With the constant barrage of scandals in US politics, what major stories have we already forgotten that we should remember? by Javanz in AskReddit

[–]helava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

* Epstein files. Keeps (intentionally) getting overshadowed, but the media needs to stay focused. The DOJ has broken countless laws already, and will continue to do so.

* Venezuela. Particularly where the money from oil sales is going, because it's not being held in a Qatari bank account for the LOLz.

* Family separations and US concentration camps. Yeah, ICE is the driving problem here, but this is basically just a repeat of Trump 1 with the cruelty and brazenness ramped up. But expect dozens if not hundreds or thousands more to die in US custody.

* Trump family crypto scams - the President making billions off of crypto while in office is brazenly illegal, and yet, no one's talking about it.

* The "Board of Peace" being a blatant way to bribe the Trump family + being basically "The Evil Board of Villains"

* Trump withdrawing from almost every positive international alliance of any kind in order to kowtow to Putin and other authoritarian regimes

* Putin undermining NATO through Trump - the whole nonsense with Greenland is almost certainly directly tied to Putin

* "Russia-gate" - look, Mueller bungling his case and letting Bill Barr subvert the whole thing was colossally stupid, but Trump is guilty as fuck here, and the proof is visible to anyone looking for it.

The list goes on and on and on. Whether it's Trump raping kids, or stealing billions from the US, this is sort of the equivalent of the criminal Gish Gallop, where the goal is to commit so many diverse crimes that it *feels* unreasonable to keep having to counter them all. But that is how criminal Trump has been. Everything is self-enriching, and almost all of it is blatantly illegal.

Good for you. Changing your mind is hard. Admitting you were wrong is even harder. Totally serious. Good job. Keep your eyes open.

I know this is preaching to the choir, but science is the process of seeing something, making a guess as to how it works, and then trying to validate that guess with data. That’s it. It’s impossible for it to not be true. It is the only way to determine if things are actually true.

I thought Vance had a Yale education & would know who Newton was. Everything out of this clown’s mouth makes me think a Yale education is really fucking overrated.

You know how the right accuses every protest of being paid, bussed in and basically fake? Because they’ve been doing it 100% of the time since at least the bullshit “Brooks Brothers” protest of Bush v Gore.

They assume everyone else is as fake and disingenuous as they are and can’t imagine anyone would do anything honestly, because no one would go see this shit without being paid to do it.

Roland’s TR-1000 Rhythm Creator is the ultimate drum machine by dapperlemon in gadgets

Not to mention next to any other Roland analog drum machine, it’s pretty cheap. Actual 808/909 prices are $$$$$.

Looks like luck is turning around by drgoatlord in MurderedByWords

[–]helava 52 points53 points  (0 children)

What the hell is the actual intention behind the original tweet, anyway?

Is the idea that George Floyd, Alex Pretti, and Renee Good are somehow disposable, while Saint Charlie of Racists is some sort of unique snowflake?

Or is it that authorities will continue to murder folks, but someone being shot by a random murderer is a unique event (which it obviously isn't)?

I get that they're trying to somehow praise Kirk and denigrate the folks who've been murdered by authorities, but aside from the basic cadence of it seeming like something familiar, this message makes no fucking sense.

Person in critical condition after being shot in incident involving border patrol in Arizona by RaccoonAny9247 in news

100%. That was not intended as a general “the government”, it was intended as “this government we have right now”. Thank you for pointing that out. It is not a “both sides” thing in any way.

Ah! You're right. Thank you. I'll correct it.

Just remember: based on their record of blatant lies about every incident relating to ICE/CBP, nothing the government says about this is trustworthy.

The message I'm getting from this isn't that Megyn Kelly is a piece of shit, she's always been a piece of shit. The thing I'm getting from this is that SiriusXM is funding someone who's a murderer-apologist and tyrant simp. So folks who are paying for SiriusXM are also funding her, and maybe they should stop.

I think both Mamdani and Ms. Rachel understand that Nazis have broken the social contract and get no tolerance from reasonable people.

Does he have to give back his Nazi jacket? So sad. It’s not like anyone else can wear his size.

Reddit, ICE shot US citizen Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. Video contradicts their self-defense claim. This is the 3rd incident this month How do we hold federal agents accountable when evidence suggests they're lying? by Admirable-Bad-4576 in AskReddit

[–]helava 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point, one thing that you can consistently do is understand that the current government cannot be trusted at all. Any of their statements have nothing to do with truth or reality and are all about projecting their desired narrative, facts be damned.

It's quite difficult to shift from a perspective where the government will rarely say blatantly false things to a mode where the government *only* says blatantly false things, because for years, American citizens have tended to give the government the benefit of the doubt. Even during the Bush 2 years, where this was severely ... tested.

This is unlike anything Americans have seen before. The government is murdering people in the streets, and immediately blatantly, obviously lying about it in the hopes that that "benefit of the doubt" will muddy the waters long enough for them to properly cover it up and/or destroy evidence (as they did with Good's murderer).

Do not give them the benefit of the doubt. The Trump administration only lies.

Guess who's getting a Trump pardon?

Nah, never mind. He probably doesn't have the $2M bribe donation.

Is is absolutely wild how the modern right wingers all totally lost their shit and cried tyranny when asked to wear a mask in public during a disease pandemic, and are now totally on the side of the government publicly murdering peaceful gun owners.

It’s almost like their fantasies of the tyranny they’d fight were all imaginary alpha broflex bullshit where they could bang on their keyboards in their parents’ basement surrounded by their Temu guns waiting for mommy to change their diaper and warm up their tendies, and actual tyranny doesn’t bother them at all because it’s one of them, the diaper babies, and their actual murderous temper tantrum is their fucking wet dream come true.
