  1. You'll excuse me if I don't believe you that the death panels insurance companies won't use this as justification for blanket denials. Because they make more money with more denials, as you are wellllll aware
  2. Aaaand here goes the state sanctioned demonization of trans people [Quoted from reporting] The Trump administration is preparing to designate transgender people as “violent extremists” in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder, two national security officials tell me. “We're looking at the entire spider web for any of these attacks,” FBI director Kash Patel told the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, when asked about shootings by trans individuals. “They,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said after the Kirk murder, are “putting this crazy ideology in our schools,” echoing the growing view of many in Trump’s inner circle that a “cult of gender ideology” is behind an explosion of violence by some as yet unidentified “radical left.” Two days before Kirk was killed, Donald Trump condemned “transgender insanity.” Then in an interview about the shooting, he blamed “the radicals on the left,” saying: “they want transgender for everyone.” “They are cynically targeting trans people because the shooter’s lover was trans,” one senior intelligence official tells me. “The administration has convinced itself that the Charlie Kirk murder exposes some dark conspiracy.” The senior official explains that there is no process per se for dealing with trans people as a “threat group,” but feels that trans individuals will be increasingly targeted under the banner of “violent extremism.” [End quoted block] Damn those TRN head stamps, spreading their radical pronouns! It's wild how the Administration is just moving ahead with their script even if the facts don't line up
  3. Boy howdy are you in luck
  4. *** If you can get your local death panelist to agree to cover it under your thousand-of-dollars-a-year premiums. Against DHS recommendations? Easiest denial of your life I bet!
  5. Holy shit I'm glad my daughter already got her round of vaccines. What a horrifying reality we live in led by people who believe silver and horse paste will protect against a respiratory disease
  6. My guy did you not see the release from AF1? The God Emperor want to ban anything that says mean things about him. Explicitly and in his own words
  7. Here's some more for you, from the main voice pushing great replacement theory: If you’re a WNBA, pot-smoking, Black lesbian, do you get treated better than a United States marine? – The Charlie Kirk Show, 8 December 2022 Happening all the time in urban America, prowling Blacks go around for fun to go target white people, that’s a fact. It’s happening more and more. – The Charlie Kirk Show, 19 May 2023 If I’m dealing with somebody in customer service who’s a moronic Black woman, I wonder is she there because of her excellence, or is she there because of affirmative action? – The Charlie Kirk Show, 3 January 2024 If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and Sheila Jackson Lee and Ketanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been called racists. Now they’re coming out and they’re saying it for us … You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously. – The Charlie Kirk Show, 13 July 2023
  8. Ali Alexander delivered that testimony - I linked the source in the DT thread when I initially made the claim https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/ali-alexander-charlie-kirk-capitol-riot-transcript-b2252572.html (Here's the Independent's reporting)
  9. I wrote that I "didn't feel like paying a bunch of mouse eared bootlickers"
  10. THIS is where we're at with the Administration using Kirk's murder as a fulcrum for their crackdown We're probably at the point of this being a different topic, but it's being done in Kirk's name and under the guise of """never again"""
  11. And outright LIES! Fox has been saddled with billions in judgements against them for their LIES, not to mention their fomenting of the January 6th putsch
  12. It absolutely is news that the 1st amendment has been shredded in the name of "fighting leftist extremism" and avenging a January 6 organizer. If you don't like that it's such a big deal, go stick your head in the sand and don't click the thread.
  13. They disagree in the same way they disagreed with the outcome of the 2020 election. It's all bullshit and vibes and "many people are saying". There's no actual critique there aside from culture warring, it isn't backed by facts. The most glowing thing I hear about Kirk is the LIE that he believed in and preached peaceful speech. His words and rhetoric were in the mouth of the El Paso shooter. His words and rhetoric were in the mouths of Jan6 rioters. He was a cultural arsonist, and he's being mourned by people who like the smell of a campfire
  14. Racists and fascists love nothing more than turning shields into swords. Hell, Texans and other slavers in the 1850s were using the Bible to justify slavery and justify their secession Kirk was orders of magnetude more awful than good. He has no positive contributions to society. He sent EIGHTY busses of rioters to the Capital on January 6th that went on to interrupt the peaceful transition of power and try to hang the Vice President.
  15. MLB hates hometown fans watching their own team, it's wild
  16. I thought it was funnier that they were self-reporting because the game is set in a time period where literal nazis and fascists are the enemy
  17. Good lord, people are going NUTS and using Kirk's murder as a reason to take down anything they don't like. Even the new Indiana Jones DLC got caught up in it, because Indy was saying to a cat in Fascist Italy (1937 Italy, literally Fascist Party members) "you don't care much about these fascists do you?" https://thenerdstash.com/bethesda-under-fire-after-indiana-jones-fascist-promo-linked-to-charlie-kirk-shooting-i-think-ill-pass-on-the-next-elder-scrolls/ Fucking ridiculous that these conservative crybullies are getting mad at the character who loves nothing more than punching fascists in the face
  18. Season 7 is some serious and very grown-up storytelling. The last four episodes of season 7 are up there with ESB and R1 and Andor with some of the best Star Wars made
  19. yeah, just appease the fascists. That ALWAYS ends well lmfao
  20. "they had their chance to retract it. FAFO, honesty" - @Descendant, probably
  21. Huh actually, I wonder if this INTC move by NVDA is a means to jangle their keys and distract the markets from China starting to close off to Nvidia https://www.reuters.com/markets/emerging/nvidia-ceo-huang-caught-between-us-chinas-larger-agendas-2025-09-17/
  22. We did go through three or four classifications from the FBI prior to us getting the charging document, so I'm not sure what you're taking offense with? Use your brain, not your amygdala and lulz, tell me you got moderated on SM for spreading COVID disinformation without telling me. You sure do seem to have a well-formed opinion of me, what's your old sock handle(s)? GRUhorn is that you?
  23. Cancelled our D+/Hulu/ESPN bundle, you couldn't even watch any sports that made a shit with the bundle anyways
  24. Youre conflating COVID denialism and election conspiracies with state censorship of an unfavored opinion. Denying COVID and telling people to inject bleach and eat deworming paste causes real physical harm. Pointing out that republicans are using Kirk's death to gain political outcomes is not the same. Good lord, do all y'all get the same dog shit newsletter and marching orders? It's remarkable how consistent the profa messaging is
