  1. A pillar being down would be awesome. That would effect both directions of traffic. Hope it was an ATACMS that did this, but a Storm Shadow from dear old Mummy is almost as good. From NATO and NAFO with love, eat shit Rooskies.
  2. Even if he could, he wouldn't. The next post Poe makes in good faith will be the first.

    If they continue unopposed, it's all going to happen anyway. Normally, fascists rip rights away methodically, without generating a big enough pool of direct victims to band together and stand up against them. They hit the marginalized populations first and eliminate them before moving on. Our one big hope here is that this crop of assclowns is so stupid and filled with unearned hubris. They are moving very quickly and it's drawing attention that smarter fascists would be more careful to string out. The electoral map for dems in 2024 is atrocious. If the Supreme Court had waited until after 2024 for Dobbs, we'd have been fucked. Fortunately, they were stupid enough to announce their intentions early. I hope they come for everyone at once and do it now, while voters can still do something about it in 2024. The sooner everyone realizes the existential threat the GQP fascists pose, the better.
  4. George Will is still in the bargaining phase. Astoundingly, he still doesn't realize the monster he and his cronies thought they could control has fully taken control itself.
  5. In case anyone is interested in what North America looked like last time when all the ice melted. Ocean front property in Arizona. George Strait is a goddamn prophet of the apocalypse.
  6. Perhaps a good trick for a human, but the NAFO dogs found him almost instantly.
  7. What??? The Qultist movie they obsessively buy tickets for beat "Indiana Jones and the Dead for 34-years Aborted Fetus of a Franchise He's Still Dragging Around for Some Reason?" No shit. No one wants to watch another Indiana Jones movie after that last atrocity.
  8. Didn't @Bama Chick bust out something similar a few weeks ago?
  9. Let me know when the Taliban starts driving Cybertrucks instead of Hiluxes.
  10. Bald Eagle says fuck traitors.
  11. I suspect it's Russia fucking around with the grain shipments Erdogan had brokered. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/un-aid-chief-russia-dont-chuck-away-black-sea-grain-deal-2023-07-07/ Erdogan is many things and an arrogant dick is one of them. He very much wants to be seen as a power broker, while still playing the middle as much as possible. The grain deal was critical to that perception.
  12. This thread might help them.
  13. Can't see him ranting without reminding me of this.

    I believed Anita Hill at the time and I still believe Anita Hill. Clarence Thomas is unfit to sit in judgement over anyone else.
  15. Casey DeSantis will never be first lady of anything more than Florida. The more she and Ron open their stupid fucking mouths, the more off-putting the rest of the country realizes they are. They would have had a better chance of winning the election if Ron had spent the entire time quietly in a basement, like the right kept alleging Biden was doing in 2020.
  16. Ukraine has been a remarkably good judge of what they need to do so far in this war and I'm confident they'll be competent at cleaning up the battlefields after they force the Orcs back to Mordor. If Ukraine says they need them, give them the cluster munitions and anything else they are asking for.
  17. No CR, but in case anyone wondered what it would look like if Michael Moore started taking Ozempic.
  18. Unfortunately, there's a lot of smoke here. They at least want us to think they'll go through with it. Fucking psychopaths need to be eradicated. As per usual, GRUHorn is on here trying to sow the same poorly disguised dysinformatsya he's been spreading for years. GRUhorn-> Satoshi->Immaculate Vibes-> Caponata->Humble Beast->Mullet Free->Midnight Ambler We'll ban this handle soon too and send this suka khuylo on to his 8th username.

  20. Twitter is already dead. We're just watching to see how long it takes the corpse to rot at this point.
  21. This is the way. We absolutely cannot countenance nuclear terrorism. The only acceptable response is destroying every Russian military asset in Ukraine and any from Russia that try to lock onto our planes. Then hit everything 4-5 more times for good measure. Also escalate sanctions and consider anyone buying ANYTHING from Russia from that point forward as an adversary. Want to trade with a nuclear terrorist? You no longer trade with the West.
  22. One of the defining traits of modern "conservatives" is the ability to hold 2 or more completely contradictory ideas at the same time and believe they are all valid, so long as they all agree with their preconceived notions.
  23. Man, when you are getting dunked on by the fucking dictionary, it might be a good time to re-examine how you got here and make some changes. But we all know, Elon won't do that.
  24. Y'all remember when they were outraged by Obama's pastor? Pepperidge Farm remembers. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/ron-desantis-pastor-says-gay-people-should-be-put-to-death/ar-AA1c1Qcs Ron DeSantis' pastor says gay people should be "put to death" The pastor who delivered the invocation at Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis‘s (R) second inauguration has said that gay people should be put to death. Tom Ascol — senior pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Cape Coral, Florida — made his comment on Twitter while criticizing Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX). On Monday, Cruz issued a tweet criticizing Uganda’s new “Anti-Homosexuality Act,” a law that punishes “aggravated homosexuality” with death. “We can string them up above a bridge so that the public can see the consequences of that kind of wickedness.” Cruz’s tweet called the law “horrific & wrong,” adding, “Any law criminalizing homosexuality or imposing the death penalty for ‘aggravated homosexuality’ is grotesque & an abomination. ALL civilized nations should join together in condemning this human rights abuse.” The pastor then cited Leviticus 20:13, the Old Testament verse that says, “If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.” Ascol asked, “Was this law God gave to His old covenant people ‘horrific and wrong’?” Leviticus’ ancient Biblical laws also require the death penalty for anyone who practices fortune telling, curses their mother or father, accidentally kills someone else’s animal, or commits blasphemy. Other Old Testament laws demand death for anyone who charges interest on loans or works on Saturdays. Most contemporary Christians don’t follow these ancient Biblical laws and say that the crucifixion of Jesus Christ made them obsolete. However, conservative Christians tend to cite Leviticus 20:13 as proof that God shares their hatred of LGBTQ+ people. Two hours later, Ascol tweeted, “Amazing how many professing Christians, even self-designated ‘conservative’ ones, are embarrassed by God’s Word. Just quote some unpopular words of God & watch what happens. Many so-called Christians react the same way that unashamed unbelievers do. It’s a commentary.” DeSantis has signed numerous laws punishing teachers who mention LGBTQ+ issues, school officials who implement for trans-inclusive policies, doctors who provide gender-affirming care, transgender people who use bathrooms matching their gender identity, and businesses that allow children to see drag queens. Ascol has previously said that women who have abortions should be imprisoned for murder. He also helped author The Dallas Statement, a 2018 statement that referred to same-sex attraction as a “sinful, disordered affection” and same-sex marriage as against “God’s design.” The statement rejected both “gay Christians” and the idea of gender fluidity. It also called “intersectionality, radical feminism, and critical race theory” inconsistent with “biblical teaching.” U.S. evangelicals had a hand in creating Uganda’s law. The law has threatened the safety and well-being of LGBTQ+ Ugandans. Police and civilians have harassed any people they suspect of being gay. Some LGBTQ+ Ugandans have fled their home country, afraid for their lives. The law is supported by conservative pundits, including transphobic Matt Walsh, his colleague Michael Knowles, Heritage Foundation fellow Delano Squires, and New York Post columnist Miranda Devine. Religious conservatives have also praised Russia for its laws punishing LGBTQ+ people. In 2013, Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute (C-FAM) President Austin Ruse said Russia’s anti-LGBTQ+ laws were a “good thing” that “most of the people in the United States” would support. In 2014, anti-LGBTQ+ evangelical leader Franklin Graham also defended the law.
