    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    There's so much to unpack here. Let's start with the Trump part. Not only is that description the exact polar opposite of everything Trump is and has ever been, most of it seems to have stemmed entirely from the author's own head. In all Trump's years of lying about his accomplishments, I don't...

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    I still think he should have forfeited his right to even have a podcast anymore, freedom of the press be damned, but being forced to sell off his studio and equipment will do a lot to kill his platform. Hopefully he also has to sell his home and ends up freezing to death under a bridge somewhere.

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    I haven't been following the Boeing scandal too closely, but hadn't the higher-ups there been trying to systematically cover up the problems with their planes? It'd be sadly ironic if it turned out what they were trying to stop us from finding out was that it was never their fault in the first...

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    I don't know if there's ever been a point in history where bananas haven't been essentially edible blood diamonds. Certainly not in my or my parents' lifetimes.

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I'm just about to the point where I'd rather get my news from randos on social media than any official "journalism" organization if this is the kind of bullshit they're going to let go to print.

    So I am making a video game.....

    Which, unless you use Linux, probably means buying a copy of Visual Studio or something.

    Mr. Beast would probably legit be a better president than any Republican who's held that office in my lifetime, and certainly any that would run in the foreseeable future.

    Sonic The Hedgehog

    I don't think anyone's going to dispute that. Sonic X's 4kids dub is how we ended up with Mike Pollock, among other things.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    Welp, might as well reciprocate. Like we needed an excuse at any point in the last ten years.

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    I must not be understanding this properly. Because if that's the new way we're classifying things, mammals are birds, and by extension also dinosaurs, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates. Which would mean whales really are fish after all!

    Sonic The Hedgehog

    You've basically summed up my relationship with all of YouTube in a nutshell. It's led to an awkward situation where I end up just blindly believing the opposite of whatever any video that looks like clickbait is trying to claim—which, if I'm honest with myself, is no less of an intellectually...

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    Hey while we're on the subject, what exactly was the basis for switching from "birds evolved from dinosaurs" to "birds literally ARE dinosaurs" anyway?

    Criminy, lady. 2014 Tumblr called; they think you're being a bit too much.

    OK but you did turn off frame interpolation, right?

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    I'm unironically shocked that this would even register as one of her more infamous moments. I don't even know who she is; I just saw "Fox News" and just assumed that dangerously unhinged and spouting misinformation is her default state.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    Well then I really don't understand what Putin is seeking to accomplish by threatening to give some of them to other countries that happen to be physically closer to us. Maybe he just thinks we're morons?

    Nothing about that Medium article suggested you can just fix someone's lack of an inner monologue through education, any more than you could cure Down Syndrome.

    Nobody has the intention to invade Ukraine

    On reflection, I think I might have overestimated what Russia can already do to us. I'd always just kind of taken it as a given that they have missiles capable of launching from somewhere within Russia and flying far enough to hit major US population centers, and that they've had such missiles...

    I know there are a lot of dumb people in the world, but I'm not sure I'm ready to write off fully 70% of the population as being mentally disabled to the point where they don't deserve rights.
