Man, there was an example that was actually done by history, right there for you
“The blacks clearly have natural physical advantages over white people. They have had hundreds of years of breeding for strength, and endurance, from selective buck breeding of the slave holders. They have no place playing baseball with with white men.”
Yeah, the only places I commonly see, where the urinals do not have partitions that block the view of other people, in the bathrooms seems to be old places that refuse to get rid of their trough urinal, bars (though this often because they have bathrooms not meant for multiple people, and large bars/clubs have largely moved on), and arenas that have walls with dozens of them. The last one is likely being cheap.
“We just got robbed by a man in this car, who looks like this”
“Oh, a man in a car that looks just like that, just pulled in, better lock the doors”
Something pushed Dale Gribble over the edge, he is grabbing cash, and getting ready to go off grid
remember, even the Nazis found safe havens for their wealth. So, if we don’t get a neo-nuremberg trial, I have little doubt their money will be safe somewhere. Even if they do, the places that stashed it will just enrich themselves with it.
I never said they didn’t take control, and they are radicals, I hear that descriptor attached to them all the time. Also, this specific unit was something I used to show that Australia has long term weapons sales desires with an apartheid state. When a government takes foreign aid, rather than distribute it, it is often said that they appropriated it, or stole it, or high-jacked it, whatever. Even beyond that, it wasn’t actual weapons, literally anything can be used as a weapon, so we either say literally everything going to a place is a weapons sales/trade/donation, or we reserve that name for things built specifically to be weapons.
Also, do not gloss over how colonized people often end up having to rely on radical elements of their population to fight against the colonizers. Do not gloss over the maneuvers bibi, and the israeli government, performed to make sure hamas stays in power, because they use them as a PR shield, like their soldiers record themselves using palestinians as bullet shields. Israel is the colonizing force here, the terrorist guerrilla government of hamas is a result of reaction to this colonization.
Eh, I will believe it when I see it. If this situation were to occur, I predict you would see a lot of bluster, and wind, blowing smoke around, about this, mean time the banks are all just doing their thing, making money, dealing with whoever.
I mean, it is a nice looking little piece to decorate your desk, plus some utility with it, but $700? Meh, maybe if it was just premium product, rather than a 1 of 50 collectable, and like $100 more expensive than a normal drive for the fancy adds.
Of course this action was a bid for power. Did people really think he was just going wipe out the gangs, and then relinquish all the extra powers he claimed to do so, because he really wanted to help people from crime, deep in his heart?
While that is true, and the absolute apex of oligarchy is ex-kgb, and the head of the mafia, there were a lot of elite, that had lots of, previously illegal, financial stuff going on abroad, and had many professional, and diplomatic contacts formed from years of working with other countries. They also swooped in and bought up massive stocks from people who didn’t really understand their value, in the worst of the instability, but did so more from afar, until things started to calm a bit, then they moved back in, and started operating at home.
I mean, that is true. Also what is true is that these people will be the ones who determine wealth afterwards, and those who help can still come out on the other end in a class they were previously below. There are a lot of people out there that will just go with it. Even trained combat forces. Because they are so internally structured to accept hierarchy. This isn’t like a nuclear war wiping out most of humanity type collapse. This will be more like a USSR collapse. Those who know how the greater system works internationally, and who already had resources to invest in the turnover, now are the top dogs. It was people who were already elites, the highest order of the international mafia, and the higher echelon of the security/intelligence forces, like the KGB (though, I guess those qualify as elites), are the oligarchs over russia today.
I ultimately hope this doesn’t happen, but if it does, I would enjoy seeing their PMCs turn on therm. However I also fear the resulting warlord system, or unified martial state, that could come of that, possibly more.
Selling weapons to a military you are aware is in the long process of violently persecuting millions of people, in their country, with those weapons, is not the same as providing non-weapons to the persecuted, and having radicals fighting against the colonizing force appropriating them. This is a bad faith argument.
correct, to a point. most of the time they will only kick people for expressing extreme and highly intolerant views, or for fighting in their server over it, but theoretically they could just kick anyone who talks about any topic they don’t like under that guise. Now take this position, vague laws allowing for power abuse, power abuse is awarding to many people on its own, especially those drawn to positions of authority, then add to it training regimen that teach these practices, periodic seminars to reinforce the practice, personal profit motive to enforce this practice, and a societal structure that pressures them to do so. This is machine for shaking down the general public under color of law.
academic discussion about sexuality with no context
There are many, many, places all over the US that basically fund their local government by pulling over people who don’t live there, and fining them. They absolutely abuse their authority to do this. There are so many infractions, many very vaguely worded, and broad, the cops can basically pull over anyone, just because they want to, and they do. There are also plenty of people out there with long standing video evidence of being harassed by the police, because the cops don’t like legal things they do, or don’t like their families.
If you think this is the end of these programs, prepare to be wrong.
The reasons are individual and vary greatly. A lot of them were actually badly abused by their mothers. Their mother has narcissism, or some other personality disorder, and they were raised in an environment that, though they were abused, they internalized it, and believed their mother when she said it was their fault. So they, very deeply, want nothing more than the approval of their mother/family in general. Even when they consciously know this is the reality of their situation it still doesn’t change their desires, and they develop defensive tendencies towards their abuser. In more recent times the demographics of correctional facilities have been changing. White women, who are from much more wealthy, than normal, backgrounds, are the fastest growing demographic in the US penal system. The vast majority of their convictions are possession, or crimes surrounding drug use. Possession, prostitution, theft, and fraud are the big ones. A good number of these women actually had good parents, and home lives. Their reasons for falling into the desperation that leads to drug use are more external, and systemic, than what was most common in times past.
Point being, there is no one factor that holds the most weight for this type of thinking. I could be here for hours discussing demographics, programs, approaches, outcomes, recidivism rates, etc. as my primary job was data analysis for what was called the offender management system (OMS). I don’t have it in me right now.
Oh, I didn’t assume your mom was like that. There is fffaaaarrrr less vile shit that would qualify for no contact. When you are in the corrections system, you just begin to see more common terrible things as “normal”, and only the really, truly, fucked up shit stands out. So this is the story I remember, because it was so fucked every jaded, dead inside, asshole, working at the jail was talking about it.
Well, they could stop sending weapons to israel, instead of just denying that they do.

The vast majority of people who don’t vote are not anti-electorialist, they are just apathetic/lazy
I mean, I get your point, but you can pay for an ad that looks just like a google search result to be on the top of certain searches. This will often result in the ad link being the top result in the actual rankings. This is usually what people mean when they shit like this, and paying to be at the top of google search results.
