@Astrolavey Adam Savage had a video about the space suit w/ the designers. They talk about the patch & about the need to get clearances from the nations themselves. I'm wondering if some agreements were made for both film & merch, while others were for just film.

Also, left one is fan made.

@zhangyong02 Why is it mindblowing? Unpack that, please.

@harryjsisson You need to find some grass. And I'm not talking weed. I'm talking actual grass. This life you seem to have chosen is hollow, and prompts you to say and do ridiculous things in the name of framing the narrative.

There is so much more to live than this drivel.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@vortexEire @harryjsisson OK, Ireland.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@ItsSelenaMaris @ThomasSowell Listen, South Asia...not sure if you're actually a human with intention, or a bot directed by a human with intention.

But in any event, the take you provide is simplistic, overblown, and not enlightening.

@NotSoSuperHero2 @SarahisCensored You saw five tweets? Well, Lithuania, I guess that is sufficient evidence to draw a conclusion about millions of people.

@KimIversenShow Rhetoric as a substitute for rational argumentation is a plague.

Virtually everyone agrees there are times when "papers" should be required, and times when they shouldn't. That mere fact doesn't show us people are being inconsistent.

The question is "what is the criteria?"

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@Crypto_Krill @nytimes Are police the only people authorized to use deadly force? Also, what year is it? And how's Taiwan?

Narrative framing through manipulative rhetoric is a great scourge of our time. Engagement farming is another.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@ManicMitch_JP @BryanDeanWright You're equating the epithets of "marxist," "communist," and "Hitler." These are obviously not parallel.

Clear thinking and honest discourse is more important, and more honorable, than rhetorical attempts to frame narratives.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@RMBee Rob, dude, this is not demonstrative of honorable and clear thinking.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@BraddrofliT "Slightest disobedience."

Please consider stopping with the narrative framing. The situation is more complicated than that. Even if one wants to condemn the shooting as unnecessary, hitting someone with a car, even if on accident, is not the "slightest disobedience."

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@harrisonjaime @SenMarkKelly This strikes me as a silly, rhetoric-inclined post.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@Steve_Beans @mtaibbi Ah, the "goodness y'all are so mad" rhetorical strategy.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@mtaibbi Analogies must be parallel in all relevant ways for them to function adequately.

Are there relevant differences between how our respective presidents came to / stayed in power?

If your analogy fails, that doesn't mean it's not war. Just that your argument doesn't show it.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@davidaxelrod @AOC Goodness, I despise narrative framing.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@KevinCastley The "boy I made you mad" response is so irrational, dysfunctional, and played-out.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@RichardAngwin @AOC It doesn't prove anything. That's just a silly thing to say. Stupid narrative framing garbage.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@amazingatheist Tell us more about grifting.

Also, being an amazing atheist, how can you frame having a conscience as better than having a grift? It's all just non-moral molecules in motion. No objective value to anything. A realm only of "is," not "ought."

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@jamestalarico The question, of course, is what constitutes "abusing," "bullying," and "oppressing," Biblically. That's where most of the disagreements are, and if you don't engage with those questions, you're merely sloganeering.

[Wedge W @WedgeWalkr]

@TheBrianShapiro "Elected," was not part of her claim.

Come now. Let us not strawman.

This is not the time for anyone on any political side to be attempting to score points. There's too much vileness and incivility in every group.
