I meant to comment it when they were throwing a fit about it a couple weeks ago, but Democrats know exactly what they are doing when they demand ICE Agents not cover their faces, and this is the outcome they are hoping for.

The funniest thing to me about the situation is I distinctly remember how back during covid you had leftist, with their pop culture addled brain, pointing out how "Batman, Spiderman, all superheroes wear masks!"

And now you have people wearing masks while they enforce the law, so they can protect their identities and the ones they love from enemies who would do they harm. And those same leftists hate them. Makes me go

A lot of those islands are crazy Mormon.

From what I've heard, it's because Mormons tend to have the best schools. If you want your kid to get a decent education, you send them to the Mormon school.

Is everyone still all mad at Trump now or what? I think everyone is going off the deep end..

my biggest issue with Trump is that i think he hasn't done enough to put payment processors back in their place. his wife and son were debanked and endless politically spicy people on his side have been blocked from using normal payment options and the most he's done towards that so far is taking us one more step towards CBDC? i would have prioritized neutral banking enforcement over fluff like renaming military bases or the gulf

Yeah, Kevin Smith did that - he made some tweet about someone calling him out for being alone on a hike outside while wearing a covid mask. The irony is Batman's cowl doesn't cover his mouth.

AI as of now is nothing more than a advanced chatbot, and these people lauding it as the 2nd coming of Christ need to find help.

Also by the sounds if it this guy seems to think humans should be come slaves to AI which Im sure won’t cause any problems what so ever

Even jews don't deny his existence.

We also don't confirm it. Talmud never explicitly mentions him (that guy in gehenna is not Jesus, he's another guy 100 years prior to the birth of Jesus)

AOC doing an AOC.

Making everyone mad.

I'm far superior Anglo-Franco-German mix. With a touch of Spanish nobility for flavor.

The french part of me hates the german part and vice versa, the anglo part hates both of them, and meanwhile the Scottish and the touch of Iberian in me are plotting against the other three.

Robert M. Price certainly does, among a number of others. The edit history of the wiki pages of Jesus and Historical Jesus have been quite thing to watch over the last fifteen years or so, and while it does currently say "no scholars argue he didn't exist" the foot note literally sources those that do.

All I am saying is saying scholarship uniformly agrees on anything is probably gonna get pushback.

Have a good nap grandpa.

Price needs to stick to editing Lovecraft stuff.

That tweets response was hilarious. Got to see horseshoe theory in action as both far right and far left had the same exact opinions

Omar Fateh has just won the Democrat Endorsement for Mayor of Minneapolis.

Omar Fateh once gave a speech at City Hall in which he said, "You want to know who the real threat is? They don't look like the folks up in the gallery or on the rotunda [pointing to Black people.] They look like many of the members that sit in the front [pointing to White people.]"

NY Post article.
And I think he’s just fine with ‘white people’ as long as they’re the right kind of ‘white people’ (you know the ones I mean) and backing his campaign.

If this is talking about King Herod dying in Matthew after his massacre of male babies/toddlers in Judaea but appears later on to have John the Baptist executed, I'd like to point out the practice of names being passed down through dynasties. Detractors = modern day Sadducees who claim to be "experts" about scriptural issues but really aren't as they try to push for secularization by trying to look through a book without error with a fine-toothed comb to find something to lie about and spin.

@Potion_Time - Re: Herod, yes, The Jewish War by Josephus opens with a biographical account of King Herod's life, and what is known about him lines up with the account of his life in the New Testament - paranoid and jealous man prone to violent outbursts. Incidentally, I've seen some atheist Jews revile Christians and deny Jesus's existence in the process.

As @inetsone gathered I was referring to Herod being born in 72 BC and supremely unlikely to ever interacted with Jesus. Detractors in scholarship and academia use this inconsistency and, as there are a lot of independent accounts of Herod, throw historical Jesus out. It is fairly common from my experience in academia, and as someone who's primary focus was historical theory, it's an interesting debate.

God, can you imagine how crazy that pussy is? I don't even read anything she writes or listen to anything she says. I assume she's legit the craziest pussy in the world. I bet the sex is wild af.

Moist is a pseudointellectual faggot, he's an unironic centrist

Centrist? The dude is a full blown lefty and quite literally always has been. Didn’t forget how much he was behind BLM during the George Floyd bullshit? Or how he was playing Among Us with AOC? The only thing centrist about him is the parting of his hair

 

[X Prime]

In my experience, I have to say that I don't think that the woman being crazy necessarily translates to them being good in bed.

He called himself a centrist multiple times pre-2020, I don't really keep up with the guy but he seems more performative if anything.

I don't think he's necessarily "fine" with them, he's just happy to use any White liberals as useful idiots should they support him.

You're right, it doesn't. The toothless methed out bitch at the bar probs isn't going to be that much fun. I've found tho that there's a range of woman. The crazier ones can be a lot of fun. Like blonde Russian women, for example, are legit nuts as fucking hell. They are stone cold ice and they will stab you in your sleep for lolz. They also fuck like it's the end of the world. Just saying.
