I have questions about how necessary it was to fire at the woman in the first place.

•if she’s in an empty lobby with her and her son, and two security officers, could they not have tried to negotiate and get the kid away first?

•Did security actually see “materials consistant with manufacturing explosives” inside her trenchcoat before firing, or is that something they alleged after they shot a 7yo in the head. There were no explosives found on her body or at home.

I know it’s hard to judge these situations, but I feel like there could have been a resolution where the kid doesn’t sacrificed by everyone involved.

His line will become the party line. Or this will be another compromise he pushes to get elected then reneges on, like his Healthcare plan that is still 2 weeks away.

It’s weird… do you think Elliot cares what OP’s pirated copies list their name as, when the legal copies on stream have already updated the name? Would it not be better to pay for the content and support the artist that way?

This is one of the strangest virtue signals I’ve ever seen. Just watch the mediocre show and move on.

The structure was built by monsters. This is the intended use of religion.

That would have to be negotiated in the Police Union contracts. Same reason they can’t fire pedo teachers immediately, they are contractually obligated to keep paying them until they are investigated or found guilty.

Most of these cops “retire” to end the internal investigation and keep their benefits, then decide to “unretire”, and get hired in the next town with a clean record.

The police have one of the strongest unions in America, and almost no one bats an eye. But let Starbucks employees try to unionize and you’ll hear how greedy and corrupt unions are.

I’m not about to be lectured by a bunch SJW activists, even if I generally agree with them. I can’t blame her there, it sounds unbearable.

But she knew what the deal was when she skipped those meetings, and you can’t come back with a law suit saying you were unfairly fired. She chose to not play the game, but still wants the disney paychecks.

Not for someone to be a stalker. You’re saying the only thing keeping some people from being a stalker is how easy the info is to find, or parse, even.

So they get the equivalent of “10’s of thousands of dollars” (appraised by the school), and the schools get to rake in millions on ticket sales + concessions, broadcasting deals and merchandise with the kid’s name on it, and if the kid complains or does anything to make money independently, which is every American’s right, they lose that scholarship and get kicked out of the sport?

Still sounds like exploitation to me.

It’s a joke. Let go of your pearls.

They only have the shooter now. We’ll see if the pos Republican that hired him gets a slap on the wrist or jail. Hell, in AZ they might not even ban him from politics.

They didn’t have most of Walking Dead when we looked into it last year. We would have had to sub to maybe 3 services to get a full rewatch.

This is a nothing story. That’s not brutal, it’s not even mockery. It’s a throwaway joke at a circlejerk dinner for politicos.

Article spends a paragraph recounting this BRUTAL TAKEDOWN, then 10 paragraphs recapping Boebert’s recent history.

What Fox News does to a motherfucker…

We have corporate protections in the USA.

Your virtue signal is a little bright. You should adjust the wattage.

Do you respect Rudy’s career?

Shitting your pants in court, doing a presser in a landscaping company’s parking lot and doing another with shoe polish dripping down his face shouldn’t have partisan opinions. The man is a buffoon. Nevermind all the sexual harrassment, “middle-manning” for Trump’s corruption, stochastic terrorism and espionage.

If Trump wins, we won’t have fair elections in 2028. Do they need to see a second insurrection to get off the fence?

There was a short segment on 60 Minutes (maybe?) back in 2020 before the elections where they interviewed someone who had deprogrammed himself from Qanon.

It was the same story. He had no friends IRL, no social support, he had turned his mom onto Qanon and she was still down the rabbit hole.

He said that was the part that kept him in it for so long, even once he started questioning things. All his “friends” and close relations were part of the cult and he would have to cut ties with everyone or worse, they would turn on him and attack him as a traitor.

It would be sad if these online-cults weren’t so damaging to society.

I could see cryptobros and the “investing” subs spending a lot on this. They were already buying tons of awards to hype themselves up.

Any unironic circlejerk cult will by buying these and pinning them on each other’s chest, same as the dumbass awards.

I think reddit knows their target audience pretty well; Rubes. That’s why they let all the toxic “stock”, crypto-scam and political extremist subs stay open until the media starts writing stories about them. Gullible idiots spend a lot of money trying to make their opinions look smart and popular.

This will make Reddit a lot of money in the short-term, but probably push more legitimate/casual users away as these “premium upvotes” will surely effect the algorithm and push more nonsense into people’s feeds.

Now that i think about it, this will probably help advertisers and political groups astroturf all of reddit.

Having proper diagnoses for people help them get care and treatment. It’s better than calling them all “stupid” and ignoring their struggles, which has been the case for decades.

Most of these “fancy new labels” you’re hearing lately are just recognizing people, so they can be included in society and treated with dignity.
