Where's all the whining about GIPs continued existence happening?

I think there's like 2 or 3 people who have a grudge against GIP in particular, maybe a couple more who just don't like the idea of a dedicated military subforum, which I think is fairly reasonable. Probably a few more people are under the impression that we're all super chuds in here, but I think for the most part people are willing to just let us be.

It probably helps that we have the best dog thread.

People keep saying this but what exactly would a “prepared society” look like or do differently?

A better education system that encourages people to think critically rather than swallow whatever bullshit is put in front of them.

like seriously though A) Sanders' statement said basically the same thing and B) the fact that we may be at war with iran by the time we wake up in the morning is slightly more important than extremely petty sniping

We're on a dying comedy forum, literally nothing we post here is important.

Yeah that's fair and I'll cop to the post being pretty snide. I'm just sick of the equivocation, you can say this was a stupid thing to do without covering your rear end with "well he was a bad guy and needed to be extrajudicially murdered BUT..."

Considering the upcoming election, I think you kind of do have to say "he was a piece of poo poo, but". Otherwise the "*candidate* says terrorist more important than our troops" attack ads right themselves. It's campaign season.

99% of Americans had no idea who this guy was until today, and I doubt that a majority of them give a poo poo that he's dead now. I think it's safe to just say no more war.

Except MSNBC's official twitter just called him the #1 bad guy. It's pretty easy to see how the big networks are going to spin this. In a couple days every water cooler clown in the country will have an opinion on this guy. So yeah, no one knew who he was this morning, but everyone will know by next week. Why make it even easier for the other side to spin up the outrage machine against you?

lol msnbc

The media got rock loving hard over the Iraq invasion, even the """liberal""" networks, because it meant more money for them. They're already working themselves up to half mast over this, they don't give a poo poo as long as it gets clicks and views.

A nazi was modding D&D and was banning some CSPAM posters. Several posters got discord logs/screen shots of the nazi saying nazi things on the nazi discord. These people were permabanned for "doxxing" and "mod sass". The nazi mod eventually put up this "defense" which was basically that they were totally an undercover spy guys, all the nazi stuff was just ironic to fit in. Because you know, you can't just idle and lurk on a discord for forever. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3909802

Wait I’m confused. If you hate the federal government and are a sovereign citizen, then why are you enforcing a nation who you don’t recognize the legitimacy of border?

I mean I know the answer is racism, but that’s just an extra step of stupid.

It's because they're actually 100% on board with a strong, authoritarian government ruling over them, just as long as those people don't have a say in it.

That book from the NASA doctor said sex is not possible in microgravity which is going to lead to a lot of disappointment.

It definitely should be possible, but you'd pretty much have to make a bed specifically for loving. One of the participants would have to be completely strapped down.

Also you'd have to do it in a bubble to prevent any of the various fluids from getting into sensitive electronics.

I really don’t want anything to happen to Trump in office. They do not need a goddamn martyr like that. The exact argument on FB will be: “Why do we have MLK day but not Donald J Trump day?”. Just let him subsume into the background noise of US politics and let the prosecution begin once his term and protections of office are up.

Yeah, Trump dying in office would be a loving disaster. Imagine all the decorum bullshit about McCain's death but cranked up to 11.

CNN is straight up ratfucking Bernie.
