They just act, and are surprised always by the ramifications.
I work with nothing but Liberals they make decisions to take servers off line because they think no one is using it. Because they were just told they need to set up paperwise.
Rather than checking if it would affect anyone taking a rarely used SQL server off line or if anyone is accessing those tables they just take it down. Then when you confront them that you need it, and ask why they didn't send out an email. They play the victim. God I miss when Conservative critical thinkers ruled the enterprise.

The same thing was said about Fox News viewers in the late naughts (2000-2009).

and they were right.

Find those weapons of mass destruction program yet in Iraq? "News" sources take turns lying their fucking asses off, but they always lie. Fox news lies today, constantly. If they were a real news organization, they'd still be, occasionally, bringing up the fact that Jeffrey Epstein was murdered. They would have reported the US overthrew Ukraine in 2014, and there's HARD PROOF the US did this.

We have no actual news sources, at least in corporate media. It's just a bunch of independents that tell you the truth, in their part time, because they believe the truth is important, and it is.

You keep saying that buy that's not really accurate these days (back in the Iraq war days I'd agree). You have Tucker today, I don't give a shit whether people like him or not, but objectively he comes pretty close to reporting the truth every single day. He doesn't get enough credit for that imo. The leftoid lamestream media doesn't have anything comparable. Sure the rest of Fox may be uniparty, but Tuvker certainly isn't, and it's a refreshing anomaly of truth injection.

Yes, I know. I'm quite (very pleasantly!) shocked that the "turn the Middle East to glass!!!" crowd is now the peaceniks and the rational ones calling for sanity. I never thought in a MILLION YEARS that this would happen, but I'm very happy it happened. I'm just reminding everybody that the "right" can go fucking insane too.

He's controlled opposition, perhaps a limited hangout, which is fine. He won't really expose what is going on. I don't dislike him, but he doesn't have the balls we need as a nation. The rabbit hole is very shallow. It's easy to see, for example, the US overthrew Ukraine. Does he ever bring that up? Of course not, he'd be fired if he did.

mell says

Ummmm. I don't really think in terms of left and right. It's correct versus bullshit. Glenn Greenwald is considered "left":

https://rumble.com/c/GGreenwald

Go through some of his stuff. He ALSO doesn't talk much about how Ukraine was overthrown though. Most Americans do not know that the US overthrew Ukraine and started this conflict. This guy will talk about it:

https://www.ancreport.com/

He's severely punished for doing so as well. He scrambles for money, because truth is treason in this empire of lies. Being right doesn't pay the bills easily, being honest is dangerous today. That's our world.

Here's another interesting guy:

https://www.ancreport.com12/
https://www.thelastamericanvagabond.com/

If you want to know what is going on, you CAN know what is going on, but does take some effort, and it's not on the fucking propaganda box. You have to look for it, and SPREAD it.

We're forced to talk about transgendered children, CRT in schools, and other trivial nonsense which are created problems that shouldn't exist. They are created to distract us, while the real problem is our thug, mafia, government. Our government is unbelievably corrupt. There's a war in Ukraine so that these assholes can launder money. They are taking money from taxpayers, and getting some small percentage back in bribes, and all it costs it me and you money, and 100's of thousands of lives. That's our government. There's no expectation that Ukraine will prevail although undoubtedly whatever the outcome the US will declare it a Ukrainian victory. They don't care about winning wars, they care about the money they make from them. They are complete, total, psychopaths.

If the "news" media would just tell the fucking truth, all this bloodshed would end, all these sociopathic assholes would be dragged from power, all this stupid misery and conflict would end. If they would just tell the fucking truth. It's left to marginalized people to do it, and they pay horrendous prices for daring to speak out. They are deplatformed, they lose access to their bank accounts, they can't use paypal, they are silenced relentlessly. Those are the only people worth listening to.

Tucker did bring up the Ukraine overthrow more than once, incl. Nuland's role. Yes, Greenwald and Taibbi come from the left but they have been kicked out long ago and get zero air time on the leftoid lamestream media, except for smears. I think it's more like Fox are hedging their bets than controlled opposition, and they're gaining viewers that way. Doesn't make it a great channel, but 1000 x better than the leftoid garbage

And this is why you don't pay any attention to "mainstream" media - it's complete garbage. I'll admit that Tucker Carlson is a breath of fresh air, for the "mainstream" media, but you're still inhaling garbage fumes.

I haven't owned a television since 1993, well to be precise, I've not owned one since 1988. It's just toxic. I've SEEN it, but only on the Internet.

For now it's the least deleterious garbage out there. For now. I'll agree with you, but "Faux News" - that is a correct assessment. They lied relentlessly about the Iraq War, and I will never forgive them.

