I love describing capability development as a series of life choices like going to law school is the same as having a ballistic missile program.

Have you never been to a protest action in your entire life? You literally don’t know what the federales are for. Anyway back to news. Commissars, as if that’s even necessary.

You consent to it, yes. A manufactured consent born out of despair and self-pity. Occupy Wall Street failed so who cares. BLM collapsed under its own weight. Of course! The only movement that gets anywhere is the one that storms the White House and somehow has friends in every police department...

I’m vicariously insulted by your blithe approval for the capitalist’s brutal suppression of your country folk. The fact you can just sit there and praise the police as a local institution and deride activism as pointless and doomed anyway, sealing the fate of the courageous fighting people who...

It’s definitely populist, in moreorless exactly the same way Caesar was. You see, Caesar was not a champion of the slaves. Why would he be? The people voting for him were the middle class plebs whose jobs were being taken from them by the slaves. And those people were, well, The People of Rome...

And the newest GI Joe has a rocket launcher that actually works! Wow!

In any case not whatever you were talking about before, eh? And indeed in this case the problem is that boeing was actually lying about following the manufacturing processes they themselves stipulated as safe and correct. So there’s really even less leeway.
