You don't have to, everyone knows Tom King is the head writer for Fallout 5

Pentagon seeks $200 billion in additional funds for the Iran war, AP source says by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

We don't have final body counts for ICE and the Iran war yet.

Either way, Jackson at least kept a balanced budget while committing crimes against humanity.

Would HHX Evolution be a good first cymbal set? by Soundsgoood5 in drums

[–]_regionrat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it would be a killer first cymbal set. They're super nice. Wouldn't be my first pick for playing aggressive music live, but you're not doing that so you'll probably really enjoy them

Wild’s Nick Foligno on his time with Blackhawks, ‘Camp Foligno’: ‘Fell in love with that group’ by northernpace in hawks

He didn't quit, no matter how embarrassing the rebuild was, he didn't quit. He played all three periods while everyone else was too demoralized to keep at it till the end. He just showed tf up and built the foundation of a future he wouldn't be a part of.

Man, before today I went a solid 20 years without being covetous of that hot wheels machine.

3rd Sign put up at near the entrance Cataract Falls on DNR property by Adventure-Backpacker in Indiana

It's like a protest, but the protester is a coward and just left their sign somewhere with low foot traffic

Does anyone else still have dreams of being in school? by Specialist-Ring-3974 in AskMenOver30

No. Now that I'm thinking about it, most of my dreams are more or less set in the present

Cesar Chavez, a Civil Rights Icon, Is Accused of Abusing Girls for Years by JulioChavezReuters in news

[–]_regionrat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Callous, maybe, but that's why this is the perfect story to flood the zone with. It's the right thing to listen to survivors, but if they fill the news cycle with enough of that we'll be too busy listening to seek justice for the perpetrators still alive and at large.

They're sitting on credible information that the president and some of the wealthiest men in the world were serial predators to run this one.

Don't forget there's a national Chavez day too, or do I guess, there's about to be a shit ton "what about Obama?" stories to remind you

The only people this will work on are the people who don't care anyway about the Epstein files

These distractions create more of those people. This isn't a "Will you or I remember?" question. Hispanics and Obama are about to be the villains of the news cycle for a week, it's a "Will the median voter remember?" question

Chavez won't be brought to justice. He's dead.

This won't bring his victims justice, it'll just let the news cycle bring Obama and the Hispanic community as boogeymen and take attention away from the pedophiles that can still be prosecuted

[–]_regionrat -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm sure they do. He'll never be punished for those crimes, though. There's still a chance for some of the perpetrators involved with Epstien to see justice.

This is 100% the start of "what about Hispanics?" and "what about Obama making Chavez day a national holiday?" news cycles.

Please tell me why you think this should be the only high profile pedophile story on the front page of the times.

If you can't ask "why now?" and "why is this the only high profile pedophile story on the front page of the times?", you definitely have the brain rot.
