I love how people say things like this with no concept of how hypocritical and counterintuitive it is. You think it morally defensible to "dismantle Germany's economy" and effectively force subjugation and technological arrested development on a population of 80 million? Germany is inherently a powerful state due to having an intelligent and resourceful native population in the 10’s of millions. Somehow the Anglophiles believe Germany to always be unjust in seeking to elevate their status and resources in the world while the British are somehow always justified in their methods to artificially restrict them or subject them to Anglo geopolitical superiority. Ahh yes, the British and French didn’t contribute mightily to the outbreak of WWII because they sought to keep the German state in a perpetual position of subordination but rather because they didn’t go far enough to subordinate the German nation! And this is the supposed argument from the moral authorities.

Germany became a problem once they began to coalesce into a single nation-state in the latter 19th century because the geopolitical power they possessed immediately upon unity was readily apparent to everyone.

The British Empire (the irony of them lecturing anyone about subjugation, racism, etc is not unrecognized by me and many others) did not want to permit any continental power, be it French or German, to arise and threaten their hegemony. When it suited them, they sided against France. When it suited them in a new geopolitical context, they sided with France against Germany. After WWI, the new German state was forbidden to unite with Austria, irrespective if it was what both states wanted. The naked geopolitical motivations of the WWI victors cannot be ignored except by the ignorant and willfully blind. Both world wars were totally idiotic and the British Empire and its domineering and short sighted foreign policy philosophy is every bit as guilty for the wars. It’s laughable and totally revisionist to portray the British as high minded and motivated by altruism or moral considerations. They were motivated purely by power politics.

The problem is that if we continue to ignore the lessons of the British Empire in these conflicts we run the risk of making the same mistakes and dooming our own country to the fate they suffered post-WWII. The British Empire “won” WWII and now their civilization in less than a century is verging on utter collapse. The entire continent now appears at a civilizational crossroads at a time when Europe and the United States should be absolute dominating powers of the world.

After the First World War, there was a great opportunity for the leaders in the West to have learned a lesson regarding the stupidity of going to war with another in the modern age of warfare. The victors paid lip service to the Wilson principles of self determination but in practice they dictated borders for their own geopolitical ends and their efforts to control Germany led to its internal political instability which handicapped all moderate governments and facilitated the conditions for radical political factions to rise. Had the Nazis not ascended it well may have been Communists that seized control of Germany and allied with the USSR and you have WWII of a different variety.

The arguments Tucker raises are certainly legitimate and the delusion regarding WWII’s origins plays right into the hands of the neo-cons and war hawks who can manipulate the masses with the propaganda narrative of WWII, which is why you constantly hear everything compared to it when someone wants to convince the public to support a military endeavor.

Has always been one of my favorite games. Growing up in the 90's Florida was the big bad wolf. Kicked the dogshit out of us routinely. I will never forget the 1997 game where they came into Tiger Stadium ranked #1 and got knocked off.

A damn shame that that game was considered expendable for the new scheduling.

2:30 games are definitely fine mixed in with the night games. I feel like 5 or 530 kicks are better than these 630 and 7 pm kicks. It would help keep people in the damn stands to kick it a little earlier.

It's way too late in the game for this to be accepted IMO. They had this opportunity and gambled it away when they thought we did not have the fortitude to keep the conflict going.

At a bare minimum, the Iranian nuclear program has to be utterly eliminated as a threat for weaponization. If that is not non-negotiable at this point then this campaign makes very little sense. Ideally the offensive missile capabilities should also be verifiably neutered for decades. If this regime stays, the concessions must be of long term geopolitical significance for the United States.

When liberals from blue states love to insult LA’s poor schools and education, they think they are insulting the white conservatives when really this is what drags LA down. Our resident Democrat strongholds and their subcultures…

A significant part of the reason this country is where it is today is Republicans like that have been deceiving us to get elected. This is why in the past it didn't matter if Republicans were in office, we still seemed to get the same result. They are unmasking themselves now that the time for real galvanization is upon us.

Paul Finebaum should be persona non grata at LSU. He has been a mouthpiece for attacking Kiffin, LSU, and the legitimacy of Louisiana courts. He speaks like a biased Gump who despises Louisiana and he did not ever offer a devil’s advocate position to demonstrate LSU’s logic or the hypocrisy of the SEC in allowing a Mississippi judge to overrule established eligibility rules to permit a heisman contender to come back and play. The threats to kick LSU out of the SEC and the flippant rhetoric backing the legitimacy of such a move by the likes of Finebaum should make him an unwelcome guest in Baton Rouge.

Regardless of how all this shakes out, frick Paul Finebaum and I hope the team and school give that weasel no access to anything. It blows my mind that he even worked his way beyond being a Gumptard radio host.

And you think this sensibly applies to pitbull ownership? You’re a superficial thinker if so.

I had a neighbor that proved negligent and incompetent at keeping his Cane Corso contained in his yard. The dog was aggressive towards anyone that was not their family. It made its way out unattended numerous times and threatened people on my property numerous times. Police came out and could do nothing since by their arrival the dog had been contained. It was basically a waiting game until the dog maimed someone and then action could be taken. Thankfully they moved.

The legal authority to regulate ownership of dangerous animals is not in question. A case could easily be made for pit bull breeds to be legally recognized as uniquely aggressive and dangerous by their genetic makeup. There should at minimum be insurance and liability requirements for ownership of uniquely dangerous dog breeds. That could at the least help weed out the massive amount of ownership by negligent retards who don’t need these breeds in their neighborhood homes where they can threaten children and people outside their own homes.

Jamie Davis is a bullshite artist. He knows that in order to have a chance he has to give the impression that he is a good old country LA boy so disgruntled conservatives will crossover.

He is NOT pro gun. That is bullshite. He makes vague remarks and crawfishes when pressed on it. He posted a video on his Facebook where made an appeal about being pro gun but being for “common sense” gun reform (where have we heard that before?) and then went on to refer to assault weapons that can empty a whole “clip” with “one pull of the trigger.” He’s so “pro gun” based on how he keeps a bolt gun in his truck to shoot varmints on his farm and then immediately suggests, in total ignorance of how they actually function, that he does not support Americans owning the most popular rifle in the entire country.

I debated his rabid looney supporters in the comments and pointed out Jamie’s gun ignorance and lockstep narrative with the anti-gun rhetoric of the left. Within an hour or so his page pulled the video which they clearly recognized was a disaster for his phony gun narrative.

I commented on future videos asking for clarification and Jamie aka whoever runs his Facebook page responded with more vague bullshite answers. They then claimed they pulled the video because they realized it led to “confusion” regarding his position. Then when I asked very detailed and simple questions that would clarify confusion but put him on the record plainly, they refused to answer.

Don’t fall for the whole “he’s a really nice guy but” routine. He’s a bald faced liar who thinks he can manipulate naive and disgruntled conservatives. He is NOT pro gun. Any capable Republican would mop the floor with him in a debate and sadly I’m not sure Letlow could even do that.

I loved them when we wore them in the 90’s. :dunno:
