"yeah this thread is discussing how the American people are actively burning teslas and dealerships and all that but ameriturds totally won't do anything"
I'm watching news every day about how the Turd Reich is cracking down on anything that opposes them, but yeah the people totally aren't doing a thing.
The pearl clutching of many non-north American people is becoming nearly comedic.
It's always been "you shouldn't lump everyone on that label as the same because they aren't" up to now, so it sure is "confusing" as to why suddenly all Americans bad.
This is not "I am an American and you should let me in" it's very much "I'm fleeing my country for political persecution please allow refugees in from this shit hole country"
Good to know nationalism, inhumane conditions, and good old fashioned concentration camps are acceptable as long as it's "hurting the right people"!
I have been filling out applications recently and one place wanted me to download a mobile app that would record camera and microphone stuff while I filled out the application
Another company wanted me to record responses on a Webcam.
Living in an echo chamber can make one pretty deaf to life's real problems.
I tried being a moderator on a forum once, and after alerting admins and the FBI about csam less than a week in, I decided I was done being a moderator.
It was a forum for RC stuff, mostly diy rc planes.
Unfortunately, therapy only helps you cope, it doesn't let you forget.
I've had more conversations than I can count with people I would never be able to talk to in person, all using our own native languages.
The original posts are in English, people comment in their native language, and I use a translator, then respond in my own language. Is the translator perfect? No! Neither is theirs.
With the way most translators I've used work, it's easier for the non-native speaker to try translating, since the translator might try and use different words that entirely change the meaning, but likely list possible alternatives. A native e speaker will understand the alternatives while a non-native speaker probably won't.
That's my thought process anyway.
Never had anyone who wasn't pearl-clutching or virtue-signaling complain about it. And I've had tons of conversations with people I'd never have talked to otherwise.
See, he ASSUMES there's "no way to win" and that this judge will always, regardless of anything else, strike down things because they're "against republicans/trump/whoever"
Why?
Because that's exactly what they would do, are doing, plan to do in the future, and can't imagine a world where someone else isn't just as shitty as they are.
Projection. Insecurity.
I mean, there's no way to win, but that's because this is one of those things that can't be ignored and absolutely should result in consequences. I'm not hopeful that real consequences will be had though.
Planes? Course not.
Maybe Julian, he's always dragging me to the holodeck for some world War 1 and 2 dogfights over Europe.
Don't look at my starship homework folder...
Hey now, I just said anthro planes, YOU brought porn into it.
Nothing says "we are a free and open community that welcomes others" like moderators banning discussion of poor moderation.
Yes, I do understand what the rule is there for. No that doesn't make it any less hilariously shitty.
Hey, so all the people who told me they need their guns "to fight tyranny"... They're gearing up, right?
