  1. And hardly anyone is calling their bluff. It’s embarrassing
  2. Come to think of it, you don’t do any of the shit he and/or his surrogates have been doing unless you’re desperate
  3. It does not. It’s been found as a matter of formal declaration that he committed sexual assault against her, but that’s nowhere near the same as a criminal conviction. Essentially all it really does, from a legal perspective (lawdogs feel free to chime in if I’m wrong here) is that it protects anyone who calls him a rapist from any sort of liability as far as a defamation claim. In other words if he sues you because you called him a rapist, your defense is “truth is an absolute defense; you’ve been formally declared as such.”
  4. Again, been sucking for over a year…and just like pre-October 7th for the Palestinians, not all that great either.
  5. And yet they’ll still have their US-based cheering section, as evidenced by the sheer depravity, buffoonery, and not least of all, historical incompetence by our usual suspects in this ghastly thread. But they’ll keep marching in lockstep, mindlessly droning the same popular refrains like the intellectual beggars they’ve always been, regardless of what you tell them…no differently than MAGA, actually.
  6. He would have said that if Vance had pulled his pants down, ran around in a circle, and said “look at me, look at me!” Scott Jennings is a stupid person’s idea of a smart person
  7. “I won, but just in case I didn’t…”
  8. Walz will probably demolish Vance…then he’ll be the one to drive him to the hospital.
  9. And just to add to your edit, even the police in those towns are saying it’s bullshit. But see, that’s the appeal of MAGA: make believe. It’s literally a belief in pure fucking magic by a combination of 1. people who couldn’t think their way out of a paper bag, 2. people whom if you threw their testicles into a drinking straw it’d look like two kernels of corn rolling around in a storm drain, and 3. people who couldn’t whip cream with an outboard motor. Just the absolute worst failures at fucking life look at this shit and see a baby-Jesus-on-toast miracle. They’re beyond reaching and it’s so pathetic.
  10. It was. This past game was a 45/50
  11. You can sub out “genocide” and use “aggression” as it pertains to Iraq and it’s just as awful, in addition to being more accurate. I mean I would never want to associate myself with a person whose moral values are such that they would look at Iraq and say “well at least it was only aggression and not genocide. I can live with that.” But you are correct. Quibbling over what defines “genocide” entirely misses the point. It’s a fucking dodge.
  12. The thing that you need to consider is the 90%+ approval of the IDF’s actions. Like he says at the end, they’re aware. And yet, 90+% of the population does not say that the IDF has gone too far. Well over 90% of their population either outright approved of what the IDF has been doing, or even more shockingly, they don’t think the IDF is being harsh enough. That’s a problem. It’s one of the leading reasons that saying “if Bibi and/or his policies were seen as so horrible in the country, why has there been no effective opposition?” is a valid argument. We also need to remember something else: when Labour was that equal counterweight to Likud, their policies in the Occupied Territories were not all that different from Likud. In fact in a lot of ways, they were worse. The only time Israel ever suspended the use of torture as being a legal tactic for the IDF used was by Begin (only for two years, but a suspension nonetheless). Labour never had a P.M. that suspended torture. Prior to his death, Yitzhak Rabin used to brag that he’d demolished more houses than any Likud leader. And speaking of Rabin, his record of settlement expansion in the West Bank was worse than that of Shamir. Housing permits and constructions went up faster during Barak’s tenure than under Bibi’s first regime in the 90’s. Of course Netanyahu is now clear in the lead on most of the aforementioned issues because he’s the longest serving prime minister in Israel’s history…but that also bolsters what Finkelstein says about him being a reflection of the society: he’s the longest serving P.M. in history. So it’s not like Bibi is facing a formidable counter from the Knesset or from the population in general. Israel’s record in the OT on human rights has been atrocious in generals. We are not living in a reality where any of us can paint a rosie red picture of “well the United States and the more-left parties in Israel could achieve a settlement, but it’s just those damn Likudniks with their right wing Barbarism.” To me, that’s every bit as reality-optional as this notion of blaming everything on the Palestinians.
  13. No, but it is wrong to think he’s the only piece of shit in the Israeli government…or Israel in general.
  14. That dude beat me to it. If anyone could be considered exhibit A for an argument in favor of post birth abortion, it would have to be Marjorie Taylor Greene..
  15. Oh the election will have precious little effect on the bu-fucking-foonery that’s gone on in this particular thread. Other threads? Yes. Even other boards? Maybe. But this one? No. No, the bullshit will continue as long as this needless cycle of violence persists. We’re gonna keep reading the same bullshit excuses and the same bullshit make believe stories.
  16. Again, it’s been like that for almost a year. The amount of bullshit, not to mention sheer moral depravity, that’s been slung around here since October 7th has been absolutely, unbelievably breathtaking.
  17. Are we projected to only feature one member of the All-NBA team again?
  18. You will wait forever
  19. Someone will be sure to tell sixdeadlycobras this.
  20. Marc Elias is a bad ass, which is why MAGAtards hate him so much
  21. Yeah this thread was so awesome before all that. That was the very first instance of shitting.
