  3. He can be a bit of a blowhard at times. Welcome back, btw.
  4. Oh, I get that public sentiment could've risen from the 21% favoring the Shah's son in that poll, but I've also read that most of his support actually comes from the Iranian diaspora, so I'm trying to bear in mind that there could be propaganda accounts from that community. Just trying to keep an even keel on this, since so many previous uprisings have eventually been crushed. I certainly hope this is the one that brings down the mullahs, but I keep in mind that poll in which opinions on preferred types of government were split so that none of the choices had a strong plurality. So, sure, they might rally around him as a figurehead for the revolution, but that doesn't necessarily mean that support for his actual leadership as head of state would coalesce. Understand? I know it's nitpicky, but there are so many fucking Xitter accounts posing as independent journos with hidden agendas that I'm eternally skeptical of most of them now. That applies especially to ones like this one that don't show a link to anything.
  5. That do seem sketchy, especially if it's taking the opinion that this is a pro-Shah uprising with no apparent link. I'm sure that there are some calling for the Shah's sun to return, but that's not what this is all about necessarily. Of course, with no ties over there, I don't have any sense of authentic public sentiment aside from that poll I posted a couple of days ago.
  6. This one is kinda hard to watch, not because of any gore but just how sad it is. It sounds like there's a woman saying, "That's my wife!" This is a really good eyewitness account.
  7. I'm no Canecutter, but I do enjoy me some accents. If any of you happen to know any Africans/Carribeans with similar accents, advise them that if they find themselves in this situation as that Uber driver, they should state they are from South Carolina and speak a Gullah accent. Here's an example (video embedded in news article - no paywall): https://www.greenvilleonline.com/videos/news/2019/02/04/gullah-dialect-still-spoken-south-carolina/2653241002/
  8. The insanity.
  9. I've seen a name posted on r/ICE_Raids, which I won't post on here because it appears that post over there has already been taken down. I will say, though, once I googled that name, I saw it was being widely spread on social media. In one of the videos, it begins a bit earlier, where it kinda looked like she was parallel parked at first, and then started to pull out. But she did stop and yield to the first ICE car. Now, I don't know whether her intention was to block the convoy by being perpendicular to the flow of traffic or if she was trying to merge, and the sudden yielding put her in an awkward spot that she was then stuck in. But she did yield. One of the first eyewitnesses seemed to suggest she was pulling a U-ee (funny, I've never seen that word spelled before), but that would've pointed her down the wrong way of a one-way street. I don't know why she would do that.
  10. You guys should put thisnew Orange-4-Life guy on ignore, as I'm pretty sure this poster is PRONG HORN, which he later changed his profile name to BeardIP, but that has now been scrubbed from the board for whatever reason. If you don't recall his posting style, it's very trollish. His sources of information are about as bad as Pimphand's, but he rarely engages in actual discussion and doesn't rant and rave with crazy shit like that other psychopath. For him, it's just a stream of clips and videos, often from obvious foreign propaganda Xitter accounts, YouTube accounts, etc. He's impervious to any appeals to logic, morality, or any sort of discussion. Watch for a pattern in the time is when he posts, as I recall PRONG HORN's posts tended to be in the middle of the night, as if he were working the graveyard shift or from abroad. I'm not saying he's some GRU contractor or anything, but he's certainly susceptible to those types of very divisive propaganda accounts. It's all just rage bait. Of course, I could be off-base, but that's my strong suspicion.
  11. Itty bitty hands. Must be a fascist thing.
  12. I highly recommend everyone get the fuck off Xitter and stop driving traffic to that site. There are tons and tons of other options than financially supporting that particular piece of shit with your clicks, who donated $288 million to Trump's campaign and helped bring fascism to Amerikkka, not to mention all the shit he fucked up and all the starving people he killed with DOGE.
