If a grey user replies to your post then you can dismiss him and his post will disappear if no one starred him first.

It often has nothing to do with politics as a whole, but if you’re greyed out, unproductive comments will often just be hidden at times. If your “anti-Biden” post had little to do with anything and was just unproductive complaining, there’s a good chance they disappeared it. Especially if it was on The Root or…

When are we going to stop pretending that the followers of Christian faith aren’t responsible for more pain and suffering than any other group in human history? Why is there still this social stigma shrouding atheism? It’s ridiculous and mind boggling that we still cling to the idea that atheists are somehow less…

A higher percentage of Yugos that came off the line are still in use than Nissan 240sx, Mitsubishi Eclipse or Ford Probes.  I was in the Balkans recently and you would be surprised how many I saw still tooling along the countryside.

Counterpoint — horizontal speedometers and wide split-bench seats are two things that should never have been pushed out of style by cookie-cutter cars like the Accord.

So she’s just driving around town yelling racist shit at people who are minding their own fucking business...

“The neighbors say they just want peace and fear someone will get hurt if the woman’s behavior continues.”

I am reading the subtext to this statement and all I can say is if Patricia Schmidt keeps fucking around, she’s gonna find out.

Maybe they don’t have the 3k to pay out of pocket for the new battery? I guess they could take out a subprime payday loan for the battery. Nope, I’d just sell it.

I think the ones who were exploited were the American taxpayers who bought a war on terror as we rallied around the flag to the tune of $2.26 trillion only for the country we occupied for 20 years to devolve into chaos minutes after we leave.

Not mentioned: Why they were chasing him at all.

The US got exactly what it wanted out of its occupation of Afghanistan for decades — staggering amounts of wealth transferred to the military, defense contractors, and mercenary groups, continual justification for increased defense budgets, and a steady supply of dark money for our intelligence services via resumed…

Ignoring the history of the region — notably the US building (with money and guns and propaganda) a fundamentalist movement to destroy the pro-Soviet Afghan government (one which despite its many faults actually enshrined equal rights and education for women and girls), then claiming the lack of rights for women and…

I don’t think this piece gives too much power to feminists, per se, so much as it points out the easy/fundamental alliance between (white) Western bourgeois feminism and rapacious imperialism. Feminist lobbying did not make the US invade Afghanistan. It did, however, provide cover on the left (however you’d like to…

Potential failure mode plays a big part in why it works the way it works. If the car goes into some sort of a limp mode or won’t drive when a door is open, an otherwise minor sensor failure or code issue with it’s “door closed” signal becomes a tow-truck situation. On the other hand if that sensor fails and the driver…

When I was a kid I was pumping gas for my mom. This was all pre pay at the pump. And usually pumps were left on. I got out, put the nozzle in the car and tried to get gas. Spent probably about 5 minutes waiting. Finally realized they weren’t going to turn it on.  Went inside to ask them to turn it on.  Came back out…

Intelligence has never been the key to wealth. Greed isn't a form of intelligence.

Yep. They just pop out of a quick release valve. Not really a big deal. But super embarrassing.

And passengers, the way the door bounced off the side of the bus, it could easily have put a window out and have the glass hurt a passenger.

Of course you’re also assuming that police didn’t lie on ANY important details, right?
Cops lie on reports, on live TV press conferences, even when the shooting is justified...and that leads to lying when it’s not.
If the family believes they have enough evidence to show a lie, let them speak.
