Yes: “Start now, getting everything that you can reasonably afford, as quickly as you can”

If you think the answer to that question is yes then I think you’ve misunderstood their point.

Funny, the guy who invited him is a lowlife who is among the worst to represent the American people.

The laaaannddd of the freeeee.

Tempted to just make a bot to start posting this on all the American politics posts right now. 9/10 times it’s going to be relevant.

Thank you!

Hmm.

It’d be interesting for to see a forum whereby it’s all readable by anybody, but only those at the top of their fields can post/comment.

I imagine there’d be a gap between those comments and what the rest of us can understand but I kinda like the idea in terms of ensuring we get intelligent, well thought out, comments on important news stories.

I assume the other 3rd are “Ukrainian” in the way that they’ve been places in Ukraine by Russ, but remain loyal to Russia, not Ukraine

Jesus Christ Russia have absolutely nailed this part of their geopolitical play.

They’ve basically got 2 members of, if not an entire, US government under their thumb, they’ve corrupted the EU to make one of their major contributors to leave (thinking the US is on their side, idiotically), and they’ve got good relations with the other superpower (china).

Annoyingly, it looks like the EU which is the most, even if not enough, “for the people” political establishment in our world today is going to get screwed over the next decade or so.

What was the plan here? Surely they had some idea of what they were going to do with the bodies?

Couldn’t agree what stash you’d each grow for Movember? :D /s

Surprised nobody tounge in cheek said this already, maybe it’s too obvious?

Ask an AI.

Elons character arc from a PR point of view is really interesting.

At one point I bet many of his current followers were loudly critical of him for Tesla disrupting the ICE vehicle industry. At that point he was seen as much more progressive.

But his mask has now been removed to show the opportunistic business man he is with very little moral standards. Becoming the enemy of many that had previously fallen for his PR, including me.

In my head he really seems like a comic book character.

My comment specifically states that killing him wasn’t the optimal solution here, so I can’t see how that’s your intrepretation of it.

That’s my interpretation of it because you’re basically saying that because he was breaking the law (maybe you’re saying that it’s because he was breaking specific laws), it’s justified that he was shot and killed.

Whether you want to pussyfoot around the distinction between him deserving it and it being justified is beside the point from my perspective because I don’t believe he did deserve it or that it was justified.

Seems like we’ll just have to agree to disagree on this one.

Neither the article, or anything mentioned in these comments is claiming the victim’s ‘innocence’. They are however making the point that EVEN if you do all of those things you shouldn’t expect to be shot and killed.

Your comment sounds equivalent of claiming girls that dress provocatively deserve to be raped. It just isn’t the point. The point is that he should not have been killed.

I respect that dad’s haircut. Accepted reality and keeping things neat. Strong man.

I’m not sure where my head was when I commented this.

Just getting at the idea that they’re basically worshipping the thing.

We as people just really like worshipping stuff.

Maybe worship is the wrong word due to its religious connotations, but it’s effectively the same thing to hold these kind of celebrations for items that we revere.

Anyway, I’m not sure why the above was relevant:)

It’s called worship.

Not a bad thing, just shit when it’s used to control people.

Good on them for expressing their appreciationane love (worship) for something that is expanding our knowledge.

Whilst I don’t want to argue about whether the appreciation of people in your life should be encouraged by a celebration day, I would like to point out that holidays aren’t specific to appreciating people . They can also be for appreciating things , such as natural phenomenon.

Personally I’d prefer winter and summer type celebrations on the equinox and solstice than Christmas and a seemingly random (in my country) public holiday at a point in the summer where it isn’t that warm anymore.

I was fully expecting one of the steps to just be the guy jizzing in to the bowl Xd

Yeah this is what irked me.
