Heh, glad you see it that way. I've had the three musketeers pretty much put me on ignore. @Jack V Savage will still reply sometimes, good on him.

Rarely. I don't think your obvious trolling is fun or cute or whatever.

A difference of opinion does not make me a troll.

Looks like one of those repulsive '60s homemaker recipes.

Like jelly bologna or moulded spaghetti and sausage.

Spoiler

Did people actually eat that back then? Something tells me we're being trolled

This is correct but irrelevant to my comment.

Overeem penetrated so beautifully, the sounds of the striated flesh splaying upon each impact, as it enters deep inside Mr. Pavlovich.... Delicious.. consumed...

You can have your opinion about me,that's fair, but it's not a fact.

"Let the markets decide what speech should be allowed!"

"Okay, the market decided that white nationalism sucks."

"The market has to be stopped! The government should control YouTube and Facebook!"

So been listening to Chris Hedges audiobook America The Farewell Tour while gymming it.

He seems to go a little over the top to me but still a damn interesting listen. He comes across as a Marxist conservative lol. Giving it a 7.5 out of 10 so far.

I have always liked Chris Hedges even though his alarmist hyperbole and MLK jr. wannabe schtick is way over the top at times. There is a chapter Hedges wrote in his book Empire of Illusion that criticizes the WWE. It is one of the most unintentionally hilarious things I have ever read. Hedges overly-serious tone combined with his description of wrestling's bizarre antics made for an entertaining chapter in a way Hedges never intended.

Here is an excerpt from a recent discussion Hedges did with Hamza Yusuf:

Great clip. Thanks very much for sharing.

yeah for real. Watching YouTubers actually ponder whether or not Facebook, Twitter and YouTube should be public utilities so Alex Jones et al can fuck about is absolutely hypocritical and stupid.

 

[Anung Un Rama]

The argument for making facebook, etc public utilities didn't start with the banning of Alex Jones.

no, they were exacerbated by it.

Its seems like it was coming from the left before and now its coming from the right and the opposition has predictably shifted along with it.

well, it is a left idea, par for the course for them, a normal right wing attitude would be to privatise that space. The right wingers that want those services to be public utilities are waiving a white flag.

But now, because the right support it, regardless of the reason, its a stupid idea because by keeping it private the left is able to censor voices they disagree with. Point being neither side has a monopoly on hypocrisy.

it was stupid then and it's stupid now.

and, any party/ideology can be hypocritical, such is human nature. If one thinks for oneself objectively and critically, rather than as a group, less chance of that happening.
