I dunno, competing claimants to the French crown weighing in on Twitter as to whether Louis XVI would support BLM is a pretty high bar to clear. edit: https://twitter.com/louisducdanjou/status/1266578058452054016 https://twitter.com/PJComtedeParis/status/1266861482475749376 Terrifying Effigies fucked around with this message at 01:49 on Jun 4, 2020 |

One of the amazing knock on effects of the protests going national so quickly is that even if some/most PDs manage to maintain discipline for a couple days there's always a couple high profile incidents where the cops in a major city go wild and it feeds back into the national protest narrative. Some city officials have been trying to run the traditional playbook of co-opting protest leaders and local community leaders to let the air out of the movement (see Atlanta's attempt with Killer Mike etc) but the fact that there isn't any centralized leadership or list of demands has completely flummoxed them. It's really uncharted waters as to how this will all go, the US hasn't had massive nationwide protests since the Iraq War and that required a concerted across the board anti-protestor media campaign to quash.

There might also be a bit of survivor bias involved, there used to be a lot more distinct subcultures/groups/sects/religions throughout Europe and the Middle East but most ended up getting wiped out or assimilating over time. Or in other words, LtCol J. Krusinski posted:Also: We were chosen. The rest of you werent. =P

Riot Carol Danvers posted:Hahahaha a trash convention moved to a trash city, how fitting Hey now, JAX is easily one of the top 10 swamp cities in northeastern Florida. Fallom posted:Some interesting thoughts but the discussion doesn't attempt to explain "why the virus is spreading so unevenly", it just leaves that topic off with this: For whatever reason it hasn't exploded in the Atlanta metro yet, whereas out in the rural communities it's been spreading like wildfire. Some of the counties around Albany and Gainesville are up there with NYC in terms of per capita cases (1-3K per 100K), but still low in absolute numbers compared to major cities. The pops in NC and SC are a bit more evenly distributed with more mid-sized towns and cities so maybe there's more chances for outbreaks to gain momentum.

Haha that's amazing. "Well you see, while Jefferson wrote 'all men are created equal,' it's obvious that he did not at the time consider African Americans as 'men,' and also was deliberately excluding women from the statement."

facialimpediment posted:Yeah oops, I had that in a previous draft. It all really just blends into a self-sustaining human centipede of poo poo. The rumor going around is that two units got into a brawl up on a narrow ridge and a bunch on both sides ended up falling into a ravine - at least some of the official reporting seems to line up with it. The terrain is so high and treacherous that the troops they send up there need to spend a couple weeks acclimating on top of rigorous mountain training, sounds like one of the worst possible places to fight in. https://twitter.com/Iyervval/status/1272881015627841536

I forget which goon works up at GNMP but one of the guys I work with makes an annual trip up to Gettysburg for the 4th, this year he said he's going on the 3rd because 'there's a big crowd of protestors coming up to burn flags and pull down statues in the cemetery.' I told him there's honestly enough gaudy monuments up there the Park Service probably wouldn't mind if a couple got dismantled. Does Gettysburg get much in the way of protests? There's certainly enough Confederate stuff around but it's a bit of a ways to get to from Philly or DC/Baltimore.

And as we all know, young people these days won't even give their poor Nana's low-key racist Facebook post a like, much less come by to visit sometimes. I'd be really interested in seeing how many of those new cases are from service and retail industry employees given those fields are mostly 18-35 year olds and don't really have a choice in getting exposed to hundreds of potential carriers a day now that DeSantis has opened everything.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:Is that really how the law around gated communities works? Once you're inside the gates, any schmuck who lives there can treat the entire neighborhood as their backyard and order you to leave under threat of force? That doesn't sound right. Different state, but George Zimmerman shot Trayvon Martin in a gated apartment complex.

Smear Trump Reading Tooze's Crashed at the moment and this quote seems relevant: "[I]f the arguments in the coming years are between spending freezes and spending cuts, then we've already won" - National Review 2011 on the ongoing debates over Simpson-Bowles aka the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform Not trying to stir things up but Biden's almost certainly going to continue the Clinton/Obama/Third Way playbook of 'fiscal responsibility'/deficit reduction and relying heavily on private industry vs government-run efforts to deal with critical issues, while only making cursory gestures towards raising taxes on the rich and big business. For your non-Evangelical Business Conservative you're really not losing out and can always use the time to drum up funding for the next round in 2022 and 2024.
