Saturday! It's time for the Week in LL101: ... we're still having arguments about Dick Cheney? In 2013?  Gays + here's some poo poo I made up.  Gays + persecuted Christians.  How hypocritical!  Evil Muslims + persecuted Christians.  I don't even know. Jamie Foxx is worth 2.6x as much as the NRA spends on gun lobbying, therefore ???

Do you know who else was against public prayer?Matthew 6:5-6 posted:And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

"The Homosexual Agenda" would be a fantastic band name. I'm always left wondering what is supposed to be implied as the end goal for proponents of said agenda in the eyes of conservatives. Everyone is gay? Destruction of traditional morality? Only gay love interests in Hollywood action movies?

It's also a little of "you didn't really understand what that story was about" syndrome. Gunny was a bad guy and was shot by one of his own men because he tormented him so much. Not really the kind of person you should want to associate yourself with.

Depends how you look at it. He wasn't a bad guy, he was just trying to tear him down and put him back together tougher, a proud military tradition. I mean he still maintained a rude demeanor, but near the end he started lightening up on the guy. Basically, if you're an authoritarian, gunny is inherently the good guy, and it probably isn't hard to see D'onofrio as the bad guy. Even if you're not, Gunny's just a cog in the machine...what he's doing is paternalistic, he's far from the worst character in the film.

Nazism was so enforced in the cultural psych that many German families during the regime, even if they were ambivalent or against the regime privately, had to join the Party for social and possibly even legal reasons. Indeed, for many civil servants and young people (including the future Pope Benedict XVI), it was mandatory. A Good Billboard.

Oh, what a complete loving idiot. I honestly can't tell if LL101 is written by a child or simply a very stupid adult. First, May Day protests are generally attended by: - Socialists, who aren't for 'more government' per se, more like 'different/better government'. - Anarchists, who are equally hostile to both the idea of government and the idea of market capitalism, and would like to see both totally eradicated.  - Social Democrats, who are for basically the exact same system we have now, just with very slightly more regulation. - Communists. Okay, LL101, you've got me there, most state communists do indeed want a larger government than we have now. - Labor unions, on account of it being "International Workers' Day" and all. You're not going to see very many liberals at a May Day rally. There will definitely be some, but it's mostly going to be leftists and social democrats rather than liberals. Second...you know what, gently caress it. I was going to write out a big long effortpost about why the radical left doesn't generally like being beaten up by policemen, but the fact that such a thing apparently needs to be explained makes me hurt inside.

LL101 sees everything left of Republican as a monolithic mass of pure communistic evil. They are cognitively incapable of discerning the differences between Democrats, anarchists and Stalinists.

Besides, there are much better examples of horrible 'Christian' actions which are much more contemporary: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord%27s_Resistance_Army Then the person will inevitably claim that the LRA isn't true Christianity (because it's not) and you can respond with some variety of "Yeah, and Islamist terrorists aren't true Islam either."

I'm kind of friends with this guy so I won't push it any further, but the backpedalling is adorable. The sort-of-ironic "'MERICA" thing seems to be pretty popular lately. It's like they're almost acknowledging that the thoughtless nationalism and jingoism is fundamentally absurd.

I saw a bumper sticker (FOR A GUN SHOP) today that said "The beauty of the Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it." (except I think it was "TAKE it") and then in small printing (we were stopped at a light, I was right behind him) it said "Thomas Jefferson" Except, you know, he didn't say that.

Oh for fucks sake, so according to Monticello's research (which I have no reason to doubt), a single publication by, of all things, Free State Press, is singlehandedly responsible for spreading a completely made up quote by "Thomas Jefferson?"

The microwave thing probably comes from reports on bisphenol A being leached from plastic containers and linings when subjected to heat.

There's always the problem with things like dioxins and that is that, unless the effects are very obvious like they were with thalidomide, it's hard to say, for certain, whether they're safe or not. Let's suppose that there is some small, long-term effect from [some chemical] that is produced by [a certain type of plastic, of which there are many and the manufacturing process varied] when it [undergoes some process, be it heating, exposure to UV, whatever]. So already, you can see that there's a lot of things that would potentially need to be studied. Add in the fact that it's long-term (order of years or decades, maybe) and that you have to isolate the effect of that particular thing from the rest of human life, and you can see how a small effect might be lost in the noise. So I think it's not completely unreasonable to suggest people use glass whenever possible. On the other hand, it's not really necessary to say "don't use plastic or you'll get cancer". I think, probably, the best attitude is something like "Use glass if you don't like plastic, but if you're otherwise actively worrying about plastic [assuming you're using it appropriately, i.e. not melting it, etc] then you're worrying way too much. Also, it's not worth trying to lecture anyone else about it, because you have no proof beyond 'Uhh... I personally don't like it.'"
