  • I just read your other more recent comments. You think its the old dog whistle usage when its clearly the literal Pro-Israel-Ethno-State meaning. I don’t know how you could interpret it as anything other than literal Zionists when the subject is their genocide in Gaza. “Zionist” here includes Biden and Trump.

    Patrol Cop once told me a joke about how he ran over a black kids bike. When got back to the station he saw the kid at the desk trying to report the incident. He’d carried his busted up bike the entire way. The cop behind the desk called out “Hey Rob, did you run over this kid’s bike?”. “Nope”. Case closed. No report filed.

    Edit: PS: This was one of the “good ones”. He voted Clinton in 2016 because the rival faction in the Union was showing up to Trump rallies in class A’s. Took him the entire Trump admin but he works retail now.


  • We let almost all manufacturing jobs go overseas just to cut labor costs and now we’re suffering the consequences and our government completely incapable of doing what’s necessary to bring that manufacturing capability back to the US. At this point basic Keynesians economic policy is tantamount to heresy for anyone but the far left. Its like we’ve adopted the economic policies we forced on third world nations, and found ourselves with a third world economy.

    Being able to produce cheap drones as good as DJIs is far more important for national security than whatever espionage risk they pose. Cheap, easy to use, drones like the dji phantom are omnipresent in current wars. Banning them prevents us from learning via competition or basic reverse engineering.

    Genocide should not be a bipartisan issue. Genocide being unelectable even in just one party is good. If your starting position is “yes, both candidates will commit genocide” you should continue with discussion about direct action tactics. Otherwise I’ll doubt that you actually think Biden is committing genocide.


  • Sounds easier to opt out of those mailers entirely. There’s a website sponsored by the FTC to do it. But you can only opt out of 5 years online. To do it permanently you must print out and mail in the form.

    https://www.optoutprescreen.com/

    AFAIK it works but it reeks of bullshit. First its a .com but its what the FTC recommends. It seems like the feds forced the credit companies to make the website and their really upset that your missing all these credit opportunities. Maybe they lower your credit score if you actually fill it out.
