Yeah IIRC it was essentially a way for the early government to cheap out on arming an entire army. They allowed private stockpiles of guns so that a few rich dudes could arm their neighbors if need be.

Vincent Fusca, a big Qanon celebrity, was standing just behind Trump during the shooting. If you watch the video he’s just to the left of the “You’re Fired!” sign and doesn’t react at all to the shots. A lot of Q people think he’s actually JFK Jr in disguise.

Yeah it was pretty fucked up, what.cd had some some of the strictest content rules of any tracker. Just to get on you had to do an interview with an admin with questions ranging from “what kind of music do you listen to?” to “What is your primary mode of transportation?” I think it only had ~300,000 users, you had to maintain a ratio so that every member contributed to the site. Some big artists like Trent Reznor were members and would actually put their own albums up because they knew what users were super vocal about spreading stuff that they like.

Idk if the Americans could force the French government to cooperate and get them to seize the servers

What.cd was a music/book/software torrent site that rose from the ashes of oink’s pink place. The french government indeed seized the the servers at the request of the American Government.

He said Wifi makes your brain bleed. Also that cell phones cause cancer and that’s why he doesn’t carry his in his pocket, right before pulling his phone out of his pocket.

I saw their set at Burning man.

Cars under 25 years old are illegal to import in the US, there are exceptions for using Kei trucks on private property. I’m pretty sure they’re totally legal if they’re over 25. A place near me in Washington State is a major importer of them.

Michigan has a very large Muslim community, there are about 3 times more people practicing Islam than Judaism there. I think at one point Dearborn had the largest Muslim population in the country. She probably doesn’t want to go to far in either direction.

Astroturfing or advertising. They can generate a bunch of medium to high karma accounts with genuine looking post history, then sign a deal with an advertising firm or lobby group to make posts on their behalf. They’ll steal a bunch of posts like OP’s then start posting stuff like “Biden is actually the most progressive president” and fill the comment section with some propaganda. This site sells a range of services.

My lib buddy was saying he doesn’t give a shit about the entertainment strikes because they don’t really work hard or create anything necessary to live, but he supports the autoworkers because they actually make things that people use everyday. I had to point out that he doesn’t own a car and watches hours of TV everyday, so in reality the writers/actors provide much more to his life than the autoworkers do.
