understated element of Walter's life is that him being poor at the beginning of the show is 100% just because he sucks

sure the show takes place during the Great Recession but he had been a teacher for literally years before that and somehow never found a better job with his qualifications

The thing to keep in mind that the guys driving this are all massively influenced by post-war French fascism. Like it's all one-one with the New Right.
The problem with questioning birthright citizenship in the US context should not be looked at with its economic peers, but its geographic. There’s a historical reason it exists and it underpins the entire state organization in the Western Hemisphere. There exceptions in the WH also tie into that:

This just gave me a flashback to when Trey and Matt did their "woops climate change real actually?????" episode
Resistance libs welcomed South Park into the anti-Trump fold with open arms. Our founder Evan Urquhart was a bit less joyous to see the anti-woke edgelords of South Park recognize, at last, the dreadful pandora's box that widespread anti-wokeness opened up.

Eurofederalist elites have been pointing out that a united Europe could be a world power for generations to the almost total disinterest of the European public(s)
Yeah I think this is kinda close to how things end up panning out, that or no one really ever takes up the crown again. The outcome is more or less downstream of the US electorate
somehow the crown we threw in the gutter is going to be waiting for us to pick it up when we're able

100 Pounds to the first reporter who asks Trump if he's happy.
This will be remembered as the most pathetic moment in American history. What a needy fool.

One of the more difficult things about living in 2025 is knowing that the world would improve 275% if everyone who disliked Skyler White just dropped dead right now.

Breaking bad was about a guy who had many opportunities for his healthcare to be paid for (his former business partners, jrs accidental money laundering go fund me), but he preferred selling meth because ruining other people's lives feels more manly than accepting gifts.

when i was getting my car serviced so i could register in VA, the repair shop had a shuttle for me to get back to my place, and the guy who was driving me was genuinely convinced that "designated terrorist organization" was a legal status that gave the government the authority to strike
> they were “identified terrorist targets”
>> neat, you don’t have an AUMF
>> even if there were one, they were SHIPWRECKED and hors de combat

> we were actually targeting *the cocaine*
>> by your own admission IT WAS NOT HEADED TO THE UNITED STATES
So “the shipments directly threaten Americans” huh? The shipments were headed to the U.S. then?





Oh. Okay.

The Purge Movies are actually great because they actually get smarter and more thoughtful as they continue about the setting, and that evolves them beyond mere horror films.
Thinking you want civil war when you really want a safer version of the purge is unfortunately common
that's cool, man, but have you tried the taste of a refreshing matcha latte

Hugh Thompson was a solider and he served his country well, on the day he saved the lives of a dozen kids in hell.

I saw a video (wish I hadn't!) of a Hamas fighter shooting up an Israeli home.

I saw a photo of IDF troops stealing baby toys.

Same fucking sickness.

Something a lot of people don't know about is the extensive looting of Kabul by Soviet forces in the initial stages of the Soviet Invasion.
I don't think anyone thinks that robot soldiers would eliminate wrongdoing or atrocities, but I think you're underestimating the extent to which large bodies of armed men historically create a penumbra of criminality wherever they go, just as a natural byproduct, regardless of orders or control.

MattY is a fucking coward.
perils of structuring your political beliefs according to political winds and issue polls
I continue to think that Matty coming out against birthright citizenship a few months ago should have been taken as a major warning sign that the group chats have already decided to surrender on this.

I love when you press guys like that and they turn into raging enthnonationalists who think a country like Ukraine can't have more than one language/culture in it.
You said "protections for Russians". Ukrainians are not Russians. Eastern Ukrainians are mostly culturally Russian and speak the language. Western Ukraine has long discriminated against them & the separatists asked for Putin's help.

Go argue somewhere else. I don't need bad faith nonsense.

Universities will keep sexual predators on the faculty because their "hands are tied by tenure." Turns out protesting genocide is all it takes to loosen those unshakable chains.
