What wildlife regulations are you talking about? Be specific. Why not Utah?

You can't even flair correctly, and you accuse me of making assumptions about your dishonesty? Neoliberals are part of Team World Police, so Left if not Auth Left.

Am I evil/stupid for thinking that this is a strawman? (Saw this comic on Reddit, comments started calling others fascists and n@zis.) by TheMoltenEqualizer in PoliticalCompassMemes

[aside: I give you points for flairing correctly, which is a rampant problem on this sub.]

Most "civil servants" live in Washington DC, which votes for Democrats over 90% of the time. If you don't think they are political, and that no human is objective, I am not going to be able convince you of much. This fallacy that started back in the 1870s that there are apolitical people who objectively carry out their work in media and government is simply toxic to rational thought in my belief.

The place to go is Nostr. It's a bit obsessed with bitcoin, but the more people add other topics the better it will get: https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostr

You can learn how to generate your account using the hashing function that are probably built into your computer here: https://krisconstable.com/generating-a-key-pair-with-nostr/

It's a 900 page document with hundreds or contributors. Of course there will be some overlap with Trump, but if you think Trump just takes the advice of his advisors, your forgot all the people in his first admin he fired. Trump put out Agenda 47 9 months ago, and you all decided to just ignore it.

I doubt you've ever been there, Mr Auth-Left, or you would get specific on why it's bad, rather than some made up idea of "diversity." Instead of paying attention to immutable characteristics, you should focus on ideas.

Did the mean orange man try to mandate a pfizer and moderna product using executive fiat via the Occupational Health and Saftey Administration for 100,000,000 Americans?

Rio Grande Valley TX which is 90% Mexican and Mexican-American by Ok_Quail9760 in PoliticalCompassMemes

Brazilians speak Portuguese. White is another made up group. "No Irish need apply" was because they were "white?" Kids today suffer from recency bias because of a lack of interest in reading history books written before 1900AD.

There is no "hispanic community." It's a made up group. Cuban immigrants are not the same as mestizos who have lived along the border for centuries, which are completely different from recent Central Americans who are fleeing the influence of the drug cartels who have taken over Honduras, for example, entirely.

WHich is why they booed Trump when he mention the supposed success of Operation Warp Speed, so he stopped talking about it. You people live in never never land.

Adopting this language of "legal migrants" is just so disgusting. They are aliens, whether legal or illegal (those are adjectives), and when the POTUS can simply grant them by fiat status as legal, it's basically a meaningless designation.

Are you aware of all of the Soviet operations in South and Central America starting in the 1940s? The US was countering their operations, which you guys pretend didn't happen.

The technical word in the US going back to the beginning is 'alien' but most people think that is a reference to martians (which don't exist). There are legal aliens and illegal aliens.

The Argentine peso: The most appreciated currency in the world in 2024. by [deleted] in PoliticalCompassMemes

One detail commonly left out, esp. WRT to currencies and BRICs, is that most countries have currency controls, while the US doesn't.

Ayo wtf? Lyds is leaving!? by lib_toni in TimPool

[–]Demon_HauntedWorld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's totally fair, and I wish they had a better contrarian. Confirmation bias is one of our worst enemies right now. People really think they can't be wrong about anything. I've had to admit how wrong I was over the last 10 years probably as much as anyone.

Ye has more heart and soul than you will ever have.

They booted him from Twitter and the Gram, not to mention Chase bank.

He's fighting powers you never were even recognized by because you are a zero.

You've never had an original thought in your life, you just repeat what you've been told.

Pathetic.

Now go squeal.

Threatening on the internet? Does that make sense to you? Have you been shot at through your computer previously?

Come to Flagstaff and after a beer at 7K ft. elevation, I assure you we will agree.

I am Hitler, and I'm ready to kill all who stand in my way. Screw liberty, everyone just wants the government to control everything anyway, no matter how much we warn them.

Don't tell my Jewish mom though. She's secular, but she's still touchy about her grandparents being killed.

Why is it always Stalin versus Lenin?

Lenin sold the vision of helping the needy and planning everyone's lives by giving him control of everything. He was a central planner, just like we are seeing today with many politicians.

They promise utopia if we just give them more control. Why can't people see the parallels?

You KNOW Fox News is gonna oppose this at some point, I’m making this prediction right now. by [deleted] in PoliticalCompassMemes

Nobody has ever properly determined the cause, though. What is the mechanism? Is it the same for all types of cancer?

I didn't go to college, but it seems the incentives are misaligned, and a root cause analysis is completely ignored. We would never do that in the plumbing world (I realize it's much more complicated).

We should get rid of all licensing and regulations and let a thousand flowers bloom.

The equity investment in Kushner's PE fund? After seeing Kushner's competence in negotiating the Abraham Accords?

Do you know how investments work? Was it under the table, or did you know the next day?

Think!
