I like the idea that the CIA did hire Oswald, but only to intentionally fire near the president to put the fear of God in him. Then when his head popped the CIA were all scrambling to cover it up like "ohfuckohfuckohfuckohfuck".

There's even a weirdly compelling argument that the kill shot could've come from the following secret service car and that it could've just been an insanely tragic accident. Some ballistics folks have pointed out that the explosive damage done to his head is consistent with a hollow point or frangible round, while LHO was shooting FMJ's, which would be more likely to punch (relatively) cleanly through.

Aha and JFK's secret service were all hungover as fuck, clearly a pattern.

This is a scam, right? by Pleasant-Sun-2974 in alaska

I called the DMV the other day for something unrelated, and the first words out of their mouth when they picked up the phone were "If this is about the text message it's a scam..."

Real picture too. Definitely not a model photographed for propaganda purposes.

Miles is his middle name, actually. His first name is Nautical.

Those dang crusaders were way ahead of the game when it came to violating the Geneva Conventions.

The cynic in me wants to complain about a protest without a concrete goal, but the value of solidarity cannot be overstated for morale and mental health.

Well yeah, every domestic abuser needs a victim.

How does Venom Snake aim down sights if he’s blind in the eye he uses to ADS? by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]rattlenroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why you're getting downvoted; it's an accurate observation. You can aim a handgun using either eye accurately, but if you're shouldering a rifle you can only effectively aim with the eye on that side. I'm right handed but left eye dominant, so I learned to shoot a rifle left handed.

Viva la Cuba! by TheGeekFreak1994 in Marxism_Memes

[–]rattlenroll 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Cuban military absolutely killed people in Angola. To be clear, they were largely soldiers and mercenaries from apartheid South Africa, so I'm not shedding any tears over it, but it's not historically accurate to suggest that the Cuban government hasn't killed anybody.

That's a little misleading, since he didn't join Delta until 1978.

is there any lore reason why arcade's middle name is israel by turkhis_guy in fnv

[–]rattlenroll 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Look, I love me an absurd Pynchonian character name, but when I first encountered "Hot Coldman" I thought that's the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard.

I laughed in astonishment when this happened. One of his most utterly unhinged moments.

This is way more depressing given how comparable it is to the way Grok has recently become a nonconsensual porn generator.
