  1. El Topo. It was weird, I liked it but not too much.
  2. Starbucks is so bad a free cup is more like a punishment.
  3. I was wondering if ktchong's videos, the muller audiobook, and Gromnir's legal lecture combined to give me a stroke but instead it just looks like they changed the forum. Anyways that militia that was detaining immigrants on the border had their leader arrested, apparently the feds knew he had some illegal weapons for about a year and a half but decided to do something only after he got noticed for playing cowboy.
  4. Careful lest Volo calls you a literal Nazi. :> Since he even seems to call Mother Theresa a nazi that doesn't seem to mean much, does it? I'm sure I'm already a SJW Nazi because I think questioning taxes in general and assuming every politician to be evil is extremely silly. We are all Nazis now.
  5. Are steel beams one of them?
  6. Thanks. We haven't set a date or made any plans so right now it's just that things are more serious than moving in together. You routinely excuse and condone the use of power, often illegal by their own rules, by the state to crush so called "threats to the west" which ranges from informing people they are being illegally monitored or anything that may negatively impact profits. If such a position isn't fascism, it's a near relative that retains the totalitarian nature of fascism but with a more friendly coat of paint. She's got too much sense to post here and I'm not giving you info to snitch. Find someone else to stalk.
  7. I might have something, but my fiance is a Lebanese woman with some very strong opinions on certain issues and we are likely on a watch list. You didn't respond to my point. Snowden could show how innocent civilians got murdered by the US military. They face no charges for that, despite breaking the law. So why should Snowden?The state calls its own violence law, but that of the individual crime. Bruce will stan the former for eternity because behind the exterior of woke liberal he's a borderline fascist, and I'm being completely unironic.
  8. To risk the ire of the NSA*, I can't think of any event in recent history that didn't support doing that to the political class of every country and the top .1% who own everything. *How ya doin there bucko?
  9. Chicago Police set him up, it'll be revealed in 10 years and the movie will be released 5 years after that.
  10. I don't see anyone besides overly invested larpers claiming a civil war would be neatly split territory and conventional warfare. A closer model to what it would look like is the Syrian Civil War, where most major cities end up looking like the mysterious Aleppo. Logistics of insurrection aside, my point is that the US government has been engaging in heavy handed government oppression for at least a century now and that if there were a group willing and able to revolt over this we would have seen it happen a long time ago. If gun confiscation actually happens, and not just to the bad people like antifa and muslims, I'm willing to bet you see a few attacks from scattered patriots and more effort on electing politicans who promise to give the guns back (to the right people) from these supposed rebels.
  11. If that were the case we'd have seen it decades ago. More likely we'll see a few isolated attacks and a lot of grumbling by folks who swear they're gonna get their guys elected or a slightly higher percentage of the vote come next election.
  12. In practice the big losers would be the population of "swing states", which have dominated focus by virtue of being the only place in contest according to conventional wisdom. Big winner would be population dense urban areas, which would gain power regardless of state. The bigger states would get more attention, but you'd see stuff like Republicans going to California and New York or Democrats going to Texas that doesn't really happen at present. The small states with less than 5 votes in the EC would take a hit, but at present nobody gives a **** about them unless it's campaign season and they're an early primary or swing state anyways. Overall there probably would be less of an impact on the results of presidential elections and just a change of how candidates go about campaigning, if anything we might see an increase in outside parties because a shift in perception of how votes matter but I doubt it would be anything like the Green Party or Libertarian Party grabbing more than 10% of the popular vote.
  13. Whatever happened to wod? Did the masses of stalinists get angry with him blowing their cover and disappear him? Or did he go to r/thedonald and /pol/ to hang with the true believers?
  14. So I guess Obsidian managed to get screwed by a publisher even after getting bought by Microsoft. Huh, guess the curse is real. I don't know anything about Epic Games (stuff itt sounds bad), but I'll wait for GoG or Steam because I don't want another platform to keep track of and want the game patched and cheap anyways.
  15. Average rent here in Texas is over 1k a month and minimum wage is $7.25 an hour. Assuming you worked 40 hours a week and a roommate able to pay half, you'd be looking at half your before tax income going to rent. If you made twice minimum wage and pulled 40 hours a week, and many college students or young'uns do not, you're still looking at a quarter of your before tax income going to your rent. So yeah, it's an issue with purchasing power and high rents. Rather than building new housing the focus should be on reducing the cost of existing housing and increasing wages if you want to help those struggling to afford shelter. That or landlords and employers are going to find a very angry crowd chasing them down the street.
  16. Well off baby boomers in the suburbs and well off yuppies in town.
  17. You'd think for people who hate the government so much they'd be better at avoiding it.
  18. No, it sort of comes with the territory of managing the state. Probably the only people in American national office who aren't rich just got their and will likely be rich in a few years. Something something class positioning. Anyways Bernie is ok but Yang wants to give me 1000 bucks a month and make Bezos pay for it so he's got my critical support, if only so the boomers have heart attacks. Sounds like an argument for all power to local workers' councils.
  19. Hold on here, the protestants here in Texas would gladly do the same with the reasoning "just put it up for adoption lol". All sides of the cross are **** fam.
  20. Trump is a billionaire and a politician, ain't **** gonna happen to him unless the US decides to invade itself.
  21. And I thought Ted Cruz tweeting his porn was weird.
  22. Given the...interesting history of the Chicago Police Department I'm going to wait some time before I believe them. Anyways here's a guy who planned some hate crimes but got stopped. https://www.npr.org/2019/02/20/696470366/arrested-coast-guard-officer-planned-mass-terrorist-attack-on-a-scale-rarely-see
  23. And here I thought I couldn't think less of Tucker.
