This wouldn't have happened if Trump hadn't pulled the USA out of the Iran Nuclear Deal back in 2018.

I'm sure the regime that funds terrorism and has historically not followed through on promises would have done it this time. Hell they pinky promised!

I love this line. Reminds me of the WMD talk during the Gulf War. Gotta stop Sadaam bro!



I'm pretty anti-Iraq war, but we basically had a quarter of a year where everyone and their mother's knew we were going in. I find it hard to believe Saddam didn't move them to countries he hated slightly less than us if he did have them.

The Chinese Communist Party is pumping out war ships and war planes in a scale that hasn't been seen since WW2. One of their ship yards is producing more ships in a year than all US shipyards combined. These ships are modern. They are building stealth warships. Tools to counter the strengths of the US armed forces. And then on the cyber front, the CCP's hackers are active and have already infiltrated Boeing, Lockhead Martin, General Dyanmics and they can't get them out.


They were also massively building housing... Until they were doing it shoddily in a ghost town. Chinas birth rates are horrendous and they are about to fall off a cliff

I'm not arguing for tests to own guns.

We can all agree that guns are much more dangerous than cars. If mandating a driving test is in the interest of public safety, why wouldn't that interest apply to gun ownership?


Cars and modes of transportation are not distinctly mentioned as rights in either the Constitution, or the Bill of Rights.

Also "much more dangerous" is a loaded question. Suicide by gun pollutes the numbers, with most estimates indicating it's well over 50% of the gun deaths. Suicide by car isn't really that big of a thing, and most estimates I saw were from 2.5% to 5%. Removing suicides for both, cars cause more deaths per year than guns, even though there are more guns than cars. I will give you more people drive, but I would counter argue in theory it's harder for a non-criminal to obtain a driver's license than a firearm.

I'm not as cool as you apparently.

Why didn't you attempt to make a better argument?


The true government overreach in this situation is taxes. Taxes are taken from the individual under threat of violence and great livelihood harm, and the government acts as a zero value add middle-man to give our money to whomever is politically expedient/donated to their campaign. Due to the government acting as a middle-man, they then again over extend their powers to act like they built the roads, ergo they have the "right" to control who uses the roads, which they then mandate a citizen has to take a test, purchase a "driver's license", and in most states are forced to purchase car insurance (another government overreach). All of this while mandating emissions (overreach), charging for non-one time registration fees (another overreach and tax), and forcing the citizens to pay fuel excise taxes to power their vehicle.
Most government is government overreach, but damn it you're going to make libertarian arguments maybe make them better so us actual libertarians don't look like morons.
Does anyone else find it ironic that two of the biggest industries that can't shut their mouths on social issues harbor so many "open secret" molesters, rapists, ect?

Tale as old as time, young attractive popstar drives controversy by being edgy.

I do find it amusing the pro business loving republicans who favor privatization of everything, are against this. This is your doing.

It’s a direct byproduct of the Republican pro-business,” at any cost “mentality, and the push to prefer privately ran companies, with little to no regulations, over govt ran entities.

It’s as if republicans don’t even know their potential worse selves. So blinded by profits, greed and commerce, they aren’t taking the time to do the long term forecasting of the potential ramifications of scaling business models like this.

The whole “get mines now, who cares if it wrecks shop later” mentality is so selfish and played out. Especially when you’re already making record profits. We could have avoided this if people could have been more judicial with how we approach


Large corporations are basically government entities now, not sure how that's "zomg Republicans!!!"

Nah.


Depends on the PE company and the industry. A lot of PE is basically glorified pump and dump. Infra and commercial RE tend to be a bit different, but there's still some bad actors out there.
It should be heavily reduced and made efficient, focusing more on helping direct resources than outright provide, but getting rid of it is not the best move.

I struggle to understand the mindset of many young adults and athletes today. There seems to be a strong sense of entitlement, even when nothing has been earned. Instead of prioritizing teamwork and selflessness, the focus is often on individual wants and needs. If my child behaved this way, I would feel disappointed as a parent.

I was raised to push through challenges, no matter how difficult, because perseverance builds true character. That’s the same lesson we are teaching our children, with the hope that when they face adversity in college or their careers, they won’t simply walk away when things don’t go their way. Commitment and resilience are essential qualities, and I believe they shape a person’s success in the long run. I find it reassuring that Jay does not play into those games and treats it the same way. Buy all in whether its going your way or not.


Teams constantly "process" kids that try hard but don't quite develop. It's not a one way street.


Bit of a dark horse here, but Kilgrave was terrifying because he looked human, but it was obvious he lacked something that makes people fundamentally human. So well acted, the confusion on his face during certain parts when he didn't even realize what he was doing was wrong was just so mentally jarring.

Meh all those fossil fuels owned the land once, now they power my Jeep. I've had the pleasure of talking to some of these people, and it's crazy to see how their entire personality changes once you bring up certain subjects, almost turns them feral.

Most people are just earning a living and couldn't give a frick less about what these idiots are protesting against.

you do not eat them.

Farmers want them killed as their colonies have holes everywhere and their livestock can/will step in the holes and break their legs, which causes them to have to be put down.


Thanks! Always glad to make myself less ignorant.
