If you're comparing it to Three Mile Island it's not that bad. I mean, sure, that was not a good event, but it was far from the disasters like Love Canal or Centralia.

Even if there were actually a huge political movement to Get Rid Of This One Particular Hate Speech Law, what does Leak only crying about it now tell you?? Here's a link to Section 18C for those interested, and laffo that the exemption in Section 18D for "artistic works" or "fair comments" made in good faith may not apply to Leak's repulsive cartooning.

Lord Hydronium posted:Scott Adams is that "joke's on you, I was only pretending to be retarded" comic in the flesh. But without the self-awareness. When Trump was gaining serious momentum Adams posted that article about how Trump obviously is a "master persuader" and uses hypnotism techniques to sway crowds. Adams has a lot of his ego tied to Trump winning right now and constantly backpedals. He's said that Hillary will win so he'll vote for her to avoid retribution, that Hillary's campaign has another "master persuader" using the same techniques as Trump and Adams, that he's going to publicly support Gary Johnson but vote for Trump because he's afraid that if he openly supports Trump he'll be the target of violence, that Trump being a misogynist was as sudden and unpredictable as him being killed by a meteor (because he can never be wrong about anything) and a whole lot of other stupid bullshit. Reminder that Scott Adams literally believes in The Secret-style wishes and that his horrible Dilberrito failed because of sabotage. He's also been caught multiple times pretending to be a female fan of Dilbert to try and win online arguments.

quote:The Clintons are perhaps the most corrupt political family in American history. The Bushes may be second, but even they maintained a certain decorum in the White House. Neither Bush president would think of cussing out a secret service man or angrily hurl a White House antique at a spouse. The Clintons are at heart common grifters. They’re lying, vulgar confidence tricksters who continue to enjoy pushing the criminal envelope because they’re used to getting away with their crimes. Both should be in prison. Right now.

Nihilarian posted:For a while every other week he would go "well I'm going to endorse insert not-Trump candidate here" in the middle of giving Trump a big, sloppy blowjob in blog form. Once he said straight out that he was endorsing Clinton because otherwise she'd have him killed (while still making it clear he's actually going to vote Trump). He's "openly" for Trump now though. Since I've been regularly posting his blog posts for a while in the RWM thread, I'll present a timeline of Scott Adams' endorsements. His first endorsement was on June 6 where he endorsed Clinton. His reason for endorsing Clinton was that if the left really does think that Trump is Hitler 2.0, then it stands to reason that they would definitely want to kill any Hitler supporters, and thus: quote:So I’ve decided to endorse Hillary Clinton for President, for my personal safety. Trump supporters don’t have any bad feelings about patriotic Americans such as myself, so I’ll be safe from that crowd. But Clinton supporters have convinced me – and here I am being 100% serious – that my safety is at risk if I am seen as supportive of Trump. So I’m taking the safe way out and endorsing Hillary Clinton for president. His second endorsement was on September 25 where he switched his endorsement from Clinton to Trump. The number one reason for changing his endorsement was because of the estate tax. quote:I have been saying I am not smart enough to know who would be the best president. That neutrality changed when Clinton proposed raising estate taxes. I understand that issue and I view it as robbery by government. He also stated that Clinton is too unhealthy to be a good president, as this was when the "Clinton is on the verge of death!" right-wing talking points were in full force, and ended the post with this statement that is hilarious in retrospect: quote:And I can also distinguish between a deeply unhealthy person and a healthy person, even though I have no medical training. On October 8, right after the Billy Bush tapes were released, Scott Adams changed his endorsement to Gary Johnson. quote:I hereby change my endorsement from Trump to Gary Johnson, just to get out of the blast zone. Others will be “parking” their vote with Johnson the same way. The “shy Trump supporter” demographic just tripled. He then went on to use the joke "I endorse Johnson because he only touches himself" three times in later blog posts. His final endorsement came yesterday, October 25 where he endorsed Trump once again with this ridiculous quote: quote:I endorse Donald Trump for President of the United States because I oppose bullying in all its forms. This concludes the history of Scott Adams' endorsements.

 Due to my strong personal convictions, I wish to stress that this parody in no way endorses a belief in the fascist.  -rsRD It's close to midnight and something banal's lurking in the dark Under the screenlight you see a post that almost stops your heart You try to type, but habit takes your hands before you make it You start to write, as it looks you right between the eyes You realize You're making Hitler, Hitler tripe And no one's gonna save them from the burns you're gonna type You know it's Hitler, Hitler tripe You're fighting for your life against a filler Hitler tonight You hear the keys click and realize there's more to what you've done You see the butt dick and you know that the fightin's just begun You close your eyes and hope that this is just imagination But all the while you feel the dark posts creepin' up your mind They'll see this time 'Cause this is Hitler, Hitler tripe There ain't no real defense against the man from the Third Reich You know it's Hitler, Hitler tripe You're fighting for your life against a filler Hitler tonight Your comments fall And the quote nests start in their grim parade There's no escapin' the laws of the internet this time (Though you try) This won't defeat their gripe They're out to get you; there's wingnuts closing in on every side They will contest you unless you change the subject to your aisle Now is the time for you and I to muddle facts forever All through the night you'll tell them they're the bad men in this screed They will concede That they're a Hitler, Hitler tripe 'Cause I can own you more than callout post would ever dare try Dude, you're a Hitler, Hitler tripe So let me set you right and share a iller, swiller filler Hitler here tonight Cause they're a Hitler, Hitler tripe 'Cause I can own you more than callout post would ever dare try Dude, you're a Hitler, Hitler tripe So let me set you right and share a iller, swiller "Darkness falls across the land the Godwin hour is close at hand Pundits trawl in search of takes to terrorize y'all's tweeting place And whosoever shall be found without the nerve for doubling down Must stand and face the rants and shouts and rot inside the tweets called out The foulest tricks will only tread the memes of forty thousand threads And grizzled hicks from every end are posting poo poo to keep the trend And though you fight to stay adult your body starts to quiver For no mere mortal can resist the evil of the Hitler"

I felt like I was taking crazy pills. Apparently actual American Indians will call themselves Indians because being mistaken for a different continent 500 years ago doesn't really offend them. I prefer "Native Americans" myself, but that's mostly for clarity because Indian Americans from India are also a thing. And if you want to feel offended by Star Trek's handling of Native Americans, there's always Chakotay. Did you know the cultural advisor they got to inform Chakotay's character was a con man who had been exposed over ten years earlier?
