There is something seriously wrong with the #USA when a #McDonalds in #Ukraine is prioritized above taking care of and treating veterans that we’ve traumatized and given #PTSD because we wanted to fight largely illegitimate or unjustified wars overseas.
@luke@threalist@wjmaggos@gmcgath@EvilSandmich Eh. A lotta things were super suspicious, but I will say that I get why the cop shot into the crowd that day, he was severely outnumbered and getting backed into a corner. Maybe #AshliBabbitt herself didn’t do anything, but the crowd was violent enough to warrant a shot, and #AshliBabbitt should have left the crowd rather than try to sway it.
@wjmaggos The funniest thing about this to me is that #Tarrio got uncovered as an #FBI informant, killing the #ProudBoys movement, and many in the right actually thought he was one of the feds behind the #Jan6 violence at first. It’s strange to see them now up in arms about the sentencing of someone they were calling a fed and accusing of exactly what he’s been convicted of just a year or two ago.
@gabriel True. I frankly don’t think that crypto isn’t much different than fiat currencies, except that they are by default inflation-resistant. You can buy existing coins but you can’t make new ones on the fly.
But since they’re not used commonly as a primary source of currency, I prefer to treat them like digital stocks rather than actual money.
I wonder how many children are actually being protected properly by their parents or any guardians whatsoever.
Looking at the incels and feminists running rampant, precious few. And it’s not just a protection thing, but a general parenting issue. The previous generation of parents is probably the worst generation of parents I can think of, although to be fair that may be the fault of Baby Boomers
@freemo@thatguyoverthere Not yet, no; although now in some parts of the #USA at least, the government will take away your kids if you refuse to have them cut up in some cases
