You got any sources? I have a bad one for you, but from what I understand a huge part of the slave trade was castration, which while specifically against the law, was widely practiced.

This source is also specifically listing concubines. Are you splitting hairs on the term “rape” here?
Wes Anderson movies since moonrise kingdom have looked like an AI was trained on Wes Anderson movies. I still enjoyed grand Budapest hotel, but i also really love Ralph Fines.
Agree on Rushmore, Royal Tennenbaums (my personal favorite), and Grand Budapest Hotel, and I would replace darjeeling limited with Bottle Rocket.
Abd if you really really really liked RT and GBT, then watch The Life Aquatic.
He doesn’t need to imo, these things have plenty of inertia right now. It wouldn’t take a lot to get Americans fighting even harder against eachother than we are now even.
I think the only reason states have not truly waged war on each other is that we are part of a union. That’s just my opinion, but many states would simply begin to fail without the feds redistributing wages from states that have good industry and gdp.
Once they don’t get, they will start to try to take, and that fire would spread faster than it could be put out. Again all imo. But us Americans are “a bit shit” to eachother already, to borrow a British phrase.
I had no idea, good on them!
Ukraine and Russia have been using cluster munitions on each other for years. US even gave Ukraine our obsolete stock of cluster munitions to specifically use on Russia. This definitely doesn’t surprise me, and I’m gonna guess they continue to be weapons of war, just like unmanned drones, despite any collateral dangers. Collateral damage at rates of 1 civilian to 1 combatant are now normalized.
Naw, just move them into publicly traded military contractors not named Boeing. You’ll be making money like its crypto and you’re on the inside.
Like .000000001% are represented in Lemmy
I think you have a super healthy view of this dilemma through your experience. As a person who has experienced the worst Down’s has to offer with a very close relative, i can’t imagine a happier thing they could have told my mother than, “your child doesn’t have to be born with down’s syndrome”.
Due to religion, terminating the pregnancy was never an option, so a set of cosmic dice was spun in how positive or negative this experience would be. Let me tell you right now, I wouldn’t wish my family’s experience on anyone, and that breaks me apart to say more than I’m willing to admit.
But he had Russian backing, he was on the apprentice, all those things are true. So if they weren’t true he wouldn’t be who he is. It’s a bit like saying JK Rowling wouldn’t be famous without Harry Potter. Like… duh.
Anyone else find it odd they cut out the likes musk gets? I want to see how many assholes agree with him.
So if Trump wasn’t the candidate that trump is, he wouldn’t have won? I mean he was Trump tho.
Great point. Silencers/suppressors are for the comfort of the person shooting the gun. Those are part of group combat in urban warfare. So they aren’t impacting themselves or their brown shirt friends with muzzle blast while shooting people inside houses or other buildings.
I mean you said it yourself, answer is obvious. Peace!
Naw, they shitty, horrible kids with bad opinions, but if I felt as strongly as you, and had a much free time, (my god i wish i had your time), I’d spend the same time repping this place and less time trying to gentrify it into another political war zone. But by all means dehumanize these stupid kids until you only see an enemy to safer defeat.
I choose quarantine over spending yours days documenting internet morons.
Edit: I’m so stupid, I just realized that’s the problem. I only have time to be annoyed by this shit to the point where I post about it cause I have all this time on a vacation. Whereas this is what you spend ALL your time doing. I’ll be gone from needling you in a few days, you’ll remain here as a super goofy and chill dude!
Thank you for the context so you can see how chill and goofy you are in your “fight against fascism” aka the kids who built and populated this platform initially.
edit
A user in that thread actually made points i 100% agree with about the hypocrisy of using this platform in general with your opinions on it.

Correct me if I’m wrong, a piefed developer specifically called you out for the same reason.
Really, is that the vibe you think you bring to the table? I would have said a steady stream of argument bait. You usually don’t see chill goofy people maintaining entire threads of personal callouts. That’s just an imo tho!
I don’t think OP has a relevant experience, and it shows with these dumb memes.

This is the exact opposite experience I’ve heard from 90% of my adhd peeps. Cosplay shit.
Jesus, if british comedy didn’t exist, people would think English is just for joyless, shitty, jerks
Agreed on all that.
