The hell it would. Fascism will drive with an empty bus, so to speak.

That’s typically in the midst of imminent armed violence, however.

Maturity is invading the First Step and getting the host to aggro Varre trying to hit you. Bonus points if you can get them to aggro Kale.

Oui.

If there’s an actual debate you’ve got to define terms. People’s definitions of ‘leftist’ can be pretty wild, especially if the debate is between an American and… mostly anyone outside America.

I have seen people waxing poetic about Imperial Japan and the Jakarta Method who consider themselves leftist, while at the same time associate outright NazBols with the left.

So ‘what do you actually mean by tankie/liberal?’ will usually cut through a lot of debate perv noise.

A fundamental disagreement on a foundational principle is going to be a hurdle, indeed.

I like her, and we also share some common ground. I am only interest in having sex with her. (I’m also not interested in any friendship).

Sort these sentences out for yourself.

Of course Babylon Bee chooses to take aim at people calling each other Nazis.

Fictional characters! Am I getting through to you at all?

This bill explicitly excludes batteries and storage of power. This just makes it so solar companies have to match their production with fossil fuel purchases.

It is to stop or slow expansion of renewables, as companies will essentially have to additionally and directly invest in fossil fuels to expand their industry.

My 1980s era construction is valued at over 400k. Neighbors been selling recently for 450k-480k. It’s wild that they’ve doubled in cost since covid, after doubling in cost after the bank failures before them.

From what I understand the transphobic comment from nutomic was from a publicized DM. So it’s a stretch, in that sense, to seek defederating an instance over it, as the ban is justified to begin with.

I am always so glad to see Matt and Ian still at it. Mac Hall were the days.

I still have a tick where I rate the shelterability of nooks and crannies in public spaces. Dry stairwell here, unlocked gate there, and so on.

It’s an odd feeling, being a homeowner these many years later.

I remember petting what I thought was my cat’s paw in the early morning hours once. Nope. She just left a mouse head on my pillow.

the rate (i.e percent) priests abuse.

damn does that church know how to run a cover up

You might say there is a discrepancy between actual rate and reported rate.

That’d be vanguardism. But that’s a component of Leninism, which is itself subset of Marxism.

A part of a part of Marxism probably shouldn’t be a working definition of the whole.

What makes a man, Mr. Lebowski? Is it being prepared to do the right thing, whatever the cost? Isn’t that what makes a man?’

(Endless) Knot Cornell.

Hmm.
