It’s almost like there are those who benefit from large numbers of people being poor and in a constant state of financial crisis, and those people have some sway over public curriculum.

The US never wanted a “good member of the family of nations” out of Iran or anywhere else we fucked up. We wanted to keep resource-rich nations in the dirt so they could not collectively bargain against our corporate interest, and they did not care how many people got butchered along the way.
You only have to look at the absolute sons of bitches we’ve armed and bankrolled over the years to know our crusade against socialism was never about freedom or dignity.


We try to hold them to higher standards of conduct, and they gripe and rage and abuse and kill us for it. They strongarm our courts and our laws making sure their murderous boys’ club isn’t interfered with.


We’re not truly there yet I think, but there will be a point where naive dissidents simply “go with the agents” out of sense of civility, and they are never seen again. Often not even the records seized after the fascists’ downfall shed any light on their fate.


Declare AIPAC a foreign agent just like their predecessor, then arrest and imprison all of their employees for aiding and abetting a terrorist organization.


If they aren’t already arresting people at the border for doing this or being suspected of doing this, then it’s coming, and soon.


It almost certainly has to do with the fact that he is 16, where there are legal limits to what can be disclosed, at least by the police.


They’ve been taking notes for a while. The change they’ve decided on is building fortresses for themselves in remote locations, not pursuing social change that would allow even a single coin to slip through their claws.


Nazis giving themselves TBIs might be a good thing, or it might just make them more unstable.
Hand to hand combat just isn’t all that relevant when AR-15s are available to anyone for $400.


ACAB but sheriff’s offices are probably some of the worst. They seem to have the lowest qualifications for entry and a real hillbilly mentality. I’m sure offices like this bury people in the back 9 that never get discovered.


We need an assumed and exclusive right to our own likenesses and fast.


Remember, the rule “don’t let them take you to a second location” applies to government kidnappers as well.


Downvoting not because of the celebration of death, but because of the assertion that they are traitors.
They are categorically not traitors. They are following orders from a military headed by a democratically-elected government. To disobey those orders, let alone turn their weapons against our government would be treason.
Traitors to humanity and decency, yes. But not to the United States. Racism, empire, and brutality are not “UnAmerican.” To pretend that this isn’t what we are is a pointless, false platitude grounded in propaganda that we’ve been fed since we were children. If Americans want to be better, then we need to undergo complete transformation, not just course correction. And part of that has to be letting go of these warped, atrophied feelings of patriotism for an ideal that doesn’t and largely has never existed.
There is no dignity in serving the military of a dying, amoral empire. Negative dignity, in fact.
MP’s looking to enforce a draft will need to wear flak vests. The whole thing, including the bits and bobs that infantrymen typically throw away to save weight.


Whenever someone says they had a moderator action taken against them, I am suspicious. Some mod teams are notorious, sure, but it’s almost always a case of unreliable narration.
I imagine behavior like the allcaps reply above had something to do with it.


Terminal ballistics is basically chaos theory at work. Rifle rounds aren’t packed with explosives, they can leave relatively clean exits regardless of how much ass they have behind them. The round might have only traveled through a few inches of flesh which isn’t really enough to destabilize a round like that.
The going theory, one they have on video, mind, is that he stuffed the rifle down his pants while he scrambled off the roof, no disassembly. He hobbled to the treeline and disposed of it.
This is “the Las Vegas shooting was done by multiple CIA operatives with belt-fed machine guns to force a gun ban” levels of analysis. There’s a plausible explanation, but it’s more convenient for some people’s political biases to believe in a conspiracy.


I’m wondering about how they’re going to get them there in the first place. Both landing craft and rotorcraft are going to be very vulnerable if our air power can’t silence Iranian fire (which is seemingly the whole reason why this is “necessary”).


We have the larval stages of terror groups, but they’re no Al-Qaeda, Taliban, ISIS, Boko Haram, etc. The ideology is there, the following is there, it just needs a societal shift for the worse to be able to fester.
25th amendment, impeachment, more kinetic solutions…get this fat fuck out of power NOW before he kills us all.
