Speaking of coal getting it's poo poo pushed in. https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2018/6/1/17416444/net-power-natural-gas-carbon-air-pollution-allam-cycle If that's to be believed it's a new type of natural gas power plant with zero atmospheric carbon release, higher energy efficiency, lower initial capital outlay and smaller physical foot print. It's pretty wild.

 If they were violent towards white people more often it might start being a problem in the minds of about a third of the country. Kinda like how the opiate crisis is a crisis now, but the drug war was a valiant struggle against the lesser people in society.

sharknado slashfic posted:The GOP is so good at messaging that if I didn't hate them so much I'd admire them. Just light years ahead of the Dems. I don't give them credit for that so much as blame. The GOP were early adopters of being completely soulless billionaire-donor/corporate whores vomiting any talking points they were told to so they got the benefit of those billionaires funding a massive state propaganda machine in the right wing media. Their ideas are poo poo, their policies are worse, their message is hateful and their talking points have devolved to "1500 kids ripped from families and going to foster homes or wherever isn't that bad and it's fake news anyway". They just have basically endless propaganda dollars to force the discourse onto their topics and into their framing by pure volume. Can't argue the results because we have a spiteful cheeto as president, I just don't give them credit for messaging when it's just more dollars not better messaging.

Jesus gently caress, MAGA chuds are really some kind of god drat special. Watching people on my Facebook feed show them video after video of Trump and Sessions saying outright, "We are going to take these children away. This is what we are going to do. Us. We're doing it. The children taking. That's us. We are tough on borders, so we're doing this" and it's just a solid wall of "Nope, it's the Democrats. A bad thing is happening, it's their fault". We're going to have to either deprogram a huge portion of our population from cult mentality or just overpower them and wait for them to die.

Hey all, do you want another reminder that anything touched by the morally bankrupt shitheads in this administration is warped and perverted to cause pain and suffering? Of course you do! https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/6/18/17449150/family-separation-policy-immigration-dhs-orr-health-records-undocumented-kids See, the simple banal evil of just tearing away, locking up then abandoning these kids doesn't have enough of that sweet, sweet bigotry. So instead the reports from social workers they get evaluated by that are supposed to help them have been turned into another weapon. It's been decided that, welp, you filthy illegals we won't let in legally don't get protections of the law so stuff like HIPAA doesn't apply. Anything that can be used in your case against you to make deportation more likely is fair game, so it's showing up in more and more cases against the kids. Man it would sure be a shame if you've been recently traumatized by some kind of event like leaving everything you know, possibly dying yourself while probably seeing others die, got separated from your parents and are being interviewed by probably the first person not animated by hatred of your society and said something that could be used against you. Yes sir, real shame. What's that? You say you worked for the cartels because your choice was very literally do or see another family member die? Man you must be one of those MS13 murderers we hear so much about. Welp, back you go. I'm sure you'll make it back without being decapitated and dumped in a ditch.

That executive order is some serious 2018-in-a-nutshell poo poo.

When the inevitable end result of exactly what is being said is inevitable right this very moment happens, he'll say it happening is someone else's fault and claim to be the one being unfairly attacked.

loving if anyone working age today expects to have a retirement outside of winning the lottery or being born rich. Boomers mortgaged the future of the country to have a wild economic party and now the bill is coming due. What resources are people going to retire with, and what will they do it in? Home ownership is a cluster gently caress happening right now that's going to get really wild (again), student debt is a boat anchor around people's necks that's not going to get any better and the ACA's "bending the cost curve" of health care is beyond a joke. Retirement.

So Two Scoops rhetoric is pretty obviously leaning towards "and we need to start arresting my opponents for national security reasons." Bets on whether he's coherent enough to make it a "joke" the first few times or if he's sundowning and just starts yelling it to whip his MAGA chud base into a frenzy?

Milo and POTUS posted:This is still to me the most utterly baffling thing about it all. I just do not remotely understand it. It breaks my god drat brain. At any loving point in the past half century+ if a presidential candidate had plead for foreign interference in general and russian interference in particular during a debate that would have been it. Then again, he also insulted a POW and escaped scot-free, even among his own "troop loving" base. Nothing makes a god drat lick of sense. Reagan didn't call the brown people rapists infesting our country that need a final solution while hemming and hawing when asked about Nazis. He used the "politically correct" (Yes, I know) words that lead up to the uncut heroin of today's racism that they really wanted all along. The chuds never gave a flying gently caress about any of the other poo poo like his economic skull loving or stance on Russia beyond some incoherent stuff to yell about that "triggers the libs" by being so blatantly wrong and aggressively stupid. It was always the racism. Hope that makes things clearer for you.
