these "you know it when you see it" obscenity laws aren't some plot by Big Puritan
They absolutely are a plot by the older generation to not "feel bad" about their lost youth by erasing every element of it from the sight of society.
We live in a gerontocracy where every political narrative revolves around appealing to the elderly.
Yeah everything I've seen in youtube clips about the orville reinforces the idea that I have absolutely no interest in watching it, and that was before I saw the clips that make it clear they threw hamfisted woke talking points.
With people noticing that george floyd died from swallowing his own drugs, they were afraid people might think they didn't have the influence to burn cities down so they started setting teslas on fire.
I legit think this is the progression.
That is true.
He didn't OD like "doing his usual dose just got a bit to much".
He OD'd like "put his entire stash for the week in his mouth".
Someone said floyds drugs were labelled oxytocin. Though the label was deceptive and it was actually fentanyl and meth. Apparently the fentanyl/meth combination will dissolve in the mouth and is severely more dangerous to hide in your mouth, but, floyd didn't know that.
The real fact that surprised me was that fentanyl overdose can cause cardiac arrest. The stereotype of fentanyl overdose is the unconscious zombie thing followed by death from a lack of oxygen.
Good point...unfortunately...I guess once they get away with it it's a lot harder to role back.
No matter how much they persecute someone but fail to pull it off - like rittenhouse or penny - it's just a personal ego problem.
Literally several non-white-male cops shot and killed people in the area, and the elites took steps to reduce their sentences, until a white guy restraining a black guy who was dying from his own drugs came along, then they started a full court propaganda push.
Yeah they are anti-white-male, not pro-black.
A Somali cop pulled up in front of an a woman's house and shot her to death in her own front yard for no reason, in minneapolis a little before floyd. The local court gave him a significant sentence, but, the elites in the Minnesota supreme court took extra steps to step in and reduce his sentence to a few years. Literally the BLM "cops pull up and start shooting for no reason" story but since the cop and the victim black they forgot to care.
Then a White woman officer shot and killed a black guy with a warrant who was fleeing by accident, when she meant to tase them. She got a few years. Not saying she deserved more but again no rioting or big push by the elites.
Somewhere in there a hispanic cop shot a black guy who had a gun in his waistband at a traffic stop. That was uh 'white-adjacent' enough that they made a push to try to prosecute him but the jury wouldn't convict.
When floyd came along they finally had the right races to run the lynching they had obsessed their whole lives about - a white cop, and a black guy. The fact that the black guy killed himself swallowing his stash of drugs didn't matter to them. They went full court press - the elites in the government threatened the people below them, the press pushed out pointedly false propaganda about what happened, they showed the activist-taken video over and over but didn't release the bodycam video until they had a conviction and the trial was over.
I worked in the minneapolis area and after this they held a big meeting at my company about the sins of white people then "layed off" the white male low level employees. Not kidding about that. Layoff happened literally the day after they forced the white managers to give the speech. The white HR lady showed up in the next meeting and you could see she was forcing the white manager to say this stuff.
It's not pro-black, it's just anti-white-male.
I honestly thought at the time that if they realized they were wrong later they'd walk it back at least. Maybe apologize.
Bit nieve of me I guess.
I mean, you gotta give them credit for jumping onboard 'exciting times' though.
Remember, if you are white. And someone who is unrelated but looked like you did some bad slavery thing 200 years ago, you are responsible.
But if you apply the same standard to someone who assaulted you last week, you are a bigot.
Women engage in proxy-violence.
I'm not a regular bar-goer but twice I've watched drunk women literally grab a guy by the hand, pull him over to another guy he didn't know, and try to get them to fight each other. Non-drunk women are usually less obvious and direct but the effect is the same.
The issue with women and violence is that it's very difficult to get the women who cause it to suffer the consequences. A man who picks fights risks getting hurt or killed in evety fight even if he wins the fight. A woman who pushes men into fights rarely has any consequences at all.
I don't see a huge issue with this.
They thought it was a huge issue because they did extra work to implement it.
The easiest way to implement it is that whatever day you take off that comes out of your vacation. You have to do extra steps to try to sandwich in irrelevant days.
Work computer, okay, fair. Don't want to lock people out of the computer out of spite before you leave.
This isn't how it works at all, you changing your password doesn't affect the companies ability to get into the computer whatsoever.
Still remember a.i. generating pics of completely wrong ethnicities in historical blgarb was 'why do you care blabla" until people started geberating black nazis. Then 'suddenly' historical accuracy mattered a little.
