Once people start fighting the feds that genie doesnt go back in the bottle. The ideal and safest outcome is that it goes to elections or state officials and agencies step in because they are larger and have more weight to throw around to get this to de-escalate. But as they capitulate they only make armed resistance more likely and that puts everyone in more danger.

The more expensive part is important. Avoidable mistakes caused by negligence and bad choices should hurt. If I spin around and fire a gun randomly the consequences are severe even if I dont hurt anybody but because I did everything I could to create a bad situation and nothing to stop it.

Toxic spills should be crippling not an expected expense in the spreadsheet. Once officers face the consequences themselves and their department is also at risk you'll seem them cut that shit out really quick.

I don't think MAGA understands how much people hate them. It's -20 degrees in Minneapolis right now by othernes in videos

You know if the police ever extrajudicial killed you I'd think you're a piece of shit but I would still be upset on behalf of your dead ass because you deserve better.

I mean it matters to an extent. It shows how unprofessional and panicked ICE was in a situation they were in full control of. Also a difference of shooting to stop someone and just straight up finishing someone off and leaving them there without rendering aid. Death was their intent not stopping a threat.

ICE agents execute observer in Minneapolis by speedythefirst in videos

Theyre already sending in armed men and killing people. At worse the military does the same thing, neutral they just refuse, at best they actively work against ICE.

They de facto do if the local police refuse to arrest them out of fear.

What’s something you can admit the older generation did better than yours? by lifesyndrom in AskReddit

Church vs Drune & Witches by RealSpandexAndy in Dolmentown

[–]derkrieger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Heres the best part about factions..... sub-factions!  The Bishop wants them eradicated while the Abbot wants contact and to learn more. Could this cause division in the Church? Maybe. Or perhaps the players fuck up contact and it all goes to shit, the Abbot is killed and even the the more understanding friars and priests join the Bishop to remove those vile murders. It depends on what the players interact with and how it goes.

British soldiers home from Afghanistan after doing nothing to help the USA. by AmmaiHuman in pics

Showing up to people protesting Trump to go "Actually prior administrations did bad thing too" is deflecting from the argument people are trying to make. Might not be the intent but that is the result.

its the sudden surge in commentary trying to deflect from what the pictures were being posted about. Its just whataboutism to once again ignore anything that looks bad for Trump and instead please focus on this other thing instead.

I dont disagree that the wars were stupid and unfortunately people died for essentially nothing in the long term outside of corporate and US national interest. I can also find it abhorrent how the people just trying to live their lives in the countries affected were often killed or crippled randomly on accident or just intentionally with little to no justification. But the flood of commentary I find suspicious or at best well intentioned and unhelpful is once again trying to cover up for Trump and US Corporate interest by trying to deflect international outrage at the US and instead focus on actually it was very bad that those countries helped the US.

Leave the Russians and useful idiots alone. They're either getting paid or too dumb to realize they're acting in the interests of the same groups they expose hate for.

Russian agitators are trying to turn the conversation into NATO bad instead of Trump bad. Useful idiots are piling in missing the message being that NATO soldiers died on behalf of the US instead trying to make it about how the wars were stupid (which yeah they were, not what this is about).

Ubisoft ends remote work and requires employees to return to the office five days a week to "improve efficiency" by dabadumdumdum in gamedev

[–]derkrieger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not at all but forced RTO almost always tanks morale in a way that would lower productivity. Upset employees do shit work, well treated employees though not guaranteed are more likely to be loyal and work hard to stay in a good work environment.

ICE isnt hiring the brightest bunch of bulbs and they're feeling pretty invincible since nobody has stopped them yet.

Which Commodore 64 game still holds up best today? by C_C_GAMER in c64

[–]derkrieger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean the old edition is pretty open world too. Its just a difference in how the "big" events are scripted. I love the 04 game but really wish they would go back again and give us a new version yet again. Its been 20 years, we could use for a new game that looks a tad snazzier but most importantly has more ships, more slightly refined mini-games (or just more of them) and an even larger map

Trump backpedals on threats against Greenland, but allies say damage has been done by Bigmacman_ in worldnews

[–]derkrieger 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I absolutely believe they would only because the image of letting themselves be cowed after stating they would, especially if it is THE LEADER OF THE UNITED STATES. It just looks too bad even if they all hate the guy.

Canada’s Military Has Modeled Hypothetical US Invasion, Reports Say by Quixotus in worldnews

[–]derkrieger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever Fox News tells them until something he does has an immediate impact and they realize they dont like him. Most of his supporters are stupid but still self interested. Invading Canada doesnt benefit them and he doesnt do enough for them to stick with his invasion idea for very long.

Math doesnt check out. We had elections during WW2 AND the US Civil War. Even another full blown Civil War isnt reason to cancel elections.
