I say tacos, but everyone else says bbq

I squeal in protest, because I voted yet did not receive my desired outcome; everyone knows that tacos are the more ethnically enriching option, and supports a minority-owned business besides

Except a BBQ place has a good chance of being run by a Black person. You should have gone to the hood BBQ joint where they wash the meat first.

BBQ places have a hidden secret of having the best tacos, because they already have smoked meat.

Narcissism can't be the only explanation for the "I voted but nothing I care about changed" mentality, especially not for the people who invest themselves into it constantly.

Well, there's a large dose of dunning-kruger too, where they routinely portray themselves as having expert knowledge on any given field when their research amounts to skimming a couple of 'correct opinion' twitter threads

People make fun of hysterical woke leftists but at least they match the rhetoric up to the level of the threat they purport.

People make fun of hysterical woke leftists but at least they match the rhetoric up to the level of the threat they purport.

I just see the "threat" as part of the rhetoric, in some cases I think they up the "threat" to match the rhetoric rather than the other way around. I also tend to focus more on the revealed preferences of their actions in response to the existential threat: Ban people from my video game forum and Twitter.

RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - Richmond Police credited a "hero citizen" on Wednesday who provided a tip that they say prevented a mass shooting on July 4 at Dogwood Dell.

Police Chief Gerald Smith said Wednesday that the tip led investigators to the 1000 block of Columbia Avenue. Julio Alvarado-Dubon, 52, was arrested before the July 4 event and charged with being a non-U.S. citizen in possession of a firearm. After the event, police arrested Rolman Balacarcel, 38, who faces the same charge.

Police said the suspects were roommates.

Police seized two assault rifles, one handgun and more than 200 rounds of ammunition

Good.

Would they have done the same if the suspects were white MAGA dudes instead of non-U.S. citizens?!

So what I'm getting from this is "heroic white person prevents mass shooting from an evil illegal immigrant, the obvious, most likely mass shooter, definitely not a white person"

May as well change the law to "too brown person has a weapon"

Maybe so but as PoliERA proves you can allege that and also just the rather limp "well, vote... But don't expect anything out of it for several decades though. Don't blame the party either."

An awful big chunk of this country is clamoring for a Smedley Butler "solution" towards street crime, and it wouldn't surprise me if some ambitious governor somewhere decides to use the national guard to do just that. There were a lot of people during the Minneapolis protests who thought the military couldn't possibly be worse than the cops.

They actually would be better since they have actual trigger discipline and rules of engagement.

Methodology

Using Google Ads Keyword Planner, the annual search volume for each of the following terms was found for each country in the world:

    Houses in [country]
    [Country] property
    Moving to [country]
    Relocating to [country]

This process was then repeated for each country in the world, taking a total of the searches across all four search terms, to reveal where each country wants to relocate to the most.

Note that searches within the same country were removed from the results.

In addition, all searches were carried out in English, as results in native languages proved to give inconsistent results.

This and if you're talking "trigger discipline" and "rules of engagement" you're already way past the point of peaceful police presence alongside a demonstration anyway.

They have such a weird understanding of women, like this when talking about a nude character from Elden Ring:

Sexualized but as tastefully done as can be expected from a team of men. Basically like a Renaissance painting.

I have a lot of friends from Canada that took jobs in Silicon Valley/Seattle years ago and have been happily working down their for years.

The events of the last few years have almost all of them moving back, not only that but they are taking people with them.

The fact that most employers now let people work remotely from wherever they want combined with recent events a number of recent events over the past 2-3 years like Donald Trump, Roe Vs Wade, Gun Violence, BLM Riots.

There is going to be a massive brain drain out of the USA in the coming years due to decisions that have happened and are happening today.

BLM riots?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/canada-most-searched-country-to-relocate-to-google-analysis-shows.604827/page-3#post-89643072

Yes unfortunately, maybe BLM riots was not the correct word but some of the anarchy that came from those rallies obviously played into the decision of at least two couples I know that left the USA.

I had some friends who lived in capitol hill right outside the Chaz Zone and despite being mixed race and in support of the cause and participating in the a number of rallies the whole experience with the Chaz Zone made them feel completely unsafe.
This wasn't the entire reason for their departure though but definitely would get videos from them with gunshots going off in the background and them jokingly saying they were living in a warzone at that time. These are people that wouldn't have even seen a gun or heard a gunshot prior to moving down the states.

I also had some friends in Riverside California, same thing, were in support of the cause and participating in a number of the rallies but seeing smashed up windows and boarded up businesses in combination with everything else that was happening with COVID and surging COVID cases and "freedom" rallys they up and left (though they ended up moving back to Australia because that's where his wife was from). Also it sounded like in general, southern California suburbs seem like a terrible place to live.

I also had some friends in Riverside California, same thing, were in support of the cause and participating in a number of the rallies but seeing smashed up windows and boarded up businesses in combination with everything else that was happening with COVID and surging COVID cases and "freedom" rallys they up and left (though they ended up moving back to Australia because that's where his wife was from). Also it sounded like in general, southern California suburbs seem like a terrible place to live.

lmao.  what a twist.

LOL, thread locked.

Fucking arseholes. He doesn't have any prior history.

The peons on that shithole are too scared to question this, but I would love for one of them to drop the question in the "constructive feedback" thread.

All I could find was this:

Used a bad source but the point still stands.



Should she be fired as well then? 🤔

However much of a grudge you might have against US police forces, the only way you'd want US military doing that job instead is if you literally pay zero fucking attention to how the US military conduct themselves in foreign police actions (so, resetera then).

The absolute worst of the worst instances of police brutality on US soil don't hold a fucking candle to Abu Ghraib shit.

This and if you're talking "trigger discipline" and "rules of engagement" you're already way past the point of peaceful police presence alongside a demonstration anyway. I doubt throwing soldiers in is the solution to police escalating "militarisation" (which undoubtedly is happening and is a huge problem as seen recently).

Also they're talking about the National Guard.  There's even less training for them versus full time active duty military.  One weekend a month and two weeks a year doesn't exactly turn out the best and brightest.  Most of them just join to get some extra money/benefits, and the drills/training is an excuse to get away from work/family and get loased with their buddies.

It's like getting a perfect bulls-eye on a shooting range for almost every target until the last one where you just drop the gun and it misfires into your ass.

 

It's really a lot more like, there's just no fucking pleasing some people.

I remember the days when they kept claiming that all they want is simply diversity in the designs. No surprise that this turned into "why is there a sexy character among those 9 other ones" 

Rock chick wears low cut top. How unrealistic!!!

Africa has traded one colony rule for another

Africa is a whole continent, there were several colonial rulers.

I mean, Anti-Blackness is a worldwide industry; not to say it doesn't have it's roots in colonialism but never discount America's pop culture hegemony; if it's a place that knows how to pronounce and use the term coke they also know how to pronounce and use the n word.
