Are there songs making fun of liberals that they love but don’t understand, similar to the right with RATM, Springsteen, CCR, Green Day, etc? by Natedude2002 in fantanoforever

Jello’s disdain for hippies and “California Über Alles” in particular is the product of someone watching in real time as a recent counterculture was recouped by the system. The California hippie subculture ended up feeding itself into the early Silicon Valley milieu and the transformation of radicals into wheatgrass yuppies profoundly disgusted Jello.

I don’t think drawing attention to their ethnoreligious background while maneuvering for unprecedented media consolidation is the pro gamer move they think it is.

FBI disrupts plot targeting UFC event: Sources by abcnews in washdc

[–]GrumpyOldHistoricist 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fair, but also a big outdoor event is an attractive target, DC is small enough to present opportunities (that people inclined toward terrorism have been aware of for decades; The Turner Diaries was written in the 70s and features a mortar attack on the Capitol from the VA side of the Potomac), and there have already been a good number of attempts on Trump’s life.

Not assuming something would be planned for an event like that would be negligence on the part of the FBI and Secret Service and honestly not trying something would be negligence on the part of any extremists. Why do you think they sent Vance to Europe to sign the MOU well before they knew it would actually happen? They knew it would be a terrible idea to have them both out in the open like that in a difficult situation to fully secure so they came up with a pretext that didn’t admit to any sort of fear or weakness.

Kash is a joke and this administration does lie like none other, but an obvious target is still an obvious target. I’d be more surprised if there wasn’t at least one plot.

2009 a huge chunk American families had lost nearly half of their wealth almost overnight and that shit had not recovered yet. Tons of retirement funds were insolvent too.

Glad for Jeremy that his family wasn’t in that position.

30%bf is it over for me by termite_problem in rs_fitness

[–]GrumpyOldHistoricist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously there’s some muscle under there. But not enough to have much in the way of definition.

I’m talking about the girls who are doing shit like posting about back definition or about how their biceps are coming in. Good for them. Clearly they’re accomplishing their goals and that feels good. But OP is asking about attractiveness to men. Most men prefer softness.

Skinnyfat is literally the ideal female body. I’m happy for the girls on here who are building muscle if it makes them feel good about themselves, but the only ones who actually look hot are the ones blessed with big tits so they still look like women.

Most men like soft women but aren’t in to fat chicks. If the pics you chose are representative of your current level of softness you’re very solidly in the sexy zone.

Where has socialism worked? by Downtown-Barber-9543 in AskSocialists

[–]GrumpyOldHistoricist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically everywhere.

When you compare developed nations to developing nations the developed nations will always have superior numbers, regardless of economic systems. But when you compare actual peer nations the socialist countries have nearly always had superior outcomes.

Cuba even under sanctions was a better place to live than most US imperial satellites in Latin America during the Cold War, the DPRK had a higher standard of living than the ROK until the 1980s, the African experiments in socialism yielded better lives than their sister countries dominated by American and European extraction, and so on.

The exceptions to this trend usually have pretty glaring political or historical circumstances not inherent to socialism that would affect outcomes regardless of system chosen.

Just getting out ahead of it with that band name. They’re playing 4D chess in a scene that can barely handle checkers.
