  1. nevertrumpers skew heavily toward violently rejecting bullies.
  2. there are a lot of bad faith polls in the system that are used to generate reaction.
  3. Polls are definitely broken.
  4. Yes, this belongs here because the Ur-"cleanup in aisle lunatic" was the Second World War.
  5. Awe struck by all the D-Day commemorations. Imagine having to face that for our kids. NATO prevented war during the period 1949 to 1989. Collective security is the only way to prevent future wars and to keep the bad actors from threatening the peace.
  6. feels like a trap...but for whom?
  7. Critical thinking ain’t easy. Or, as George Orwell would say To see what is in front of one’s nose needs a constant struggle.
  8. SO, the Bulwark guys had a conversation on one of the pods over the last few days about how the feds have taken a bunch of the worst actors off the board which might actually diminish the threat of violence. I hope that's true.
  9. He was born in 1952 though.
  10. He's not that smart. He might know engineering but that isn't the same thing as an education.
  11. Why is Vladdie not there? Oh, right he’s a genocidal monster!
  12. Will he move to El Salvador sooner than later?
  13. And certainly, the brother of the King of England is in them.
  14. Just rewatched. It kickstarts all the feels.
  15. I was noting to some vet buddies of mine that about half an hour to an hour ago (my son is in Germany right now and we talked to him around midnight) 80 years ago, the Pegasus Bridge glider landings took place at the Caen canal and the 101st, 82nd and 6th(British) Abn divisions were in the air and enroute. We stand on the shoulders of giants.
  16. With tyranny on the march **** the fascists
  17. Don’t know if this is real but it’s funny
  18. Don’t know if this is real but it’s funny
  19. Doesn't look like this will happen anytime soon.
  20. colleague at work tells me that Liz Cheney gave the commencement for the Mclean HS graduation (that's a nice suburb of DC where all the richy rich folks live). I gather it was a stem-winder about Trump being poison for the Constitution. According to colleague, a dad yelled out "MAGA!" at the beginning. I guess people treated him like he farted in church which is good.
  21. polls are broken for sure.
