This type of context is most useful.

The ACLU setting up Federal Civil Rights as a precedent to break Federalism is consistent with a long-term aim to change the fundamental character of the nation from the top-down, which is consistent with leftist aims.

Changing one set of Federal laws vs. a patchwork of State and local laws-- which one do you think is the easier way to force broad permissiveness?

Trick question! You ram it through the highest courts you can as precedent, so the legislature doesn't even vote on it!

Sure. Tell yourself that.

Once the Muslim population crosses a threshold from a minority to a plurality, things in the UK will get more 'interesting' than anyone in power, or you, have accounted for.

"The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true." - J. Robert Oppenheimer

Sounds about right.

It's a function of the decent, moral people avoiding the corruption of politics.

The turds rise to the top; a common conservative problem.

Ask them how well the 'pride bobby cap' wearing officers in the trans pride flag cars will be able to police Islamic neighborhoods.

Rotherham coverup. Rotherham coverup. Rotherham coverup.

The abject moral bankruptcy and corruption of every single large political party.

If they aren't upset at their police and government, then it's clear they aren't paying attention. Furthermore, they haven't reasoned themselves into their position; they haven't reasoned about it at all.

That's why I said harder vs. impossible, but you're right.

Election integrity is dog shit

You're thinking of Kuntzman, Gersh Kuntzman:

"It feels like a bazooka — and sounds like a cannon," the New York Daily News' Gersh Kuntzman said in an article published Tuesday. "The explosions — loud like a bomb — gave me a temporary case of PTSD. For at least an hour after firing the gun just a few times, I was anxious and irritable."

In 1967, Polish mercenary Rafal Ganowicz was asked what it felt like to take human life, "I wouldn't know, I've only ever killed Communists."

Based and helicopter pilled.

I suppose Obrien suffering and making a surprised face is half the charm of his character, but I was hoping for a 1984 reference.

Of the two, it's 1984's O'Brien who richly deserves more suffering.

I would bet dimes to donuts that it's a 1984 reference, not star trek.

My thinking is more of the both/and. Both Biden being senile and us engaging in Ukraine thins out the US military enough to make China's actions possible. Harris is more of an unknown.

I think Harris doesn't project weakness the way Biden does; she'd be more prone to overreact militarily-- and that would likely lead to engagement in both Ukraine AND Taiwan, just to avoid appearing weak. Ironically, the threat of an active president, even an overactive one, would probably mean China isn't as likely to attack Taiwan. (I think if we engage in Ukraine and start losing, though, Taiwan's in BIG trouble, regardless of the president.)

Do you think they'll take the chance of waiting for the next US presidential election?

This is the end of a big window for them, so no-- I think they want to invade with Biden pooping in the big seat. I think they want the US to overcommit in Ukraine before going in. That's a short term wait, while they watch for any mistakes by Biden.

I get the feeling if the US commits in Ukraine, Taiwan gets invaded.

Judge yourself through the trad-con lens you so often decry: your stance on women means you won't pass on your genetic legacy, making you a dead-end. It's why you're so vociferous-- you have to convert people to your ideology because you cannot pass it on to your kids naturally.

Same boat as the gays, really.

This is your sadly necessary reminder that bug chasers are a thing.

There are sick fucks in the gay community who actively seek out and spread STDs.

Nobody in the political mainstream wants to address this, but Pozzing is a thing. Intentionally contracting HIV and spreading it to make others HIV Positive-- that's POZZING.

You know... I wonder what would happen if Veritas went after these articles, after snapshotting the Wikipedia page. They have a 'retracto' segment where they detail the retractions they've forced.

If these sources get retracted, could they then slam Wikipedia for libel?

It'd make one helluva bit on their 'retracto' wall to make Wikimedia their bitch.
