Well yeah, if you’re trapped in one of our many prisons, you get to look forward to slave labor! Slavery is perfectly legal and constitutional, as per the 13th amendment.

Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.

As an American, seconded.
I’m trapped here, don’t YOU risk being kidnapped and trapped here or sent somewhere worse just because you wanted to see the Grand Canyon.
The “I’m doing the thing you’re doing but throwing it back at you” and “thanks or whatever” definitely is.
They’re being helpful and assuming you may genuinely not know the word, and are giving you the correct version for the context.
Getting defensive isn’t necessary.
That banner SLAMMED Jeff bezoz!
I’m sure he didn’t just chuckle to himself and sleep even more soundly at night.
So far I have yet to see ANY form of ICE in uniform with proper identification visible, so as far as I am concerned these kidnap victims would have been within their constitutional right to defend themselves by any means necessary, using whatever force they can. If that means ICE start getting executed when they “forget” these things, well so be it. It’s what they deserve for dressing like that/behaving like that/insert right wing excuse for assaulting women a minorities here.
I just repeated this to a table of 6 and got nothing but blank stares.
5 of them genuinely thought we found WMDs Iraq/Afghanistan
One had no idea what I was talking about and thought the war was entirely about the world trade centers.
I am surrounded by morons.
“Tourists hit cyclist and fled the scene”
… Probably Americans.
reads the very next line
Wow, I’m soooooo surprised. Shocked, even.
Can American tourists not be shit for FIVE MINUTES???
“genocide is okay as long as it’s the right people”
-someone insane
That’s literally what it feels like: being stuck in an objective (the planet) and you have a teammate that’s SUPER gung ho about the fact he’s got a bomb vest (nukes) on that will go off if he dies, and you’re just praying he doesn’t catch a stray round (attack) while shooting at people from the doorway (doing proxy war things or just straight up committing/supporting genocide/ethnic cleansing/war of extermination/etc) or lose connection (leadership going insane).
If any of those things happen, you know you’re all toast. And it’s all mostly outside of your control.
I hate to use video games as a metaphor for literal nuclear war and sorry for spelling it out like I’m talking to a child but I felt it was needed for clarity.
We’re all on the planet together, and no one will ever be able to force everyone into submission, the more we fight the shorter time we have as a species.
nobody should have nuclear weapons.
Sometimes I wonder what the world would be like if the scientists working on the Manhattan project had all agreed it’s too much and intentionally sabotage every test.
Yeah, but this way you get to make sure your intended target actually gets hit instead of assuming the following nuclear wastwland would destroy your target like everything else.
It’s like the Martyrdom perk in fps games. You die and drop a grenade or c4 pack or something and explode, hopefully taking out the person who killed you.
It’s just a dead-man switch to get the AD part of MAD.
Effective? Maybe.
Incredibly stupid? Yes.
Is that stopping the US and Russia from doing it? Lolno we invented this dumb shit.
The world is run by insane people who would rather see the planet scorched into a lifeless rock than admit their way of doing things might be wrong.
I genuinely think he’s got that “someone told me I’m not allowed to do something so now it’s my only thought and I will do it no matter what” mentality that 6 year Olds have.
Someone told him he’s not allowed to use nuclear weapons, so he wants nothing more than to have an excuse.
Considering the channel owner is heavily left leaning, I don’t think it was them but they may be getting extra cautious about what speech they allow, given the current regime.
I made some comments on YouTube over the last week about LAPD and Israel, and all of them have been deleted without notice. Not even a warning of “hey you aren’t allowed to talk about that” or “you violated a mysterious rule sometime”
Having been in the US military, I honestly think it would be about an even split between people who agree/don’t agree but will go along with orders vs disagree/undecided but unwilling to murder civilians.
Of course it would never have been “all or nothing” but I think people would be surprised at where the split is and for what reasons people picked their side.
And I’m being completely serious here: I fully believe members of the US military would carry out a nuclear strike on US soil, as long as it was one of “the woke states”, in order to make a point of “oppose us and we will kill all of you even if we die too”
There’s a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.

It’s weird that a guntuber is where I saw this posted first… Granted he’s very clearly left if you watch some of his videos.
And he just posted a data security video the other day about how DOGE and Palantir are working together.
OK, boomer
