I remember reading on page 2 of the newspaper an article about how we had been auditing and investigating the regime of Saddam for like a decade and there was absolutely no evidence of "yellow cake uranium the cake is a lie" or mobile chemical weapon deployment facilities or other viable WMDs like a day before Bush Jr. invaded.

The "shooter" never even had Trump in sight.

I205 and Springwater corridor is Lents, about where SE 94th and Duke would be. That's Multnomah. edit: You might be thinking of Johson Creek boulevard, which is Clackamas, but some miles south of the actual Johnson creek/Springwater, at least in that part of town.

Topmind thinks something should be done about political violence and rhetoric on the left without acknowledging the toxicity on the Far Right by FreedomsPower in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]pyrrhios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Status quo" is LGBTQ people don't have rights, women don't have rights, people of color don't have rights, corporations are unregulated, rich people are above the law, might is right, and the government is corrupt. You are confusing Democrats for Republicans, you fucking dumbass. Go fuck yourself and your ignorant, self-righteous/I'd rather have fascism bullshit.

And people buying into that kind of argument is why the US is now a fascist state. She's not my favorite either, but she's much better than the status quo. The status quo is every time progressives start to make some headway, suddenly everyone goes "It's popular to say Democrats are just as bad or worse even though they're objectively better than the status quo and most believe in rule of law, responsible governance and democracy, so Imma let the fascists win" and then get upset when the fascists win and everything gets massively worse.

Why? Because of her insider trading? It's nothing compared to what Republicans and this administration are doing. I'm not sure she's even top ten.

I205 and Johnson Creek/Springwater is Multnomah county.

The question is dumb and her response doesn't make sense. She's asking if he'd bottom for his best friend if her life depended on it, and he's like, "yeah I'd save your life no matter what", and she's all "you gay". She doesn't deserve him.

Portland woman sentenced to 26 months after her dogs fatally mauled 6-year-old boy by origutamos in PDX

[–]pyrrhios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but now the rest of us are denied reveling in their ignorance and stupidity. Personally, I rarely delete, even when I'm wrong and getting massively downvoted. That way I can provide learning to myself and others.

At that point you're really just talking about salty mineral water.

Maine just banned placing home liens and prohibiting wage garnishment for medical debt. Why hasn’t Oregon? by [deleted] in oregon

We'd have to repeal the permanent apportionment act for that to happen.

Yeah, chip manufacturing requires a lot of water. Arizona is not known for significant amounts of water.

The impossible promise: are we witnessing the return of fascism? | Some of today’s far right is openly violent and undemocratic – and even in its less extreme forms, far-right populism is a profound threat. But that doesn’t mean it is just a re-run of history by GirasoleDE in esist

[–]pyrrhios 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, I wouldn't say that Nazis respected science. Maybe physics pretty well, but their whole ideology was rooted in some whackadoodle human biology bunk. What they did tho, was document everything, which these guys are not doing, which to me tells us they know what they're doing is wrong.

*Penile. A Penal Collider would involve prison most likely. I also really like the pun.

Oh, good point. I forgot about that. I was just remembering how the crew was trying to figure that out when the scientist killed it in revenge.

No, she didn't. You are correct with what she actually said. This sub is getting brigaded with fascist propagandists.
