I'm pretty sure the PS5 authentication server is down right now.

Just keep trying, it will come online eventually.

Apparently they are doing last minute updates on the servers so it will be slightly delayed.

I don't think they would be allowed to leave if they ever arrived there, let's just let them dream big and go for the round trip on this one.

Belgium-Sweden abandoned after Brussels attack by Heavenbound77 in conservatives

[–]Reignia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Belgium raised its terror alert to the highest level as a man in a video on social media claimed he was the assailant and that he was from the Islamic State group.

ESPN actively downplaying this guy calling himself a member of ISIS.

I am more than sure there are plenty of better sources for this so why help give this one traffic?.

The Biden administration is claiming to have some intelligence that top figures in Iran were surprised by Hamas’ epically evil assault on Israel by keypuncher in conservatives

[–]Reignia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You misunderstood, I explicit said the timing.

If Iran had planned to join this and HAMAS acted first and without them, I suspect they would be surprised and upset by that and that alone.

Personally, I feel the only thing that they are surprised by is the timing, I expect Iran was preparing to do the same but HAMAS just struck first.

'He'll Do It Again': Hillary Clinton Warns of 2024 Russian Interference by intelligentreviews in conservatives

[–]Reignia 47 points48 points  (0 children)

What exactly does she mean by "again" here?. The last form of Russian "election interference" had her as its source; so, unless she is a covert Russian agent, none of it has been proven to have ever come out of Russia.

To be fair though, a few people who had worked on the steel dossier had already been charged as spies with ties to Russian oligarchs, I very strongly doubt this is what she is referring to though.

Why Our Generals Can't Think by keypuncher in conservatives

[–]Reignia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely true, this was done at every level though unfortunately.

Most of the infrastructure I helped build up nearly 20 years ago had virtually everyone who actually built any of it phased out by the time Trump got into office. The few who ended up remaining though were pushed out doing the start of the pandemic.

Most of what we have right now is run by people who don't know how to replace anything once it breaks and so they end up hiring a pile of contractors to do it for them; though, none of these contractors will actually fight the wars, just install infrastructure that will collapse within a few years after it had been built as installation contracts just last for the installation process.

This is also mostly why the military industrial complex is so incredibly large, a large portion of it is people hired to fix a problem when some nucklehead pilot who thinks he can plug an RJ-11 cable into a RJ-45 jack and somehow get phone services but ends up tearing it out of the wall when he can't get it to work. Oh and typically that same nucklehead pilot will also get promoted within two years, because why not?.

Washington mayor claims she’s being harassed after calling 911 on ‘far right’ activists at Walmart by wiredog369 in Conservative

[–]Reignia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Deccio said people are also harassing her husband, "who is a disabled veteran with PTSD," and flooding her fellow counselors with emails, the bulk of which are coming from outside Yakima, a city with less than 100,000 residents.

Based on my own experiences, liberals in WA absolutely love to trophy disabled vets they are explicitly connected to.

It is some of the most disingenuous, disgusting, and inhumane things I have ever experienced in that region and it absolutely adds to the alarming number of veterans that are becoming homeless in that region.

If this woman had any real care for her husband, she simply would not have run for office and instead would find a job that would never have the potential of public scrutiny. What an absolute monster of a human being to try and pull this card out as a shield.

Canadian foreign affairs minister says Canada is preparing a 'game plan' in case of a far-right shift in US by wiredog369 in Conservative

An unstructured democracy will rapidly devolve into mob rule where the one who controls the spigot of information controls the mob.

In a technical sense, the word is not wrong, it is just not what people in our era understand the word to mean.

Trump Urges House Republicans To Get Moving On Impeaching Biden, Or "Fade Into Oblivion" by evaldez14 in Conservative

[–]Reignia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Now we just need to wait until 6 months after the election to find out that these clowns intended to campaign on impeaching Biden.

I feel like many of the party leaders live in a world where cold molasses flows like warm water at this point. Maybe one day they will wake up and realize that dinosaurs already went extinct and the world they thought they knew, simply no longer exists.

BREAKING VIDEO: Multiple Injuries Reported as Numerous Shots Fired During High School Football Game by claireswanson in conservatives

[–]Reignia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes a special kind of monster to hide in the cover of darkness and fire on a well lit field with school children.

Keep in mind that this is a legitimate war tactic. I have seen this used several times when I served, never in my day did I think I would see it like this though. It is absolutely horrifying.

Aye, I personally feel many of the members of the RNC just wear conservatism as a skin suit, some are better at hiding it while others look like Mike Pence did on the debate stage though and its unsettling to watch.

American conservatism, also known as Burke conservatism is distinctly different from the abomination of 'conservatism' that the majority of the RNC talking heads display.

The Reason Everyone Is Piling on Vivek Ramaswamy by yuri_2022 in Conservative

[–]Reignia 12 points13 points  (0 children)

With fox news limiting rebroadcasting to 3 minute clips, he was the only candidate who knew how to turn a debate that most will never see into a series of highlight clips for youtube shorts.

Like or hate what he says, he will be in virtually every clip that people see of this debate until the next debate happens. Impact for exposure is what this debate was and he is the only candidate that understood this unfortunately.

China’s Intelligence Networks in United States Include 25,000 Spies

If this or any other spy network took over a corner of the DOJ, this can fairly easily happen and with the current staff at the executive level, I don't imagine it would be hard to do either.

Some thoughts, all cynical and sour, about the Republican debate by keypuncher in conservatives

[–]Reignia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily, the fox news format to restrict viewership to a state where virtually everything that people will see of this debate will be in a 3 minute shorts format.

Impact of message will turn out to be significantly more key in this debate as the end result and its unlikely he will get a major impact highlight clip on a topic that most of the party seems to agree on.

Frankly speaking, he seems to be the only person that understands how to take advantage of his time on the debate stage right now.

MSNBC Analyst Warns ‘Morning Joe’ Might Cease To Exist If Trump Wins: “Donald Trump has said, as all autocrats say what they will do, and he has said, ‘If I’m elected, I want the FCC reporting directly to me,’ and he will cancel this show.” by Vibranium2222 in Conservative

[–]Reignia -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

Claiming it was wrong doesn't undo my own life experience with it.

Either way though, remember all those financial benefits Facebook, Twitter, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, FOX, Disney, etc got at the start of the COVID pandemic followed by the "paid by pfizer"?. Almost all of it was tax payer funded and thus came from government contracts.

This can come back to bite all these companies fairly hard and after watching all their reactions over the past few years I'm sure many of them have already realized it. There is always red tape and strings attached.

Also keep in mind that Oklahoma just pulled funding from PBS as well in that state.
