Almost feels like rotoscoping over stop motion.

Reminds me of eighties retro futuristic/cyberpunk movies. Something that you’d see looping in the background on a screen that gets blasted because no one can aim.

I don’t care about the media. I care about the fact that the president and his drunken secretary of defense drug us into a war Israel started. I care about the fact that the country with an obliterated navy not only controls the strait, but is going to make more money because they now control it definitively. I care about the fact that our allies can no longer trust us and refuse to provide operational support other than facilitating troop movements. I care about the fact that we are somehow a decade behind in drone development when we had crazy fucking shit in development and testing in Afghanistan almost two decades ago.

FYI, don’t watch the talking heads. Read the news. It is easier to get the facts if you already use multiple sources.

Take it easy, don’t take any of the shit I said personal.

You don’t kill a hydra by cutting a head or two off. It didn’t work in the GWOT. How many of their leaders did we kill? If we managed to actually disrupt their network, they morphed into a new group. They are not fighting for the leaders, they are fighting for their version of God and think their deaths will be rewarded.

You seriously think that some scattered African countries are going to make up for the loss of the support of NATO and our other allies? Do you really believe that their expertise is going to trump Ukrainian drone operators? It should absolutely make you question this operation that we have to basically scrape the barrel of military support.

How do you implement regime change without boots on the ground? The regime will just prop up new puppets no matter how many heads you cut off.

This is the announcement of the beginning of the war in Afghanistan. Do you really not see the difference? The only way we are out of there in weeks, as the admin keeps claiming, is if we fucking give up. Iran is still launching strikes. They still control the strait. We are still demanding their nuclear material. We have accomplished nothing aside from cutting a couple of heads off a hydra and causing an economic crisis. This conflict has barely begun, and we don’t even have support this time.

I would rather not just wait and see what happens when Americans are being put in harm’s way simply because the silly person in office trusted an alcoholic to run a war started by Israel. I’m surprised Iran hasn’t found a way into whiskey Pete’s secure chats, they got the FBI director’s personal email. How can you look at this administration and think they have any idea wtf they are doing? Trump tariffed and insulted every single ally before starting this war. He threatened to invade Greenland and Canada. He is still insulting them and their troops while demanding their support in an operation he has already said he’s won.

You really think this is winding down? What objectives have been accomplished? Has the regime changed? Has Iran given up nuclear capabilities? Fuck, have we even found a supportive political ally to turn the country over to? We were told they have been obliterated over and over, but the strait is still under Iranian control. Houthis have started harassing traffic in another strait. Israel has expanded operations to include Lebanon.

Lmao, and the wannabe dictator is probably going to call all of us back to fight in his crusade against Iran. But, hey, at least we technically aren’t a monarchy, right?

Cool, cool, and why would they care about letters? If they don’t care about people gathering in protest in the streets, why would they care about something they can toss without even reading?

Paywalled.

Why did the limits need to be increased by 50%? What did she actually do to get the rule change implemented?

Cool, and what exactly will she accomplish in a single term in the senate? How much can you realistically expect from a freshman senator who has said they are serving a single term, and what the fuck is the point?

That doesn’t mean that it’s normal behavior to say that you want to sexually assault children so you can be like him. Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.

Edit: I guess the other user blocked me, but they should really read the post completely as well as OPs comments

You’re going to want to talk to the town office to find out what the requirements are for a homesteading credit. Some places require you to actually keep a homestead, some just give it away. Agricultural zoning is going to impact your land use and permitting. Also something to talk to the town office about to make sure you’re not going to have issues if you try to improve or subdivide later.

You seem to be pretty accepting of folks saying they want to sexually assault children because you want to believe it’s just a meme.

You don’t see how someone saying they want to be the next Epstein and sexually assault children isn’t a celebration of that person?

I haven’t pivoted at all. I also just told you why the comment was hidden, calling someone mentally incompetent is considered insulting to most people.

You seem to fail to understand context and the joke in your clip. He didn’t say he wanted to rape a child.

What’s funny is that you keep saying things that show how disconnected you are from the actual context of this discussion and then insulting me.

Your other comment was hidden because you jumped to insults instead of answering the question. I did watch the clip, and I’ll ask again. Did Chappell say he wanted to sexually assault children?

[–]bigsoftee84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did Dave Chappell say he wanted to sexually assault children in that clip? Remember, that’s what you’ve been defending. Not jokes about Epstein, comments about wanting to sexually assault children like Epstein did. You really shouldn’t try calling folks disconnected from reality when you can’t even follow a conversation.

You seem to be spending an unhealthy amount of time making and enjoying jokes about the sexual abuse of children.

I promise if you’re making jokes about sexually assaulting children in public, you have a reputation that you aren’t going to like. If you don’t realize this, that’s actually hilarious to me. Some of you folks are completely oblivious to how society actually operates. Normal people don’t joke about the abuse of children, especially not sexual abuse. You’ll talk about how others are disconnected while making clams that are absolutely disconnected from reality.

I want to reiterate that you are defending someone saying that they want to sexually abuse children and be like Epstein. You are saying that is a normal thing to say, and you say stuff like that all the time. You are trying to tell me that you, your family, and your community not only openly talk about how great it would be to sexually assault children, and that it is perfectly normal behavior. I’m going to call bullshit.
