    EU Assassination Attempt on Slovakia PM Robert Fico

    Seems (emphasis added: SEEMS) like it might be a(nother) case of 'individual nutter with incoherent beliefs latches onto a target'--just because Progressive Slovakia support clashes hard with what one article says of Slovenski Branci and the general ideology someone involved there would have. On...

    United States Anti-Semitism in the United States (and elsewhere)

    It is relevant to point out here considering how often you've brought it up that this isn't attributable to 'Jews', but Art Spiegelman, the author/illustrator and publisher of Maus. It's also relevant that, and I've not read it, but it portrays everyone as animals--Germans are cats, Jews mice...

    United States Dystopian America

    Federal mismanagement of lands caused decades of mass wildfire suppression that caused literally incalculable damage to ecologies and state economies whenever fires grew beyond suppression attempts (especially when paired with increasing burden on logging or other management). Similarly, poor...

    United States Trump v Biden 2, electric boogaloo

    As with a few other highly-publicized trials... If they're* willing to screw it up on stuff where everyone is watching, where they KNOW their actions will be gone over with a fine-tooth comb to produce real or even rhetorical examples of bias and malfeasance...If they STILL do this kind of stuff...

    United States Dystopian America

    This is just repeating the 'Federal management and oversight of lands is fucking-over the actual residents of the region' point.

    Hamas Launches Offensive Against Southern Israel

    Jewish population numbers certainly declined during the Holocaust. Palestinian population over the last decades have not. It's also recognizable that Palestinian flight from 'Palestine' or Israel is not necessarily connected to actions by Israel driving them out (it may be, but it is not...

    United States Trump v Biden 2, electric boogaloo

    There's, frankly, far too much believability to cartel-USFederales cooperation--Zetas being specially-trained by us, Fast & Furious running guns to them... Plus, there's INFINITELY believable corruption in Mexico itself. Up to and including Obrador colluding with them to gain power via funding...

    United States 2024: United States Senate Dicussion Thread

    Honestly, having just looked it up on a curiosity...The weird/frightening thing is that Bernie Sanders has been in government for ten years less than Joe Biden, and has more recent private-sector experience, both despite being a year older. Biden started (elected) government work in 1970 as a...

    Politicians and Government Cringe Thread

    In fairness to Hawaii, it's not their argument alone. New York is making the similar argument that their modern gun restrictions are justified based on English-derived laws from before the Revolution barring Catholics from bearing arms (and restricting sales to Native Americans). We're in full...

    Breaking News Cannabis to Be Moved From Schedule I to Schedule III, Per AP

    I am not a lawyer. That said, I am curious as to what--if any--relevance this change would have on a few ongoing firearms cases that specifically contest the bar on marijuana-users. ...Most prominently, the President's son is, I believe, actively involved in such a case (I think--could be I'm...

    Trump Investigations Thread

    Yes, there were no new wars, but the man had White House chefs bring him two scoops of ice cream instead of one just to flex on guests. Clearly top five worst President ever behavior, that.

    Googling information critical of Israel is no longer a thing

    'Mossad Commentary' on twitter isn't actually Mossad. I suspect the Mossad doesn't have twitter. If they do, I suspect it's in Hebrew. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-israel-roadside-bomb-world-central-kitchen-096413602260

    Armchair General's DonbAss Derailed Discussion Thread (Topics Include History, Traps, and the Ongoing Slavic Civil War plus much much more)

    I don't know if I can take a technical seriously if it's built on a Land Cruiser frame. Seriously, if it's not a Hilux and there was actually some kind of engineering blueprint behind it's design, is it a real gun-truck, or just a professional military's pale imitation?

    Five minutes of hate news

    There's an easy way to do that, actually. Congress appropriating funds to specific usages. Or, alternatively, cutting spending. Of course, the whole argument of whether Congress should or should not have held Ukraine and Israel aid up in exchange for a border deal of some kind is moot anyways...

    Israel 🇮🇱 State of Israel Thread

    This is...basically correct. Insofar as it could be said of any Middle Eastern dictator. It's certainly more true of him than it is of any member of the Saud dynasty. Jimmy Carter, however, did. American distancing from Israel is, honestly, a bit remniscent of the distancing from Iran--albeit...

    Five minutes of hate news

    I know the idea of them doing it is a laugh at this point, but it is entirely possible for Congress to make spending cuts. Arguably even necessary/good considering the debt, looming Social Security insolvency, and inflation pressures. Or, if they wanted to keep up a 'fuck Russia' line, they...

    Russian Invasion of Ukraine 2022

    The bill did have some hundreds of millions of dollars for 'refugee and entrant assistance' included on its own, and was intentionally split apart from HR2 (the 'sweetener' border bill that was talked about in prior months--much as I don't think that one was a good idea just because e-verify is...

    Ladies and gentlemen, the aristocrats United States House of Representatives! Y'know, I think the thing that really aggravates over all this independent of all and any argument over funding levels or priorities or anything else on the specifics of the topic of Ukraine, is that it's the final...

    This is a complete and total tangent, but... There's a weird...not 'beauty' at all, but a good appearance...to the mid-60s Soviet design bureau love-affair with big honkin' air intakes that extend to just behind the cockpit and makes the whole plane just...look like a Soviet apartment block but...

    United States 2nd Amendment Legal Cases and Law Discussion

    It's notable that the bill authors, besides including 'other shooting sports' (let's go, three gun and crew-served weaponry competitions in schools! Artillery courses would, no joke, undoubtedly incentivize mathematics and physics learnin'...), also chose/had to include culinary arts because of...
