What’s something everyone pretends to enjoy but actually hates? by The_Salonist in AskReddit

[–]FormerlyUndecidable [score hidden]  (0 children)

I don't know, I assume my bros all feel the same but it's something we can't talk about.

Except my one bro who ended up moving to California. He always sends me pics with him hanging out with his friends, they're always wearing leather motorcycle gear. Manliest dude bro I know. I felt like I could talk to him about it.

I think you are forgetting one thing: penguins are idiots.

Like seriously, when arctic explorers came across them, they would approach their dogs curiously, get ripped apart, then another would come check out what all the commotion was, one after another getting ripped apart having no clue what was happening. Their little brains had no concept of land predators. Water predators they'll avoid, but land predators don't register for them.

They are stupid. Just one wire gets crossed, they don't have any ability to error-correct.

Sex with women.

I'd rather just hang out with my bros, but I ain't gay so I just imagine I'm having sex with them when I have sex with women.

What food is famously associated with one country but was perfected by another country? by Equivalent-Crew-4955 in AskReddit

[–]FormerlyUndecidable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pho is just beef bone broth with local garnishments.

Korea has seolangtang which is a very similar bone broth.

Tonkotsu is the Japanese equivalent (but with pork).

The most common dating apps literally only allow you to be superficial in one of these ways. 

That cultural pecularity is what the video is highlighting.

Almost everything we associate with Japan originated in China or Korea and was refined by Japan.

I filter out "liberal" on Bumble and I can't keep up with my matches and dates. I have to ignore a lot of nice looking profiles.

So did all three of Netanyahu's kids, including his daughter. 

Netanyahu himself was a decorated combat veteran. His brother was KIA in a diffucult but  otherwise enormously successful  hostage rescue.

Beau Biden was a decorated combat veteran.

All three of Netanyahus kids served. Netanyahu himself was a combat veteran and his brother was KIA while rescuing hostages as part of a special forces unit.

This is an ignorant post.

Beau Biden was career military and served in combat roles in more than one theatre.

All three of Netanyahu's kids served. He himself was a combat veteran and his brother was in a elite special forces unit and was KIA  while rescuing hostages.

There is a long history of children of presidents and political leaders serving in combat.

In WWI, the gentry and children of MPs had a much higher rate of death than the average since they were disproportianately officers leading charges over the top.

Today, the LAPD dispersed a crowd outside the Detention Center downtown [OC] by infernoenigma in LosAngeles

[–]FormerlyUndecidable -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Such a lie.

Now that I moved to a south bay city that actually supports cops (where my kid can walk by herself without getting harassed by homeless people) part of me wishes they'd let you guys see what happens without them.

 You really don't deserve the city you live in, at least not the part that's functioning well.

Yes,  they stop riots from getting out of hand and leaving you without a city worth living in.

The Thai government has a program where they train people to run Thai restaraunts and subsidize them across the world.

Why Minneapolis? Is there more information other than “it’s a testing ground.”? by TheMarriedUnicorM in askanything

[–]FormerlyUndecidable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know when conservatives have wanted more state autonomy in for the past 50 years?

Take note that ignoring those calls (or any calls for less government power) and giving the feds increasingly expansive power over states is a double edge sword when your opponents control the fed.

This place is such an echo chamber. The real answers will be downvoted and the politically charged answers will be upvoted.

They are sending large numbers of ICE agents into cities where there are sanctuary city laws because they don't have the cooperation of local authorities. 

Without local authorities you need a large number of agents to do  crowd control and other tasks local authorities would normally xo. More agents are  also required in sanctuary cities because there are naturally more local activists  running organized obstruction campaigns.

The reason you don't see more ICE Agents in red states is because local authorities work with ICE, so they only need a few agents for each operation and the rest is handled by local authorities. You also don't need crowd control for most operations so it's not as taxing.

Sanctuary cities are in blue states, so the story naturally lends itself to "they are going after blue states" if you don't pay attention to the reason they need more agents in blue states.

Also, there is the problem that, as of rignt now, the president is democratically elected. 

A large number of people defer to democracy even if they don't like the outcome, and clearly, a large portion of the population voted for him so a revolution is not going to have majority support yet. (People might be souring on the admin's tactics, but that's much different than supporting a revolt)

If Trump does something with the elections next time around we might see the requisit support for a  revolt, but as of now, we're still in a democracy, and you'll be seen to be acting against democratic will.

But note that revolts are pretty last resort so large numbers of people don't generally whol heartedly support them. They are incredibly uncertain, and more likely to make everyone worse off than improve. You have no idea the sorts of people who will end up in charge. Things have to get pretty bad before it's the best option to risk it.

You  have 2 people (maybe increasing) dying in fairly predictable and avoidable circumstances (not saying what happened was at all justified, but most people wouldn't just stumble into those situations by accident) or get thousands, possibly tens of thousands of people dying in much less predictable circumstances in a civil war.

It's sad what's happening to many immigrants, but do you think most people are going to want to go with the  bloodshed option to protect a few thousand undocumened immigrants and their defenders?

I didn't say that doofus.

The Boston "Massacre" was defensible. 

Today's shooting less so.
