  • Are you kidding me, they are probably so happy to have a guy who knows zero about what they are saying. They can lie via omission and get permission for projects without fully detailing anything to the guy who doesn’t want details. He rubber stamps their hateful shit because in return he collects a fee from them for the grift. That’s trumps grift. He used to grift honest businesses but he’s moved into grifting other grifters who grift the public via policy now.






  • This never ends btw, right wing always needs an enemy or something to point a finger at. It starts with outside views and dissent, get rid of “others” and non believers. Then once it’s just your cult left, create more infighting. See north korea, you don’t love your country unless you have 20 posters of Trump! 19 is insufficient and you must be a communist! Only blonde men are soldier worthy, your family has bad genes. I know you voted red but you weren’t blonde enough.

    It’s so dumb it hurts, we’ve done this before. Just look at the current trump circle, it’s full of infighting and ladder climbing and bus tossing. It trickles down from the top, these are the people making blanket decisions that hundreds and thousands of others will enact onto millions.








  • Yeah, the problem with combative democrats is that they turn off the core democratic voters whereas that personally trait is accepted and fostered by republicans. Order and decorum is the reason blue voters vote blue, they want security and predictability and in theory could have a well oiled machine. Red voters seem to enjoy the underdog/victimhood/anti authority stance and embrace loud edgy individuals (Alex Jones, Trump, fox, etc).

    It’s deeper than surface politics, it’s a belief in “the system” as a whole either providing net benefits and some things are worth toning down or self sacrificing vs telling people not to do something (even if it’s for a net benefit for all)

    Democrats will eat our own edgy loud politicians and Republicans will elevate theirs.


  • It’s been going on too many places for too long to be more than a few things…

    It’s ours and we’re doing some sort of panic test or show of force

    It’s ours and we’re looking for something dangerous and don’t want anyone to know

    Its an enemy state and we’re either observing/gathering counter intel and don’t want to alert that state to our capabilities

    It’s an enemy state and we don’t want to have drones packed with ??? falling over homes

    It’s aliens ayyy

    There’s zero chance a military branch hasn’t had this on satellite 8k by now but nearly every situation means they will never disclose information to citizens.




  • It’s the barren concrete taking up 3/4 of the view with a hint of lawn behind more concrete. Europe was built before modern vehicles and has narrower streets with more residential in between businesses and has some cobblestone and what not. USA was built around railways and highways so everyone has a car and walking was an afterthought.

    Edit: additionally ever wonder why Europeans say how far a distance is in kilometers and Americans answer with “it’s about 25 minutes”? It’s partially that reason plus the physical distance is larger (some states are larger than countries) so miles mean less to us than knowing the time, post logistics.
