  1. They disagree in the same way they disagreed with the outcome of the 2020 election. It's all bullshit and vibes and "many people are saying". There's no actual critique there aside from culture warring, it isn't backed by facts. The most glowing thing I hear about Kirk is the LIE that he believed in and preached peaceful speech. His words and rhetoric were in the mouth of the El Paso shooter. His words and rhetoric were in the mouths of Jan6 rioters. He was a cultural arsonist, and he's being mourned by people who like the smell of a campfire
  2. Racists and fascists love nothing more than turning shields into swords. Hell, Texans and other slavers in the 1850s were using the Bible to justify slavery and justify their secession Kirk was orders of magnetude more awful than good. He has no positive contributions to society. He sent EIGHTY busses of rioters to the Capital on January 6th that went on to interrupt the peaceful transition of power and try to hang the Vice President.
  3. MLB hates hometown fans watching their own team, it's wild
  4. I thought it was funnier that they were self-reporting because the game is set in a time period where literal nazis and fascists are the enemy
  5. Good lord, people are going NUTS and using Kirk's murder as a reason to take down anything they don't like. Even the new Indiana Jones DLC got caught up in it, because Indy was saying to a cat in Fascist Italy (1937 Italy, literally Fascist Party members) "you don't care much about these fascists do you?" https://thenerdstash.com/bethesda-under-fire-after-indiana-jones-fascist-promo-linked-to-charlie-kirk-shooting-i-think-ill-pass-on-the-next-elder-scrolls/ Fucking ridiculous that these conservative crybullies are getting mad at the character who loves nothing more than punching fascists in the face
  6. Season 7 is some serious and very grown-up storytelling. The last four episodes of season 7 are up there with ESB and R1 and Andor with some of the best Star Wars made
  7. yeah, just appease the fascists. That ALWAYS ends well lmfao
  8. "they had their chance to retract it. FAFO, honesty" - @Descendant, probably
  9. Huh actually, I wonder if this INTC move by NVDA is a means to jangle their keys and distract the markets from China starting to close off to Nvidia https://www.reuters.com/markets/emerging/nvidia-ceo-huang-caught-between-us-chinas-larger-agendas-2025-09-17/
  10. We did go through three or four classifications from the FBI prior to us getting the charging document, so I'm not sure what you're taking offense with? Use your brain, not your amygdala and lulz, tell me you got moderated on SM for spreading COVID disinformation without telling me. You sure do seem to have a well-formed opinion of me, what's your old sock handle(s)? GRUhorn is that you?
  11. Cancelled our D+/Hulu/ESPN bundle, you couldn't even watch any sports that made a shit with the bundle anyways
  12. Youre conflating COVID denialism and election conspiracies with state censorship of an unfavored opinion. Denying COVID and telling people to inject bleach and eat deworming paste causes real physical harm. Pointing out that republicans are using Kirk's death to gain political outcomes is not the same. Good lord, do all y'all get the same dog shit newsletter and marching orders? It's remarkable how consistent the profa messaging is
  13. It's remarkable how badly mainstream media has been at faithfully investigating and reporting things like this. Pablo has had nothing by headwinds and weasel-word "nuh uh"s from ESPN and other "major" outlets and billionair allies. It's crazy how many receipts he's been able to dig up on this, and getting people on record.
  14. Kind of wild stat - Jensen's individual net worth is greater than all of INTC's market cap. Crazy crazy crazy to see the State leaning in to bail out Intel and set up deals like this that are designed to harm competitors. Intel had a good GPU architecture that was in still in the early stages of development, but I'd bet my bottom dollar that they're abandoning that now since they're getting subsidized by NVDA and DJT
  15. https://www.statista.com/topics/11285/long-covid-in-the-united-states/#topicOverview Prevalence of Long COVID in the United States Because there is no test for Long COVID, it is difficult to determine how many people are affected by the condition. However, recent surveys from the United States show that around 18 percent of the total population may have had Long COVID as of September 2024, with around 30 percent of those who had been infected with COVID-19 experiencing long-term symptoms from the disease. Long COVID is more common among women in the United States than men and those aged 40 to 59 years who had been infected with COVID-19 were more likely to report ever experiencing Long COVID than other age groups. The states with the highest share of people who previously had COVID-19, with symptoms lasting three months or longer are Oklahoma, Mississippi, and North Dakota. In Mississippi, up to 39 percent of those who had COVID-19 reported suffering from Long COVID. It is estimated that over 38 million people in the United States have or continue to have symptoms of Long COVID.
  16. Nothing more trustworthy than an anti-science person posting an unsourced explainer, gotta say
  17. Love it when all the Presidential pedophiles and rittenhouse fanclub members start showing up more when the fascism gets cranked back up. False equivocations of not renewing a contract due to 2020 election denialism (that led to an attempted hanging of Mike Pence) to blackballing someone making a joke about Republicans profiting off of CK's death and not actually caring Same/same. Sure am glad the site has tolerated fascists for so long, it's really improved the community
  18. The password is "muledick"
  19. Compare what they said, chicken shit. Think critically.
  20. @Descendant can you specifically outline what he said was so offensive?
  21. Goddamn, Andor really was cooking. The Ghorman Senator had some incredible lines
  22. Lulz you being a hypocritical liar doesn't victimize me, but I hope you enjoy your State Capitalism. You sure seemed to hate it recently, just trying to understand why it's different now.
  23. Oh no, don't report me to your komissar and get me fired from my job! Lotta that going round these days.
  24. Not an onion headline... https://www.avclub.com/israel-defunding-ophir-awards-the-sea-palestine Israeli Culture Minister Miki Zohar is threatening to pull funding from the Ophir Awards, Israel’s version of the Oscars, after a film critiquing Israel won the top prize. The Sea, helmed by Israeli director Shai Carmeli-Pollak and Palestinian producer Bahaer Agbarian, tells the story of a 12-year-old Palestinian boy living in the West Bank on his way to visit the sea for the first time. His journey is halted when Israeli authorities deny him entry at a checkpoint, per Deadline‘s description. “Determined to fulfil his dream, he sneaks into Israel and embarks on a dangerous journey to the coast, dodging checkpoint, military and police,” it continues. “There is no greater slap in the face of Israeli citizens than the embarrassing and detached annual Ophir Awards ceremony,” Zohar, a member of Israel’s conservative party, said in a statement calling the win “disgraceful,” as reported by Israeli media (via Deadline). “Starting with the 2026 budget, this pathetic ceremony will no longer be funded by taxpayers’ money. Under my watch, Israeli citizens will not pay from their pockets for a ceremony that spits in the faces of our heroic soldiers.”
  25. It's nice when Dear Leader takes a stake and chooses winners and losers, right? Although I could have sworn you were against that idea just recently
