This is a great article about the different messages which RT/Russia Today is broadcasting in various target markets. It's Russian state propaganda, which tries to weaken western countries. Unfortunately for Russia, it's biting them in the butt because Russian anti-vaxxers are drinking up the disinformation from RT Germany and other markets.
Absolutely. It's kinda funny how once you see toxic masculinity for what it is, you see through all these attempts to appear tough so easily, yet for the people still embedded in that culture, the appearance of this 'toughness' is so crucial to their sense of self worth. I actually just read a really good book on this topic recently, so maybe that's why I had this thought.
I'm guessing this is from the 07 Oct edition of BBC Question Time. It's UK locked on the bbc website (so you'll need a VPN if you're elsewhere), but it might exist in other places.

Also, Ted Cruz was paid by Google to lobby against antitrust law.
Ted Cruz today: https://www.cruz.senate.gov/?p=press_release&id=4586
> Number two, is the antitrust laws," Sen. Cruz continued. "Listen, by any measure Google is larger, it is more powerful, it has a larger market cap than AT&T was when it was broken up by the antitrust laws. It's larger and more powerful than Standard Oil was when it was broken up by the antitrust laws. Google is a monopoly and Google is abusing its monopoly powers. We have antitrust laws to deal with that.
Ted Cruz 10 years ago: https://www.yahoo.com/news/weather/when-google-hired-ted-cruz--was-it-lawyering-or-lobbying-224937497.html
> Facing the threat of an antitrust lawsuit from the state attorney general, Google hired Cruz to represent its interests before the agency where Cruz himself had worked just over two years earlier and where his mentor, Abbott, still called the shots. The future political star met with a top Abbott deputy on Google’s behalf in August 2010, and Cruz then accompanied a team of antitrust lawyers from Google and a Palo Alto, Calif.-based law firm to three additional meetings at the agency, according to a Cruz spokesman and visitors’ logs for the Texas attorney general’s office.
> Texas’ investigation into Google was subsequently closed without action, according to Cynthia Meyer, a spokeswoman for the office of current state Attorney General Ken Paxton.

Companies buying advertising with Facebook know that FB is.. ahem... somewhat unconcerned about the ethics of how stories get spread and propagated. But since the Slimy Algorithm sells advertising, destroying western civilization has been an OK consequence. Surprise! Facebook is happy to make up the lost revenue from their outage by taking it from their advertisers via ramping ad frequency way up - even though that degrades ad performance.
There's a book about this absolutely insane and ridiculously stupid experiment, called A Libertarian Walks Into A Bar:
https://www.amazon.com/Libertarian-Walks-Into-Bear-Liberate/dp/1541788516
I'm sending a couple of copies of this anonymously to some of my stupider, more smug family members who I can't stand to talk to anymore
What you're describing is called an autopen and they've been around forever. Celebrities use them to "sign" everything from books to CDs, to shirts and hats.
Justin bieber, Ariana grande, Ozzy Osbourne, and countless others were busted selling "autographed" CDs using Auto pen last year. Sinead O'Connor skipped technology all together, sent an image of her autograph to a company that makes stamps, and just stamped all of the signed copies of her book. She admitted to it last month and it blew up in her face. Cardi b did the same thing a few months ago, admitting to waiting for a stamp to come so she could "sign" her CDs.
But this is the machine that you're basically describing. Doesn't even cost $300. And eBay is already filled with people using them to rip off customers.

More than half of Reddit's desktop user base is not in the US though, and even if that changes slightly with mobile usage, I'd say that's enough to not assume anything.

There’s been some fascinating research about how most “popular” revolutions are attempts by the indebted to tear down the system and reset their finances. This book has some great stories.
There was also a big article in the Washington Post about how many of the insurrectionists had tax problems and bad debts. Babbitt was just one of many, but since she’s the one who took a bullet to the neck her family is going to use that to try to make some coin.

