My rack mate in OCS was 100% a loving anti-vaxxer and his uncle was a massive Qanon believer, talking about how vaccines were made with undead baby fetuses.

I went from being in a bay with 60 candidates and four sergeant instructors to eating at some lovely chain resturant in Dumfries hearing about how Hillary has a lesbian love afair and murder fetish of young children, along with how vaccines are actually causing autism and controlling the population to vote democrat.

he of course was a hardcore evangelical and thought that god needed more of a place in the marines, and that I was doing a disservice to the corps by not being religious.

People like that loving scare me. Brainwashed believers who want to spread their crazy to everyone else or kill them instead.

With the "Payroll Tax Holiday" the administration is talking up, how will we pay for social security? Isn't the program basically bankrupt? Congress isn't capable of passing funding for what is happening now.

What's the over/under on elderly/disabled people missing a social security payement?

Also from my understanding it's not a tax holiday for the individual, but their employer. So like someone in the discord said, it's employees giving their employers an interest free loan (since it has to be paid back when the holiday is over).

That's a lot of internet poisoning.

Didn't QAnon get started as some bullshit 4chan scam?

So I will readily acknowledge that a couple of young black kids have probably never heard any Phil Collins or Genesis before. However, at the risk of being an curmudgeon, I can’t stand people pretending to “react” to things for YouTube views, which is what most of the videos in the category are.

I got a huge kick out of watching those React videos of a group of kids playing The Last of Us 1 for the first time and seeing the bit where Joel's daughter dies in the first ten minutes.

I don't give a gently caress. I went to deid in 2012 and passed along micaps to SW Asia for 6 god damned years. I walked in hallways that had his smug grin right next to Obama's. It was 4 years after his promise to pull everyone out and he plays a gotcha where it's just Iraq and just in time for Christmas. So my fuckin seats get bumped for that lovely PR move and WE ARE STILL THERE. Nah dude, this poo poo is primal. No joke I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR JOE BIDEN.

What the gently caress are you saying, you were in Al Udeid for six years because of Joe Biden?

My hot take is that while I worked mad hours there, Deid was probably the best location in CENTCOM I've been to save maybe ADAB, and also there has been a massive buildup of forces in CC lately in every place that is not Iraq/Afghanistan. Maybe an isolationist-mode support of the current president pays off and people never go back to AUAB, but boy I've got doubts!

The deid was a godamn vacation spot.

What also is or isn't being reported, depending on where you get your news from:

Guy who was domed, was throwing molotov's, which is why his red t-shirt is on his head and covering his face.

Guy who took one to the chest hit the kid in the head with a skateboard

Guy hit in the arm is seen holding a pistol.

Not trying to start stuff with you guys, just what I'm getting from co-workers.

Molotov video is fake, that kid did not get hit in the head with a skateboard he has no loving injuries, and just lol

Your coworkers are idiots but that's the loving media narrative from fox so everyone who watches it will think he's a hero

It was a thread on SA from this morning. I'll see if I can find it.

Edit: Lol, I found it but the tweet has been deleted and retweeted with the edited video.

So wait is the only version that's out in the world now the right wing aftereffects edited cut?

Also feds are already doing the "unmarked van squad arrests" in Kenosha.

For me, this event was the death knell of the America I grew up in, that I thought it was. Some of the following might come off callous, and I don't mean it to- I'm just old and tired.

Beyond the 'normal' Officer shooting/protests/riots
A kid dropped by his Mom to join a militia with an AR15 at a place she had a reasonable belief he would be in danger. If not, why give him a god drat rifle? Then this idiot loving kid became a scared idiot kid. Then it just went full blown 2020 America. It's just so loving sad. I also can't help but feel this might be the tipping point. Like, it's ok now. This is going to embolden assholes, and escalate the rioters. Just gently caress.

His mom was apparently there.

Edit: further searching showed the tweet posted was incorrect and so I removed it.

I'm afraid things are gonna boil over. It's only a matter of time before these psychos open fire into a crowd.

This kind of poo poo legit terrifies me. And the stuff with the cops arresting people for bringing supplies to protesters is serious "mask-off" type poo poo. At this point I think the divide in this country is too deep and too vast to be fixed.

He has literally labeled protesters terrorists, so I think "calling on his people to not be a militia" is like asking the sun not to be quite so hot in summer.
