Thanks for calling out this bs, was pretty disgusting to see all the tailist edgelords crawling out of the woodwork. I mean, i’m not surprised, given our incel weirdo problem or that the most vocal stans are the most consistent bad take factories on this site, but it’s good to see some pushback against that.

Your celebrity crush doesn’t have class consciousness, he has a personal vendetta because UHC fucked up his back. That doesn’t change that he did a good thing, it doesn’t change how happy i am over the public reaction to it, but the problem we need to tackle is precisely that material conditions in the US at best lead to people doing sigma lone wolf adventurism instead of building a mass movement, and that things are that way is precisely because they are infected with the reactionary ideology you so casually brush aside and ignore.

Being a centrist usually requires a ton of “communism bad” brainworms and being a transphobe always requires a ton of patriarchal brainworms. Neither of these are opinions you arrive at rationally, they are the result of people taking a wrong intellectual turn due to indoctrination, and both of these wrong turns can be found among all kinds of people, even those who in theory agree that Maoist goals and bodily autonomy are cool and good. These people will only agree these principles are cool and good as long as they are not exposed to the socially ingrained triggers of their fears, like a crowd of workers waving red banners, or people transing their gender.

Ah, i see.

As you can see in this video by the manufactuer, the VP9 does eject the empty casings when the bolt is pulled back:

Here’s a pdf about the gun from b&t:

Not making any claims about whether or not this weapon was used, i think @OutrageousHairdo@hexbear.net makes a very valid point about how difficult it would to obtain one and how easy it would be to track people who do that through legal channels. Just saying that the casings found would not contradict this story.

If they don’t like it, they’ll just do what Catholics have always done and follow an antipope instead. Right now there’s one in Quebec, another who’s head of the Palmarian Catholic Church in Spain and several Sedevacantists who all think that Pius XII. was the last legtimate Roman Catholic pope, but can’t agree which one of them is the real deal.

Imagine being 4 days in and still not being able to find someone’s killer using the biggest police dept in the world, larger than most countries’ armies, inside of a tiny city with 20 CCTV cameras on every block

They’ve got CCTV footage along his entire getaway route up until the point where he entered the Port Authority bus terminal. The reason they haven’t found him is that he immediately left NYC in the least traceable way possible. He was already on a bus out of town when they were still investigating the scene of the shooting. Nothing mysterious about that.

I found it really surprising when i heard how low the number of solved murder cases in the US is. Apparently it’s something around 20%. Over here, it’s in the 70-80% ballpark.

It’s not just about lowballing the proletariat, offering a million dollar reward is reserved for people the FBI wants to be seen as a threat to national security. They can’t give him the same supervillain notoriety as some Middle Eastern guy whose hideout is about to be on the receiving end of a trillion $ worth of Raytheon products. It would cement his folk hero status and they know that. They’re lowballing bc the ghouls are scared of where this is going.

Fairly sure that all the No votes came from people who simply think that the federal education budget should be cut to 0.

Given .ee’s notoriety for Wehrmacht apologia, i expect that badge to have a skull and runes on it.

Yeah, he may be a controversial historical figure to some people, but under his watch the Red Army killed more Wehrmacht soldiers than any other faction in WW2 managed to, that’s ofc a pretty big W.

The system can be changed from the inside as long as you follow its inherent rightward trajectory.

Daily Mail’s usual habit of being Measurehead unironically

There are hundreds of comments on this instance posted over the past day that brazenly violate rule #1 “We do not tolerate threats of and calls for violence in any form against any living creature”.

Ok, but how does “any living creature” apply to the UHC CEO?

Literally saying “salaries had to go up because breaking the law is part of the job and now there’s a slight risk that you may, in a miniscule number of cases, get caught and actually face consequences for your crimes”