Sean Hannity is Joseph Goebbels reincarnated. These people are not trying to inform you, they aren't giving you information, they are giving you propaganda. CURRENTLY, at the MOMENT, Carlson isn't fucking shit at this moment in time, but that will change. He was a Neocon asshole at one point, he'll do the same thing again. He's not a moral person, although he SEEMS to be right now, but he's not. He's just playing a part.

They draw you in by telling you the truth for a period of time, then they go off into propaganda land. That's what Rachel Maddow did, Keither Olberman did, the Young Turks did. They were all correct about the Iraq war, but they all prostituted themselves out as whores after. Nobody in "mainstream news" lasts long if they are truthful. I used to respect all those people, but I don't now. My values have remained unchanged, and they have no values, and they have no allegiance to the truth. They are human garbage. These are bad people.

The City of San Francisco is reportedly reconsidering its boycott on socially conservatives states, after the ban on travel and contracting failed to change those states’ policies and raised the city’s contracting costs 10-20%.

Yes, the blue states cost more because of the kickbacks they get on those contracts.

Norway counts the cost of its new wealth tax as billionaires flee to Switzerland

“A difficult choice has been made. I’ve moved from Asker, Norway, to Lugano in Switzerland,” Norway’s biggest taxpayer, and the largest shareholder of investment firm Aker ASA, Kjell Inge Røkke wrote to the rest of the board in an open letter last September.

Mr Røkke, an industrial tycoon with an estimated net worth of Nkr 19.6bn (£1.5bn), is among 50 billionaires and millionaires to have left Norway over the past year as they were hit with higher rates of wealth tax.

A federal grand jury has charged three St. Louis residents with illegally pushing pro-Russian propaganda and misinformation about Ukraine and sowing discord across Missouri, Georgia and Florida through the African People’s Socialist Party.

The indictment alleges that African People's Socialist Party Chairman Omali Yeshitela and members Penny Joanne Hess and Jesse Nevel acted as illegal agents of the Russian government without notifying the U.S. attorney general. They each face up to 10 years in prison for that charge. They also face up to five years in prison for conspiring to have U.S. citizens act as illegal agents.

The indictment alleges Russian national Aleksandr Viktorovich Ionov founded the Anti-Globalization Movement of Russia, a Moscow-based organization run by the Russian government, to promote pro-Russian propaganda and create influence campaigns among political groups across the country, including the African People’s Socialist Party. It also alleges Ionov tried to promote the Russian invasion of Ukraine with pro-Russian talking points. It says that Ionov would appear on video calls hosted by the party in which he likened support to Ukraine to supporting Nazis and that Yeshitela made statements supporting Russia.

Omali Yeshitela:

I believe this man was covered today by Glenn Greenwald. I have what people might call "partial facial blindness", so don't be accusing me of being a racist, because I've misidentified a man. Start at 42:00 minutes in:


original link

This man's crime, is that he's anti-establishment. He opposes both parties. I'm guilty of the same crime. I disagree with his solution, but I agree with him about the problem.

BTW: I had to look up possessives for that. I believe that's grammatically correct to say "man's" in which case it would be possessive of "men". "Mans" would be plural. Fucking french, germans, and saxons, romans, and who knows what else. We have a fucked up language. Fuck all you invaders, even though I'm very minority english and have to deal with this fucked up language.

If you think people you disagree with should be silenced, you're wrong. You can see the results of this sort of suppression now. The purpose of free speech isn't only to spread good ideas, but also to demolish bad ideas.

I don't care what anybody says, but the people who implement it an enforce it, that's another problem entirely. He's got a bullshit job title for a bullshit job. Does he have power or does he just have rhetoric?

A good way to limit absolutely unnecessary carbon emissions is for a group to cross into northern Iraq from Turkey, pick up a few SA-18s from the open air arms bazaar, then use them to take out any private jet flying a climate czar around.

Let’s start with two simple axioms:


  1. Certain sorts of the mentally ill seek power over others as they cannot control themselves. it’s a way to try to substitute regulating the world around them for self-stability by seeking to make their own internal dysregulation seem fitting or laudable; it’s environment as surrogate for self.


  2. The anxious and insecure seek out powerful patrons/ideologies to which to conform in order to feel “safe.” when you have little faith in your own identity or drives, the desire to be subsumed and validated by the will of others is a powerful opiate; again environment as surrogate for self.



The confluence of these two trends creates the alliance that is the DEI calamity: it’s an externalization of internal instability.

It also ensures its endless escalation until it eats itself an fiery singularity of absurdity because staying atop the hierarchy requires ever more intense and baroque protestations of marginalization and fealty.
