Mr.TaterSalad Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) I waited for the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme to start playing or the laugh track to come on thinking this was all the a staged video, but it never came. Edited October 14, 2022 by Mr.TaterSalad Quote

Mr.TaterSalad Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Hersch-a-hontus? Walk-a-hontus? Remember when Trump and the right wing went out of their ever loving minds that Elizabeth Warren claimed to have Native American heritage. 1 Quote
Mr.TaterSalad Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Since I've been following politics in-depth as a college student starting back in 2006 (even in my libertarian and right wing days) I don't think I can ever recall a non-Trump candidate who was this much of a mess and is still considered a truly viable candidate. Herschel Walker gives us something new each and every day it seems. Quote

Turns out, she did and that Mitch wanted them there on the scene too. But the Traitor In Chief didn't want them deployed. Almost everything MAGA accuses someone else of they get caught doing themselves, including here. This is new routine I saw this morning, apparently from Gateway Pundit: It was all a setup. From Ray Epps – to opening the magnetic doors from the inside – to the dozens of fed operatives in the crowd – to Ginger Gun – to firing flash bombs and gas canisters on unsuspecting grandmas and seniors – to the mass arrests of hundreds of innocent Trump supporters who were waved into the US Capitol. Now we have the proof that it was all a setup and the entire thing was filmed by a pre-staged camera crew. Quote

I have to agree that there is a strong minority in the US Government of people who shuffle in from their West Virginia or Shenandoah Valley rural redoubts at 5:30-6:am listening to "Patriot" radio on Sirius and who are infected by this RW stuff. People who have the audacity to call themselves Libertarians even though they work inside the behemoth of the US Government. Orwell called it inside the Leviathan. Some of them have figured out how to navigate the wokiness of the USG and contractor corporate cultures. Others stand out and get slow-tracked as apolitical dinosaurs which further fuels their grievances. All these people need is evil leadership to empower them. 1 Quote
oblong Posted October 17, 2022 Posted October 17, 2022 That's the one I was trying to think of a few weeks ago and couldn't remember it's name and wasn't motivated enough to look.... everyone was making a show of bailing to Parler. Then I think someone published their open source code. Quote

pfife Posted October 17, 2022 Posted October 17, 2022 Maybe I'll make a $30 bid for Parler to drive up the price on Ye 1 Quote

Conservatives were going to sue a private business because that private business didn't want to do business with another private business. Something about free speech which is odd because no governments got involved in restricting anyone's speech. It's almost like conservatives were full of shit. 1 1 Quote

I'm sure the current owners will be happy to take pennies on the dollar to get out, but hard to see how someone so clearly mentally ill can enter into a binding agreement. Quote

I freely admit I'm old and not the market, but I'm struggling to understand Zuckerberg's vision of VR. Why do I want to have my real time reality linked animated avatar interacting with another person's similarly powered animated avatar in a meeting when we can just look at each other's real faces and expressions given garden variety video and IP tech? Sure I get it for gaming, but Zuck's ambition for the abstraction of direct human interaction is way beyond gaming. Seems like a screaming case of a tech solution searching for a problem. Also oddly discordant as facebook was all about achieving greater direct person to person contact. Edited October 17, 2022 by gehringer_2 1 Quote
