@TheItzal @KirscheVerstahl Yep. Roughly 44,000 Americans die every year from guns, with roughly 60% being suicides, and 40% being homicides, accidents, and police related. In Europe, a minimum of 45,000 die heat related deaths, with as many as 60,000 in 2022, and that's with the numbers being screwed with.

@SydneyLWatson And sadly, in another 15 years, people will probably forget. Westerners have short memories and short attention spans, while non-westerners are still complaining about wars from a thousand years ago.

@Nerdrotics No, Black Snape is too funny. Just have a different non-white actor play him every season and say he's testing out polyjuice potions, but make no other references to it.

@heelvsbabyface Funny, Supergirl 1984 is universally derided by fans and critics alike, but pretty much everybody universally loves Helen Slater. If Milly Alcock had just kept her mouth shut, she'd probably be thought of similarly. A fine actress to play Supergirl in a REALLY bad movie.

“Under God” was added to the Pledge of Allegiance in 1954, not invented in 1954.

The exact wording was actually inspired by Lincoln:

“that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom” - Lincoln, Gettysburg Address

The concept dates back to 1776:

“the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God” - Declaration of Independence

The constitution itself is even dated:

“in the Year of our Lord 1787”

If you’re going to play the history card at least google it first. Im all for freedom of religion, but pretending the USA was founded by a bunch of atheists and agnostics is just silly.

@KirscheVerstahl Not enough of the "moderate" Democrats or 2016 Bernie bros understand that they're viewed as useful idiots by the politicians they support. It's just like the socialists before the communists took over in Russia, or Nazis in Germany. Liberalism ALWAYS leads to Marxism.

@pureMetatron "Death to. [blank]" is considered a threat here in The US, and it should be treated as such. If you say "Death to America" as a non-American, I hear the weather in Somalia is great this time of year.

@IfindRetards Keir Starmer, and everybody that votes/voted for Labor in The UK.

@Tectone The Gospel of John can be read in about two hours, and it'd be a great weekly reader or something the teacher puts on after class. There are some excellent audio books, including James Earl Jones. Teach every child The 10 Commandments and about Jesus.

[IamMenace @IamMenaceVO]

@KirscheVerstahl JFK was the last moderate Democrat, and they killed him 60 years ago. LBJ, Carter, Clinton, Obama, and Biden were not moderates. Now the 2016 Burnie bros are considered "moderates" and flooding the Republican party, watering down our politics, being good little "useful idiots".

[IamMenace @IamMenaceVO]

@RazorFist You'd be surprised how many incredible Christian teachers there are in public school, who'll do an excellent job defending the faith and representing the very best of Christianity. There will be bad actors, but there already were, but now Christians can finally fight back.

One thing you need to understand about senior generals is that many of them are effectively socialist.

Think about it. They don’t have the market discipline to require them to be productive. What they produce is pleasing their senior officers, therefore, rising in rank. There’s no bottom line because they have an endless supply of money. Do you think any corporation would keep CEOs who didn’t win a war for 30 years? But look at the Pentagon. Look at the generals who are complaining. That’s them.

Now, reserve generals are a little different because they actually have to operate in the real world as civilians. I had generals who were corporate CEOs. And they were awesome. Still, if you are a senior general, you have spent 30 years in a government command environment. When you don’t like something, you give a command to change it. That’s how they think problems get solved. They don’t understand capitalism or entrepreneurialism – it’s against everything they’ve ever worked for. They want a rigid hierarchy with themselves at the top, making all the decisions. That’s why they’re inevitably for Democrats and such policies as gun control.

They also protect the club. And that means rejecting any kind of accountability. You can do that when you’re in a rigid hierarchy. Why do you think no one ever got fired for the Kabul disaster? And why do you think they are so very upset that Pete Hegseth is picking his generals under his own criteria and not theirs?

You have no idea how it grates upon them that a major is their boss. The last thing they’ll do is look in the mirror and ask why. That’s because they never had to look in the mirror to ask why before now.

Some of them can actually fight – certainly not all of them, as the disasters of the last 30 years have shown – but on any other subject, their views are not only wrong, but actively wrong. They have a child’s view of politics and civilian life. They want to govern by tantrum. But here’s their problem – we civilians are not in their chain of command.

@Tectone The Bible is the most important piece of literature in the English language. So many words and phrases come from the Bible, let alone the shared culture, the laws, and the morality. Western culture is Christian culture, and so much of what we consider "common sense" is Biblical.

[IamMenace @IamMenaceVO]

@MelonieMac Good for her. I never realized just how many women are into tarot, astrology, palm readings, and that sort of thing. D&D, TCGs, LotR, and Warhammer are more fun.

[IamMenace @IamMenaceVO]

@SydneyLWatson If the Scottish can learn how to speak English in a matter of weeks despite being Scottish and drunk, nobody has any excuse. Britain, we'll trade you all of our illegals for your Scots. It's a good trade. Think of how diverse your food will be.

[IamMenace @IamMenaceVO]

@Tectone Anytime something becomes "free", the price goes up dramatically. Also, states with a high gas taxes also sees MUCH higher cost of living compared to states without it. Snack foods have come down a LOT since SNAP benefits were restricted earlier this year.

@RazorFist They also call Israel "Palestine".

[IamMenace @IamMenaceVO]

@AngryCops Very cool. I had to look it up, but although they look VERY similar, they have a different publisher than the 1994 editions of "Lord of the Rings". Might have to pick them up anyway because of all the good things I hear, and because they'd look good next to LotR.
