Maybe you think "funding" is "giving"

@KuteboiCoder
Never said give even once.

I'm glad they feel that way. Every empire that's ever invaded the lazy people of Afghanistan always underestimate the mujahideen because they are placid farmers and goatherds with primitive small arms.

Also, if Americans rise up, I bet you a dozen countries with rush to fund and arm them just like France did during the revolutionary war.

BRICS is itching to fund an American armed uprising.

@IcyGrillz feels a little low if they're including the entire world.

@Suiseiseki @Zergling_man It's bsd baby

@magicalthinking
Awesome. Didn't know these things.

A putschist is a person who participates in a putsch, which is an attempt to overthrow a government by force. The word can also be used as an adjective to describe someone or something related to a putsch.

I want to see her as the liberal foil on The Five.

It's amazing how many people don't at least recognize that the being here illegally is criminal behavior. It's the original sin. And it has persistence according to the law. Every day is a reinforcement of the intentionally of the crime. I mean, come on in, the more the merrier; however, even a tax-paying pillar of the community, as long as you're here illegal, you're committing crime. Even Jesus. Doesn't bother me. I'm open border boy, but it's not up to me.

@puniko no but the sitting down to piss is

@Zergling_man
I'm not going to do any of that stuff. It's pretty interesting though.

@IAMAL_PHARIUS
Yes, the Liberty incident.

@IAMAL_PHARIUS
Maybe it's like the Israel attack of the USA spy ship.

@SANKOFAB
Israel is dangerous. Why the fuck does anyone even fuck with them ever at all? I mean, their sweetest old lady prime minister was just as brutal...
@palestine

@gfkdsgn
I guess the Arab world can expect this:
> Nazi Germany caused millions of deaths through the Holocaust (6 million Jews, plus Roma, disabled, LGBTQ+ individuals, and others), mass executions (e.g., Babi Yar), forced starvation (Hunger Plan), and brutal occupation policies. Many died in extermination and concentration camps (e.g., Auschwitz). Millions of Soviet POWs and civilians also perished due to starvation, forced labor, and reprisals.
@SANKOFAB @israel

@gfkdsgn
But I'm American and we've committed war crimes around the world incessantly going back a couple hundred years, domestically and abroad. So I'm no better than Eichmann just based on being American. Duh.
@SANKOFAB @israel

It's so nice to hear Stephen Colbert be interviewed without all of his crazy radicalized partisan claptrap... Smart, sweet, loving, interesting... I can't watch the show anymore and I'm sure the next year will be even worse now that Trump will be president.

There's a well-known cultural trope that far more people claim to have attended Woodstock in 1969 than the actual 400,000 who were there. As a symbol of the 1960s counterculture, Woodstock's legendary status has led to a kind of "memory inflation," where many exaggerate or fabricate their connection to the event. It's often joked that if everyone who said they went had actually gone, the festival would have stretched across the entire state of New York.
