Pruitt is a very special breed of evil Evangelical bullshit artist. He really is just a terrible human. Scott Pruitt cited the Bible to defend his oil-friendly policies quote:As I wrote in 2014 for the Atlantic, much of this stance is rooted in a very particular reading of Genesis 1:28 in the Bible. Referring to the creation of Adam and Eve, the Bible says: “And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.” Cool!

Dinosaurtrain posted:That's loving hilarious. Of course he can't see the forest for the trees and has to freeride on rent at risk of an ethics violation but I guess it would be too much to ask a devout catholic to have a moral compass. Now that I think about it I feel the most likely explanation is that he was so used to getting away with the sort of corruption he engaged in that he no longer even thought of it as something that could bite him in the rear end.

Do ya'll know that people actually believe teenagers are eating tide pods in some giant epidemic? It's been like 100 kids in 2 years. It's a loving joke, guys. Now toddlers, though... lock your loving detergent packs away, cuz those fuckers eat them some detergent pods.

VH4Ever posted:This isn't related to Parkland but this is a slow news day so whatever. Last night in the local supermarket (San Diego area) I saw something I had yet to ever see casually walking around in public before: a large, silver haired, imposing but older looking white dude with a black t-shirt emblazoned with white power logos: SS and KKK both, and the back said 801 something? I do not know what that part means but maybe the collective brain trust here can help with that. Really just, stuns you...seeing someone walking around being that proud of publicly hating people. I wished pain and sadness to come into his life, but my guess would be maybe it already did. I know hate can't fight hate but boy, I just boiled with anger seeing that guy on behalf of my white race. You do NOT speak for me, peckerwood. Santee?

You do NOT speak for me, peckerwood. What part of the "San Diego area"? Tom Metzger and his hate organization was based out of Fallbrook. I went to Poway High and there were less than 20 black students in a school with 3000+ students. Unwritten Law (fairly big 90s pop punk band) started out playing house parties in Poway as a white power band. Amniotic posted:Santee? Also a good guess.

Hieronymous Alloy posted:If you're an authoritarian, a public shaming of authority figures by someone who should be a weak victim is .. . destabilizing to your entire worldview. What gets me is that they're loving kids though. The fact that David Hogg is handily winning not only the PR battle but the platform battle as well in giving these people reason to back down is pretty amazing though. He already knows how to get them wear it'd actually hurt by pissing off their bosses in getting sponsors to pull said sponsorships. IMO the GOP propaganda machine continuing to punch down on literal children who are the victims of a significant mass shooting has to have some serious repercussions come November though. Crow Jane posted:I think to conservatives, bullying just means "they don't like me/agree with me" Either that or it's "Fake News". Seems to vary by coin toss or something.

listen gently caress Tucker Carlson but social services have degraded to the point where some libraries have become defacto homeless shelters and narcotics treatment facilities I don't think "fund harm reduction, mental health and housing to fix this" is the angle Tucker is going for though but im not wasting my life watching a video of Tucker and Fabio either

AmiYumi posted:“Descendants” translates into Baby Boomer as “not Me Personally; gently caress ‘em” Boomers gave us one precious gift though. The truth of old people. For like a hundred thousand years or whatever people believed that old people were wise. In the past few decades scientists (with the help of computers and old people dealing with computers) discovered that old people were talking poo poo all along.
