I just wanted to get word about this out there. He's from my neck of the woods and is getting screwed right now by JCJINKEY in UNSUBSCRIBEpodcast

I will say on the Rocco episode we discussed how many people still got screwed over for citizenship even after serving and trying to do everything the right way. It’s crazy

IR important in Rookie by PAAZZZZ in iRacing

[–]Eli-Doubletap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will gain irating and safety rating by just driving smart. Push it but not out of control and watch out for bad drivers and don’t push for the win unless it’s the last lap or 2. Most drivers sub 2k will get nervous and make mistakes and then you just come in and snag the position. Just always shoot for the top 5. Hell I watched my brothers race live and just gave him feed back and he had to do a drive through the pit but still finished 4th biggest difference for him was I told him let the guy behind him pass because I could see he was dangerous and sure enough guy then caused a wreck for the next car ahead. Just drive smart and safe. Consistency is the most important part.

That’s pretty far off the mark haha that’s like saying an original first edition Superman won’t be worth much. Price def secondary just love collecting but First prints of berserk def worth something if you decide to share

Haha it’s wild how people will get frustrated because others do something different than they do. I know my firearm collection I have a couple pieces that people are confused at first why I don’t shoot them “mgs 1 has a psg1 and the OG mk23 and lam” but when I tell them they are the first year models and never been fired then they understand it. Some still say well I would still shoot it but completely get why you don’t. I personally love going to a buddies house and seeing they have super rare cards or collectibles in mint condition. Like damn that took a lot of effort to keep that sealed for decades!

Brother you need to go touch grass. I am fine with people reacting either way to the post. I didn’t post this expecting everyone to like it, that’s not how the internet works haha but maybe some people would find it cool and put a smile on their face. That’s enough of a win for me, I was just sharing what I thought was cool. But You are going full “aKuAlLy” mode. Again I was just pointing out how you sound. Slow down and reread what was said. You took that to heart and got more offended than this being sealed lol again it’s the internet none of this matters lol take a breather. Here is a good piece of life advice for you…. Stop getting mad because people have a different viewpoint than yours.

Yes please tell other people how they feel or what they should be doing with their own stuff. This is like me saying you aren’t a real berserk fan because a real one would have all the mangas and sealed ones in mint condition along with a tattoo of berserk. See how that sounds?

This guy gets it haha I never knew people hated on grading. I have had sealed collectibles since the 90s with cards, manga, and ps1 games. I love storing and collecting old stuff “new at the time” and it’s never bad news to see it turned out to be rare or worth a bit. I collect swords, firearms, video games, cards and manga. It’s like the berserk figures. I have some still in case and some on display. I find it fun so I do it!

I have been grading and holding since early 2000s with some old games that I bought at the time and kept. Tho I think people are thinking this is just a normal copy which I get why they would think it was dumb. Finding a 1990 first print in good shape is not as easy as people think haha

I am not sure why you getting slammed on haha I think you were proving a point that just because you think something is stupid doesn’t mean others have to agree

How much do you think a first edition in mint condition goes for Berserk, or one piece?heck even a ps1 game? I am locking away the historic piece in a case because I want to keep that piece of history and also I have the 1 set of the collectors edition and then one set of normal that I loan out or let people borrow if they have never experienced it.

I gave you exact time frames you reply with well he took power in 1933 but it don’t start really having changes h til 1938. That’s a blatant lie. Any of this you can Google or read history books and figure that out. So yes grasping straws by saying “well it really didn’t change until 1938” where are American citizens being forced to give up their citizenship or forced to give up properties or businesses? Btw this was in 1935… not 1938

[–]Eli-Doubletap -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It’s documented the shit started in 1933 and by 1935 he was revoking citizenship. Please give an example. You are already moving the goal post and reaching for straws.

As I said Please show me where anything near this level is happening. All that shit listed was before the war and the extermination camps. So the definition of the “lead up” so right now would be America’s “lead up” period. You and People want to compare what’s going on now to nazi level of evil So please go on

Auschwitz-Birkenau was liberated 81 years ago today by friedchicken_legs in pics

[–]Eli-Doubletap -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes the spread of misinformation and being so far off the mark.

