    It's a problem when the discussion is being led by musks Twitter algo because that's the only thing some folks are capable of posting in this thread. It's important to point out when people are shitting in the punch bowl

    Just tell them and move on. We don’t need a whole god damned thread derail or subthread within a thread about it. Regardless of the intent behind the people posting the videos the videos unless that are ai generated or are not from a campus/the national protests then they may be edited to show the worst but that’s just part of it. There aren’t exactly many peaceful images at this time.

  2. Stop being shitheads. 

    no one is checking their fucking twitter sources stop acting like your obscure fucking knowledge of who is a propagandist and is a shit poster in twitter is widely known or followed by everyone. 

    keep the discussion focused on the campus events. Stop the extra discussion, this thread cannot handle it because tempers are too high. Stop the ad hominem attacks on each other and focus commentary on the events that are unfolding.

  3. This thread needs to get back on topic. I don't have time to clean it up right now, but this is not a CR thread. This is about the national protests, their developments and the current status of them.

    @PRONG HORN your tweets without the commentary are fine so long as the message in the tweet is not politically related/doesn't add political commentary. There is nothing wrong with posting videos of stuff that does not represent the protesters in a positive manner, that's not what this is about. It's about tying that somehow to the election or any political office or candidate. None of that is relevant to this discussion in this thread.

    @HotSauce is on a vacation and if they go on another unhinged rant like this thread they are permabanned.

    Exactly why I avoid CR and generally avoid DT as well. 

    This isn't true - I think there is confusion on the argument here. Some people are arguing that there is justification in this because they don't like the content of the protest or the way the protest is happening

    It's becoming increasingly difficult to muddle through all the various hot takes about other places to find information about what's happening on OUR university campus. Anyone who'd like to discuss protests NOT taking place on the UT campus, please feel free to do so in this brand new thread.

    Thank you.

    I will moderate accordingly thanks for doing this.

    Looking to replace my Tesla Model 3 performance with another Model 3 performance.  When we got my wife's Model Y last year in March, I found a rate of 3.99% at US Senate FCU, which was at the time a lower rate than the 4.5% or higher I was seeing elsewhere.  Probably a promotional rate.  Love to find a similar deal, anybody seeing anything under 5% APR for 60 months with an over 820 credit score? Lowest so far I've found was 5.24.  

    Yeah dude, interest rates have been raised like 3 times since then...financing anything now is gonna suck.

    You sure about that? 

    I don't even know what the alleged illegality is, but you think it's a fine deal? 

    Paying off a chick to keep her from talking about an affair doesn't sound like election interference to me... But you think 12 people will all not have a reasonable doubt that it is? 

     

     

    Have you read the charges? It’s not gonna matter that he’s convicted or found guilty.

    I generally do not encounter these types, so I can't really comment. My proposal was just a theory.

    Watch the video above. They hide behind faux intellectualism and being alpha and in control of their own life/destiny to oppress and write off women and their opinions/rights as humans. It’s completely psychotic.

    Covid was an exogenous event and while we didn’t cover ourselves in glory in the first six months it “could have been worse,” as Greg Abbot would say. 
    The occupation of Iraq and de-Baathification, and the still expanding human tragedy we caused was entirely at our convenience, a choice. 

    We didn’t have a choice to make those billions of dollars. We had to do it. lol (kidding obviously)

    If you really want to confuse the jackboots, you should walk around campus with AR15s and insist you’re protesting for both First and Second Amendment rights. 

    This is too much for me, but that would be incredible. Pretty sure you can’t open carry on campus though.

    We don’t even know what all underlying issues could potentially lead to dementia - we do know that stress makes pretty much everything worse.  
    As for stress…fatfuck thrives in chaos - that’s not necessarily stress for him. But sitting in court with people talking shit on you all day and actual peasants (how he sees them) deciding your fate?  Thats maximum stress for this POS.  MOARRRR

    I’m curious to how they can even bring supporting character witnesses in. They can all be proven to be completely full of shit on cross rather easily. Trump is indefensible and they have him pretty dead to rights on the charges here.

    I sort of think that the current form of female empowerment includes being choosier about sexual partners, which makes the incel types furious. An earlier wave of feminism included "sexual liberation" as a response to centuries where being "virtuous" was a requirement for women and any sex other than with a husband for the sole purpose of having babies was frowned upon. Of course the latter end of that era involved women who went that route being labeled sluts and whores while men receiving the benefits were considered studs and players. I think what we're seeing now is a pushback against that era. Just a theory.

    I don’t think this is the case. Women haven’t all of the sudden become more selective. 

    some of you really have never interacted with the Jordan Peterson/Andrew Tate/Stephen Crowder types have you? It’s fucking brutal even for other men who aren’t incels to tolerate them let alone women.

    Yep, a lot more people would be motivated to protest by a fascist show of force on the UT campus than whatever the fuck is going on with Israel and Palestinians a half a globe away.

    Yeah this should turn into an unrelated protest called the “We will not be silenced under any circumstance” protest. It should remove anything off the agenda except first amendment rights being clearly trampled on and assaulted.

    Cops are retreating. Protestors are right on their asses chanting get off our campus. So the question, what does tomorrow bring?

    They are fucked. If they truly pepper sprayed and flash banged every student and faculty member and local grad/person who gives a shit should show up tomorrow. That’s fucking bullshit.
