In this case I do think the black kid was going around stealing and got caught and tried provoking the kid to hit him based on the testimony of some of the people there and the general situation. With Tim though, I think he’s just trying to stick to the police report and how it’d be easy for someone in Texas to argue it was self defense. I mostly think Tim just didn’t look into this one very much. He’s got a kid now and is being more hands off, and dropped the ball.
People there from what I know did say the kid said “touch me and see what happens,” then “hit me and see what happens.” He was trying to get the victim to throw hands to make it self defense, but in Texas there’s a law that makes it an engagement at that point from what I read.
Even if none of that were true and that kid was just in their tent suspiciously when he had no business being there at all and refused to leave, that kid isn’t then allowed to stab the other guy in the chest to death.
I’ve talked to economists that suggested pretty much what this 4Chan thread said, but also that it’s not going that way. People didn’t dump money into bonds. Some bought stock on the dip. Most just kind of worried and sat on their money since it’s all very chaotic.
He’s doing the only non neoliberal policies we’ve had in most of our lifetimes.
H1B’s are basically modern indentured servants but from India. We don’t have a shortage of engineers or anything, just a shortage of ones willing to work for as low a wage as they give them, and that the folks running the hiring will allow, typically being of their own race, which is Indian.
In tech, if you get an Indian anywhere near hiring, pretty soon the whole company is only Indian and they fire everybody else. Then the output tanks because most don’t know what they’re doing. That’s what happened with things like AssCreed Shadows and a bunch of MS stuff. Shadows had 2 hours of credits filled with contract pajeets. It runs like shit and looks like crap and is actively poorly made compared to the other ones. On the MS end, they’re a revolving door of Indian contract workers that fuck everything up.
Trade deficit thing was supposed to be a way to get around the games China plays with false numbers and subsidies and currency manipulation and such. I don’t think it was a good metric but that was the intent.
The tariff for tariff thing makes sense. Trade deficit thing was a flawed way of getting around China asshoe’ing people. Good for negotiation though. Talk to a country and maybe if they export a bunch to us, they can agree to buy the energy they’re already buying, but from us, at a fair or equal price. China doesn’t want to negotiate though.
Hard to say how it’ll turn out with them. Everyone else mostly said “okay, let’s talk about it” and that was it.
Isn’t part of the point of all this that China had tariffs and played other games with us before all this? It isn’t them retaliating but the US.
They shot themselves in the foot claiming 100% of things Trump did for 8 years was bad. Now he could shoot and kill someone and if CNN covered it, no one would believe it.
Rewriting this story didn’t even make any sense. It’s not a feminist empowerment movie. Snow White won over the Dwarves by cooking and cleaning for them.
I don’t think it’d have bombed as hard because people would have gone opening weekend and had little reason to think it sucked going into it.
Probably not as big as you’d think given a lot of it’s Indian outsourcing. Part of the reason a lot of games suck now from big companies is they’re made by revolving doors of contractors that last 6 months, most of which are Indians.
I don’t think the author realizes that saying we did it in a way that nobody noticed also means they didn’t really accomplish much of anything.
Boomers also caused the student loan crisis by convincing everyone to go to college and get a degree in anything at all, even if they couldn’t afford it. It is an awkward dichotomy of them living off things their kids are paying for while also having shackled a lot of their kids with $150k+ in debt by the time they were 20.
My parents are great and approach literal saints, but Boomers as a demographic did fuck everyone and cause this mess. That’s why in Asian there are mass movements of younger people no longer supporting them or helping out. They were the first gen that had a higher standard than those before and after them.
Probably. And then they’ll use it to also justify their stupid anti piracy bullshit.
I know an illegal family where I live that did a bunch of health care scams like that. Slightest thing and they’re in the ER, and the mom brought her own mother out here to go in for super expensive surgery at our expense.
And until Elon found it, mostly peaceful.
I wasn’t going to buy it because it seemed like it was in development hell for years and they continually had nothing to show for it. Turns out that was because it went woke.
Realistically they made more money than they know what to do with, so I think they’ll still consider it worth it if they don’t go to jail. For all everybody did and lied about, they’re still walking away with hundreds of millions each for some of them, if not more.
Pandemic was Gamergate 2.0 for redpilling. Bunch of fake news caused people to actually look into things, who soon realized it was all made up and that their government actively hated them. Without Gamergate, might not have been a Trump. Without the pandemic, probably wouldn’t have been a Trump 2.0 where he’s just freeballing anything he wants to say or do.
I’m happy it still exists as a safeguard then. Digital distribution practices are a little silly.
Do they think they’ll be the first people to actually stop piracy? Most people don’t even do it anymore because it’s easier to just pay $5-10 a month or whatever it is now.
They say she filmed it. I’m assuming the film exists somewhere. Not sure if anyone’s seen it. And OnlyFans apparently removed it, so somebody has seen it and probably archived it.
This is going to be looked back on as one of the weirdest times in human history. At state colleges in CA there are people going around marching with similar signs saying “we are undocumented and we are not afraid.”
How the fuck’s an illegal getting into a state school? They have entire programs to give them free college too. I saw one video of one student in the program saying he was afraid because he was majoring in Mexican Studies and wanted to study abroad this semester in Mexico to see his brother, but didn’t know if he’d be able to make it back after. Mutherfucker’s an illegal going to a state school studying Mexico that’s afraid that if he goes to Mexico to visit family, as funded by the state, he’ll be stuck in Mexico. With his family.
No one will believe this era existed.
Best part is that if people hate it, they’ll boycott joining the DoD. Reminds me of the O’Beasts with blue hair saying they weren’t going to have sex or procreate anymore after Roe v Wade flipped. Both terms are acceptable.
Sexy girls from pretty much any culture that doesn’t chant ‘death to America’ are welcome. Would make for fun conversations about it all.
“You can’t just deport all the illegals!”
“We’re letting the hot female ones stay and inviting more of them for expedited admission.”
“WHY CAN’T YOU DEPORT THEM ALL FASTER!?!?!”
Tim’s better than Rogan at this, but typically he’ll still have the issue where if you deeply know about something he’s talking about, he’ll often convey big misunderstandings of it. When it comes to just keeping up with the news and politicians he’s second to none. When it comes to knowing about specific things like this, definitely not the most reliable source if he’s not relaying reports that other people made.
Tim’s also been taken in by a few crackpot guests in the past, like Jack Murphy.
