Let’s not forget that women have been tied up, duct-taped, sexually abused, had their wrists slashed and were left for dead near the border. Who could have done this? Cartel? Coyote? Secret Mexican Muslim Terrorist?

The idea that there’s such a thing as a legal, permitted strike is ridiculous. Strikes are supposed to be disruptive direct action by labor to force the hand of the capital class into negotiation. Letting the overclass dictate when the workers are “legally allowed” to engage in this behavior is absurd.

They remind me of the drivers on the street that runs in front of my neighborhood who stare at their phone, following the incorrect (lower) speed limit that Waze lists and flipping off people who pass them.

There’s been an issue with circular reasoning before in regards to these claims of “national security”. It goes something like “We currently bar X group from working in this agency. If a member of X is employed here, they could be blackmailed based on being X and have to choose between compromising national security…

A simple transcription error!

This is the same zero-tolerance bullshit that leads to kids getting suspended for getting bullied.

[...]men are assumed, from the outset, to “only want one thing”, and “have needs” that must be met by women who are not you. If you fail in your gatekeeper role, however, you have at minimum become a slut and therefore must be shunned; at worst, you “ask for it” and have proven yourself unworthy of the protections of…

These statues are used, in and of themselves, to attempt to revise and erase that history. They’re erected and supported by people who want you to believe that the Civil War was about anything but slavery or the subjugation of blacks, believers of the Lost Cause myth and “Northern Aggression”. There are similar…

Had a trip a few months ago that involved a leg between Kentucky and Atlanta at night. I knew I’d finally gotten into Georgia because the Interstate had lights.

From the Motherboard article linked to in this one:

From there, he segued into gore porn, talking about women being tied up and having duct tape placed over their mouths.

It’s at least partially the “hire more women prison guards” mentality, the same one that’s led other people - including at least one failed candidate for Congress - to claim that merely getting more women into political office, including Republican women, would be a great victory for progressive causes.

They’ll omit quick start guides, or write rulebooks out of order in terms of how a turn resolves, and aaahhhhh here we go again my head hurts.

Roberts and Gorsuch may push back against this kind of UET because they’re conservative dicks. Remember, the GOP playbook is that if a Republican is in the White House we have a Unitary Executive with broad power; if the President is a Democrat we have Parliamentary Sovereignty and the President can’t blow his nose…

And 2 helps fuel 1 which feeds back into 2 and so on: the destruction of labor has led to most education being in two rough “tiers” - the AP/IB kids who are college-bound for only those STEM fields that mean they’ll never actually have to do strenuous physical labor, and the rest of the kids who can go to one of those…

1 - It allows colleges and universities to become “voter registration agencies”, meaning a State-appointed location in which people are able to obtain the resources necessary to register to vote. Those registrations are then transmitted to the requisite State election officials, who are in many states the only ones…

For all the “Well, it’s Georgia, what do you expect” commenters:

I saw a tank show up woefully underequipped for a Roulette dungeon my fiancee was running. I don’t mean “a few levels behind”, either - I mean “was wearing the Brand-New (Lv. 15 role tutorial reward) set in a Lv. 43 dungeon”. Only his weapon was on-level. He also couldn’t tank to save his life - never used his ranged…

Depending on the mechanics, a bad DPS can in fact get an otherwise competent party killed. They could:

Oh, that’s not the craziest shit they’ve done. Check out Operation Snow White:
