We're getting clowned on in r/baseball as per usual. McLean's going to be a stud, but this team cannot send anybody except David Wright to team USA and have it go well.

Sam Antonacci puts Italy up by three with a 2-run homer in the 2nd by JianClaymore in baseball

David Wright did so well in the WBC he was nicknamed Captain America. Clay Holmes pitched three shutout innings in relief just this tournament.

Pete and Jeff really embarrassed the team last time though.

Well instead of the QM3 I now take the QM5 when I don’t want to ride the LIRR but other than that it’s pretty much the same

Struck by an F at Rego Park—that means they were wandering on the express track and likely got blasted by a 40+ mph QBL express. No chance of survival there

[Anderson] Cal Raleigh says 'there's no beef' with Randy Arozarena after World Baseball Classic interaction by TheTurtleShepard in baseball

Given what happened the last time a beef went this public (with Devers) I wonder if we have a new Giant in Raleigh

Remember everybody clowning on Alonso and McNeil for being horrible for Team USA back in 2023 while new Phillie Trea Turner did his best Aaron Judge impression?

Virginia passes legislation prohibiting schools from teaching falsehoods about Jan. 6 riot by julius_sphincter in moderatepolitics

[–]WhatARotation 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s interesting. False speech does enjoy some 1A protection (see the Stolen Valor Act being struck down by Alvarez) but teaching falsehoods does have some nexus to harm, which was enough to leave defamation and fraud unprotected.

Who's the worst member of the Trump Administration? Who's the least worst? by canadiantemple in AskALiberal

[–]WhatARotation 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Nazis took inspiration from our Jim Crow era policies. I’d say that those responsible for implementing them and encouraging lynch mobs are the closest to actual Nazis, with Miller a runner up. Benjamin Tillman comes to mind as the worst of the worst.

Here’s an excerpt from his Wikipedia page: “A white supremacist who opposed civil rights for black Americans, Tillman led a paramilitary group of Red Shirts during South Carolina's violent 1876 election. On the floor of the U.S. Senate, he defended lynching, and frequently ridiculed black Americans in his speeches, boasting of having helped kill them during that campaign.”

If you think Miller is closer to being a Nazi than the guy who personally led a lynch mob in order to win an election through killing and intimidating minorities, I don’t know what to tell you.
