Gotcha. Cheers!

Hahaha, ok I won’t.

And it was really the second paragraph I wanted to post. You’re right, the first part could be fiction, but it feels quite real right now, which is why I liked it as well. But the second part is undeniable. Challenge them anywhere and everywhere; on everything, on all their lies. Turn their world upsidedown, tear asunder their illusions, send the sanctuary of their ignorance crashing down around them.

Anyway, hard agree, no post to BestOf, best bullying wishes to you, may your references quickly spring to mind during your future arguments.

Sweet Jesus, Everett. Can I post this to c/BestOfLemmy?

This is true. As have I.

The link worked (on Jerboa) for me, mate. Not sure why they caught hell here. Maybe folk didn’t bother to actually click through? Idk.

I bet if one makes a post specifically for Valente’s piece it will climb fast. I figured most of lemmy had already seen it, then it quickly got upvoted and commented. -shrugs-

edit: Wow, was I wrong or what?

If it didn’t hurt, he wouldn’t cry.

I’m curious if insurance pays out more than trying to sell it. Are there those who would be happy to take the insurance money, and buy something non-American with it?

Here’s a trimmed clip of the scene from The Founder.

Personally, I like to say science requires no belief, but merely accepting the evidence

Oh good, I’m not the only one. Cheers, Chuck!

Narcos Mexico.
I liked it.

Another source close to Trump describes to Rolling Stone what they call a “soft invasion” of Mexico, in which American special forces — not a large theater deployment — would be sent covertly to assassinate cartel leaders.

Oh yeah, that went so well previously, why not try again?

o7 Thank you!

Rats! Anybody got a pdf?

A meme (/miːm/ ⓘ; MEEM) is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme. A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices, that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme. Supporters of the concept regard memes as cultural analogues to genes in that they self-replicate, mutate, and respond to selective pressures. In popular language, a meme may refer to an Internet meme, typically an image, that is remixed, copied, and circulated in a shared cultural experience online.