That’s the very definition of evil.
The author’s name should look familiar. His brother is someone who’s been getting evil on video and film for quite some time.
It’s also people not being smart about it. It’s very easy to overwork yourself in the heat and die of heatstroke. That’s not a thing in the cold.
Also, people up north die during heat waves because their homes don’t have air conditioning, are configured to lock in heat, and people don’t understand how to deal with it. We don’t have deaths from heatwaves typically, but a bunch of people froze to death here in Austin in what would have been an uneventful winter freeze in Chicago.
Apparently it’s debatable about extreme cold or extreme heat being the bigger killer NOAA agrees with you, the CDC says cold kills more.
I think this might be what breaks the Trump spell. The infallible leader who will stands with us cult abandon them at their moment of need and concede the presidency. On parler.com, the alt-right equivalent to Twitter, they pretty pissed and disillusion over this betrayal.

It's a real message. Two days ago.
These things, probably. You wedge the metal bit into the door strike plate, and then a thick plastic piece slides onto that to physically bar the door from opening. Once blocked, you can only open the door by breaking or dislodging the plastic piece.
If you have hard floors, you could also get one of these braces. They wedge under your existing doorknob and use a sticky friction base to prevent the bar from sliding. Putting force on the door just pushes the bar downward, increasing the friction.
Neither is going to stand up to an attacker that can shatter the whole doorframe, like one of those police battering rams, but otherwise will be very secure. Also, barring the door is only one line of defense against a determined attacker, who might just be able to spray bullets right through the drywall.

Sorry I wasn't clear what I meant about the Senate.
The Senate is dominated by representatives from a minority party because of the design of the Electoral College which favors low population states like Wyoming (580K citizens), while discriminating against high population states like California (39.5M citizens), each of which have two senators. If the Senate were elected on a democratic "every vote counts the same" basis, there would be more Democrats than Republicans. 50% of voters are Democrat or lean Democrat; 39% are Republican or lean Republican. (See Lessig's "They Don't Represent Us".)
Nationwide, Republicans are a minority party.
I see people missed your sarcasm, but:
Of course it isn't... in like 99% of normal contexts. Just like the swastikas on my roommate's bag of Vietnamese mushroom powder aren't racist (nevermind that they're counter-clockwise).

For anyone who's looking to better understand this mindset in rural America, I highly recommend the book "Deer Hunting With Jesus: Dispatches from America's Class War" by Joe Bageant. (Amazon link here.) The author grew up in a rural area, left to attain an education and successful career, and then moved back to write this book as an explanation to his "liberal coastal elite" friends of why people in his hometown think and vote like they do.
The book is now a little dated, having been published in the mid aughts, but it's still very applicable to the present day. I found it to be an entertaining and insightful read, if somewhat depressing due to the subject matter. It explains why poor people in rural areas vote against their own interests and cling so strongly to religion. The horrific state of rural healthcare is also covered at length.
there are 2 modes [yin & yang] for building social capital from mutual trust.

the yang mode is endemic war.

> He isn't nearly as *b*ad as
Which is the whole point. Hence why the poster you replied to referred to "onboarding". If he was screaming the fascism/racism at the top of his lungs, impressionable youth would know to avoid him. By coating it with reasonableness/moderatism, he's able to slip in "diet" versions of the fascism/racism that people can say "Well, heck that's not so bad..." and prepare them to eventually accept the worst versions.
To quote from They Thought They Were Free: The Germans, 1933-45 (a collection of interviews with ordinary German citizens who lived through the rise of Nazi rule in Germany):
> But the one great shocking occasion, when tens or hundreds or thousands will join with you, never comes. That’s the difficulty. If the last and worst act of the whole regime had come immediately after the first and smallest, thousands, yes, millions would have been sufficiently shocked—if, let us say, the gassing of the Jews in ’43 had come immediately after the ‘German Firm’ stickers on the windows of non-Jewish shops in ’33. But of course this isn’t the way it happens. In between come all the hundreds of little steps, some of them imperceptible, each of them preparing you not to be shocked by the next. Step C is not so much worse than Step B, and, if you did not make a stand at Step B, why should you at Step C? And so on to Step D.

