What happened to the right to speak the truth?

[–] [email protected] 38 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Their truth.

Their alternative facts.

The actual truth is for snowflakes and liberals to get upset over.

From the same people who scream and bitch and moan about their right of free speech. It's only their right apparently.

Everything they accuse china and the opposition of doing it something they do or want to do themselves.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Every accusation is a confession.

Same as russia. Classic faschist strategy.

[–] [email protected] 73 points 2 days ago (3 children)

A lot of people here thinking the USA is speed running fascism here.

No, the USA was always an inspiration to fascism (just ask the remaining Native Americans as an example).

That's why it was able to adopt into it so quick. Not that hard to change a car to gasoline if it was already running on diesel.

Before WW2 broke out, the New York Times LOVED Mussolini. They kept pumping out articles about how much of a cool guy he was.

What if we called the original people Americans, and the newcomers immigrant Americans?

Clarity: Native American -> American

American -> Immigrant American

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

All life on land is an immigrant is it not?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Not really. Those are human made concepts, so you must start from the inception of the concept of immigration. Good luck finding the exact date, since it predates written language :/

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Well since dates are human concepts as well we can just state it is immigration date 00/00/0000. Are the months or days first? That's up to you, haha. You make a good point, but you understand what I mean. If we consider immigration only being the integration into another state permanently then we would have to say we had mostly open immigration into the U.S. until the later parts of the 1800s. The first 99 years there were no real immigration laws here. (So roughly 40% of our history had no immigration restrictions for the most part)

Is almost a good analogy, but that's not so easy 😅

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well it did take awhile, but it's definitely easier than turning a horse into an electric car

Frying fat would have been better, because most older diesels run on it out of the box.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Who gets their frying fat in a box?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

just have to replace the engine, how hard could it be? /s

better analogy would be converting a (relatively modern) gas engine to E85, it's simpler, from what i understand

Yep, but to be fair, he's not an expert in archaeology, so probably he didn't realise.

Meteorologist fired, picture unrelated.

Had to do some memeological research; that's Yeon-mi Park, a North Korean defector on the Joe Rogan Podcast saying "in North Korea ..."

she makes up shit about how bad life in is NK, like "we have to get out and push the train when it stops"
