Bernie is one of those globalists like Soros and Epstein and Dershowitz, right?

No idea, but given the way you asked, you likely already know.

Sounds like Portland got crazy yesterday after the white trash showed up with plastic shields and other cosplay gear for military rejects.

Your brain is broken. Log off the internet and let it heal.

One example to the contrary doesn't change Trump's previous actions facilitating fascism. Biden is indefensible. It's frustrating as hell that the DNC is incompetent enough to potentially lose a second slam dunk election in a row. Self-defeating doesn't enough begin to describe the national party. But anyone with a moral compass and pretty basic aptitude should be opposing Trump right now, unless they've been voting for Buchanan, Perot, etc. The people buying into what he's selling without already holding that belief aren't thinking for themselves. If you don't like Biden and aren't in the states that matter, vote 3rd party.

Ben Shapiro ranting about the song and making it clear he's never gotten a woman wet before was pretty hilarious.

Have you ever posted on here that you can be found at the Ralph wearing a MAGA hat? My recollection is that you did, but it may have been John W.

Haha, I hadn't seen the first one. He's kinda gone off the deep end, but it doesn't change what he created. Someone should explain to him that addressing everyone who disagrees with you online is not a good use of time.

As long as it doesn't infringe upon patents/copyrights/etc and isn't harmful to others (which is subjective), it should be allowed. Also, minimize environmental degradation, but not with bureaucracy. My grandparents' former homestead in Western ND was used by some Texas fly by night scum to dump their hazardous waste on their way out of town. Crucify those bastards.

Hamsterdam, which I referenced a few pages back. The scene with Bubbles walking through it was intense. I'm left-libertarian and generally agree with full on legalization assuming the drugs are monitored and don't get cut with nasty stuff. It boggles my mind that fellow libertarians are cool with populism (Trump OR Sanders) and how many slid so easily into fascism aka authoritarianism.

Feel free to cite actual characters, situations, and topics from the show. The Wire was the greatest show ever made, and I considered using it as a paper topic in academia. Love to discuss it with anyone, anytime.

Sounds like you watched, but didn't understand, The Wire.

LOL'd at liberal aliens probing. Haha

On my way back to my beach house until there's a vaccine. Sorry to disappoint.

You mean to tell me the hedge funds who hold the majority of Apple and Nike stock won't have 20% returns for their investors born into multi-generational wealth?!?!? The horror....the horror. Oh wait, they also hold Amazon stock, so they won't bat an eye. Few if any small/local businesses were impacted, and the mall right there is doing curbside pick up. Also, while Apple was closed, Nike is open.

As of today, I can report that the city of Portland is surprisingly not in bad shape at all. Decent amount of windows boarded up near the downtown precinct, but most of it is covered in very impressive street art. More of the stores and restaurants are open than I expected. Some stray spray paint hasn't been covered up, but it's clearly been overblown. The site of the assault the other night looked like it did when I got off the train there for the last however many years. Pics are a tag near the precinct, the Apple store, Nike store (loving the Neil Young lyrics) and precinct itself in that order. Obviously this is daytime, but there are no signs of burnings, broken windows, etc.

Especially the weather.

Crime goes up in a recession, could it have anything to do with that? Is Minneapolis the new Detroit, taking the crown from Fargo?

Using the Charlie Kirk "I wonder why" as part of an argument is not a good way to be taken seriously. I'm not offended if you address the fact that it is black-on-white crime that has so many people riled up. Just be forward with it in a coherent manner. The big difference between the two is one has a lone wolf acting out with others trying to prevent his actions, while the other has accomplices aiding and abetting his actions. Both belong in jail regardless of context. But when Floyd first came into the news, my first thought was what did he do to get arrested; had he shot at a cop (or civilian) it would have been much more justified.

Elliot Rodger and Roy Den Hollander would be proud of this post.

I want the context of the situation before coming to a conclusion. If he was minding his own business it would be different than if he was behaving like the people in the video. Again, one person acted out, not the entire group of people. PS, did Fargo ever become the new Detroit? You voiced some thinly-veiled concerns about the direction of your own town in that infamous thread.

I see one person acting out with others trying unsuccessfully to restrain him. Certainly not enough to convince me that the entire movement is violent or Portland is no longer a safe place to live. I'm curious about the back story of the guy assaulted, why was he there and what resulted in his truck crashing? @Oxbow6 Speaking of folks driving by BLM activists, What are your thoughts on this video?

Link? Chances are I won't approve of it unless it was Andy Ngo getting beat up.
