@tyler @Owl I'm afraid to ask, but how big is your Johnny folder?
I still cannot believe the man is real

@Goalkeeper @ForbiddenDreamer @HarryNuggets @graf People are going to try to make insightful and meaningful posts to get lucky but the winner is going to be something about licking the backs of girls' knees or something
@nugger @Turkleton The only situation I can see this realistically becoming a thing would be some sort of mass political arrests of Whites, like the J6 people. You get a good amount of "normal" people into contact with the structure, and maybe enough of them are sane and sturdy enough to withstand the temptation to sink to their moral level. In that edge case though, funding in would likely be heavily curtailed, so you can only get bodies in, and in a political situation, they're likely not getting out.
@sickburnbro I hope the clerics keep getting their shit pushed in by two random podcasters just talking about the Bible. Incredible how that seems to rankle them.
@sickburnbro Woe is about the only reason I wish I had a twitter account.
@Bad_Banner With as dedicated to hating browns, women, and brown women fedipeople are, you would think they would be jumping at the chance to spite vote against her and deal her supporters untold psychic damage
@sickburnbro Paying them to leave (then making sure they know it would be very unpleasant for them if they come back) would pay for itself in no time.
I don't have the net financial impact by race graph, but paying blacks and mexicans et al even 50k per to leave would be recovered in less than 10 years (iirc)
@professionalbigot69 @sickburnbro The national debt is already a comically large and unpayable number, what's a few trillion more to ensure that things will improve?
@Bad_Banner Guam gets a vote?
@Giga_Vril_Breaker @pepsi_man @KarlDahl @sickburnbro The simple answer is it should be "There have been."
The complicated answer is digging deep back to English class, so bear with me.
We can break the sentence down thusly:
"{There} [have been] <a lot> (of rumors) (about the Helene response)"
The basic sentence is "{There} [have been] <a lot>". Both "of rumors" and "about the Helene response" are prepositional phrases. They add detail or clarify what specifically you're talking about in the sentence, but they do not factor into the core sentence.
The subject of the sentence is {There}, but it's a pronoun/dummy subject (apparently what it's called) that substitutes for the actual subject <a lot.> Because <a lot> is plural, the verb takes the plural form of [have been].
Again, this is pulling from English class many years ago (and a little googlefu today) for the explanation but tl;dr it should be "There have been."

@sickburnbro I've seen numbers about half that, but I'm getting 3rd and 4th hand info.
@SuperLutheran Otto getting a head start on his army.
@sickburnbro @sj_zero @EssentialUtinsil @EvilSandmich Is that counting US Steel that's being purchased by Japan? I guess so long as the equipment and expertise remain here, it can be seized and repurposed in an emergency.
@caekislove @sickburnbro The damage to DIE/DEI as a concept is already done. It was far harder to convince people that DEI is bad than it will be to point at whatever replaces it and say "Hey, this is just like DIE, they just changed the name!"
It'll fool some people (or "people," if you can't follow a simple name swap you have a dubious claim on being a sapient person), but most of the DEI-aware will transfer the same feelings over to the new concept once made aware of it.
@BitterPill @Lavaearth The framing does make it seem a bit like performance art or staged, but it's a good message either way.
@WashedOutGundamPilot Someone posted that instead of going to college on free rides and revolutionizing industries (as the smart silents and boomers did), our geniuses are playing Factorio after a night shift at Wal-Mart. I ponder that occasionally, and what a tremendous waste it is.
@justnormalkorean @bronze Sure, a gas car can brick itself... if you physically run over a brick, maybe.
@Shadowman311 Eventually they're going to run out of euphemisms for them. Every time they use a new one, they burn that word forever as we make sure everyone knows who they refer to.
@BowsacNoodle @scalar @Tadano @vic I'm sure such things exist somewhere out there, but the issue is that even if it does, a person looking into the yawning maw has no idea what to even begin with. The bright folks with the knowledge of deeper things take their understanding of the foundational matters for granted, while the initiate bounces off trying to understand something that the wise would call "simple" because they lack the foundation. (A general statement, no specific target intended)
Here to learn the art of the shitpost. I mostly lurk and quip.Could be convinced to run a fedifriend RPG group (may just do it myself)I realize no one cares to read this. i liek mudkipz, but not like that.
