we regret to inform you that after years spent screaming GENOCIDE CAMPAIGN IN CHILD DEATH CAMPS we have re-tallied the numbers and it is in fact ENFORCED MUSICAL CHAIRS FOR CHILDREN IN OVERFLOW FACILITIES.

Why would you ban people for justifying fun games for children being taken care of in nice facilities we are only now worried about the specifics of?

Trotskyism is when you sequence break Marxism by running into a wall until your character's speed builds up incredibly high and you glitch through a closed door, skipping the entire late-stage capitalism level and going straight to full communism.

Unfortunately this little trick also fucks up your save file.

Ok SUCC zone: I have a question.

It's been a week since the second impeachment trial crashed and burned.

During the senate part of the impeachment, the democrats decided to hold a vote to call witnesses. They won that vote. The plan to call witnesses, the decision to call the vote, and winning the vote were all widely publicized. But the democrats didn't call witnesses after winning the vote to call witnesses. They suddenly reversed course and ended the trial.

My question is: What is the Democrats official reasoning for why they decided to hold the vote to call witnesses, win it, and then not call witnesses?

I listened to the news, podcasts, interviews with the house impeachment manager that the democrats sent out to news orgs to spin the impeachment and this question was never actually answered. Their spokespeople and analysts who repeat their talking points talk about a lot of other topics. But never actually address the vote, win, reversal. The actions don't make any sense.

And I know the real reason they did it won't match up with their official reason. But I have never even heard an official reason for it. And it's kind of amazing to me that they didn't even bother to come up with an official reason for why they did it. So is there one?

what I heard was that the GOP planned witnesses that would've proved embarrassing to dems, although I have no idea who those witnesses would've been.

That sounds like a possibility. But that means that the GOP damaging witnesses would have had to be revealed only after the vote was won. Also, the idea that a witness could testify and damage the democrat's credibility more than what they did is kind of funny

it owns that the libs are trotting out the exact same excuses as used to defend the concentration camps of the boer war

quote:

The more radical Liberals however such as David Lloyd George and John Ellis were prepared to raise the matter in Parliament and to harass the government on the issue, which they duly did. St John Brodrick, the Conservative secretary of state for war, first defended the government's policy by arguing that the camps were purely "voluntary" and that the interned Boers were "contented and comfortable," but was somewhat undermined as he had no firm statistics to back up his argument, so when his "voluntary" argument proved untenable, he resorted to the "military necessity" argument and stated that everything possible was being done to ensure satisfactory conditions in the camps.
