It's hilarious watching Trumpers briefly turn into socialists when they try to argue that crimes against banks aren't real crimes.

Wait, his OWN TEAM didn't have questions for him, their own client? It's a civil trial, they could have asked him anything, he could have had the whole court room listening to aIl the stupid bullshit he was trying to say in answer to the state. No questions?

I... can't fathom taking the stand in your own defense and then not having any questions from your own attorneys. How about: "did you do it?" "No, I did not." Or "why is the da trying to railroad you." "Magamagamaga".

No questions is unfathomable.

This is the problem with the kind of disinformation the right wing media pushes. If you describe something in as objective truthful a way as possible, suddenly none of this shit is controversial.

I've seen people totally on board with a description of public health turn around and just rail against how Obama care is Communist.

So much of this just depends entirely on ignorance. Kinda why these people are homeschooling in the first place.

That's exactly what Hamas wants to see because that's what gets Israeli to lose international support and prompts Arab nations to invade.

They don't give a shit about the Palestinian people.

OG startrek was probably the "wokest" thing on TV in the sixties. And a bunch of grouchy old men that no one cared about bitched about it back then too.

This implies that your food won't arrive cold if you do tip, and that hasn't been my experience at all.

I mean yeah, that's where the Palestinians are, who did they think was the target of a military attack on a city?

It's getting hard for people to pretend that this isn't a genocide when the people doing it aren't even bothering to pretend it isn't.

This looks like a fluoroscope, basically an X-ray that is constantly turned on. The tech is looking at a live X-ray view, not a film transparency.

The radiologic exposure for both of them is orders of magnitude higher than a normal x-ray that we think about. A normal xray exposes you for less than a second, this is bombarding him with X-rays the entire time he is standing there.

What were they expecting when the government stopped paying for it? We already know the normal American healthcare system is garbage, this is the result of that.

It cost me $400 to get my gf and her son vaccinated, that'll get reimbursed by insurance... eventually, probably. That's going to be a barrier for a lot of people, just like always.

Seriously. People make up all kinds of explanations for why no one actually uses phones but few seem to have noticed that it's because we got to a point where a majority of our calls were shit we didn't want.

Kinda the same thing with the mail. My letter carrier gets irritated that I don't empty my box everyday, but he's the one stuffing it with two pounds of trash every day. I get like two letters a week they are actually relevant and the rest is garbage or actual dangerous Identity theft risk they I have to destroy.

Commenting that Nazis should get punched abstractly (i.e. not a specific Nazi) got me site permabanned from Reddit. They have chosen a side.

So, like, are they going to vote for the guy that literally has "banning Muslims" as a platform?
