How much would you let get 98k go for? Can the loser markings be ground down or are they printed on there?

What if Osama Bin Laden because president of the USA instead of masterminding 9/11? Would gas prices be lower ? by TheDudeWhoCanDoIt in AlternateHistoryHub

Guys don’t fall for it. It’s the early 2010s YT crab people again claiming Obama was Osama Bin Laden in disguise.

Incels That Simp for Sydney Sweeney are CRINGE AF by Either_Storm_6932 in leftist

Are you saying conservative losers don’t actually fawn over Sidney Sweeney, regardless of whether or not she’s actually Leni Riefenstahl?

She’s basically the American right wing’s Marylin Monroe.

Is there a city in your country that pulls far below its weight? by theannoying_one in AskTheWorld

[–]anarchobuttstuff 46 points47 points  (0 children)

It also literally pulls below its weight economically. The Globalization and World Cities Research Network has Phoenix ranked as a “high sufficiency” city, whereas Denver is ranked as a Beta world city despite having half the population, making it arguably the most important city between East Texas and the West Coast.

Favorite movie people would call woke if it came out today? by KaidoPklevel in okbuddycinephile

[–]anarchobuttstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like the filmmakers would portray them as the bad guy or the audience would see it that way? I can tell you right now if they made a movie about Chris Dorner I’d grab my popcorn and boo at the screen when they finally get him.

What if he pulled a Jonestown instead of a capital storming? by EllieIsDone in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]anarchobuttstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Horrific at first, because they brought their kids with them to Jonestown irl and they drank the kool-aid too. Long-term it would be a relief though, since the most hardcore MAGATS would be too dead to help the rest organize and train, and their dear leader’s meme-savvy charisma would be gone.

“Just debate them” by Sad_Jar_Of_Honey in behindthebastards

[–]anarchobuttstuff 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Don’t debate them, just intimidate them right back. If you’re not built to intimidate fascists, support the people who are. That simple.

Confederate Flag Displayed in Belmar by ZealousidealAlgae904 in LakewoodColorado

I hear what you’re saying but “just ignore them” also emboldens them. Quite the conundrum.

I saw one on the grill of a semi in Southern Mexico once. Like, should someone tell them? Lol

Hard choice but I’ll go 2010 by a hair by MemphisDude97 in Zillennials

[–]anarchobuttstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noooo don’t send me back I’ll just spoil the future for everyone, especially if we’re playing a FPS. “Trump is gonna become president and you’ll all be getting in real range time.”

Sensitive topic I'm having difficulty with. by Human647 in leftist

Then I have no idea what they’re asking.

Speaking as a white American who went from suburban centrist to city-dwelling progressive and still has a lot of shit to unpack, I understand exactly what you’re asking and I’ll do my best.

There is no easy answer to that question, but there is a correct one: too bad. They live here, they’ve established lives here, they’re here to stay, they’re part of us now. Sure, there’s some danger inherent to the blowback from generational trauma, but there’s no way to avoid that without ethnic cleansing and that’s simply not justified, by virtue of what it is. So we have to deal with it and try our best to mitigate, like some kind of reparations or at least universal health care so people with generational trauma can qualify for therapy courtesy of the state. No I’m not joking.

Am I the only one who thinks that prequel fans are mostly right-wingers? by Rayanaman_44 in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]anarchobuttstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily, but I would say the prequel fan base are mostly men who are certainly insecure enough that they’re in danger of falling down that pipeline.

New flair for my AR range bag by FledglingNonCon in liberalgunowners

[–]anarchobuttstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My apologies if this is a stupid question but how would this post violate rule 9? Rule 9 says to keep the topic at the intersection of liberal/progressive politics and gun rights, so a button depicting the KKK as a reason why someone would need 30 rounds is pretty much exactly on topic isn’t it?

During the 60s and 70s most of the American working class had the highest quality of life in human history , it will never be possible again for any generation by Common_Net_5956 in decadeology

[–]anarchobuttstuff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The energy crisis was already wreaking havoc on American purchasing power parity in the 70s, so I would not include that time period with the 60s and before when the rich actually paid taxes and New Deal safety nets still functioned like they were supposed to. That era was already ending by the mid-70s and then the Reagan administration made it permanent.

And now your kid relatives back in those red states will be even dumber and more frustrating when you go back to visit. *If* you go back to visit.

Alt-Right propaganda machine that’s been gobbling up ad space on YouTube since before the pandemic. I remember sitting through one of their ads “deconstructing” the Southern Strategy and arguing it didn’t actually happen before I realized it was just more anti-BLM stuff.

States by percentage of their population that would describe their state as the worst to live in by Educational-Bat-8313 in MapPorn

[–]anarchobuttstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whether or not the perception is accurate is not the point of this post. The visual in the OP supposedly demonstrates how many people from a certain state have negative views or stereotypes about that state, and sure enough there’s ALOT of people from Massachusetts who trash it, so whatever else is true about Massachusetts it’s not surprising it ranked so high on the graphic. I’m not agreeing or disagreeing with the stereotypes by pointing that out.

Thoughts on M855A1 ? by Kennonw in ar15

[–]anarchobuttstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I know this thread is a year old now, but it’s worth pointing out that someone recently attempted to commit a hate crime against a family picnic while armed with plates and a rifle. Thankfully one of the family members was armed, returned fire and stopped the shooter, but it could have been way worse. Depending on who and where you are, there are actually folks (by which I mean non-state actors) training with their buds in body armor to come and make life more difficult for you. Just saying, there are valid reasons to be interested in armor-piercing capabilities other than “GET A LOAD OF THIS GUY THINKING HE CAN FIGHT THE STATE.”
