How much stuff do you usually order online that you’re surprised by that?

I always picture some flat earth guy stumped about what is at the edge of the world and then he stumbles on the first episode of Game of Thrones.

Insert Dicaprio pointing at TV meme

Why do I keep seeing this particular comparison? It’s the least obvious part of the whole thing. The rest was clearly a Nazi salute. Without that context you may think he’s clutching his chest because he’s having a heart attack or something.

Edit: nevermind I’m just dumb. I guess gifs don’t auto load on my Lemmy client anymore. I swear they used to.

You’re talking about a guy that could pay 100 million dollars for a new account and not even notice. He obviously wouldn’t pay anywhere near that much for something like this. There is no financial cost you can force on him that will change his behavior.

You’re making a lot of unfounded assumptions about what would have happened if Trump were assassinated. No one else has been able to harness MAGA energy the way he has. It’s entirely possible the movement would splinter without its figurehead. We won’t know that until he’s gone. Although it seems less likely now that he presumably has 4 years to enact policy changes and put people in place to keep his agenda moving after his term is up.

There’s plenty of debate to be had on the topic of the effectiveness of guns in civil resistance. All of which can be found in more detail elsewhere than we’re going to be able to cover here. However, suffice it to say that your understanding of resistance in general and guerilla tactics specifically is severely lacking if you’re assuming that this situation would play out as an open confrontation between the US military and some sort of militia. Despite the fact that such a conflict would provide more room for maneuvering than you are giving it credit, that would not be the preferred method of engagement. Generals and other senior officers have to buy groceries and go to the DMV just like everyone else. You pick your targets when and where you can get them. More than anything else, it’s important to acknowledge that in the situation where it becomes necessary to think about these kinds of things in more detail, my guns afford me many more options than your knives (or whatever else you prefer to rely on) would. Unless, of course, you plan on giving up without a fight, in which case we clearly have such different outlooks that additional discussion will not help us find common ground.

If there was ANY chance that The 2nd Amendment could pose ANY threat to a tyrannical government, it would have been destroyed decades ago.

Somebody almost killed Trump in July. A couple of inches was the difference between a Republican party in chaos just before the election and a party united behind their fascist hamberdler. The way this is going the 2A is going to be your only real defense against modern Nazism so you’d be better off hitting the range and getting proficient with a firearm than you are posting pics with #resist on Instagram.

Yeah yeah we get it, everyone is wrong but you and all that.

Halo 3 was the last unique Halo game. Everything since has just been an increasingly steep slide towards being a COD clone set in space.

For real though, film critics are largely useless these days. It’s like they can’t tell the difference between a film made for Cannes and a film made for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Not everything needs to be deep and meaningful on a personal level. Films shouldn’t be penalized for not being something they were never intended to be.

That top one is the reason I can’t watch soccer. What a lame thing to watch a professional athlete do.

I haven’t played most of the popular games released this year but I know they’re not any good

If a server gets enough boosts they can add largely useless extra stuff like more custom stickers and emojis. There’s a few legit benefits like higher quality audio / video and being able to create a custom server invite link but it’s mostly fluff.

JNCO is making a comeback. Go find those pants and live your uncomfortably lopsided dreams.

Yeah you definitely couldn’t live without a specific VR headset.

48 hours is only for regular cases with one or two cops assigned. High profile stuff like this gets considerably more attention and resources for a longer period of time

Nothing about 3D animation is ideal. It’s all about reasonable approximations. Needing to build better GPUs to support tracing individual photons is insane when you could just slightly increase ambient lighting in the area of a light source.

Idk. People have been saying the last version of Windows was the best one for decades (with a couple of notable exceptions). Until they switch to something else in large enough numbers to get the right asshat with an MBA at Microsoft to pay attention they will just keep squeezing.

EE’s are the best E’s. Yeah, I said it.

You’re looking for logic in the wrong place friend.

Have you asked a nazi about that?
