Tucker in Moscow
-
One thing I don’t understand is the big deal about the shopping carts. FuCa must not get out much. They are pretty much ubiquitous here in all grocery and most low end department stores. Has been that way for over 30 years.
And before anyone asks or says it is so…. No, the practice is not mandated or legislated by any level of government. It is purely a corporate retail business decision. And if I recall correctly, it was first introduced by the then US based grocery giant, Safeway, back in the early 1980s.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

He's essentially saying that he didn't ask him about repression and brutalization of all opposition, because it's all been done before. State sanctioned murder is just so boring.
He should have asked him about space aliens, because Tucker loves that shit.

FuCa starts to spin over Navalny’s death:

It’s always something.

@jon-nyc that’s nothing. I can get 100 pennies for one right here!
But this subway topic brings up a question Renauda can probably answer. Are the Russian people naturally more law abiding, or is the system simply a lot stricter? Maybe a combination of both?
I’ve always rather admired their charge of hooliganism. It may be difficult to define legally, but I know it when I see it.

That's exactly the kind of law that people like Putin find very useful.
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

Tucker lives in Maine, I believe. If semi-rural Maine is anything like down here, I've never seen chained shopping carts.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

I don't think Navalny was in for hooliganism.

Do you have Aldi? They do it. Bigg's used to but they left the US. It's actually a good system.

There's a couple around Lafayette and a couple around Covington, and that's about it.

Neither. They just have a different collective attitude towards public works, monuments and edifices that reflect cultural or national pride or solemnity. The Moscow subway is such.

Nice trait to have.
