Police killings are already statistically very rare. Much more so than other types, which are already pretty rare.

Not to mention that the definition here of red vs blue is being held static, despite it actually changing (potentially) every 4 years.

On top of that, I don’t think most people realize how that level of dehumanization affects the conversation as a whole. We are not replying to people, we are replying to walls of text, abstract concepts, hypotheses, and we treat one another as such. It’s why anonymous internet discussions so quickly devolve.

Mirab, with bras unfurled.

I have no clue. Nor do I think it matters. I’m judging it purely on the fact that they integrated a token into the project that serves only to enrich the owners, but operates under the guise of an investment. It’s dishonest and scammy.

There’s a first time for everything bo.

The second link is literally to their own web page.

Regardless of whether its part of the “protocol”, it’s part of the project.

You don’t need a new token to do any of that. You could do it with one of the thousands of existing ones.

You do, however, need a new token if you want to rug pull a bunch of random clueless “investors”.

If I’m a betting man, this entire project is 95% scam and 5% project, and that’s me being generous.

Sounds more like a crypto scam…

That image isn’t saying that they aren’t hard right. It’s saying the standard spectrum of left right doesn’t account for how practically similar the two extremes actually are in how they operate.

Bear in mind that we are actually talking about extremes at those ends of the shoe. Genocidal dictators. Trump is not Hitler or Stalin. He’s not that far around the horseshoe, yet.

Cave men said the same thing about the horse. They gutted our communal caves and made human scale subordinate to a domesticated animal. #fuckmounts

Fucking Nazarenes. Nothing changes.

My father, for all his flaws, instilled a phrase in my brain that i am eternally thankful for… Other people don’t control your feelings.

Oh the humanity.

Elon in the government, and elon that runs tesla are two unrelated things.

Elon has been publicly shitty for years. The widespread arson didn’t start until he was in the government. You’re disproving your own position. It’s clear that his role in the government was a trigger.

And sweet jesus dude… tesla is not a private company. It’s public. How are you not aware of that. Elon just happens to own 90 billion dollars worth of it. His stake is essentially private property. Maybe that’s what you were hinting at, but the distinction is important for other reasons.

Terrorism is simply violence to achieve political aims. It doesn’t matter whether the entities are public or private. If someone bombed a house full of a politicians family members to make a political point, that would obviously be terrorism, regardless of the fact that only private property and non government employees were harmed, because the goal of the act was clearly political.

sigh

Musk is a government employee and spends much of his time with the most powerful political figure in this hemisphere.

Attacking him and his property is an inherently political act.

If I have to explain that to you then we’ve got bigger problems than I thought.

The violence wasn’t simply for political reasons, as you suggest. It is to accomplish political goals by causing fear and terror in people associated with that brand. That seems like terrorism to me.

Damn, pen so out of shape that he’s sweating.

The definition doesn’t set a limit on the number of people injured by an individual act.

Setting a bunch of lithium batters on fire is absolutely dangerous to people nearby. The fact that none have been killed yet is simply a sample size problem.

Arson is inherently a violent and lethal act. And honestly I’m very doubtful about your assertion that power loss is somehow more lethal than a fire. Almost 4k people died from fires in 2022. I can’t find the corresponding stat for power loss, so feel free to do some research.
