Oh no, this is McCarthyism with Stalinist characteristics. You name 3 collaborators, and then they take you into the back room and shoot you anyway.

Yeah, this was “started” by fucking HUAC. They’ve just figured out how to shift the narrative crosshairs.

Can’t look too Old, because then your audience might not take you seriously. Mid-20s at BEST, unless you can look Old And Erudite, in which case you might be able to pull off mid-40s.

This is actually why a lot of public schools are so poorly funded now. Back in the civil rights era, white families who could afford it sent their kids to private schools after desegregation, where their schools could still be segregated (because they didn’t receive federal funds). The white people who couldn’t send their kids off to private or religious schools decided that “if we have to share space with black folk, we’ll just drag our formerly-white schools down to the level that black schools were at”. Cue a generation or two growing up with poorly-funded schools and it turns rapidly into a tradition - “we’ve always had low taxes from the school district, why do we need to increase it half a mill”.

Yeah, they keep redefining it every few years so they can say “oh it’s race realism” or identifying trends or whatever rather than “I’m one step shy of my grandpappy who canvassed for George Lincoln Rockwell”.

At least a full 2/3 of the people that were supposed to be there when it was shut down a couple months ago (before it reopened) can’t be accounted for.

Yeah.

Pretty much why I’m anti-death-penalty in all cases. The state shouldn’t be allowed to deal death as a punishment, because there’s too much at stake. You can’t un-kill someone if you get things wrong, and prosecutors have a vested interest in, at the very least, not being wrong. Being right doesn’t matter, but being wrong can cost you your position or your credibility within the legal field. Killing the defendant wraps things up nicely because a corpse can’t defend itself, and it can’t say “I wasn’t there” or “I had nothing to do with this”, it can’t plead its own innocence - so you can put whatever words you like into their mouths and it plays perfectly with a jury.

Basically they’re terrified that this might open doors. That’s almost always what it is. They’re scared that someone might start asking questions about OTHER cases and saying “hey, what if those were wrongfully decided as well?”. A lot of states love executing people who are problematic - poor people, people of color, mentally disabled people - because it’s easier for police to pin literally whatever on them in order to clear up a backlog or to make themselves look competent.

The Earth is too cold for them because these demons are used to living in Hell.

An infantry officer who was only part of the National Guard, at that.

Why would they bother with the license if the ICE facial app scan said she was an immigrant? I thought it was absolute and infallible…

They’d simply go to war with Germany if they tried to kick out the soldiers, I fear. The US military is the proverbial 800-lb gorilla, and like the joke goes, it will sit wherever it damn well pleases under Trump.

What are you gonna do, tell the most powerful land and air and sea military on Earth “hey, you need to not be here”? What are you gonna do if they say “no”? Sure, you can declare war on them (because that WOULD constitute an invasion). Then what?

Yeah, early antifascists kinda sucked too. It didn’t help that the leader of the SA was openly gay, so a lot of antifascists latched onto that as an attack and a rallying cry.

And now local DCPD are gonna be partnered up with NG soldiers everywhere, so now every arrest has a chance to turn into a summary execution.

People are gored by bison at Yellowstone every year. When I visited a few years ago, the rangers were actively having to tell people to avoid an elk who, with his harem, had decided to hang out in Fort Yellowstone for a couple days. People are dumb, or don’t think “wow that’s a 600+ lb animal the size of a minivan”.

Then he can keep doing it even if the court blocks it because “defies court order” is the most common phrase proceeding “Trump DOJ”.

Oh, you mean all the people who immigrated here after Trump let the Taliban take over Afghanistan?

There’s also the Gilboa DBR AR15.

Add a lanyard and a polo shirt with a logo and you’re effectively invisible.

Literally what this ‘peace deal’ is. “Hey, let us keep the land so we can continue to conscript all these Ukrainian men and boys, and give us like a year to rebuild our military out of whatever scraps we have lying around. Also you guys only get like 1/4 of your current guys because it’s unfair, and you can’t call your friends for help next round.”
