Yes, Mossad was a big fan of the remotely detonated cell phone bomb back in the day.

You don't really need a large explosion due to the immediate vicinity of the target's head so there's a minimized risk of collateral damage, in theory.

Hm, that's weird because in the US it's actually normal for people to walk around with assault rifles in public.

would be nice to see some diversity in the mods though, the whites only rule for mods is a bit dated if you ask me

Look in the lower right corner of any reply. See the little button marked "Report"? Use it. It calls the attention of the mods and admins to jokers like this. Otherwise, we often miss stuff. I don't read every thread. You help out by pointing out the idiots.

Fun fact: Over 95% of the people I ban/probate were reported to me. I don't generally prowl the forum looking for people to ban. I read it for the same reason you do. Because I like it.

And that's why poo poo isn't changing. The idea that non-violence is a good thing is a myth put out by the ruling class to help keep people in line, and progressives have convinced themselves that violence is a bad thing that only the bad people like those evil conseratives use. The most often cited examples are Martin Luther King and Ghandi,

Every major social shift is helped along by the tool of violence. The only reason King and Ghandi were able to get their non-violent programs to work was because of the threat of violence from other groups. Society in America was given the choice of doing things King's way, or doing them the Malcom X / black panther way.

The idea is "We want to do this peacefully, and will use violence only as a last resort". Not "We will always be peacefull, no matter what, and hey please listen to us out of the goodness of your heart since we have no way of forcing the issue because violence is icky and bad".

lovely jobs that paid respectable wages used to exist a lot more. They are called manufacturing and industry jobs, and they still exist, in declining numbers. I've worked for tyson and el monterey shovelling their garbage into boxes for several bucks over minimum wage, el monterey's parent company is actually pretty good too, but we gave the majority of these away because 'service jobs are representative of a modern economy' because clearly those industry workers are psychologically, culturally fit for a corporate work space. The buying power of minimum wage is way down, factually, this is true, and if minimum wage had the same buying power it did in the 70s we'd probably have starting wages somewhere in the $20s but i dont remember the actual number.

So here's the deal, I shovelled poo poo in retail for a long time, and even did a call center job that still gives me nightmares, and I've been much happier in factory work, even though it's less dignified or whatever, because I do not get along with corporate settings or people at all and its dehumanizing nature. I was literally a cog in a machine, my job easily replacable by robots, the person giving me orientation even candidly admitting he didn't know why the company hadn't automated like half its work force like his previous employers did, because it's actually more profitable that way.

Maybe they saw some kind of merit in employing people in the area their factory operated? Who knows, but I know my job and the job of 90% of my co workers are something a machine can and does do in other companies, it was a weird patronizing courtesy i was being paid a livable wage with nice benefits to do a redundant task, while people shovel poo poo for minimum wage in call centers and retail and service jobs, ostensibly doing work that's not so easily replaced, and therefore more essential than what I did there.

Anyway the point is the value of labor is arbitrary and lovely jobs exist so that people capable of doing complex tasks don't have to waste their time with the menial labor their projects generate, but this is a two way street and there's no reason to devalue the rear end in a top hat taking your money behind the counter just because you're A Very Important Hiring Manager For A Very Serious Company. Maybe you deserve more pay, I don't know, but you don't have the right to dictate what another person's job is actually worth. And yeah, any job is worth more than 7.25 an hour.

Oh I see what you're saying. It happens. There's also a weird cultural thing in poor black communities though where leaving the ghetto is somehow seen as selling out.

It's just not by itself enough to do anything about the problem in general. But yeah as an individual there's usually always *something* you could do. A lot of people end up joining the army.

A lot of people get fooled into thinking dealing drugs is their way out and then they get put in prison.

Here's a hint for the super cheap seats: if you go through the visa process and can afford to pay it odds are you weren't poor in Mexico either and you aren't arriving in the USA with absolutely nothing. Double triple hint: THEY AREN'T GIVING VISAS TO UNSKILLED UNEDUCATED WORKERS DIPSHIT thus your comparison of legal latino immigrants to broke as gently caress kids growing up in compton is meaningless

Just goes back to what I said earlier: my family were immigrants but you're loving retarded if you think our success has nothing at all to do with blind luck or that everyone could do the same.

i live in a low income town in the cheapest part of the state without literally living in the west texas wasteland where there are literally no jobs unless you want to rustle cattle like an old timey villain and risk being hung in the town square by the county marshal. The ghettos of dallas are actually more expensive, but no 40 hour minimum wage does not meet my cost of living, and yeah there's no republican gay rear end stereotype to fall on here, rent a center is poison, i don't have tv, i have the cheapest internet that's available, i have a loving landline and pay as you go burner phones i've collected over the years to compensate for the times when i frequently still can't afford to pay internet/phone that month. Hope this helps you loving delusional retards.
