  • I am beyond tired of “live and let live” when it comes to the religious right, when its influence negatively impacts the world so clearly, and its hunger for complete global subservience seems to never end.

    These people are FREAKS! It is literally a death cult, and its cultists are in charge of more than half the country! They belong in communes in the wilderness of Montana, not ruling the most powerful culture in human history. Not with their hands on the nuclear football and giving orders to 11 Carrier Battle Groups.

    Everyone should sever all ties with bible-thumpers. They need to either give up their delusions or be excised from civilization.




  • For those that don’t know, forced reset triggers (and the later “super safeties”) are quite essentially machine gun conversion devices in all but our narrow techno-legal definition of a machine gun. Much more straightforward to use than bump stocks or crank triggers are. Any sane government would have pulled these off the market immediately and arrested anyone who distributed them. Instead the ATF approved them for sale and then walked it back after the fact, hence this legal battle.

    Militia prepper types are basically saying the use case for these is for squad-level fire support, the same way militaries use machine guns. But then they’ll gaslight you and say it isn’t a machine gun, but also all machine guns should be unregulated.


  • If this were a Democrat as President, we’d be seeing impeachment, and not just “critics say”

    A Democratic president would be facing impeachment votes at every opportunity regardless of what they did. The MAGA party (formerly the Republican party) is no longer a legitimate political movement in the confines of rules and norms. They are a rogue fascist element that seeks the seizure of total power as quickly as possible. They are at war with all of us and they are winning, in part because the mainstream refuses to act like we are at war.










  • I’ve heard that this mess started because Ivermectin was tested in the developing world as a treatment for Covid, and that some of those who took it reported “feeling better.”

    Except in those parts of the world, many many people have untreated, festering parasite infestations like hookworm and many others. So yeah, when they take an antiparasitic compound, they start “feeling better,” whether they have Covid or not.





  • The laws on warcrimes have always been a sort of mutual agreement, and they often end up being broken in reciprocity. One side commits perfidy, the other side is less inclined to take prisoners alive in return, as happened in the WWII Pacific theater.

    I think its naive to think that there can ever be such a thing as a “good clean war” with the international community acting as objective and powerful referees throwing around red cards.

    Russia hasn’t given a fuck about UXO in civilian areas for the entirety of the war, so I don’t see this as being an escalation. It’s their land, they’ll have incentive to take caution in their use.



  • I don’t have links handy right now, but take a look at DeSantis’ Florida State Guard.

    1. Unlike the National Guard it only answers directly to the Governor of Florida and there is no precedent for the federal government to take command of it.
    2. It was publicly billed as a sort of disaster relief agency, but volunteers reported that significant amounts of training time was being dedicated to paramilitary topics like riflery and small unit tactics.
    3. There is also a small (30-50 people) QRF, SWAT-like element to this organization, and it got out that they were receiving paramilitary training from a private organization that currently employs convicted war criminal Eddie Gallagher, if you remember that fucker.
