The best part of living in a Japanese apartment regardless of the size or amenities is the fact that there are no real "bad neighborhoods". No matter how low in price you go. Yeah there's punks who look mean and act generally annoying at night, but it's not dangerous like neighborhoods in America. There's no "wrong side of the tracks" where you'll get beat on like Kiryuu because you stepped on the wrong turf or looked at someone the wrong way. It can happen but it's rare. In America if you want to live cheap - and you live in the city - you're just gonna have to expect violence. We all know why.
I meant a plan b for the white hats, as in machinations going on behind the scenes to take down the enemies without setting off the nuke, but you're right that applies to the other side too. I generally assume the bad dudes are like Sith Lords and have multiple layers of xanatos gambits to handle any contingency. (just like my heckin space wizards movie!) Let's hope you're right, although it doesn't matter if we don't even use our bombs in the first place.
"A list" isn't legitimate blackmail material. Anyone could write anything on a list. The video evidence is the compromat. Whoever has the evidence knows who is on the metaphorical "list". They don't need a little black book kept in a safe.
but also elites that believe they can do this with ZERO consequences
It's that second part that concerns me the most. Yes, I feel for the children who were victimized, but releasing the "epstein files" won't help them now. I'm more concerned about the fact that America - if not the entire world - is basically enslaved to Israel or whomever because of blackmail compromat. And the elites will continue to engage in degenerate criminal behavior while normal citizens are prosecuted for software piracy or tax evasion. That is unacceptable. Anyone who allows this will face the wrath of God. There had better be a Plan B.
It's interesting to contrast some of the "rights" law abiding citizens still have in Japan compared to us.
-
There are lawsuits around the edges but by and large it's still ok for a business to say "NO GAIJIN" "NO RUSSIANS" etc. The media will attack you over it but most people don't care. If the shop owner put the sign up obviously he knows best what his customers what. Not in America - that's a civil rights violation. THAT'S RACIST!

The Japanese were their usual conformist selves during COVID, diligently following all the rules and closing down non-essential businesses - except for various pachinko box and karaoke stores. (mostly owned by Korean immigrants) The local governments tried their hardest to tell people not to visit these businesses, put signs on their doors, and had the media doing their dirty work naming and shaming them for not closing. The businesses stayed open. Police couldn't do anything about it. In America the governor will personally have his police thugs shut your gym down and board it up. "Just doin my job sir, step aside or I'll have to arrest you, just doin my job."

In Japan the police cannot enter your home without permission or a warrant without there being obvious evidence of a crime or in an emergency. Don't we have the same right in America? Not really... the idea of getting SWATed because some random person called a tip doesn't make sense there. Police might show up to check it out, but if the home owner peeks through the door and says "Nah I'm fine", they have to go. Not to say they won't try to convince the person to let them in - and most Japanese would comply - but if you stay firm there is absolutely nothing they can do about it. Naturally if they do come in they will have to take their shoes off on entry.
Not making a weeb "Japan is better" point, it's just fun noticing what's the same and what's different and why.
By "attack" I meant what you and RoulerBleu said. Be hostile, be racist, call them names, ban them from your business, and make their life uncomfortable until they leave. For fellow Japanese, shame them, refuse to associate with them, and treat them with disrespect as you would a traitor.
Not enough to attack the invaders. Need to go after the media presenting them in a sympathetic light, the local non-profits colluding with them to set up these "press conferences" and give free legal advice, and ultimately the businesses and international NGO's pushing the issue in the first place. They are the real enemies. The migrants are their weapons.
only a tiny fraction of software pirates would have purchased the game
This is the big one I've always tried to point out. There's no reason to think someone who downloaded a free game would have also purchased the game if the free download wasn't available. That's basic economics.
Why does Bondi go along with it, or not try to defend her rep here?
I sure hope there's a Plan B.
Is Trump himself implicated? I don't think so because he consistently pushed Epstein for years, unprompted. To push for the disclosure of himself as a child molester as some kind of power gambit, even as a bluff, would be the most insane thing anyone has done in politics.
Yes based on everything that's happened in the past decade I find that even less likely than the zogbot Manchurian candidate angle. Either way I don't think it could possibly be something as simple as "oh boy he's on the list guys!"
there are a lot more of the “throw them all out” people in our government than many people on the .win sites give credit for,
Don't give us hope like that. LFG!
anyone who isn’t white
It wouldn't be "isn't white" even in the worst case here. It would be people that look sound and act like foreigners. Your typical urban youf ain't getting deported by ICE, they know he's from the hood.

I don't buy it. What is the source of this? Why would there just be a random list of names somewhere? What are they alleged to have done? A ton of people went to Little St James. That's already noted on the flight logs. Doesn't mean they were clients of his underaged prostitution ring.
Why is everyone else in the admin helping him cover it up? Did they pee on whoever too, or were they Mossad assets all along? At this point I can't totally rule out the "Trump was Jeff's best customer" angle but with the way everything has played out over the last 12 years that seems even less likely to me than the interdimensional 4D chess option, or that Kash and Bongino have a sting going down. Or even more likely, someone has threatened very dangerous consequences to America and these peoples families, and this country is owned.
Concentrating all the angry refugees in one place not so far away doesn't seem like the best idea for Israel. They'd probably rather spread them around the world, in small numbers here and there. A diaspora, if you will.

BeamNG is a member of @videogames_EU. VGE didn't ask BeamNG concerning their response to https://stopkillinggames.com. As far i know there wasn't a vote on this too. We do NOT agree with their statement, this is not how a representative group should be behaving.
The "don't stand on the toilet" ones are even common in big cities in Japan. I saw one posted by the health department in the bathroom of an Indian restaurant.
