Tatsuta Age posted:the vietnam war was like 50 years ago Relevance? Even if you argue that the reliability problems of BVR missiles back then is no longer an issue now, you still have to handle the variety of issues a peer conflict can bring; plus the fact that the US has not fought a peer conflict in about the same amount of time! And the people closest to being America's "peers" are getting closer by the day. Edit, we still doing dog tax?

friendbot2000 posted:https://twitter.com/jackiantonovich/status/1152233225345011713 I made a half-joke awhile ago that the GOP would let Trump reinstate chattel slavery if they thought they'd get away with it. I wonder if we're going to hear more of them come out like this and test the waters.

friendbot2000 posted:https://twitter.com/SarahTaber_bww/status/1152190838136549376 How big is the "small farm" movement though? From what I can tell the whole thing is largely a rebranding effort where existing farming operations give themselves a facelift, change up the varieties of crops (but not types) they farm to those you can't find in stores, and charge a feel-good premium.

It seems weird to call it a "movement", but a lot of small farms still exist. Some absurd ratio exists for farm ownership, like 10% of farmers owning 90% of the land, which means all those 90% still have small farms.

I am talking more people in the House/Senate and other higher government positions openly saying so. Obviously that poo poo isn't new to me. However, before it was basically Strom (rest in piss) and Steve King being brazen as gently caress. Now I wanna see how many others start being more honest about it.

Coredump posted:With the effects of global warming making more and more of Alaska less of a hostile and formidable environment I can see the state turning into the “last free frontier” that the more out there types move to. Sadly that’s a far more long term thing. In the short term, global warming means that sea ice goes out earlier, increasing erosion and forcing villages to move away from the shoreline and severely stressing animals that depend on it (upon which villages rely for subsistence), increases storm surges that bring salt water hundreds of miles inland on the tundra, and melts the permafrost layers that prevent the tundra from becoming massive swamps, lakes, or simply slipping below the sea (while also releasing additional trapped greenhouse gasses). Some parts of the state might become more temperate, but the vast region of coastal tundra are hosed. [quote="Coredump" post="496842298"] Also, it’s snowmobile. [/quote] Not in Alaska, at least not until it’s annexed by Canada.

Anyone remember that? You can google a bunch of examples, but the real insidiousness is that a few of the questions were straight up ambiguous and had two ways to answer, so the proctor could rule your answer incorrect regardless of what you answered.

Failed Imagineer posted:https://twitter.com/2020MNCongress/status/1136026394889269250?s=19 Probably related to tweets she’s gotten or smear poo poo. I think she should lose but I don’t think she’s being preemptively weird or whatever. Accusing a young woman in the public eye of being a secret mooslim/man/science project is pretty common across the board and it’s not uncommon for chan psychos to go after young women on the right even when they’re ostensibly on the same “side”. Like, for all that the GOP is poo poo and everyone who runs with them is poo poo, I don’t doubt that keyboard warriors more disinhibited and less stable than us on both sides of the aisle are already deepfaking her and trying to hack her accounts, and that’s grotesque.
