I listen to a little NPR and the only liberal bias I can ascertain is that reality has a liberal bias. THey're the only station I hear really giving semi decent coverage to the genocide in Gaza and even that treads rather lightly. I don't see how people think they'll get more fair and balanced news from a corporate sponsored outlet that's owned by one of many 3 major media conglomerates versus a publicly funded national station but, then again, the people who hate NPR want to privatize social security, education, utilities, police and poo poo like that so...

Now I want to actually see a Rob Schneider routine https://www.avclub.com/rob-schneider-comedy-routine-too-raunchy-republicans-1851411475 Rob Schneider's comedy routine reportedly too "raunchy" for Republican event quote:His alignment with the Republican-leaning infotainment ecosystem extends to his last stand-up special, Rob Schneider: Woke Up In America airing on the Fox News streaming service Fox Nation. But it turns out his brand of comedy may be too extreme for even some of the niche conservative audience he’s been cultivating. Or maybe not. "Too racist for FOX News" has me curious though. Weird, I thought the whole thing behind anti woke comedy was being edgy and saying a bunch of offensive poo poo to piss off snowflakes?

Speaking of math, Hannity and a few others like to extrapolate the number of people killed in the Hamas Israel attack by saying it would be the % population equivalent of like 40,000 dead Americans. But it got me wondering what 33,000 dead people in Gaza would amount to if they did the same trick. Naturally, none of them have run the numbers that way. Let's just do this USA Math to make an already horrible attack seem even bigger!

Posted before but Hannity likes to keep posting the death total from Oct 7 as a proportion to the US population, so it's like 1139 is the equivalent of 33,000 dead Americans. He does this a lot. I ran some numbers of my own and, taking the 33,000 dead in Gaza and population numbers there of 590,481 that I was able to find, then that equals around 5%. Five percent of the US population would be, by my numbers: 16,650,000 Let's round that down to 16.5 million, the vast majority of which would be civilians. Did I do this math right? Because, applying Sean's equivalency metrics, that's beyond horrifying. I have to be loving this up somehow, right? Someone help me out here and figure out what the equivalent number of Americans would be to the casualties in GAZA. tia

Whenever someone I talk to advocates for beating your kid(s), I usually just reply "I don't hit children". I mean, hell, I don't hit anybody but I especially do not hit kids.

There's also the thing where so many of them are all Helen Lovejoy Please Think of the Children all the time, they think that every gay or trans person is a child molester, there's a pedo every 15 feet and, man we really need to protect our kids. I'd better hit them.

Cross posting this from another thread I saw a bumper sticker today that read "I never knew a veteran who fought for socialism" I almost drove off the road. Also resisted the temptation to do a window roll down at the next red light and have a short chat. Of ALL the very few things in this country that a person could even remotely consider socialist, the loving military of all things has to be at the very top of the list. No? Yes, I know that these morons don't know what socialism is but god drat. Not to mention the countries who made up the Allies during WW2.

I hadn't heard Okeefe mentioned in a long time but some WGOP radio host had Matt Gaetz on and they were discussing some new "bombshell" story or another. I forget what it was and the only info I can find is from hard right sites that I'm not gonna link. It "takes aim at the CIA" Also, update: Matt Gaetz remains I giant piece of poo poo

I was thinking about this recently; wondering why the level of political discourse is so heated and why it's so hard to reach common ground and focus on the things we collectively care about and I realized: SO MANY places are "not the time and place for politics". Don't talk about politics at work. Don't bring up politics at family gatherings. Don't talk about politics at parties. No one wants to talk about politics at ________________. "I don't like politics on my social media page" WHEN are we supposed to talk about this? We work like 75% of our waking hours.

The Islamic Shock posted:Physical appearance-wise I look like an excellent conservative and since I'm actually a Christian as well that's led to me hearing some interesting (racist) things I've run into this as well. I don't wear polo shirts and poo poo but I'm white, have short hair, no tats or piercings and it's weird how often someone assumes "Bigger boat is safe to say this around as knows what I'm talking about". Reminds me of a GM I used to have but couldn't relate to that had a bunch of dead deer heads in his office. So he was exactly how you'd imagine. I brought up an Alabama NFL running back that had a good game (he went to Alabama) in an attempt to bond and he had no idea who Sean Alexander was, saying "I don't keep track of every N*****R who comes through the school" very matter of factly. I was...stunned. He later fired me for being "unable to work with" and, a little later than that, was prosecuted by the company for embezzlement. SO I am happy to be fired by that rear end in a top hat. I know for a fact that he was embarrassed by me momentarily crying on 9/12/01 in front of the workers during a What the gently caress Just Happened Gathering and I can say with full confidence that he was a Republican who watched FOX News, loves guns and hates N-

SOme talk radio dude was going off on overpaid McDonalds workers this afternoon and shared this anecdote. He went to McD's and ordered four double cheeseburgers, NO BUN and asked that they be put in a salad tray. For some reason. He was psyched to be first in line but upset that he was asked to pull into the waiting area spot and then became increasingly pissed as several other people got their food. Now, assuming this even happened, I think I may have spotted his problem. First of all, fast food service has always sucked but, beyond that, he ordered this weird custom cheeseburger salad tray thing. These restaurants are set up to work like assembly lines in an automated fashion. Any time you change up their system with anything beyond "no cheese" or "no onions", they're not built for it and I doubt the automated order entry thingy that they rely on even had an option for something that bizarre. Probably took the 17 year old kid 10 minutes to figure out how to even enter it and then attempt to go explain it to the kitchen. "they want WHAT now?" I also wonder if he considered that maybe other customers perhaps ordered their poo poo ahead of time on a loving app and their food was waiting for them. Orders that were normal poo poo on their menu and not a bizarre loving salad tray full of meat and cheese.

Hannity was a guest on Kilmeade's morning show today and said: "Nobody can even say what the charges against Trump even ARE". They're right here, Sean. All four cases: (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-indictments-details-guide-charges-trial-dates-people-case/) NYC: Charges: 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree So "Fraud". He also said the statute of limitations had run out. Also false. Sorry for the NY Post link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Y...20organization. quote:On June 27, 2023, the state's appellate division ruled that the case could continue, but that statutes of limitations limited allegedly illegal transactions from being charged if they concluded before July 13, 2014, respecting an August 2021 tolling agreement between the OAG and the organization. https://nypost.com/2023/10/03/trumps-statute-of-limitations-claim-at-civil-trial-explained/ quote:An appeals court in June ruled that the statute of limitations in the case is set at 2014. ... But the strangest thing (well not that strange) is that Hannity essentially did what amounted to a stump speech. I listen to Sean's show for 5 or 15 minutes at a clip here and there (or until I want to put a gun in my mouth) and I often accuse him of being a bit of a robot with prepared rhetoric and a talking points machine. But it really stood out this time. I had heard this exact same rant, almost word for word, on his show and it reminded me a lot of the Bernie Sanders campaign actually - I mean, beyond the content of course - but just in the way it really WAS written and rehearsed ahead of time. I'm sure you can imagine but it was basically a chat GPT where you put in "Hunter Biden, rampant crime, illegal immigrants, weaponized DoJ, inflation", etc. etc. Oddly, no mention of George Soros. He said the NYC judge should recuse for being a "Biden Donor". I wasn't aware that was a requirement for a judge. Also, what does this trial have to do with Joe Biden?
