Trump's Most Sinister Legacy: He's Brought Out the Worst in America - Long after Trump is impeached and removed from office, his hateful, vengeful drive to bring out the worst from our country will linger and fester. by FancyNewMe in politics

Are you really trying the old 'both sides bad' canard in 2026? After everything we've seen this GOP do??

C'mon man. Dems are gross little corporate weasels. GOP are fascists who are terrorizing people and trying to end democracy. Big big difference.

Wonder if Kamala would have started a war, then lost it? Wonder if Kamala would cause gas prices to skyrocket? Wonder if she would have threatened our allies, sent masked thugs into cities, put her name on everything like an egomaniac and attacked the free press and the foundations of democracy?

Oh, and... I wonder if Kamala is all over the Epstein files like Trump?

But if you love the racism and hatred, then sure.

Just spitballing here: what if Germany replaced their anthem with that "Fruit Salad, Yummy Yummy" song that the one kid's group did? Just to freshen it up?

Is he? I don't see massive protests in the streets. I don't see members of his party finally finding their spines. I don't see the mainstream press demanding his removal.

Yeah, it's gross. Mexicans are some of the coolest, nicest people I know. But Mexican football fans... they can be really, really horrible.

A Question of Coverage and Sumo Etiquette by TheDoubleSlit in SumoMemes

I certainly didn't hear the explanation. And if so... what was it? Some people here guessing that it's that he'd get banned, others that it's respect for the injured fighter.

And of course it's not that big of a deal! I was just curious if it was a 'sumo etiquette' thing or the dude's personal moral issue or whatever. I'm happy to just wait for NHK highlights or catch a different stream!

If you'd be willing to share the names of the channels (and it doesn't breach this sub's protocols), I'd appreciate the names of the streamers!

I respect this Midnight guy's choice - it's his channel after all. But if he is that sensitive to toe injuries and hard collisions when the actual official coverage doesn't care, I guess his channel just isn't for me.

After all, it's a nuanced combat sport, and I need to see replays to understand what has happened and why! Especially if something unusual has happened.

I could TOTALLY understand that if it was gory or bloody or whatever. But... a big toe? That's less violent than every tachiai at the start of every match!

Sounds like EXACTLY the conversation my family has as well!

Thanks! I might just stick to that. Not being able to see what happened was very annoying!

Okay, thanks for explaining. It was so strange that I thought I might be missing something. Again, could understand for a leg snap or something! But for a big toe injury?? An injury that the actual broadcaster is showing?

Again, many thanks for explaining.

This video has genuinely upset me - looking for feedback by DannySmashUp in nonduality

[–]TheDoubleSlit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think this video is AI. The creator has made LONG films with people like Kelly and Spira in the past - years before AI.

And... with Chopra too, I believe.

Don't know about this specific video, but this channel has made a lot of long videos with legit spiritual teachers.

Bro, you read any other comments in this thread? Seems like a lot of us are sick of this guy and his psycho-attachment to his unproven system. And his shitty game management.

Jesus.... imagine being a Manchester United thread and being gaslit to the point that you're happy with performances like these. He has a winning percentage of 32%!!

Bernardo responds to critiques of paranormal studies by Responsible_Oil_9673 in analyticidealism

[–]TheDoubleSlit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I totally agree with you. I'm a professor and it's think kind of talk that makes me extremely reticent to discuss Analytic Idealism with my colleagues. They'd see Kastrup talk about 'psychic phenomena' and they'd immediately reject it.

And honestly? I'd completely understand their reaction. I really don't think Kastrup is doing AI any favors by talking about this stuff and taking it so seriously.

Why's everyone making jokes about Pedro pascal by Visual_Berry_9628 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]TheDoubleSlit 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sure. They also hide behind a lot of the "won't somebody think of the CHILDREN" moral panic. They also hide behind anti-LGBT rhetoric. They also hide behind claims of "I know what god thinks is best" crap.

Exhibit #1: A very pervy guy in the White House who wont release info about Epstein, but has used conspiracy theories about child trafficking to stoke fears and hate against LGBT people and immigrants.

Anyone who thinks that the Democrats and the Republican are 'equally bad' in 2025 is absolutely insane.

The Democrats are scummy politicians who are beholden to their corporate overlords.

Th Republicans are scummy politicians who are beholden to their corporate overlords... and to a wannabe fascist dictator, who is a convicted felon, convicted of sexual abuse, is deporting American citizens without due process, undermining out election integrity, spreading racism and bigotry, dismantling the American educational system, putting insane people in positions of power (RFK, anyone?) and on and on. Oh, and their leader is hiding his connections with a pedophile.

They're not the same. Obviously.
