/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

  • Chomsky being cultivated by Epstein really gives the game away.

  • Obviously in any society there are going to be people who hate their leaders and want them dead. The question is who do we give voice to? Who gets shown on our TVs and social media feeds, and who is silenced? That's what makes it propaganda.

    Also, is Libya better off after the imperialists killed Qaddafi? Is that what you want for Iran?

  • Time is a flat circle.

  • The fractal imagery definitely comes across as a trip.

  • But they don't even like these "jobs"

    You'd think they'd give their buddies bullshit jobs that were fun or something.

  • I don't know how or why capitalism ended up like this.

    What is even the incentive for bullshit work?

  • I got some red hibiscus+orange peel tea and I like it way more than I thought I would.

  • Revelation 13

    Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name. 2 Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. 3 And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. 4 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”

    5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. 6 Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. 8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

    9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

    Makes you think.

    Why do they talk like this?

  • They certainly don't benefit from expensive energy inputs.

  • That's what the price mechanism is for; if there's a shortage, just keep jacking up the price. 45% might be the beginning.

    Sure it'll collapse the economy, but for a short while it will generate incredible profits so who cares?

  • There has to be a limit to what Europeans will take, right? This is great news for US exporters who are selling LNG at a premium in Europe, yet Europeans just keep fucking taking it.

  • Maybe it'll split up, and there will be more Americas in 20 years!

  • Is this how people actually feel?

    I feel like February lasted all year.

  • Bodies are wrapped in a shroud of biodegradable material

    The powdered remains are given back to relatives in an urn.

    What's the point of the shroud being biodegradable if you're going to keep it in an urn?

    Actually, on second thought, they don't have to keep the remains in an urn. They can scatter them. Never mind lol

  • We already outsource parenting to the government when we send our kids to public school. We send children to complete strangers to be educated because we don't have time to do it ourselves.

    Are you opposed to school too?

  • It's not just a limited sample, it's a biased sample. That makes it worse than useless for gauging public opinion.

    You wouldn't keep contact with the kinds of people in Iran that respected and supported Khamenei; they wouldn't want to talk to you and you wouldn't want to talk to them. This is the equivalent of people who think Thing is popular because everyone in their social circle loves Thing, and thing Other Thing is unpopular because everyone they know hates Other Thing. Worse than useless.

  • """Friendly fire incident"""

  • Realistically we should be skeptical of anything being published in Reuters, but there are explanations for how embarrassing gossip can leak to the press. Leaks can come from disgruntled employees who are trying to embarrass their superiors, competing factions within the state looking to weaken their rivals, and even the occasional attack of good conscience that government workers can sometimes suffer when the contradictions are high enough.

    But, ultimately, we don't really know what's going on. Hope for the best, assume the worst, etc etc.

    A recent argument forced me to see that "genocide" has been turned into an imprecise word, and I don't know what to do about that?
