in Japan is a pile geriatrics who don’t want to do anything. Pretty much every prefecture(think state or provenance) raised the age of consent to 18 a long time ago.

I’m just referencing the movie, but if you think that there not racists in NYC, you haven’t talk to enough New Yorkers.
