Genuinely seems like an unforced error.
For all the talk of protecting sources in the 'Mug Club Investigates,' pitch, here's Crowder revealing information about his source to a Urinalist the next day. I guess the opening for the livestream the day prior was just a skit/LARP?
Literally who?
I don't mind checking the river to see who's corpses have floated by, but I really don't care about propaganda aparatniks who shilled for the machine a decade ago. Their obscurity speaks for itself.
EDIT: I'm looking through an archive of the journalists on Deepfreeze.it. I guess I have to ask who this guy is/was again? I don't see him on that list.
I checked up on the Bike Karen story a few months ago. She's lawyered up, so there's a lawsuit against the media outlets in the works. Both sides have laid out the receipts for the bike they fought over, which more or less confirms the guy was docking the bike to avoid tolls. (He's low income and if he keeps the bike longer than 45 minutes, he gets dinged, so he's doing what's incentivized.) He squatted on the bike while it was docked to keep it available for his personal use without paying for it. The 'Karen' just used the app and got assigned 'his' bike, so he got in her face and forced the bike back. It was probably standard behavior for him, save for the virality of the video.
Here's an article from the summer with the (then) recent developments. I've tried finding the suit itself, but websearch is garbage and pulls up the viral event much more than the lawsuit.
USSR ... not engaged in 'genocide against white people.' However, that ironically was the plan of your hero Hitler.
As someone who has a branch of my family in Ukraine, one which didn't emigrate in 1905, I laugh in Holodomor-- the kind of death Communists have in store for all of us: death by hunger.
You don't get to dismiss with a handwave 'whatever the depredations of the USSR.' If that's the condition, the rest of that conditional statement is null and void. The depredations of the USSR have everything do do with why the Nazis attacked them.
I say this even though the Nazis wouldn't have constructed either Slav or Jew as white. They knew very well what horrors Stalin intended for the rest of Europe when they preempted his planned offensive and blew up his army.
Stopping the USSR, given the horrors of its existence, would otherwise be a moral good if not an imperative.
That you go on to imply Hitler's genocide of Schrödinger's Whites is ironic? Well, good thing I was already laughing.
The problem with that is all totalitarian governments spend massive amounts of time and effort making sure that their voice is the only one heard, and that everyone knows what the price of dissent and defection is. The average person might realize that they're being lied to and slowly starving to death, but everyone who leaves just disappears.
This comes to mind:
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” ― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
I remember Pelosi saying we needed to join the throng for Chinese new year in Chinatown, to "send a message."
I'd argue 'wizard led movements to preserve the cultures of Rohan, Gondor, and the Shire in the face of mass Orcish immigration' sounds pretty damn right wing. I'll point to the memetic structure of Orcposting to prove it. The left, as proponents of immigration, map onto the dark lord. That's why this comic is backwards-- like so much of what the left produces, it's projection.
I have hope that, like with the Reedy Creek district getting dissolved, their D.I.E. devotions become partisan enough for there to at least be a discussion when that time comes.
I fully understand that the ESG/government backing racket exists, that they will be supported and kept alive in exchange for 'services rendered' to the state.
Let them bleed anyway. Force them to expose their hand and leverage their position. The more untenable for them, the better. I know better than to expect a happy ending, but let them suffer.
I suspect you're thinking of Diablo: Immoral, the whale-bait game where you'd need to spend $200K to cap out the T10 gems on a single character.
Which, as Vox Day would say, is the point. Not being racist is synonymous with accepting the destruction of your people.
I had been following the Missouri half of this case. I found the federal rulings (~4-6 mos ago?) in favor of the states' positions most promising.
I am not surprised that the injunctions against censorship have been lifted. When it comes to stays against abuses of power, federal courts have little reason to rule against federal officials. I am disappointed, but not surprised.
What's worth noting is that NYS has rural counties which are red. Shunting immigrants upstate means expanding blue enclaves in politically opposed regions. This is the future of the red regions in blue states, playing out in real time. NYC in trouble due to migrants? Ship them out to the boonies and make them reliant on state handouts, to convert them to more blue voters wherever they're needed.
EDIT: and to those of you in red states, the fate of the red counties in blue states is a precursor of what losing at the federal level means, nationally.
