When the first sentence is a flat-out lie, why would anyone who knows the truth continue reading?
For people who like having their delusions confirmed and just like to read, that wall of nonsense text is probably entertaining. So yeah, your estimate of an ~10% ceiling is probably close. I'd guess closer to 3-5% though.
It would be one thing if it were an actual fire line where they were simultaneously moving several chunks of wood.
But they weren't. It was one chunk moving along as the rest of the line stood idle.
This was staged by someone who was familiar with what a fire line looked like and the association with getting things done quickly but didn't understand how it actually worked.
I kind of quit watching Iversen because of her reporting on the Israel-Gaza "war". Not because I thought it was one-sided (though IMO she's clearly pro-Palestinian) but because I don't care about either side and got tired of hearing about it.
Same with Greenwald.
I still catch them occasionally but they were both on my regular listen list before that story started dominating their time.
Abortion is the last off-ramp in a highway full of off-ramps before women are forced to take responsibility of a child
It's not though.
After they give birth, they can leave it at any safe haven (church, hospital, fire department, etc) and walk away cleanly.
Multiple emotional cry scenes are just a bunch of pansies.
This was my biggest problem with Farscape. Nearly every other episode, the lead dude ended up having a cry. It never felt genuine whatsoever; was completely forced.
Here, I'll treat you with the same respect that you have shown to other people:
It sounds like your support of Trump is quite possibly the single non-idiotic opinion that you hold.
But I'll bet that if pressed about it, your reasons for supporting him are also idiotic.
What an awful article.
"Wow, look at how Kamala is reaching out to young men!"
"Trump tried to do the same thing a long time ago, but he's a hateful bigot and his hateful bigot channel got banned for hate and he hates gamers and thinks games cause violence."
Anyone who opened an account and downloaded said content should be sweating right now.
Only if they went on to share it again. Otherwise there is no conceivable scenario that IP holders would go after the receivers, let alone be successful at it.
Even back in the Napster lawsuits, they were only going after people who had shared songs.
Ori was a Super Meat Boy precision platformer hidden inside of a Metroidvania.
If you like precision platformers, it's decent, but the story is nauseating saccharine "everybody in the forest learns to get along and it was all a big misunderstanding" syrup.
So you're describing behavior that doesn't describe what I've seen from Fuentes, and I agree that that the behavior you've described is 100% fed-speak.
Which is why he comes off as more of a troll to me than a fed.
Fuentes is exactly like that though. He is a literal meme of a Mexican mutt short guy jerking off to femboys while screaming about how Jews bad and women evil.
I don't follow him. I've caught a few long-form interviews with him on podcasts that I do watch over the years (Hodge Twins recently). He did none of this. He talked about stuff that I would classify as mostly reasonable, and nothing he said made me feel like I need to go and subscribe to his channels/feeds/etc because I just don't find him that interesting or insightful.
Maybe he acts differently in other places. I don't know or care. I don't think he has much real influence; he has almost no presence outside of very specific Internet niche, but when he does leave it he at least seems to be able to behave himself.
But apparently not thinking he is a fed and is merely a troll is insufficient. Whatever.
That didn't answer my question.
Furthermore, I'm an atheist, and that sounds like a load of shit to me. Clearly there are different characteristics in different religions; some are supremacist, others are not.
But if you do respond again, you'll still dodge the question and argue about religion in general instead of specifically about individual people who think they are, literally, part of "God's chosen people," and are perfectly willing say it to your face.
It wasn't $12k for himself. He was paying for (some) production costs and also paying his producer Tim. I'm sure he was still taking home a decent chunk but after taxes and paying everyone, that $12k/month looks more like $4-5k/month take-home.
