@_benkaufman I was in Iraq when the US invaded & watched the Dinar drop to zero. A lesson I keep with me and one that pushed me into crypto back in 2011-2012. People in the west have enjoyed the fruits of a leading stable currency and donโt understand to not trust government fiat currencies
@AResurgent36577@darenadam8@BGatesIsaPyscho The Supreme Court ruled long ago the police have no affirmative obligation to protect you either. Itโs the same whether itโs the state or private firm. However the effect on our rights makes the latter more desirable.
@darenadam8@AResurgent36577@BGatesIsaPyscho The funny thing is private security would actually do better at protecting your rights as they wouldnโt be covered by qualified immunity as they are not state agents. There are many other benefits but this is most significant.
@shannonrwatts He was also old enough to get drafted and fight and die for our political elites in some nation most Americans couldnโt identify on a map. Renting a car isnโt a fundamental right, the right to bear arms is. I would love to see vehicles covered by the 2nd amendment though. lol
@carolmswain I struggled with that as well growing up as a mixed race boy. My father taught me if we spend all our time fighting racism, racists win, as the opportunity cost of doing so is everything else we dream and may accomplish.
@morganisawizard lol I served on the USS Saipan LHA-2 during Operation Iraqi Freedom. We had a plethora of female sailors get pregnant as soon as we found out we were getting deployed. Your thesis may very well be correct.
@Grummz The first Assassins Creed was very careful to get the cultures, religions, and history generally correct. They were very careful. This is what made it special. Once ubisoft abandoned the original trilogy it became a cash grab. Now itโs all just lip service and it shows.
@RuthBuscombe Ruth you have made this years subscription to F1TV worth every penny. Beautiful strategic big brain. Hope to see you there for many more years to come. Thank you.
@GuntherEagleman@CollinRugg They have always been corrupt and thwarted movements in America. This is the same thing they did to the panthers and the hippies from 1960-1970. Which eventually led to the drug war. The weaponization isnโt new, just the targeted demographic is. Google Fred Hampton.
@nicksortor@CollinRugg They double down as part of the defense against civil rights lawsuits. Happens all the time, vertical and horizontal overcharging.
@AmericanFWoman Thatโs not how it originated it started with hand me downs from older siblings in poor communities in NYC. The pants were too big for younger siblings to wear so it became common place to wear pants bigger than your waistline and thus the pants sagged.
