    It seems like so much preening. There’s so much civilians don’t know. NORAD could have taken it out and chose not to. Seems weird to second guess their decision with .01% of the information they had. It appears as though they took it as an opportunity for intelligence collection.

    Nobody really cares about equity. This is all about real estate scams. Bring some people to a nice neighborhood seeking equity. All the existing residents leave, prices fall through the floor. Buy low. Evict the poor people. Sell high. I have seen this done in Boston a few times now, the process can take up to 20-30 years for each cycle. No justice, no peace.

    @Axtremus said in Twitter File #420 - House Oversight Edition: @George-K said in Twitter File #420 - House Oversight Edition: Trump tried to get mean tweets taken down. FBI tried to get potential evidence of criminality taken down. That about right? Only half right. The Trump administration did ask Twitter to take down some tweets (side note: Matt Taibi missed that completely). https://twitter.com/mtaibbi/status/1623390167406112770

    @LuFins-Dad said in Progressive Response to Biden’s SOTU: Out of curiosity, did any forum member other than Ax actually click the link to watch? I bet Ax didn’t watch beyond the first few seconds. Actually I watched it. It was a nothing burger. Not specific enough to be overtly crazy. Just stuff like “health care is good” or “affordable meals are important”. Also “Trump is bad and divisive”.

    Yeah, Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 23% audience score. That's kind of crappy. IMDB - 3.7/10. Yeah, it looks like I'm not going to waste my time on this one.

    @Renauda said in Objective by whose standard?: @Doctor-Phibes said in Objective by whose standard?: @Horace said in Objective by whose standard?: @Doctor-Phibes said in Objective by whose standard?: @Horace said in Objective by whose standard?: @Doctor-Phibes said in Objective by whose standard?: People who talk about existential risks all the time are an existential risk. The word appeared in Biden’s SOTU last night. Go ahead and try to find a Democrat speech in which it did not appear during the midterms. I don't take much notice of Democrat speeches, TBH. 'Existential threat' is kind of their version of 'Socialist'. "I don't pay attention to the thing you're trying to make a point about" is not much of a rebuttal. I didn't realise I was trying to frame a rebuttal. You weren’t. At least I didn’t think so. I understood as it was written. That may be a problem for folks who obsess over buzz words and pop kulture phrases. His rejoinder, which was definitely not a rebuttal, was simply over my head. Please don't attempt to explain it to me. I will be lost in the complex subtleties.

    I have this crazy idea that maybe they didn't have to correct for that shift all at once in 10 feet of track. Or maybe the track didn't break during the earthquake.
