  • I'm not sure it was ever bunked if I'm honest.

    His dog yelped while Hasan's hands were off screen? That's a homeopathic level of evidence.

  • He streamed last night on YouTube. Supposedly it peaked at 150k viewers.

    I personally saw it hit 100k but I dipped in and out.

    And when he turned on super chats he probably made a few thousand dollars in the first 3 minutes. I've never seen anything like it.

  • I think it was a threat that next time it will be acid.

    Vinegar is probably the most famous kind of acid.

  • When it's related to groceries it's actually called a steak-out.

  • If people aren't adopting it, it's not a boom.

    It's an investment boom.

  • The fact that they said "leftists" instead of "liberals" made me think they weren't a right-winger.

    Even liberals call most leftists liberals...

    I got more context from the thread.

  • More reasonable than who?

    The older parties might be done with for now. Labour and Conservative.

    SNP isn't that extreme. It's actually very very popular in Scotland.

    I guess if that part of the problem with calling things extreme is that if you're extremely far from centre yourself, the centrists sound extreme. So it's a little hard to answer your question.

    The 'challenger' parties like Green, "Your Party" and Reform are very popular, especially with the young and the poor.

    I think a lot of people expect them to take a lot of local seats and councils in the next few years.

    And while Reform has been dragging Labour to the right (with not a lot of protest from Kier, I think), some of these new leftist parties will hopefully drag him back to at least the centre. Just though influencing the soulless polling he seems to use to decide what he cares about in any given month.

  • I think the idea is that it's practice, but also a warning shot.

  • Well short of a coup or government collapse/dissolution, we've got to wait for an election.

    We've got to hope Polanski and Sultana have got their feet underneath them by then.

  • How's that policy of appeasement and boot-licking going now, Kier?

    Starmer really thought that being a doormat for the playground bully meant he would get to keep his lunch money.

  • That does lend some credence to the idea that it's just there to make the gun bigger.

    Presumably the aim is that the gun doesn't even get pointed at anyone, let alone fired.

  • I suspect it's for intimidation.

    "Tacti-cool" gear.

    But he said he wanted to have a bigger gun than the other guy, and this is a great way to do it.

    I just did a quick Google and didn't find any instances of Black Panthers ever opening fire on cops.

    Obviously that's barely research but it's good odds that it happened few enough times that it will take more more than 30s to find.

    To be clear, I'm on their side. I think adding peripherals to the guns to make them more intimidating is the exact kind of thing that will work on bullies.

    I just was entertained by it all. Getting down to the level of "big gun scarier than small gun" because they're trying to communicate to really dumb, macho assholes.

  • It's the only way to deal with bullies.

    Show them a potential consequence.

  • It's nice of him to put the massive suppressor on it.

    To help with the noise pollution.

  • We should stop saying detained or arrested if the agents fail to identify themselves properly.

    Grabbed is the lightweight but accurate one.

    Snatched, kidnapped, abducted all fit.

  • Oh they'll activate for sure if you ask for left-of-center policies.

  • "Apolitical"
