Fuck the Saudi’s
That’s really all that needs to be said about it. All this flowery talk about “fair competition” and “getting together” is background noise. The LIV is just another Saudi endeavor at sportswashing. That’s all this is. It’s no different than when they forayed into WWE (John Oliver had a great piece on that) or when Qatar and Russia hosted the last two World Cups or when Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union hosted summer olympiads. This happens all the time, and it shouldn’t surprise anyone that this “tour” is both using Donald Trump courses and trying to portray itself as the proverbial USFL of golf. What does surprise me is how easily some people fall for this shit.

What evidence are you basing this on? Because in the barest, most technical sense you're correct - but ISPs do things like force you to their DNS and CDN servers by hard coding it into the modem, which does measurably impact performance. Sure, you can buy and configure your own edge router to do it properly, and then it's pretty fuckin nice to have fiber gigabit (just saying), but 95% or more of their customers probably won't do that.
Because there's no privacy rules or neutrality rules in place, the ISPs can harvest your raw traffic data and sell it to advertisers (or literally anyone who's buying) and do shitty things like injecting additional ads into pages, which is also a significant security risk on top of everything else. Oh also, the ISPs don't have to report data on throttling, so of course there's """no throttling""". Why the fuck would they out their own sheistyness?
I really don't understand your hate for net neutrality.
He does not either. It’s hard to understand one’s own hatred of an issue when they don’t even understand the issue.

Trumpers don't watch CNN.
The people who watch CNN, don't like TrumpBy featuring Trump, CNN has pissed off people who liked them, without gaining any additional people who weren't going to watch it anyway. Trump isn't hurt by this (he isn't hurt by much of anything), only CNN is hurt. Whoever made the decision should be fired and shamed.
This. I mean I don’t watch cable news just as a matter of sanity and sound decision making practices, but I know enough about it to know that they who watched Fox for decades consider CNN to be the “Communist News Network.” They were not looking to jump leftwards to CNN when Fox fell apart with this lawsuit. They just want equally nutbaggish networks that don’t owe three quarters of a billion dollars in defamation suits (at least for the moment). Motherfuckers who watch Fox News don’t watch it to be informed. They watch it to have their pre-existing opinions validated. CNN ain’t doin that.

And I almost forgot to add, those prepubescent losers got the #1 pick 4 times in a span of 27 years ('76, '83, '84, and '02). The last 3 were over a span of 20 years and included Ralph Sampson, Akeem Olajuwon and Yao Ming; all HOF'ers. Who the fuck do they think they're kidding?

Absolutely they wanted the Spurs. Diplomacy states they don't say that, overtly, but doubtless.
I mean, the Pistons were in play. And apparently during the actual lottery ball selection, the Wizards had a good chance.

Cleveland had four #1 overalls in 12 fucking seasons. But sure, let's all talk about how fucking rigged it is for the Spurs to land it at a clip of once every dozen fucking years. Once again, stupid motherfuckers with their ideas of a smart thing to say.

Well, the way the Carter Page warrant was obtained was anything but commendable and we should all agree on that.
That's within the margin of "FBI are cops and do shitty things" standard error.
And it should be abundantly clear that Russia believes it has an ally or has made an ally in the Trumpy right wing.
It should also be abudantly clear that Russia sucks and is entirely too close to the Trumpy right wing.
QED Trump sucks.
As I’ve often said even before the Mueller Report was released, even if the very worst of the allegations about Trump re: Russia were 100% true, they barely constitute a blip on the radar in terms of the shittiest things he’s done since 2015.
I do love seeing all his sycophantic followers gushing over this news as if it changes everything…or even anything. Reminds me of…

Fuck this timeline.
I mean...that should not surprise anyone with a modicum of honesty and/or a conscience. This is what these people do: they take, at least what they view as, the most outrageous element of some service provider and morph it into an entirety with their little chickenshit emotional appeal gimmick. Planned Parenthood's abortion services accounts for somewhere between 3-12% of what they do, which means at least 88% of what they do is exactly not that. Third trimester abortions constitute less than 1% of total abortions, and virtually all of those are triggered by some sort of medical complication that arose late while the rest have to do with restricted access...
...but the same people you're describing would have us (and themselves) believe that all Planned Parenthood does is perform partial birth abortions on women who just suddenly changed their mind about the whole having-a-child thing because they suddenly realized it interfered with some trip to Cabo. They're easily the most dishonest people you'll encounter in terms of political discourse, so it shouldn't surprise you at all that douchebags like Paxton are doing this type of horseshit either. This is just more of the same: the so-called "party of small/limited government" taking a huge interest in what other people do with their peepee parts.

