I posted this on another thread, but I think a lot of it bears repeating. The justification for tearing down these statues lies in the reality of the Confederacy and how it began.
Here’s how Germany commemorates the spot where Hitler died. Maybe Southern towns could take a tip from the pros.
I’m a Southerner, born and bred, and these people are fucking appalling. The Confederates were not American soldiers and every last one of the leaders of the secessionist movement were traitors.
Video game consumer culture has gotten so toxic people are upset at a gaming company for selling cosmetic items that consumers are more than happy buying with no impact on the actual game. When has the concept of “I am not interested in this product so I won’t buy it” turned in to “I am not interested in this product…
Having 60 million people without insurance yet having a law that mandates emergency treatment and stabilization for all, regardless of ability to pay. Forcing ~18% of the population (and there is a lot of evidence that the uninsured are less healthy than the general population) to use the MOST EXPENSIVE TREATMENT…
Should the people on the way out of this life be the ones making decisions for those of us who will still be here in 6 months?

It’s really really bad. And for me personally, 50 games is a lot of time just to get to my actual skill level. That doesn’t count bad games, and even if I do play enough to get to my natural SR, the grind to go up is even slower, because they slam the brakes on how much you gain from then on!
Exactly. He’s Dorian Gray and we’re his portrait.
I just posted something similar upthread.
“Sure Bobby, you can try out for the football team. Just an FYI, everyone on the football team is in the bible literacy class. It’s an optional class, totally your choice whether you take it or not. It won’t impact whether you make the team. Just want you to know that everyone on the team is in the class.”
Black people talk about crime within their own communities constantly. You don’t hear about it because it’s a problem that doesn’t effect or involve you, and that you only care about when you need a false equivalency to shutdown discussions about police brutality and racism.
They’ll treat him like shit after he commits.
Some golden not so oldies from Team Dump:
I think you forget there’s actual people behind the social media team, apart from the company itself. Many of the more “humanized” brand accounts are that way because the higher ups let the (typically very small) social team do whatever they want. It’s not a weird creepy brand trying to seep into your mind- it’s…
It seems so obvious that this was the cause. I mean, right? Even at first glance... How else could a concrete building just completely fireball like that so quickly? The flames seemed so obviously to be climbing along and wrapping the outside of the building...
