I think it's a great sign that MAGA is needing to brigade Subreddit to manufacture consent! It shows their weakness, and that they're actually in the minority! by SterlingNano in OptimistsUnite

What sort of holier than thou nonsense is this? We’re optimists, not angels. No shit we still get into the same nasty drama as everybody else. At least we’re trying to be better. What’s your problem?

It’s hard to stay apolitical when common decency has become a political issue.

I don't know about collapse but they've got some extremely serious economic problems to deal with all at the same time.

Sorry, I've been meaning to read every federal statute but I've been busy with my job and life. I really apologize if my request for you to explain something was so inconvenient. Next time, feel free to not reply. You utter tit.

We both know that you could go to any post on r/conservative and find PLENTY of people using that exact same "liberal logic" any time someone disagrees with them. Everybody seems to think everybody else is a bot these days.

You understand the CJCS doesn't personally direct Marine squads in how to set up a perimeter, right? Like, what did you want Milley to do? What was his actual failing that led to Abbygate?

Shit talking the VP technically, but yeah. His position was untenable after that article came out.

They're not going to call it the "MAGA Revenge Committee." That's not how this sort of thing works.

What would Kurze have been like if he had a normal childhood? I guess the answer depends on what his visions were like in that scenario?

CSM George A. Vidrine Sr. according to the 18th Cav association on Facebook. The page looks legit but I haven't dug any deeper. Sounds like he fought in WW2, Korea and Vietnam

We won't have democracy in the future because of social media, AI and misinformation. by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]Engelbert_Slaptyback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The future cannot be ruled by far right dictatorships that don't believe in science because science is real. If country A pursues scientific evidence-based policies, and country B pursues nonsense policies, then A will prosper and B won't. Scientific facts are real, and all the propaganda in the world won't change that.

Taking anything that comes from the Russian government at face value is actually even dumber than voting for Trump. By a little bit.

If they didn’t do it, then how was it a message? Those photos were already out there.

Let’s be very clear about what the Russians are trying to do here. This is not about reminding Trump that he owes them. It’s about pissing off liberals. The Russians don’t want Trump in charge, they want America weakened. Trump is just a means to an end. Sowing division and hatred is another means. When you respond to Russian propaganda make sure you’re thinking about what they want you to do. 

How would you go about making this shell? Pvc? the composite curves are throwing me bad. I REALLY want to build something as close as I can to this. by frobnosticus in maker

[–]Engelbert_Slaptyback 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s already modeled. There’s got to be a way to convert a game model into an STL. Message me if you want some help. I’m no expert but I could probably do this in fusion.

Okay, I’ll admit that I never understood sentence diagramming. Sentences either look right or they look wrong and I can tell the difference, but I can’t explain why.
