His parents paid the price.

You’re absolutely right, I’m just worrying more about mass starvation than about coffee and chocolate. This is the practice run before climate change famine.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but the leftists who switched to voting Democratic this election were dwarfed by the Democrats who didn’t vote or even voted for Trump.

So they succeeded at what they were trying to do, but it was of negligible benefit.

Then stop complaining about third parties forevermore. If you honestly believed that was our last election, then focus on direct action.

Did any Trump voters actually say “genocide”? The ones I’ve met call it “the war”.

That was my first presidential election. Naive year 2000 me thought “Oh wow this is a huge obvious problem, and Australia already fixed it! It’ll be a part of the Democratic platform by 2004.”

To this day, I vote for any Democrat who supports ranked choice voting (or any clone-independent voting system).

Because they’re not here arguing with us.

where are those loud mouthed lefties

my blocked list

I’ve heard a lot of criticisms rephrased as “bOth SiDes sAMe” by the person with whom they were arguing.

If any of us actually find ourselves in that situation, it would be unwise to post about it on the internet, even if someone is calling you a phoney.

Every post we make here is getting recorded by the NSA.

You can always quit meat! The “middlemen” eat more vegetation than you would directly.

I’ve met a TON of blacksmiths and they usually just look like normal guys but slightly more buff, often overweight. The machinery does most of the work.

I’ve forged everything from aluminum to Waspaloy, from handheld to car-sized.

Unfortunately, I used an industrial press and lots of math. Not sexy. What respondents really mean is hipsters with an anvil. Then you’re wearing an apron with no shirt, sweating, and smashing something hard and repeatedly.

See, they shouldn’t have gone with the First Order. They should’ve had the New Republic stamp out the Empire, only to create a new empire itself.

The rational move by Russia would be to withdraw from Ukraine before launching nukes. Nobody wants to conquer irradiated land, and the Ukranians would agree to a ceasefire.

Here in SoCal it’s just a section in every bookstore.

Specifically near the end of WW1, like 1918 or so, that should get them.

It wasn’t even “do what I say or I’ll kill you”. It was “this land is mine” - the establishment of private property. The lords never needed to explicitly make a death threat themselves when nature could make the death threat for them, and the victim is deprived of access to vital resources.

Not enough guns and flags

Or they don’t know that the traps are made by humans.
