Wow, Game Theory called it?

George Washington fucking called it the minute we started electing people.

The fucking civil war happened over something incredibly similar to this.

This is pretty low hanging fruit to give anyone credit for “calling it”.

Oh fuck yeah.

Nat Turner was a John Henry mother fucker. Need to give him a god damn mini gun.

Self evident truths go “braaaaaaaat”!

JFC what was your unit like!?

There were shitty people sure, but it seemed to match the same percentages as everywhere else.

I will say this. The military taught me that every color/gender has a similar distribution of people who are solid and people who I wouldn’t piss on if they were on fire.

The worst ones absolutely were white officers. (But some of the best were too.)

The worst fucking enlisted leader I ever had was a skinny black Master Chief that said some of the stupidest shit. He didn’t believe in building up your people through mentorship and just shit on everyone.

He did some dumb but hilarious shit though. One time a pair of sailors violated DADT so they could leave (Claimed.they were gay). He said, “Sure, but prove it. Let me see you kiss. Have you ever had your ass penetrated? What does cum taste like?” They both turned beat red and admitted they weren’t gay.

I thought it was hilarious at first, but then very disturbed when I realized they were fucking trapped in this job. And how really fucking inappropriate he was.

But I did learn some important things.

Of the enlisted, all the shit bags came from shitty backgrounds which taught me that your family and environment have a huge say in how you turn out.

That made me realize that systemic racism and poverty go hand in hand and blacks have been fucked from the beginning.

That and you get out of it what you put into it. Embrace the suck, make some friends, and you will have amazing and cool experiences you could never have anywhere else.

But they did show several photographs of the parents throughout the article.

And the article is written to highlight the ridiculousness of the charges and even highlights another situation where much more leniency was provided, showing a double standard.

I felt pretty strongly the subtext was screaming racism. That can be much more effective then focusing on it.

They would certainly get more people to read it and question the situation than starting out as “Racist DA uses his role to imprison parents, blaming them for gerting hit by SUV.”

You and I both know, people would stop caring once they learned the races of the child and parents.

But that way, maybe more people read a bit further, and maybe, just fucking maybe, empathized a bit before using the excuse that empathy is toxic.

Facts

You think that’s an insult?

I’m commenting on a behavior, not a person.

Doesn’t matter if are not OP, your sentiment is clearly the same and my comment still stands.

Your comment, however, screams that you are faux offended, so you can feel like you are on the high road.

Edit: No place I know l let’s you have a vet AND a senior discount. It’s one or the other

I see student discounts a lot. What has a student done that an electrician hasn’t, so that the student deserves a discount but not the electrician?

The right answer: Who gives a shit?

It’s a STUPID FUCKING argument that just highlights a really fucking petty person.

Now if a person acts entitled to a discount, then that is an entirely different story.

I was highlighting the fallacy in your argument, but that was clearly a waste of time.

You obviously don’t know the history of veterans in the U.S. or what brought this type of culture to the U.S.

You probably see the military as an extension of a government you hate (understandable) and think of its members as fully endorsing said government (not correct at all).

That you get butthurt over a discount says a lot about you though.

I thought it was a joke, but people really are butthurt about vets.

History just loves to repeat itself.

Wait, people asked for a vet discount… at a bar?

I can see a restaurant, but a bar!?

You get pissed at senior discounts too?

😂

Whoa, whoa, whoa, easy there buddy!

Don’t forget that piece of shit Lt Gov., Dan Patrick.

I did not give a shit about NSFW games but I fucking hate cebsorship.

Go GoG, I’m going to buy one from them now!

… for the protest of course.

Wouldn’t the fascists even argue that empathy is toxic?

Can concur. It’s a popular poster at utilities too.

I responded to Profthadbach

Essentially there is no real reason you can’t, it’s just kind of redundant.

I wasn’t trying to be a jerk either, just not sure why.

Both require dues and both provide the same services.

(One is for service members who fought in a foreign war, the other is for service members who didn’t fight in foreign wars.

Typically VFW is for veterans who fought and American Legion is for service members who didn’t fight.

I guess there is no real reason why you can’t join both, but it’s like joining two car wash clubs.

If you are a member of VFW, why are you a member of American Legion?

CIVIL disobedience. You can’t give them an excuse to escalate. They do dumb shit, they look terrible on t.v., but the moment a protestor crosses that line, it’ll be plastered everywhere and used as an excuse for escalation.

Fuck ICE.