In Tashkent, yes absolutely. Its actually fascinating how Russian policy to central asia stayed exactly the same from tsar to soviet administration. (I love this book: The Great Game ). But Kyiv has been part of the Russian sense of Russia for longer than the US has been a going concern; Russia traces itself back to the Kievan Rus'.
One alternatively could assess the Ukrainians inherited the hardass part of the Red Army that gave me nuclear war nightmares growing up, and the Russians inherited the part of the Soviet command economy that makes punchlines.

I don't see any comment suggesting that trans women are cis women. Please link to what you're talking about.
What I do see is something that's wrong, namely
>The app was created for cis women who have things in common that trans women can’t relate to
Look at the page in the appstore yourself. Based on the description it's a very broad app that's certainly not just to talk about cis-women-only stuff. "Latest issues, politics, news, and more". The third screenshot shows other very generic topics like activism, room, exercise, hobbies... In other words, the app appeals to very broad feminine stuff which obviously appeals to trans women too. Which leaves me to conclude that the only reason to keep them out is transphobia.
I agree that trans women won't have to personally deal with any of that list, but
Does your "sex based oppression" not include behavioural sexism? Because obviously if a trans woman passes people could be sexist against her in the same ways they could be sexist against a cis woman. That's what I meant at least.
Trans people have their spaces but I haven't heard of any that excludes cis women. I don't see why they would. The only reason I can think of for why you'd exclude trans women is because you don't think they're "real" women. Or maybe you don't like their flag, idk

Here ya go, an entire book on the adoption industry https://www.amazon.ca/Stork-Market-Americas-Multi-Billion-Unregulated/dp/1427608954
Also, it's only human trafficking if a parent tries to sell their child. An adoption agency charging $50k in "fees" is just dandy.
>Moreover I'm curious what your alternative idea is? Euthanizing the millions of children desperately hoping to be adopted?
And yet another laugh. There aren't millions of children "hoping" to get adopted, there probably isn't even 100,000 worldwide. It's hard to judge because lots of kids who might appear to have no family actually do.
But hey, what could someone who has been involved with adoption reform activism for over 20 years possibly know compared to you, I guess.
Sorry dude, but Ceaușescu's choice to ban abortion, while faltering in providing food and labor opportunity, only intensified his regime's problems. Obviously, it's not the sole factor that lead Romania to revolution, but it's an important factor when compared to how other revolutions went down. Also, the foster kids weren't just kids when the revolution happened; they were of fighting age.
If you want an in-depth analysis of how someone came to the conclusion, a partnership of an economist and a journalist coming together wrote a book called Freakonomics. Here's also an analysis after the fact, a revisiting if you will.
It's not just about abortion and Ceaușescu's downfall, but they make a connection in how the legalization of abortion helped the US' crime rate to go down. Again, it’s not the sole factor, but an important point of time to point out: from a time where abortion wasn't publicly allowed, to a time where abortion was legal.

This book explains that it is about those things you mentioned, and that the ultimate goal is to cause their perceived opponents to lash out or defend themselves in a scaled up or more violent response so they can gain more sympathy from regular people, so they can recruit, and so they can convince people that the world is more violent so independents and some of the left are more likely to change their support to an authoritarian figure, which they expect will come from the far right. In any event, the experts and historians say it’s about causing violence to move the pieces in place for the war they want and can’t get when people are satisfied with a stable democratic setting.

Vkontakte is the main Russian language social media app. Android version on the Google Play store here. I'm hearing Russians are being cut off from all social media so you'd have to hope whatever you shared got back to people in Russia from family still able to use the app outside Russia.
I don't suggest sharing photos of dead Russian soldiers there, that's a bit rough for families to worry about. You could share videos from pages like r/combatfootage showing endless convoys of abandoned Russian vehicles, protests in Russia, and videos of humane treatment of Russian soldiers by Ukrainians. Point out how Russia is sending young kids to die in garbage equipment to these people so it gets back to Russia.
I think you need friends to get stuff seen so you'd have to upload videos to your profile and share a link to it in more popular threads. Also you could upload videos to download and streaming pages and share links on popular posts in the hopes it gets to people back in Russia thru sharing the link with family. You can use messaging apps to create new phone numbers if your profile gets banned.

