Twitter is flogging pictures of the dead suspect, who is brown-skinned. So right-wing fever swamp poo poo is in full effect.

Tiny Timbs posted:Why are the mods/admins obsessed with keeping around posters besides me who suck and are a drag to everyone around them? It sounds like this person should’ve been dumped long before. Speaking from experience as an ex-mod who had to deal with a few deranged shitheads, it's partially the energy it takes to get them gone (because idiots re-reg and tilt at windmills and it's extremely tiresome to have to chase down alts and re-regs), partially the pushback you get from the community you're modding that calls you a weak simp who can't take criticism because they love their bro's antics, and partially you just don't have the loving time to deal with the insane level of output they put out. It's not that they're being kept around. It's that even in SA, the "we will ban you for anything" forum, it takes more effort sometimes than it's worth.

Seems weird for the vet forum of all places not to full grasp the idea of the shitbag who sticks around just because it takes one more BTU to get rid of them than it does to tolerate them

Vincent Van Goatse posted:What do British Thermal Units have to do with the forums? it's the only measure of energy I remembered. The big problem was you had offsite forums full of banned posters trying to brainstorm ways to stir poo poo up in here. It was too much effort to remember biographical details about "shitposter #8 on the internet forum you volunteer to mod", and it seemed increasingly silly to spend time and mental effort on it when I had a life and a family. So when they started Photoshopping pictures of me into weird poo poo, and the vibe around here got weird and hostile even with the regulars, and I realized I had been out of the military as long as I had been in it, I figured yeah the juice is not worth the squeeze

Stultus Maximus posted:That's not how ship naming works. There's no "we just name presidents in order" convention. HW Bush and Ford were both decorated Navy combat veterans. I feel like you're slighting George W. Bush here, as there is not one single record of a successful Viet Cong sortie over Texas during is time in the Air National Guard there

Platystemon posted:Dubya’s military service controversy is so quaint by today’s standards. What's funny is it's essentially an iteration of Dan Quayle's from a decade prior to that. Both children of privilege who managed to duck into the Nasty Guard. Except W was a fighter pilot. Quayle was a welder.

Discussion Quorum posted:shhhh you're going to wake up Korematsu I believe that Hispanics are both more dispersed and more thoroughly integrated into our culture and economy than Japanese-Americans were in WW2. So any attempt would be doomed to failure, although I'll admit they'd still try and it would come at an immense human cost. I wouldn't even past some variant of "just one drop" laws making a comeback

CainFortea posted:No, actually, not everything warrants a discussion. Reminds me of my biggest criticism of Obama, which is that Republicans would tell him "we would like to kick you in the nuts as hard as we can exactly 10 times", and he would counter with "I would like it to be zero times" and then they'd start negotiating it down to 5

shame on an IGA posted:OTOH I'm invited to a townhall meeting of all the DNC chair candidates later this month (finally replacing the guy that spent $120mm losing to Lindsey Graham by 10 points) and am extremely open to suggestions of what is the funniest question I can possibly ask them Ask Martin O'Malley what kind of balls it takes telling SSA employees "together we are stronger" in his loving resignation email

Panama was a low-cost military operation to remove a drug kingpin with an ability to threaten world trade. Don't ask who helped make him a drug kingpin, please

I always thought it was a dumb and childish belief, but now I start to see the basic appeal of accelerationism. Just a "gently caress it, you assholes wanted this, slurp it up" resignation to the horrors. It's still dumb and childish, but I recognize the pull it has.

That email obviously came from OPM and was routed through our Internal Communications email. I wanted to reply to it with just "unsubscribe", but as my boss pointed out, there's a 99% chance nothing happens and 1% chance something bad does, so why chance it

Random thought- besides the obvious gimme of Walter Peck (Ghostbusters), which fictional bureaucrat would almost certainly be part of the Trump Administration

Kesper North posted:Ghostbusters was a Republican comedy, a comedy designed for conservatives by conservatives. Walter Peck was an EPA whistleblower, not a future member of the Trump Administration. I hate to tell you this, but that man... is a Democrat. Peck literally arrested a teenage girl for slander. He's Trumpy through and through

not caring here posted:I assume deporting an actual citizen probably costs ICE a fairly significant settlement to make it go away. Qualified immunity goes a long way. If ICE were genuinely vulnerable to legal consequences for their behavior, they'd have sunk the Treasury already with settlements.
