    @LuFins-Dad said in The Expanse ends with Season 6: Are they recasting Alex for season 6? On Twiter: "After a tragic reactor accident, Rocinante pilot Alex Kamal successfully undergoes face transplant surgery..."

    I wasn’t really knocking them or even speculating as to what they are. Really just pointing out that the most selfish motives would lead to the same policy prescription.

    @Moonbat said in How seriously does the Trump team really take the Dominion conspiracy theory?: @Loki said in How seriously does the Trump team really take the Dominion conspiracy theory?: The massive threat to democracy and national security is over. Boy was that a close call, I can emerge from under my desk. We should all be dancing in the streets. I heard we set back the nuclear clock. Huzzah! I don't quite understand your position Loki. Do you think that significant numbers of people believing the electoral system is rigged, isn't a threat to democracy? Looks to me that this election cycle has already done significant damage to democracy. The degree to which your population is polarised, and to which politics has been subsumed by identity is pretty frightening. I don't understand the blasé attitude in the face of such stark changes to norms surrounding political disagreements. I see of course that these issues predate this election cycle but they have surely worsened to a previously unthinkable degree. Trump was certainly a lightning rod, and revealed the asses of a lot of haters. But you don't have to blame it on him, unless you want to. As far as rigged elections, I don't need to merely believe, I know for fact that our society was made up of millions of people who would have considered breaking any rule to be righteous, as long as the goal was to get Trump out of office. At that point, you trust the security of the systems and the infrastructure around elections. Let's not be princesses about trust in electoral processes. They are broken to the extent any TDS sufferer thinks they could be broken. And they would go to their grave feeling good about it. That's just fact, I shouldn't even need to say it out loud.

    @Loki said in Biden Harris transition team website: @Doctor-Phibes said in Biden Harris transition team website: @Loki said in Biden Harris transition team website: Okay so we borrow a concept from the UN, global world order. It wasn’t plagiarism I guess after all but a nod to our new North Star. We don’t need to cawfuwe hunt whataboutists Cats there are pwenty amongst us. Hahaha Right, and "America First" is basically a translation of "Deutschland Uber Alles", so FUCKING HITLER!!!! Build back better are literally words pulled directly and recently from the UN. This is not some two degrees of Kevin Bacon game. I think in college you would get thrown out on your ass for that. I studied mathematics and physics, so I dare say you're right. Incidentally, I believe the UN concept is "global human order". Global World Order sounds more like another conspiracy theory.

    @Loki said in Senator Rand Paul: "No investigation.": @Jolly said in Senator Rand Paul: "No investigation.": What Paul is saying, is that protesters are being funded, coordinated and transported across state lines for a predetermined purpose. And what is so special about DC? We’ve seen so many protests where violence is fueled by outsiders. Rand Paul shouldn’t get special treatment, seriously. There is none. Many people gave been screaming about this for months. Pick your city, pick your riot.

    @Jolly what do you think? (BTW - I think Foeeign Affairs is a very good magazine. Read it through work. Lots of long detailed articles (and I don’t always read all of them) and I always learn a lot.