Fox isn’t a news network. It’s a propaganda arm of the Republican Party masquerading as a news network. They traffic in lies and that’s what their viewership wants. The results are in and there’s no use pretending otherwise. They’re a 24-hour campaign ad. They’re Pravda for Republicans.
They’re a de facto platform for a bizarre collection of social media personalities and the “political party” for whom they carry the water have adopted that same principle as an electoral strategy. Let’s all just sit back and let them continue because they’re on their asses and from said asses do they absolutely love to tell everyone willing to listen to their feeble effluvia that they “own the libs.” Nothing guarantees consistency in failure better than when said failures are absolutely convinced of their own success.

Vince took over creative last night at RAW. WWE is going to be a shit show for the foreseeable future.
He has always been in control of creative. Even when he took that brief hiatus, there’s no doubt he was constantly in Steph and HHH’s ears about it.

Nope.
Hell the Supreme Court had to be asked whether or not they could intervene on behalf of a federal judge who had been convicted and sent to fucking prison and still wanted to be a judge from the inside of his cell.
The House voted to impeach, Senate voted unanimously to remove, and this motherfucker actually wanted the SCOTUS to overrule the removal.
But the point is it took acts from both chambers of congress to stop that freak from being a federal judge inside a goddamn prison cell since there is no explicit rule against it. So of course a criminal conviction doesn’t preclude Trump’s run.
And personally, I don’t want it to. I want Trump to be their nominee. He has no chance to win, and the more damage to the GQP his lingering in the mainstream of it, all the better.
As to Trump having a jury rule against him today…

To be fair to Donald, he has made more than a few wisecracks about his attraction to his own daughter. And like the rest of his attempts at humor, they don’t come across as funny, but rather awkwardly horrifying.
Of all the mysteries surrounding so many millions of American’s fascination with that piece of shit, the one which baffles me most is why people think of him as a ‘real man’s man’. His wife hates him, he has to pay for sex, he had an oddly tiny dick for such a big guy, his three wives have all cheated on him, and he openly talks about dating his daughter, and ignores the ugly one. It the literal opposite of masculinity.
It’s because he says the right words in the right tones. The people who are attracted to him are insanely superficial. Seriously that’s all that needs to be said about it.

I would like to add one thing.
Nowhere in the bible does it say to force your beliefs on another.
Nowhere in the bible does it say to be political and try to mold the world into its morality.
In fact, this:"Giving to God what belongs to God means seeing the face of God in every human being and respecting the dignity of each person and defending his or her right to life...”
O Could go on, cut there's no reason
That’s all well and good, but here’s the problem:
Far too often, religious people will read into their holy texts things they do not say, and then they will not read what it does say. So they read in between the lines, but they don’t read the lines.

This thread isn't about faith and beliefs, which are personal things. Per the title, it's about weaponized religion and the separation of church and state.
See, that’s the thing. There are people who cannot for the life of them understand the difference between the two. Interestingly, they who are guilty of this overwhelmingly tend to be on the same side of the aisle of this bullshit. It’s almost as if it’s an institutional blind spot.

In terms of corporate business fucks tolerating it in order to profit? Yeah. Greg Norman isn’t the only one that refers to the murder of Jamal Khashoggi as “a mistake.”
But in terms of what the public tolerates? Not a chance. https://www.vox.com/platform/amp/2020/1/6/21050019/saudi-arabia-poll-unpopular
And that’s what my point was: it’s just pure confusion to speak of this “tour” as if it were the USFL of pro golf. It isn’t. This is not some admirable story about some upstart, underdog sports organization fighting uphill against the evil forces of the PGA Tour. But they certainly love to project that image. Gee, I wonder why.
