Is it even worth it to point out GOP hypocrisy anymore? It doesn't work. I mean, maybe some of them secretly cry themselves to sleep over what they have become but they come in the next morning ready to debase themselves same as the day before. And most of them probably don't have Trump's excuse of having a legit personality disorder.

As Chapo pointed out, they have repeatedly shown they don't care about Republican hypocrisy so it's pointless and a waste of time to treat it as some sort of "gotcha" that'll get them on your side.

I am almost convinced that Red Panels is a long con troll. It has to be. The mask slips to much. Still, pretending to be a nazi or actually being one are both heinous things so gently caress 'em to hell and back.

Ironic racism is still racism.

I think Democrat politicians try not to patronize people by explaining the bloody obvious, that refugees are vetted. Problem is, most people are so ignorant that they do need this explained.

No one ever went broke (or lost reelection) underestimating the intelligence of the public.

Gonna here: if PizzaGate is real and Podesta is convicted for it - or if it's not real and he's convicted for it anyway - literally ban me from this website. I'm fine with it being permanent. I encourage everyone else to do this same because Garrison is a dipshit who says inflammatory stuff that there's no loving way he actually believes in and I want to demonstrate that we're both smarter and better than him.

Boy, you sure you want to risk your account like that?

Not only is it unusual but GOP politicians are literally hiding from these events in order to not get yelled at and in some cases using Giffords as an example of dangerous citizens.

Regarding multi-imaged comics or comics otherwise using obfuscation to prevent sharing, you should only ever share through approved means ~~and totally, totally not search for one of many browser plugins that will take a full sreenshot of the site you are on, from top to bottom of the scrollbar because that's eeeeeeevil~~

State of fear by Michael Crichton, of Jurassic Park fame. The plot is global warming is made up by murderous (possibly suicidal) eco-terrorists, that drive Prius's and use super exotic blowfish to kill instead of guns, so that people will give them money to fight global warming. Also: Hollywood types are hypocrites for using airplanes, petrified forests prove logging is good, cannibal tribes, and made up sonic digging equipment that can make earthquakes that cause tidal waves.

I cannot overstate the pettiness and stupidity of it all.

All of Crichton's books are reactionary pieces about man's hubris.

Yes, just like a white person being called a racist is much worse than being a racist.

Last I checked Signal and Whatsapp weren't mentioned at all in the Vault 7 docs

I think they were mentioned in the sense that they can get around their encryption by just hacking the device instead. They haven't actually been compromised despite what Todd Rall & the press say.

Where are these loving weird public bathrooms where toilets aren't in lockable stalls? Do americans just have a line of open toilets up against the far wall or something?

To save on materials, a lot of stall door/walls only go down to shin height. Due to poor build quality, there's usually an inch gap between the panels as well.

quote:

Kellyanne Conway, President Trump's senior adviser, said her comments on using a microwave oven as a surveillance device had been taken out of context.

She didn't give the context they were meant in, instead she said she wasn't Inspector Gadget. No, really, she told CNN she wasn't Inspector Gadget and can't explain how, in her words, "microwaves ... turn into cameras".

She meant microwave ovens? For some reason I thought she was talking about literal energy waves, which was amazing in a weird sci-fi sort of way.

Yes, she very clearly heard about the Vault 7 leaks and got very confused as to what was meant by turning IoT devices into covert microphones.
