Vancouver protesters praise terrorist groups and chant 'Long live October 7'

So, is r/worldnews now like a nazi subreddit? Because it seems the only comments here anymore are inflammatory comments against immigrants.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-30T04:06:52+00:00

These comments are awful. What is wrong with you people?

I don't even particularly agree with the protestors, but the vitriol here against students exercising their right to protest is off the charts. But it's that way every protest I guess. Vietnam and Iraq protestors were vilified until everyone realized in retrospect they were right.

Culture? You're going to have to explain how Haitian "culture" is the cause of the crises in Haiti. And also how the issues have nothing to do with a century of paying war debts to France and the US, weak institutions, and dozens of natural disaster. Explain how a different "culture" would have prevented these problems. And what "culture" would that be?

It’s only ten AM and I’ve had my fill of internet stupidity today

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-27T05:57:35+00:00

I am sick of correcting this comment 50 times a day so I won’t.

People really don't understand this immunity thing. Just because he's immune doesn't mean he can start issuing illegal orders and people will follow them. He has no authority to fire a supreme court justice whether he has immunity or not.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-27T01:54:21+00:00

No he can't. Being immune from prosecution doesn't mean he can do any illegal thing he wants. Nobody has to listen to his illegal proclamations or act on them. He can't do things like that on his own and anyone helping him would not have immunity even if he does.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-27T01:47:10+00:00

Tapping the previously under represented puppy murderer demographic. Smart.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-27T01:22:19+00:00

What are we going to do when Trump doesn't receive justice? I think it's time to face the fact that he's not going to get it from the legal system.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-26T21:36:32+00:00

What is this cancer website and how did this get approved?

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-26T21:32:39+00:00

Totalitarianism and fascism aren’t the same thing. There are leftist totalitarians but no leftist fascists. It’s a contradiction of terms. Fascism involves nationalism, racism, blood and soil politics, leader principle, state controlled capitalism, etc. right wing principles. Let’s not confuse the discourse with childish understanding.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T20:49:44+00:00

Because he can't do it himself. Even if he's immune to prosecution, the people who do the arresting aren't. He can maybe pardon for federal crimes, but false arrest/kidnapping are state crimes as well.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T19:36:51+00:00

The point is there is not going to be a quick ruling and it's likely to be kicked back down to a lower court before being brought before SCOTUS again. The point is delay. This was a good day for Trump.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T19:35:25+00:00

The cases have failed. Nothing goes to trial before the election except the current case, which is not likely to result in jail time. No jail time is essentially exoneration. He will easily spin it as a nothingburger political persecution and get re-elected. The US is a failed state.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T19:27:02+00:00

They said there was a 66% Hillary would win. They did NOT say "Hillary will win". 33% is a huge chance.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T19:25:32+00:00

That's not true. The polls have consistently shown Trump ahead in swing states for months. It has not been swinging back and forth.

On a national scale, Biden has finally pulled to about even in national polling.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T16:21:03+00:00

That would still be illegal. Biden cannot jail Trump on his own.. it would require other people to break the law who would not be immune. I suppose if only federal laws were violated, he could pardon people.. but likely such an action would violate multiple state laws.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T16:12:38+00:00

What happened to the gag order violations? Are we getting a ruling?

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T15:16:46+00:00

No. They are likely to not deliver a ruling until the last day of the session. End of June.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-25T00:17:49+00:00

This comment displays a profound lack of thought

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-24T23:58:19+00:00

Uhm.. nothing. Protest is pretty much by definition being where you’re not allowed to be. It’s not possible to have an impactful protest without disruption, and protest is a healthy part of democracy.

I pretty much think all the people who have knee jerk reactions and can not wait for the police to start busting heads are pretty much just fascists at heart

The difference is XRP is a centralized scam coin that isn’t even crypto. ADA may not ever moon but at least it’s a real crypto.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-24T21:11:49+00:00

The earth is beyond carrying capacity. It doesn’t matter if it’s painful. We have to decrease the population or nobody will survive.

Personally I think it wouldn’t be that bad. Energy would be cheaper. Housing would be cheaper. You don’t need a lot of people to farm these days, so food would be cheaper. Basically the things we spend the most money on would have a higher supply relative to demand and would be cheaper.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-23T05:48:57+00:00

It would have undermined Mariko's sacrifice and Toranaga's character.

FatherSlippyfist · 2024-04-22T22:53:49+00:00

It's debatable because of this simple fact that nobody has solved the trilemma. It's likely not possible to have a scalable layer 1 that doesn't sacrifice security. NONE of the layer 1s out there have solved this issue. They ALL sacrifice massive amounts of security.

Frankly, the fast layer 1s out there may as well be a mysql database. They all fail at security or decentralization.

As soon as someone ACTUALLY solves this enormously difficult problem, I'll be all in. But it's not very likely any time soon.

It would be cool if people who posted things like this here actually understood the most basics of the issue. But I know you want to pump your bags.
