@yungswanky @dummyjig There’s an episode they had to bury where they made a really powerful bomb out of common household items.

Thought you all were talking about how you were going to sink a carrier. What’s the matter? Did someone find out what a real military looks like?.
Yemen didn’t kill a single person when they were taking over those ships and rerouting them out of the Red Sea. America killed an entire crew of Yemenis in the water today. Muslims have always done everything possible to avoid unnecessary killing while America tries to kill.

@bdquinn Media frustration with Biden being levelheaded and right about this is yet more evidence they just want Trump back.

@ChirilovMatei @JackDetsch Don’t be ridiculous. Russia absolutely cannot afford to lose 2 million fighting-age men (equivalent to double their entire active personnel roster) just to take Ukraine.

The RETVRN folks make a lot more sense when you realize they want to be a *planter*, not a farmer.
Like why is there an entire staff parked outside their house? Those are the people employed to create this fantasy life, who conveniently almost never get mentioned

@DanDeBrak Can’t be understated that most Americans in January 2024 did not know Donald Trump was going to run for office again.

@BourbonDienasty @agraybee Temperance was a ludicrously horseshoe issue. Henry Ford, like many industrialists, felt drink was costing him productivity. Many Communists of the time believed alcohol was a capitalist plot to subvert working class power.

@ArmandDoma I think the point of the scene is no one had ever applied “classically trained” high-pressure sales tactics to penny stock before. Whether that’s true or not is an open question.

@un_a_valeable So much of American historiography of Vietnam doesn’t even acknowledge the NVA regular army as an entity, let alone the ARVN.

@ArmandDoma Leftists routinely accuse Democrats of not wanting to actually win elections and just fundraising off being the minority party, and I wonder where they might have gotten the idea that is something political parties do.

@agraybee One of the key jokes of the 21 Jump Street reboot is about Channing Tatum’s character falsely assuming casual homophobia would make him popular with the then-late-millennial high school crowd.

@dieworkwear Growing up and becoming normal sucks. We’ve had movies about this for decades. What’s (relatively) new is the atomization. Some of it we do to ourselves—if he joins a book club or something he’ll get a lot of the socialization back.

@dieworkwear It’s a cargo cult. The belief is that wearing expensive-looking clothes will imbue you with money. Sometimes that’s about infiltrating upper-class spaces (good luck). Sometimes it’s more supernatural.

@un_a_valeable The fact that most people in the US believe “it’s not OK to do coups” means any potential coup is already facing a brick wall.

I loathe the way leftist visions of the future seem to end with “we pass one big bill and then we’ll never have to do politics again.”. Unfortunately, it’s the better of the two versions you hear, because the other one starts with “we kill all the bad people.”.

@michaeldweiss I can’t remember the last time the doom faction was right about something in Ukraine. They wanted to pull out of Bakhmut. They said Ukraine was out of ammo. They said we needed to freeze the conflict.
