Microplastics posted:This entire argument is instantly demolished but the cruelty inflicted on the Jews during the holocaust. If it was just "the ends justify the means" then they'd have just straight up killed them, not torment them to death, as had been done especially in the earlier years of the holocaust. yeah i've read accounts from survivors of just one camp of how the nazis would have prisoners mauled to death by dogs and gored/trampled by bulls just for entertainment of an evening i really want to believe that quote is an April fools joke in very, very poor taste

Just glad to see Co-Op's salt and vinegar flavour getting some respect. They're a potent crisp.

If I hear one more time about how anything my melted army-man of an old man doesn't like about the Palestine protests around London, an entire country away from us, is "Woke" I swear to Christ above.

smellmycheese posted:Crisp chat. These have just come out and they are absolutely incredible. Worse than crack. I’m doing a pack a day. Wotsits crunchy are okay, kinda makes me a little uncomfortable to eat something so dense with that flavouring tho. Big wotsits are where its at imo. My crisp perversion is that day old slightly stale big wotsits are better than the fresh ones.

One of my colleagues said she was going to the protest "against genocide" this weekend, and in my near-catatonic state, I almost asked her "which genocide" until I realised it wasn't funny. I pointed that out to her, and she assumed I was referring to the one in Congo (?DR Congo?) and I told her I'd forgotten about that, and was thinking of the Myanmar regime's recent bloodlust. And then I remembered that quasi-separatist thing going on in India and realised that it is, in fact, possible for there to be so many atrocities happening around the world that you can become almost blasé about genocide. Which is cool, I guess.

At the end of my shift i came back and bought them. Best Nik Naks i've ever had hands down. Never saw them for sale anywhere ever again. The tesco shelves formed a spacetime anomaly that crossed you over into the jamaican cheese Nik Nak branch of the universe

Genocide is the "rest state" for humanity, interspersed with global wars in case people get bored.

So that Scottish MP is paying his big phone bill himself in the end. Lol that it alone is apparently more than every MSP's phone bill put together for the whole year. But then I guess voice communication isn't hugely useful for people that sound like Scottish people. I'm a bit annoyed though that the point isn't why the gently caress are roaming charges still allowed to bankrupt a normal person for a week's holiday worth of data? Luckily this guy earns over a hundred grand a year, but soaking up an 11k phone bill would destroy most people. Criminal.

grobbo posted:Even the name is a lie. I had a schoolmate who had a very fragile constitution so she regularly had unsalted crisps at school. There's a reason the "plain" crisp as you think of it is called "ready salted" - they provide plain crisps and a salt packet to cater to those with conditions.

It’s easy to happen especially if you’re not tech savvy. There are £6/mb in Morocco, for example. 1.8gb isn’t a tonne of data to use.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:this is either factually wrong or morally wrong. Where's the cereal added? And why? Maybe they are used to eating something like quote:Pringles have about 42% potato content, the remainder being wheat starch and flours (corn and rice) combined with vegetable oils, an emulsifier, salt, and seasoning. Other ingredients can include sweeteners such as maltodextrin and dextrose, monosodium glutamate (MSG), disodium inosinate, disodium guanylate, sodium caseinate, modified food starch, monoglyceride and diglyceride, autolyzed yeast extract, natural and artificial flavorings, malted barley flour, wheat bran, dried black beans, sour cream, cheddar cheese, etc.; Pringles varieties vary in their ingredients. or even calling something like cheetos as crisps?

Pistol_Pete posted:I hadn't even heard of this. BBC has an article principally focusing on Shan (ignoring Chinland has been a theme since before the start) implying that China among others are getting bored with Burma's poo poo and are no longer going to default to "the sovereign state is the legitimate party." Also Shan separatists captured a regional capital. Best possible result for this shitshow is the junta collapsing in disarray, the previous constitution being annulled, and a proper federal union established. I don't think anyone really wants full sovereign status, just an end to direct rule bullshit. It's all been very distant in coverage compared to Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Palestine, or even events in Chad/ECOWAS though.

Seeing that tier list reminded me of the 'old' style Cheese and Onion Walkers Max. Not the new, thin style. Hopefully you all know what I mean. Now that was a fabulous crisp.

walkers, for example, are produced in a factory which also handles cereals. the tiniest bit can gently caress up your guts if you're sensitive - the legal requirements for something to be called "gluten-free" on the packaging is 20 parts per million.

Pistol_Pete posted:Seeing all the sternly judgemental articles from Very Serious People about the appalling hate marches and the dreadful terrorist supporters who attend them has left me feeling even more detached from reality than usual. From a little bit back, but I get this a lot. It’s good to remember that you’re not the one detached from reality, they are. Most people don’t think they’re hate marches. Hardly any actual people think that. It’s just columnists and the political/media establishment in their own weird bubble and they’re the ones who are detached.

I really don't know where this idea that the nazis didn't want to do their murdering comes from. That they did it everywhere they went would suggest that they did think it was a good idea, actually.

I suppose it's a human psychic defence to deal with the enormity of the horror, but it's a terrible one as it lets nazis off the hook. Like sure they wrote extensively about it in advance and also during and constructed an industrial scale murder machine and then tried to hide it, which are all major legal standards for establishing mens rea, but they didn't mean to, or if they did they felt bad. It's only one step removed from "the gas chambers were for delousing uniforms" outright denialism really.

It does seem to be true that the Nazis proposed that plan to put all the Jews on Madagascar which could, if you really really wanted it to, look like they wanted to preserve life and only went to extermination as a last resort. But on the other hand they clearly weren't that committed to it, were they, on account of all the murders they did.

Seems to be a bit just bad Godwin "your worse than nazis" stuff, a bit too much time spent dreaming of and justifying their favorite nationalist ethno-state. Not a lot of healthy takes to be mined in that shaft Everyone of these assholes must get at least a few "but were the nazis actually... GOOD!!?" epiphanies, it's just not always the right media climate to post/publish them

This is in no way handing it to the Nazis, but it is true that Himmler was concerned about mass murders via shooting people into open graves a la the opening months of Barbarossa, because he was concerned about how the SS dudes used to get drunk during and or after the events, and Himmler figured it was "psychologically stressful" or some poo poo. Of course the preferred solution was moving towards said industrial scale mass murdering methods, because Himmler and the SS really, really wanted to murder millions of innocent people, Himmler just didn't like "his boys" getting drunk and rowdy.

Funny story, but the Madagascar Plan was basically built on the work of the Poles & French, as the Poles went to France in the '30s to see if there was anything they could do about their Jews. Also the Nazi plan really really really wasn't about preserving life, they were entirely expecting a whole load of Jews to die either on the boat ride to the island (which I'm assuming would be on conditions comparable to slaves on slave ships) or just mysteriously die there on an island turned into a police state run by the SS. OK, that's not funny, it's hideous, but that's history for you. Douglas Murray is a loving ghoul & yet it is the left that hates Jews.
