It does make you wonder if some of the instances were onto something with getting rid of the downvote button. They say it promotes discussion over just downvoting without any information as to why it was bad.

The flip side would be that it allows misinformation to not be shown as such as evidently.

While I agree with parts of what you said, and disagree with others, can you explain more about how India and China are the same team? Is that a reference to them still buying crude oil from Russia? That seems like a, cheaper prices, let’s take advantage. Last I knew they were still having border fights, but maybe that has stopped now. For the good of the innocent civilians forced into those scenarios, I hope it has.

I always did find it strange for a child’s bottom to be displayed on sun lotion bottles, but I wonder if that got banned as well? Can’t remember the brand, but if I remember correctly it was a child on the beach covered in a towel and a puppy or something was pulling it away from them. It was around for years.

It was, that’s why the “Trump Bible” became a thing. 55,000 bibles they sifted through, only 2 fit the requirements. One was $60 and the other was $90, both had kick backs to Trump One of the requirements was that it was leather bound, of leather like durability.

Note: thousands of copies of the Bible are available for free online, which being that they aren’t leather bound, not allowed. So they were going to buy a shit ton of copies of bibles made in China to give kick backs to Trump, intentionally. When it hit the headlines they went back and tried to modify the requirements to allow other Bibles to fit.

There are a ton of bibles aimed at children out there, it was a clear money grab grift.

With Musk on his side, I’m waiting for them to announce lawsuits trying to sue voters for trying to leave the GOP

Is that even before they take office? I’ve never known that

He calls democrats, Demonrats. There is no conversation you could have with him that could ever help.

What were they supposed to do? Release nude pictures of abused minors to the public? Or transfer them to the team performing the investigation? Going to say people should have been more vocal about their existence, but discussing ongoing investigations is often considered wrong.

Maybe new cars down have it anymore but km/r were always on my dashboard as well

I can’t see it being more affordable to use humans to farm asteroids than machines. Life support systems seem expensive long term. That said, I also can’t think of a resource that would be worth mining off planet in that time frame.

You know Cuba trades with Canada… France… Italy… no issues.

Charge: “Attempted voter fraud”

That says nothing about voting twice, it says attempting.

He showed up tried to vote, got denied, lied to the police saying that it wasn’t him, and then when he showed up to court obviously has to admit he did attempt to do so, but only did so because he was testing the system.

What part did I miss?

I’d say we can look up what the actual charge is listed as for that state, but honestly I think we might be better off not searching things about such right now.

So I know this can be explained through rounding… but why wouldn’t they just put the decimals in?

“So far, 56% of mail-in ballots cast have come from women, a 13% advantage over men.”

Think this qualifies as a civil suit, not criminal as it is the DA sueing him. Theyby nothing can be pardoned. It will likely be thrown out or some shit. He’ll get away with it as always

Why should a person who goes to the park care about the park?

If people are dumping trash everywhere and all the plants and animals are dying, I assume you wouldn’t like to spend much time there anymore.

Sure another park might be opened, but constantly changing parks isn’t what you want to do long term. If someone buys up the basketball court and turns it into a cesspool of hate, you can unsubscribe from that court and remove it from your park. Adding another one that is nicer, without completely going to a new park.

So if I’m understanding what you are saying correctly this is pro “book” burning. Only in this case it is games. If a group or entity wants to make a piece of history more scarce or wipe it from the planet because they disagree with it, buying up or destroying as many physical copies that exist would work because people legally can’t back them up or print more copies essentially?

Yeah, the Lutherans were the first split from Catholicism and sort of what I would say would be the start of protestantism. Not that Martin Luther initially wanted that, but he wanted a return to basics and a simpler less controlling version of what the church had slowly become. (95? Thesis and what not… maybe it was 99 can’t recall)

Now we have thousands of denominations of Christians, and they all do their own versions of how they believe things should be. Haven’t studied the historys of religion in a long time, it’s crazy to think about how much I’m sure things have changed and I’ve distorted in my brain throughout time when I reflect on the fact that it has been more than 15 years since the last real class I would have taken. Getting older is strange.

Some day it’d be nice to start studying history more again.

Mind if I ask why? They have a radiant smile and appear to be living their life in a manner much more freeing/happy than I am.

I mean isn’t the story that conservatives killed Jesus and 3 days later he woke up?

When protestants started the logical stance that the bread and wine is a metaphor being used in the Eucharist, Catholics stayed with saying it is a ritual that transformed the bread and wine to having christs blood and body imbued into them, like an act of magic performed with superhuman abilities, not people just worshipping him. If they would choose to say cannibalism is terrible, except when we do it, I cant see the stubbornness lapsing when it came to say women can suddenly perform magic after a certain date. But who knows, crazier things have happened in life.