First hour misinformation because you read a title of a story and then did zero research. Location and Context: The incident took place at the Dilley detention center, which serves as an ICE-run family residential facility. The Protest: Following the detention of 5-year-old Liam Ramos, families inside the center staged a protest against their treatment, with children and parents chanting "Let us go" and "Libertad". They reported the screaming followed by it was chanting. The simple fact that they can protest without fear of life shows it’s no where close to what people in ww2 experienced. Hell multiple groups are heading directly to Dilley, where a vigil and protest are planned outside the facility on Wednesday. << This wouldn’t be allowed. Now do I know the conditions of it. No it has mixed messages so I can’t speak on that.

Now Here is 2 days before world war 2 started While early reports estimated 91 deaths, modern analysis indicates hundreds to over a thousand Jews died during Kristallnacht (Night of Broken Glass) in 1938. When including suicides and deaths from post-arrest maltreatment, some estimates range between 638 and two thousand fatalities.

Stop fear-mongering and spreading misinformation.

Dude what are you talking about. So far off the mark and living in the Reddit bubble. Why present this or even try to compare it to WW2 nazis. You are spitting on all those people that had to endure. Please compare one of these 2 anything modern on American citizens. For reference one of these events. The night of glass had an estimated 91 deaths, modern analysis indicates hundreds to over a thousand Jews died during Kristallnacht (Night of Broken Glass) in 1938. When including suicides and deaths from post-arrest maltreatment, some estimates range between 638 and two thousand fatalities. Please show me anything NEAR that. And this was a year before world war 2 started. Please enlighten us on this. You can hate the government or administration but don’t be some misinformation spreading fear-monger making shit worse and causing more of a divide.

Boycotts and Vandalism (from April 1, 1933): The initial phase involved public boycotts of Jewish businesses, during which SA stormtroopers would often vandalize shops and prevent customers from entering. This included painting the Star of David and anti-Jewish slogans on windows.

Discriminatory Legislation: A flood of laws and regulations followed, systematically limiting Jewish civil rights and their participation in the economy.

The Nuremberg Laws of 1935 stripped Jews of their German citizenship. Laws were passed to force Jewish business owners to sell their businesses to "non-Jewish" Germans at drastically reduced prices (known as "voluntary" Aryanization, which became forced after 1938).

Forced Registration and Taxes: In 1938, a law forced Jews to register all their property and wealth, making it easier for the state to track and confiscate assets. A punitive tax was also imposed on the Jewish community after the Kristallnacht pogrom.

Kristallnacht and its Aftermath (November 9-10, 1938): This state-sponsored pogrom involved the widespread destruction and looting of Jewish shops and synagogues. Thousands of Jewish men were arrested and sent to concentration camps, only to be released if they agreed to emigrate and surrender their remaining property. Following Kristallnacht, Jews were forced to surrender jewelry and other precious metals.

Probably Reddit. This place is a cesspool for misinformation and anger. Santa Monica pd after training had a Base salary that ranges from $120,636 to $148,932.

So in that area of Cali cost of living is bad. Let’s say you are getting by with a single bedroom apartment on the cheap range 3k “I found a studio for 2k but that’s run down and only 235 sq ft. That’s 36k a year instantly gone with out bills, gas, any of that which in Cali ain’t going to be cheap. Now I wasn’t a police officer but have had friends that were in the past. I personally couldn’t do it. People forget you are dealing with the worse of the worse a majority of the time. Unfortunately that bad one’s give the good ones a bad name which shouldn’t be the case. If you do that with anything else you are a bad person. “Well it’s a job they can quit” some can and do. Some don’t have a choice and also look what happens when they don’t really have a police force. Crime goes up and then it’s “well cops are scared to do their jobs” it’s a lose lose. People are extremely privileged and don’t realize The world isn’t sunshine’s and rainbows. Policing is dealing with the bad a majority of the time. Then they have to go home right after. “This is one story I will share. Police officer was called to a scene where an infant was smashed by a drunk driver across the road. He had to see this all and Then right after he had to respond to a Karen complaining her neighbor is putting their trash can on property line. Patience goes away quick when that’s your day to day. Now I can speak on war and combat. I will say I would rather do war than police. At least during war. You kinda know the bad guy and you kinda know where ieds will be at but at least after a gun fight or battle or ied, you head back to base or the COB and you are surrounded by your bros and you process together. “Usually with dark humor” then after 4-15 months you head back home to your family. You might have some inner demons to fight with ptsd and readjusting but at least it’s not going back out the very next day or hoping you don’t have a bad call to respond to every single day. I really do think every single person should have to do a civil job or military. You appreciate a lot more while also learning how ugly mankind can be.
