Prototypes are not allowed out in the wild anymore. There was a massive shift in policy after the iPhone 4 incident.

I remember when the iPhone 4 leak happened because of that phone prototype that got left behind. Everyone felt really bad for the guy, and it was widely believed that it was completely by accident.

Because most people who watch that show do it the next day on YouTube.

So does hell

So does hell, but it’s still a bad thing

It’s not just that he called his own legitimate criminal investigations political corruption, it’s that he’s calling real political corruption legitimate.

There’s nothing “New“ about this. This is Fascism 101. Deny the accusation and then blame your accuser of the same thing.

It is definitely part of the Steve Bannon strategy of “flood the zone with shit“. Just like his threat to sue AOC into bankruptcy over her, very legal remark, calling Trump, a rapist. Because he is, and he has been adjudicated as such.

What Trump is doing is systematically disconnecting us from reality, because with no objective reference, he can dictate reality.

This is an elaborate form of gaslighting. Trump‘s goal is not to undermine the common concept of fact and reality. That’s what Hitler did, but Hitler had a plan. Trump is both demented and extremely stupid. He’s not trying to rewrite our reality, he’s just trying to reconcile his own twisted concept of reality with actual reality. Poorly. There are similarly destructive consequences, but understanding the root of the problem is crucial to remedying it.

The very fact that this story isn’t surprising is proof we’re deep into this hypernormalization.

We all realized this in 2015, before he was elected the first time. The only way to stop it is to kill him. And then, unless anyone actually does that, we are all going to suffer the consequences.

This is not a function of dementia. This is a result of a man so narcissistic and self-obsessed, that he can literally not imagine that other people exist on this planet. It’s not that he doesn’t care about other people. He doesn’t even acknowledge the possibility that others exist.

Is an extreme form of solipsism. If you don’t know what that is, you really should.

solipsism

What is it that the UK really uses these for anyway? Is the UK in any sort of military conflict or under any sort of military threat from anyone at present? I know they have to maintain certain readiness levels as members of NATO, but, still. I’m just curious as to what, other than air defense, the UK may be using these jets for.

AOC isn’t currently trying to get the FTC to approve of a multi billion dollar media conglomerate merger. Had that not been the case, CBS could have easily won against Trump. They also didn’t actually admit legal culpability. It was just a $16 million shakedown, and everyone knows it was total bullshit.

AOC doesn’t have that kind of liability. Of course, she would have more difficulty in paying lawyers fees, for a legal case that would likely drag out for years.

She’s legally in the clear because Trump is an adjudicated rapist. It’s only slander/liable if the claims are untrue.

This isn’t about winning the case, they just want to force her to spend a gigantic amount of money on a legal defense that will drag on for years and which Trump can use to smear AOC.

Predictably pathetic?

Possibly every Yo mama joke in every universe ever, all concentrated into one spot in space time

“Yo mama so fat, when her ass cheeks clap together, it creates a tear in space time!”

Eh… I tried

Unquestionably, a concentration camp. Regardless of, however, the Trump administration tries to paint it as something more honorable, it is nothing less. In fact, it may be worse.

Final Cut ftw

Perhaps, but you’re much more likely to get people to undertake modest to change than radical change.

Those cameras that cops wear? They have buttons, too.

people who think others are overreacting aren’t going to care without proof.

These people will never be satisfied, regardless of however, much proof and evidence you provide. It’s a trolling tactic known as Sealioning. Endless demands for proof while acknowledging none of them, regardless of how undeniable. It’s a delayed tactic to avoid ever having to admit that they were wrong or at fault, betting that you will eventually give up first.

This is like a factory farm where all the animals are kept in horrible conditions. You cannot make a vegan out of “they are treated bad” but you can if you show them.

You’re not gonna convince anyone with bad faith arguments based on niche morality. If you’re gonna cite the problem being that the farm is a “factory farm”, then the alternative is to, obviously, make it a humane farm. But, as a vegan, your agenda is too clearly shame people for eating meat altogether. That makes your criticism a factory farming, disingenuous, since the obvious alternative, human farming, isn’t didn’t even an option for you. Your problem isn’t with factory farming, your problem is with the fact that people eat meat in the first place. And you’re never gonna win an ideological war with an extremely dubious moral argument.

I feel you are just making excuses for weak people who can do something but choose not to.

And I think you’re being hypocritical of others, considering the context of your judgments when measured against your own actions, attempting to make/enact social change because you realize the hypocrisy and nonsensical position of your own argument.
