Dunno, though it looked like there were some transformer explosions and I could see some lights on in the video, so I think not.

It also started right next to the highway, which means it was probably an overheated car or a cigarette butt that started it.

It also doesnt' matter what is starting them. You will never stop the fires and they will only get worse.

Nah, PG&E only operates as far south as Bakersfield.

The answer of course is no. Same with the imprisoned members of MOVE. Forgiveness only applies to white people that murder black people.

The worst part about this is how it’s an obvious quid pro quo for opening Trump Towers Istanbul. If we somehow avoid a full fascist takeover in 2020, Trump needs to be charged with war crimes, full stop.

Plus it's like, this is exactly what everyone said/joked would happen if, by some insane confluence of circumstances and alien control or whatever, Trump were to become President. It's been the presumption of what a Trump presidency would look like since, like, 2000 or whenever he started toying with the idea. He'd just sit in the Oval Office making deals to build Trump Towers in all kinds of countries we shouldn't be going anywhere near, and selling out all our country's poo poo to do it. It was basically a meme for decades for god's sake

So then we elect him president, he does exactly that, and here we are making shocked Pikachu face.

The bar for conservative intellectual is so low you can trip over it.

One of the best descriptions of this was the Zizek/Jordan Peterson debate. Slavoj would constantly delve into 200 years of socialist/communist theory and quote the hell out of it. Peterson never had a response and would just speak obliquely about personal rights or whatever. A twitter commenter pointed out that for a leftist there's tons of theory to read and help refine your beliefs. To be a conservative/libertarian you just have to be a callous, incurious rear end in a top hat.

Like even the highwater mark of "conservative intellectualism" was a guy who got routinely worked any time he wasn't going up against toe tags.

Just skip to any point in this

There was a report yesterday saying that it is more shameful than a quid pro quo - Erdogan basically said "yeah we're going in because I don't think you've got the balls to stop us" and Trump chickened out. All his talk about refuges and endless wars is him convincing himself that it was his own decision.

Erdogan called the bluff that America would willingly get Americans killed to defend the Kurds. It was absolutely obvious that Trump would not do that.

Because I hadn't seen that white supremacist symbol before, I went digging a little. So if you're interested:

The symbol he's got tatted is called the wolfsangel: https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols/wolfsangel

That shirt is apparently https://twitter.com/BenediktMaier/status/1182489863658115072

from a website called "Operation Werewolf" which in its about statement says

quote:

Operation Werewolf is a lifestyle, one of constant self-overcoming and hardship. You operatives know that today’s effort is tomorrow’s reward, and that one must always strive to outdo themselves- each day must be lived as though it is Ragnarok, each hour the last one of our lives.
So make of your bodies a temple, of your will a weapon, of your mind a smokeless fire that reduces this world’s lies into ashes.
Iron and Blood!

Neat!