It's anyone that goes against their grain, like Australian runner Peter Norman who was kicked out of the Olympics for standing with John Carlos and Tommie Smith in 1968. It wasn't until 6 years after he died that the Australian government apologized to him.
Yes, yes it does
I’m an American and in moments like this it reminded me what is the most quintessential American trait
We say one thing and do another
I used to teach SAT prep.. a lot of 1st gen immigrant kids, and I say one of the traits Americans have which is really hard to deal w is that we have no principles, and they would just nod, and once in a while I’d get a kid who’d ask why. Because for some the idea of no principles was anathema,
(I mean I had a kid who point blank at 17 was told by his father, these are your college majors, your going to go for pre med and you’re going to volunteer at the hospital in geriatrics because that’s were the growth is and that’s what your specialty will be. And he told me of course I said yes.
Can you imagine an American kid saying ok?!?)
So back to principles
And I’d tell them “because this country wouldn’t be where your parents wanted to take you without it.
My great grandparents like their parents came here to get a better life, and that meant sometimes having to work with people that they didn’t want to. People who would’ve been considered criminals or dishonorable back home.
But it was either work w them or starve.
My grandmother told me that her father was a baker in Newark NJ and whatever he made he had to give a kickback to bakery owner. Every paycheck he’d have to go cash it and then give the owner 10%
But he had no choice there was no work other than that shop.
One day the bakery unionized and he was so happy that he kept his paycheck that when he see the union label on the wrapper he’d kiss it.
So multiply it millions of people making the same choices millions of times over years and years and you get to that photo a woman protesting quarentine rules while also having a mask ready to go just in case.
Sorry for the additional stuff. I just felt it made sense to add it

>in which case you're a hypocrite because you're also here,
Never said I didn’t watch or wasn’t susceptible myself to propaganda. You’re also admitting that since I’m here and so are you, and if that makes me a victim of propaganda, so are you.
>making some massive assumptions about me / you and are clearly indoctrinated
I think you’re the hypocritical one :-)
>by either alt-right or bullshit libertarian nonsense that basically can be summarized as "haha empathy is stupid and everyone but me sucks".
The piece de resistance, always left to the end when nothing else can be said, follows The Emotional Child Guide to political discussion.
You don't understand.
Libertarians never stop at advocating for their own "freedom", they want everyone else to be as "free" as them. Firsts it's the government shouldn't regulate raw milk. Then it's the government shouldn't regulate regular milk. Then its the government shouldn't get to decide what milk is supplied to kids in schools. Then its school choice over public schools. The slide goes on, and on, and on until society is effectively an ancap hellscape where the person with the most guns gets to decide who has the freedom to be turned into biomatter fuel.
This is what I mean when I say libertarians will often advocate against the best interests of people for the sake of some bullshit concept of freedom. Its a dumb ideology that is often contradictory to the values which they claim to espouse. Let alone the fact that right libertarian movements often have a cadre of Nazis and pedophiles.
If you want to learn more about how dumb libertarians are and how a libertarian project played out then look up Grafton and the Free Town Project.

I hear this far too often, and it’s simply not true
Look no further than the conflict between the First Commandment and the First Amendment. This country was founded on secular values.
Read The Founding Myth by Andrew Siedel if you’re honestly interested in the subject

Funny you should ask! Someone literally wrote a book about this in 2015. It's only gotten worse since then.
For me it was covered as the image for this thing on Amazon. This image encapsulates literally everything I was taught about buttes.

