It's all part of their half-assed brainworm infested plan to make words meaningless.

They got associated with actual domestic terrorism, so they start trying to make the word lose its power.

If you repeat that your opponents are domestic terrorists for minor things, when more of their Good Ol Boy brand pops up, people can dismiss it easier.

Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I'm just mildly irritated.

Good for pc players though, it's something!

And as former enlisted, I stand by my belief that ANY MILITARY PERSONNEL who obey treasonous orders ARE GUILTY OF TREASON and should be tried accordingly.

You have a DUTY to disobey unlawful or immoral orders, and report those who issue them.

Unfortunately, in practice today that means "intimidate and maybe shoot some Americans on American soil or spend the rest of your life in a military prison"

But would you rather be able to say "I shot 15 men women and children defending the president from embarrassment" or "neonazis put me in prison because I wouldn't be a neonazi with them"?

Ah, no true Scotsman.

Having grown up with religion and also having studied history, I am decidedly not fine with most major religions. They're a tool for control, regardless of what little hope it might give some people who should probably go to therapy instead of church.

Well... Neck. Close enough?

It has been for a long time, it's just still twitching.

I'm learning a bit of sign language since my wife will likely be fully deaf inside 10 years, and one day we were in a food court and I saw two people arguing in ASL.

One of them started getting larger and more abrupt with their movements and the other interrupted to sign "Don't yell at me."

I wasn't paying enough attention to know what they were arguing about, but it made me giggle a bit at the phrasing.

I used to work in a warehouse that made a HUGE deal about the employees using the proper recycling bin so the company can get a nice check from somewhere or other for "going green"

This warehouse recieved thousands of pallets every day.

Each pallet is wrapped with hundreds of square feet of plastic wrap.

Each box is individually wrapped with maybe 10ftsq-50 depending on size.

Each box contains goods in plastic bags. Many of them with plastic clamshell packaging.

The products get unwrapped, and placed in larger boxes on shelves.

When the items get distributed to stores, the items were put in plastic bags, boxed up and wrapped in plastic wrap, boxes placed on pallets that were automatically wrapped by machines in hundreds of square feet of plastic.

None of the plastic from the warehouse floor is separated from the general waste.

Remember, it's your responsibility to reduce waste.

Ooh, sweet! A middle eastern country that Americans can name is making improvements!

Military Industrial Complex: absolutely fucking not

It's crazy how quickly things can improve when global superpowers aren't fucking carpet bombing them.

It's "Jesus take the WHEEL" not "Jesus take the YOKE"

I think of the shareholders, board, c-suites, and all of their friends every time I gaze upon my Guillotine.
