A coworker once told me that the South was doomed because the North had a larger industrial base. I said that sounded like wisdom in English, but it was a joke in Vietnamese.

Democrats pretend to be progressive the way Republicans pretend to be Christian. Just a virtue signal that can be jettisoned the instant it becomes inconvenient to power.

For every 100 sexual assaults reported to the police against girls and women, only 18 lead to a prosecution.

So imagine what that number looks like for all sexual assaults against women and girls.

No State government gives a tiny shit about women getting raped. It’s just a cudgel to punish poor men and maintain the illusion that law enforcement protects women in America.

Just look at how much better Afghanistan is after we toppled the Taliban.

The problem with Loomer isn’t her face.

It’s time to cut Israel loose and let them deal with the consequences of the shit they’ve done.

This is an opportunity. Somebody needs to tell him that pulling the leash on Israel would guarantee the prize. We could have a parade at the awards ceremony. Red carpet, real celebrities, and everything.

It would still only be the second most embarrassing Peace Prize given to a sitting president.

It’s really hurtful to the mind of a kind-hearted person.

The messed up part is that the people who voted for this think they’re doing good. There are a few moral monsters of course, but most of the people who participate in historic crimes think they’re helping.

Palestinians have the right to defend themselves.

These people are not talking about the science biology, but the epistemic authority of biology and science because “God’s will” doesn’t play like it used to.

Their ideology demands that biology confirms their priors. Don’t bother to check. If some egghead denies it then biology is being political, woke, and distorted.

Of course a suicide would have advance knowledge of their own death. It’s not unusual for suicidal people to lie about their own mental health. Especially to their closest loved ones.

What you point out could only support a vague suspicion; a motive to look for compelling evidence. Hanging a whole murder conspiracy on evidence this thin is not the product of critical thought.

Are you implying that S.Carolina isn’t backward enough?

This must have been planned well before the strike on Russian airbases (which itself was in the works for over a year).

No disrespect to Ron Pearlman, but, because of drones, war has changed.

Cops be like: I can’t be a racist, look my wife’s eye is black!

It’s funny that you state “Yes that’s how democracy works” only to go on to explain that democracy not only doesn’t work, but can’t.

So we get an election between Adolf Hitler and Sheriff James Davis?

In a speech in the 20s, Hitler was complaining about German soldiers who were kept as POWs long after French, English, and American troops had been released. He blamed this on the Jews, who he considered to be in charge of Wiemar Germany.

To this point he said that one day he’d see the Jews in camps; to see how they like it. Hitler recognized the Jewish people’s capacity to suffer. That was the point.

The Sadist must be empathetic. How can you enjoy someone’s suffering if you can’t recognize it?

The truth is that empathy is present and necessary for the worst kinds of Evil.