I think it's mildy amusing, because I'm funny that way, that an "anti-women" (for the sake of brevity) subreddit has the same initials as a feminine deodorant spray, FDS. Then again, I'm perhaps easily entertained.
Not just covid but all the conspiracies

I believe his most relevant quote on his YouTube channel was “vaccines are the mark of the beast)”. He has 200k subscribers

Jacob Rees-Mogg's dad literally wrote the textbook on disaster capitalism.
You really want to end up on an ASIO list? You can find it if you look. Do a search for "Inspire magazine truck weapon how to" and that should get you into the right area to find the latest copies of their magazine.
If you are seriously going to search it out I recommend a trustworthy VPN(not ExpressVPN considering what is coming out now about that particular service) or use TOR and anonymise the fsck out of yourself.
Before you ask here's a link about ExpressVPN if you haven't heard about it yet

You're referring to: "Blood in the Streets: Investment Profits in a World Gone Mad" sold on Amazon for about £40
Yup. This haunted fucking pencil of a man's dad literally wrote the book on disaster-capitalism, all he had to do was everything he could to cause a disaster. Mission accomplished with Brexit.
The last FedEx package I got, which had <a href="https://www.chewy.com/frisco-halloween-mansion-cardboard/dp/293134">a cardboard house for my cats</a>, was left in a puddle in my driveway. The one before that was left in a fire ant bed.
Look, just because I live on a narrow street... (That's the best reason I can come up with. My landlord doesn't allow political signs.)
Reminding me of this. From Authoritarian Nightmare - Trump and His Followers, Chapter 8:
>So why did the greater religiousness of evangelicals not keep them from embracing Donald Trump? Because for a great many of them, despite all the fuss and bother and appearances, their religion is simply not important. Their religious commitment, like the person they think they are, does not exist in significant ways. When Donald Trump came along, resplendent in moral shortcomings but promising the moon, evangelicals had little difficulty setting aside their supposed beliefs and supporting him. In fact, this was their S.O.P. They had been setting those beliefs aside 167 hours a week for most of their lives. Con men know that the easiest people to fool are the people who persistently fool themselves. This reality is an amazingly simple answer, yet when you stand back from it, it also is simply amazing.

It’s a tough read but I recommend Dying of Whiteness. The author spends a good chunk of the book backing up some of the points you make with cold hard research.
Got this attachment on Amazon. I give it a thumbs up.
>I will never disagree with you BUT those old white dudes knew exactly what they were doing when they put the Constitution and the Bill of Rights together. They willingly gave up their power to form the country.
I think this is a bit of a myth. I'd recommend this book to counter some of this American origin story mythology, and also explains how that ties into the current day state of our country. Not saying that what you said is completely incorrect, but it's not as cut & dry as all that.
Crash is a 1996 erotic psychological thriller film written and directed by David Cronenberg, based on J. G. Ballard's 1973 novel of the same name. It follows a film producer (James Spader) as he becomes involved with a group of symphorophiliacs who are sexually aroused by car crashes.
For those who don't know: excellent essay by that title from a few years ago that is now being turned into a book.
Yah he also WROTE A BOOK titled “Setting a Course Toward Free Markets and Limited Government for Future Generations”

I got into kombucha, and then pickles. Ended up buying myself this book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/160358286X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_3MY90331A9B682W2W2YA?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
It spiraled from there. Now I have a problem.

Yeah, not my fault someone fucked up the quote/joke.
Check out this excellent resource if you are into stocks! "Stonks & The Cult of Hodling"
by the way, this is not your typical investment guide book. Well, it definitely seeks to be the go-to investment piece of literature for sure since there are many popular ones out there. But one thing is for sure, you will come across very few that will give you upfront truth about how wealth is being managed or grown. If you want to be a stonk-king like how Elon Musk is Technoking (pun intended), then to kickstart your journey, you should take this read seriously. You will be presented two sides of the coin in different arguments and investment thesis that are being presented. Stonks do not go up forever. Valuations are not what they are. But there is still a somewhat arbitrarily conceived figure based on the already frothy or if you like, bubbly valuations that exist. Warren Buffett has a quote that goes “It is only when the tide goes out that you know who has been swimming naked.”
The book discusses about Catherine Woods and her strategies in active management, Warren Buffett (of course) and other forms of investment strategies that you might want to consider adopting. Worth a read!
