I think we all agree dreadlocks are ugly and gross no matter who has them. But we disagree that cultural appropriation matters. Objectively it doesn't since culture is abstract and abstract things are fluid.

White dreadlocks are stupid and gross because unlike black dreadlocks, to get white hair to do that the hair has to be tangled and gross. White hair isn't meant to be loc'd, those are just matted pigtails.

Other than maybe the occasional individual, no white culture had dreads for thousands of years (if we even had them, there's little to no evidence of dreadlocks in Europe) until they were brought to light by modern black culture.

Man, I'm not good at introductions but here I go, I guess, warning because I'll probably have a lot of grammar/spelling errors I'm still working on that and probably because I'm high too. I'm a college student, 21 yrs old. I discover Mgtow when I was a Jr in HS by stumbling upon an article about 50% marriages end up in divorce and then I do some research, learned about mgtow, look up youtube videos, and forums, and that's how I end up here. Now the question that I'm gonna present y'all please have an open-mind when it comes to the religion aspect. Well if you are christian you know when you die you supposedly go to heaven or hell depending if you were good or bad in your lifetime. So my question is wouldn't be interesting to know the male/female ratio population of heaven and hell if they do exist? I'm just gonna make a bold statement and said that there are more man in heaven than women, and in hell there are more women than man. I know the problems this may implied in my statement.I know people die every single day/hr/mins etc..., also I take into account that most likely more man are dead than women because of a lot of wars, but i still believe in that; I know I cant prove it but you cant prove I'm wrong either. Now you may ask why knowing the population of heaven and hell is important or gave a fk about it. Well by knowing it would prove who of the two genders is the one who tends to be more good and the other one tends to be bad. Just look at Eve from Adam and Eve well you know how that turn out; When I read that story the only thing I came with the conclusion was Eve fk up and didn't want to get punished alone so she f*k Adam too and both get the punishment. That just gave me a bad impression of all women overall. Anyways, knowing who of the 2 genders are more likely to go after they die it would make the other gender who gets the short end of the stick behave better when the are alive and not being cnts. also it would be nice if we are able to tell what's the most likely reason why a man or a girl goes to hell; For example the #1 reason why a man would go to hell is because they kill and women #1 reason why they go to hell is because they, cheat, cuck, and backstabbing. Hopefully by knowing that would reduce the chances of people going to hell taking into account the #1 reasons why the would go to hell in the first place and change their behavior man kill less and girls start to comprehend Drake's words "These Hoes Ain't Loyal" and start to cheat, cuck, and back stab less. But unfortunalety I doubt girls would change their behavior. Hey at-least I can remind women every time they being a hoe they most likely going to hell hahaha :D. I finish, I would like to know your opinion about this. Please no female response y'all can keep it where the sun don't shine :D. Ps this :D is a smiley face if y'all didn't know.

From what I can parse, Ambassador Stevens may have been at least aware that Syrian rebels were acquiring arms like shoulder-fired anti-air missiles (not necessarily American Stingers, but stuff like Russian SA-7s that you can find just about anywhere in conflict zones) from the toppled Gaddafi government's stocks. The CIA may or may not have been involved in the Syrian rebels getting these missiles.

That's about it. The rest is a bunch of crazy extrapolation ("Stevens may have known about the Syrians getting AA missiles from Libya, therefore he must have been buying back CIA-supplied Stingers!) or things that straight up didn't happen: the mysteriously July 25th 2012 Chinook being hit by an unarmed Stinger has no sources except conspiracy theorist websites. This incident never could have been traced to the CIA, by the way, because you don't arm Stinger missiles. They're disposable launchers that come with the missiles sealed into their launch tubes. You do have to go through procedures to prepare the launcher and acquire a lock, but you never once touch the missile to arm it (unlike RPG-7s, where there is a safety cap on the rocket that has to be removed to allow it to detonate). This is the entire preparation process:

quote:

Note: The Stinger should only be fired from a standing position. When firing, place your left foot forward and lean forward slightly. Do not fire at an angle greater than 65 degrees.

The BCU becomes extremely hot 3 minutes after activating and will be too hot to touch for 30 minutes. Do not discard it into dry brush, grass, or any other flammable materials. Only handle the BCU by the plastic cap on the bottom.

1) Remove the BCU receptacle cap by twisting it counterclockwise and pick up a BCU. Check that the heat indicator on the bottom of the BCU is pink and insert it into the receptacle in front of the pistol grip and turn it clockwise until it locks into place.
2) Unfold the antenna and check for damage.
3) Remove the front-end cap with your left hand.
4) Flip up the sight assembly.
5) Keep your target in the upper-range ring circle while tracking.
6) Press the safety and actuator device forward and down until it clicks.
7) For 3-5 seconds, the weapon begins to warm up. When you hear the gyro spinning, the weapon is ready.
8) Listen for the acquisition tone, then hold down the uncaging switch with your left thumb. If target acquisition is lost (the tone will get quieter), release the uncaging switch, acquire the target again, and hold the switch again. The tone should get louder and steadier.
9) Elevate the Stinger about 10 degrees to compensate for gravity and place the target in the center, left, or right reticle on the sight depending on which direction the target is moving (you want to lead the target).
10) When firing, hold the trigger and uncaging switch for three seconds after firing, then release.
