They are outright lying on purpose. The goal is just to produce content to pump on the web, to obfuscate the truth by drowning it in a sea of garbage and you’ll always have that cultural catastrophy that is the Web 2.0 aka Participatory Web to thank for the deep shit we are in now. We sacrificed quality of informations for, quote the Simpsons, a thousand freaks xeroxing their worthless opinions. If you want a picture of the future, imagine an official coming to warn a town about a imminent volcano eruption and being inaudible because a thousand fucks will drown his voice by shouting “VOLCANOES ARE AN INSIDE JOB” because they have “da freedum to do so” and because doing so is the latest trend on /pol/. Meanwhile the first houses get burned to a crisp

And when this does happen - and that’s “when”, not “if” - governments will start to look at ways to suppress freedom because it puts lives at risk. Maybe I’m just tinfoil hatting…

I can sympathize as to why France is upset by this but it seems Australia just got a much better deal. Nuclear subs with superior range and operational capability. And America/England will probably make sure they are compatible with their nuclear warheads as well, just in case. Biden just gave Xi a major strategic headache.
 
France doesn’t seem to be done with this yet though: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/france-says-work-with-india-promote-multilateral-order-2021-09-18/?taid=6145ff01e56df4000174d038&utm_campaign=trueAnthem:+Trending+Content&utm_medium=trueAnthem&utm_source=twitter and are so perturbed they just might collapse NATO entirely 😅

Nothing wrong with a little history to spice things up a little either. If that little movement there had not taken place all of gaming culture would be lost forever. At least 45% or so was saved…

I send my love and well wishes to the Canadian NDP Party as they run for election this Monday and hopefully destroy Mr. Blackface Trudeau’s failed-leader ass.

The irony is that, for that contract, the Australians had requested from the French that their submarines have a conventional propulsion system rather than nuclear, which caused a delay in the delivery schedule. Only after that did they realize they couldn’t wait that long to get new subs and turned to the Americans to rent their nuclear ones instead (despite the fact that Australia doesn’t even have the infrastructure in place to house and maintain nuclear subs and will now also have to either pay top dollar to build it, or more likely subcontract it from their American or British allies as well, thus beholding them further to their Anglo-Saxon overlords).
 
Also, strenghtening the French-Indian partnership to “promote multilateral order”? Yeah, kinda sounds like a blatant move to poach one of the UK’s allies from the Anglo-Saxon sphere of influence (that being said, that strategic partnership isn’t exactly new: two years ago, a researcher from the Hudson Institute was already calling France “India’s new best friend”). Time will tell how that play goes…

Uh, isn’t India’s BFF Russia? My understanding from friends on the ground there is that the Russians help them out big time with their military and nuclear stuff.

From what I read, the article from the Hudson guy mentioned how the French were in the process of supplanting the Russians as India’s main ally (perhaps those assertions ought to be taken with a grain of salt though, considering French-Indian relationships have been tumultuous in the past, what with Pakistan being one of France’s big customers in terms of weapon sales).

A quick googling tells me it’s either because Don-boy jr. spent all day yesterday mocking undercover cops at the rally yesterday, or that the Trump kids are mooching millions off of taxpayers by still getting free government chauffeuring.
 
Basically reaffirming what we already know; the Trump family don’t give a fuck about law enforcement and is broke AF.

Don Jr. is one of the most transparently pathetic people of all time. It’s so obvious that his every action is a desperate attempt at winning the approval of a dad who is incapable of ever loving him. Every second his embarrassing face is on camera, it could not be any more obvious that he’s holding back tears and desperately wants to cry about what a failure he is. I’d feel sad for him if he weren’t such an awful human being. And it is sad to remember that he could’ve grown up to be a decent person if he were in a somewhat decent household, rather than being raised by notorious sociopathic narcissist Donald Trump.
 
When Don Jr. was just a kid, Trump Sr. had an affair and it made national news. For the rest of his life, Trump Sr. was both emotionally and physically abusive. There was apparently hardly ever a time that him and his son were in the same room where Trump didn’t loudly proclaim his son to be a loser to everyone else in the room. He would also push him to the ground in front of his friends and shit like that.
 
Don Jr. needs serious therapy, but his own life problems do not excuse him for being a racist, lying, hateful bigot that spreads deadly COVID misinformation on a daily basis.

In Vino Veritas
Here’s how a conservative think tank framed a proposal by McAuliffe to grant collective bargaining power to state employees.
 
“This often leads to increased wages and benefits for workers and subsequently increased costs for taxpayers.”
 
They manage to make wage increases and benefits sound bad because, gods forbid, we have to pay a couple extra cents on the dollar.
 
Nevermind the fact that McAuliffe is proposing a minimum wage increase, enhanced worker benefits, paid time off, and expanding Medicaid and Medicare.
 
So you’ll be making more, with better benefits, and guaranteed sick leave. They don’t both counting that in their equation when they are talking about an “increased tax burden”.

Ok, what the fucking hell is going on in Australia right now?
There’s images and videos of civil unrest up the ass on Social Media right now.
Any Aussie Bronies here?
 
People mad at lockdowns and anti-COVID measures. Think our earlier versions of the same protests that rolled across state capitals last years but a little more tropo.
