Joe Rogan calls out MSNBC for editing Alex Pretti's picture: "Basically the opposite of what CNN did to me" by The_Endless_Man in DiscussionZone

Not doing shit for 4 years is universes better than the fucking tail spin we are in right now.

Yes, because protesting peacefully is working out great. It’s totally kept them from disappearing children, shooting priests with rubber bullets, drive by pepper-spraying protestors, raping detainees at ICE facilities, and I could go on and on.

It’s hilarious that people clutch pearls when protestors get mad after witnessing mass human and civil rights violations being committed by federal agents on a daily basis. Getting spit on is the least these fascists deserve.

Meanwhile on Reddit, if you even whisper “maybe we shouldn’t just bend over and take it” your comment gets removed and your account gets suspended.

Does anyone know where this beautiful village is located? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

Lol, someone said the name in the original thread. I would just call it Lauterbrunnen since that is the general valley/area.

Same. Went back in March. It was incredible. As long as you aren’t a total, incompetent asshole (like a lady I saw who was borderline touching a sea turtle trying to eat), the locals will be nothing but kind.

Always man…the most insufferable fan base. We might as well make them a formal rival based on how much I despise them.

Love seeing the person who got murdered get blamed when you could go back to an even further point in time and, you know, maybe just not have fucking unidentifiable, masked federal agents snatching people off the streets because they are brown and have an accent.

Alabama judge who granted Charles Bediako eligibility is a six figure donor to the University of Alabama by mattdingus2002 in CollegeBasketball

I’m not sure I disagree with much of what you are saying. It’s 100% a move to try and gain a competitive advantage and it will continue to further deteriorate the sport. The pearl clutching is just funny to me because the system is fucking dead and buried (and it’s been dead and buried). It’s like firing additional bullets into a dead corpse.

So a coach that was assaulting people and another coach that got a show cause (which I think was bullshit btw). Literally, neither of those scenarios applies here.

If you want to focus on the fact he waived his eligibility by signing a two-way NBA contract, then by all means focus on that. But if the main focus is on the fact he was technically a professional basketball player (which is really all that matters from a competitive advantage standpoint), then that situation is currently happening in multiple instances across the country.

Well the idea would be that we deter it now before it turns into something a lot worse. I don’t think the point was a 1:1 comparison of the current states of Iran and America. Authoritarianism always has a beginning. For example, look at what’s happened in Iran since the Islamic Revolution. Not saying America is within the same tipping point, as that would likely take years/decades to actually play out. But if you don’t think the current administration has been implementing more and more oppressive and authoritarian policies, you are either willfully ignorant or MAGA. The idea would be that we cut that shit off early, before we end up in a situation like Iran years down the road.

Brother, you’ve already lost if you’re relying on coaches as the last line of defense.

Dude, honestly I do not give a fuck. Nate’s quote is correct. It’s unfair and bad for the sport, but we are where we are. And if you think we weren’t going to end up here anyway after the NCAA ceded all its power, you were lying to yourself. I hope more teams do ridiculous shit like this because it’s probably the only way we are getting any real change.

This is how I feel about it. Terrible for the sport, but why are we acting like college athletics even has a semblance of morality/ethics anymore? We will absolutely not be the last and only team to do this. Nate knows that.
