Revelation 2-13 posted:Im confused about the Greenwald thing, are we now AGAINST punching fascist enablers in the face? Or is it just when they’re journalists? Because GG probably has done more harm than Andy Ngo could hope to in his wildest dreams. I don’t really know, Glenn is an all around awful person who lives in Brazil and is friends with Tucker and comes on TV to make things worse in America. If he wasn’t gay maybe I wouldn’t catch so many probations when I express my total dislike for the man. I don’t really get it because I can say gently caress a lot of people but every time I say gently caress Glenn Greenwald I have to wait 6hrs to post again

ManBoyChef posted:Im terrible at posting because I don't really know how to do it yet but I came across this: Politicians in Texas are trying to add moses to the influences of the founders of this country to the lesson plans in schools. It is straight up propaganda. This is from more than a year ago btw Moses being the “law giver” or whatever that phrase is and the influence of the Ten Commandments in the development of America isn’t a new thing, it’s the same rationale that the Supreme Court relies upon to let Texas keep the Ten Commandments on the grounds of the capital And yet they keep rejecting my proposal for a statute of William the Conqueror killing King Harold as a tribute to the establishment of the common law system

So a while ago on College Gameday, I saw, very quickly as the camera zoomed past a bunch of people, someone with an Alabama foam hand (you know, usually shaped like someone doing the "We're #1" index finger up) except this one was shaped like the OK symbol. I hate everything about this timeline and I want to get off.

mistaya posted:Preface by saying I know jack poo poo about housing markets. But with all the talk of just needing to build more, I can't help but think of all the housing that was put up right before the Recession in the Phoenix suburbs where I was living at the time and how they sat there empty until the copper thieves cleaned all the pipes out of them. Was this a uniquely Phoenix (or sprawl-city in general perhaps) problem? Or why did building more homes in that case utterly flop? There are non-market reasons to support new construction of specifically multi-family housing units as well. From a climate change perspective, rapid and extensive densification is needed. This may have a side-benefit of improving the market if enough housing is built near where people want to live, but IMO we should all think of that as a secondary reason to support new construction of apartment/condo buildings. Of course how to make all the new construction fair, equitable, and non-disruptive to communities (as much as is possible) is a big policy problem and I don’t know the solution. I just know that it’s necessary.

Being hit by a fascist for damaging the country's fascist leader and being punched by an antifascist for being a nazi are, in fact, two different things.

Lord Stimperor posted:You know it would be used to trade some uncountable poor kids lives to prolong that of a billionaire. A little late, but in the spirit of d&d.. Sure, I totally understand that a theoretical society that could utilize blood sacrifice for untold power would result in the death of countless innoccents. My sacrifice would ultimately be meaningless considering the millions of children getting beheaded, dismembered, or bled dry rather than dieing of preventable disease, war, or while in custody. I suppose the me from that timeline would wish they could sacrifice themself in such a way that no further blood sacrifices would be possible? Consider instead that I was wishing to give my soul to a Djinn and rules-lawyering like gently caress so kids get helped while only Nazis faced the inevitable backlash.  I'm sorry. I know your forgiveness is your own to give or not. I don't have to agree with everything you say, but I've been an unthinking rear end about you and your history in the past. I apologise and wish I could take it back. Also, I know you mean it but, unlike me, you're more affective alive than dead. Keep fighting despite the hurt. You're making a difference.

Saagonsa posted:Being hit by a fascist for damaging the country's fascist leader and being punched by an antifacist for being a nazi are, in fact, two different things. It's straight up being uninformed. Greenwald was reporting on United States fascism in the Bush days before most anyone else in the media would touch it while most everyone in the country was rooting for it. And he did it during the Obama days too which pissed off a lot of democrats. He has been blackballed by CNN and MSNBC by doing those things. So he goes on Carlson's show. I don't agree with that. And I agree he has some blind spots, but come on. He's doing journalism right now reporting on fascism in Brazil. He is at literal physical risk. The fact he can only appear on Tucker Carlson's show than any other news show in America says a lot more about American media than it does about him.

Or why did building more homes in that case utterly flop? there's your problem the recession was specifically triggered by malfeasance and a bubble in housing. phoenix is a sprawly city, and your specific perspective was one which saw extra houses which were completed at the wrong time. i bet those houses are mostly inhabited today, but 2009-2011 was a different story. what you're talking about are houses which people definitely could have lived in, but which nobody wanted to/could afford to buy at the time. the housing market is wildly inefficient at actually providing housing in adequate supply to people because of market factors like this, and that developers would rather gamble on $500k+ large single family homes than a building full of $200k- condos due to profit incentive https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2014/11/the-unfinished-suburbs-of-America/382707/
