[00:06]	TR Bot	 Sweden verges on NATO membership after Turkey vote, Hungary signal
[00:06]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Orbanistan says it now supports Sweden's membership in NATO.
[00:06]	DaemonFC	It's pretty unbelievable the way NATO's accession process is set up.
[00:07]	MinceR	dumbasses wanted to ratify it just before the goatfucker did, and they failed to do so
[00:07]	MinceR	it's pretty unbelievable that orbanistan has yet to be thrown out of NATO
[00:07]	DaemonFC	That Hungary gets as much of a say as the United States, which is over 3/4ths of NATO by military spending and troop strength and defense industry.
[00:07]	MinceR	while openly serving the empire it was set up to oppose
[00:08]	DaemonFC	NATO is basically 76% the United States and 24% other, and it's a giant bailout of countries that don't spend nearly enough on their own defense, much less anything to do with a potential collective defense action.
[00:09]	DaemonFC	Other NATO members are usually not even spending 2% of the GDP on their military, which is the minimum legal amount to be a NATO member.
[00:09]	DaemonFC	Before Trump threatened to remove the US from NATO, Germany was spending only 1.4%.
[00:09]	DaemonFC	And Germany is considered one of the more formidable powers in Europe, militarily.
[00:10]	DaemonFC	The US basically being obligated to respect Article V has acted as a subsidy for generous social programs that Europe has spent on its own population.
[00:10]	DaemonFC	This should end.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	The apologists have countered that NATO promotes stable democracies in Europe and that nobody wants the Nazis back, but the Nazis are back.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	The AfD puts out propaganda that is carbon copied from Hitler.
[00:11]	DaemonFC	The laws that theoretically ban Nazi Parties are not being enforced and I think the AfD has in some areas, like a quarter of the seats in state governments.
[00:12]	DaemonFC	Quite a few in the national government.
[00:12]	DaemonFC	Control over some locals.
[00:12]	DaemonFC	So it's not "fringe" at this point.
[00:12]	DaemonFC	A quarter of the seats is pretty big in a political system that has like half a dozen parties in a legislature sometimes.
[00:13]	DaemonFC	It's hilarious in a way that the AfD (Nazi) Party support is huge in economically depressed areas of the former GDR.
[00:13]	DaemonFC	People who were born into Communism are now Nazis.
[00:13]	MinceR	nazism is a form of fascism, which is a form of socialism
[00:13]	DaemonFC	The GDR wouldn't have tolerated this.
[00:13]	MinceR	it's not that surprising
[00:13]	DaemonFC	They would have suppressed Nazism.
[00:14]	DaemonFC	MinceR: The Nazis started out with a Socialist wing.
[00:14]	DaemonFC	But as time moved on, that wing disappeared.
[00:15]	DaemonFC	The same election that brought the Nazis to enough power to grant Hitler dictator status also had quite a few Communists and Socialists elected to the legislature as well.
[00:15]	DaemonFC	None of them were seated. They were arrested, or wanted, so they knew better than to show up demanding their seat.
[00:15]	MinceR	mussolini used to be a member of the italian socialist party
[00:16]	DaemonFC	With 100% Nazis in attendance, they were able to ignore that they didn't have a quorum and gave Hitler his "emergency powers".
[00:16]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Technically, the German Constitution was never suspended.
[00:16]	MinceR	giovanni gentile, his comrade, literally described fascism as a form of socialism
[00:17]	DaemonFC	Technically, the law that gave Hitler his authority was not even legal because the Reichstag and Reichsrat did not have a quorum.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	Whether or not it was constitutional, it wasn't legal for them to take up a bill without having a quorum.
[00:17]	DaemonFC	:)
[00:18]	DaemonFC	And who was going to stop them by this point?
[00:18]	DaemonFC	MinceR: The Nazi Parliamentarians? Perhaps?
[00:18]	DaemonFC	The Nazi judges?
[00:19]	DaemonFC	The Nazis in there voting 100%?
[00:19]	DaemonFC	The Nazi police officers?
[00:19]	DaemonFC	The same thing is happening to the US Supreme Court.
[00:19]	DaemonFC	And that's why if Trump comes back, we're finished.
[00:20]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Here's how the US Senate could become a rubber stamp for Trump, able to pass any legislation.
[00:20]	DaemonFC	Trump comes back, Republicans take the Senate.
[00:20]	DaemonFC	Republicans appoint a Parliamentarian who isn't even close to neutral, not even close.
[00:20]	DaemonFC	The Republicans pass a "budget bill" that changes all sorts of federal law that's not related to the budget.
[00:21]	DaemonFC	The Democrats object, of course, by raising a Budget Point of Order.
[00:21]	DaemonFC	The Parliamentarian, who is a flunky, says he or she researched the matter and will allow it.
[00:21]	DaemonFC	The Senate passes the bill 51-49 (at a minimum), the House passes it, Trump signs it.
[00:22]	DaemonFC	People ask the courts to enforce the Byrd Act.
[00:22]	DaemonFC	The question gets to the Supreme Court.
[00:22]	DaemonFC	6-3, the court refuses to hear the case and says it's a "political question".
[00:23]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Technically, the Republicans would have to say that the law they're changing "affects the budget" in some way.
[00:23]	DaemonFC	But it's up to the Parliamentarian to decide if it is "primarily a budget question".
[00:23]	DaemonFC	And of course it is, and then SCOTUS stays out of it.
[00:24]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Under the Chevron precedent, where agencies interpret their own rules, this situation gets more dangerous.
[00:24]	DaemonFC	Congress can pass all sorts of vague laws giving Trump enormous power, pending his people at the federal agencies filling in all the blanks.
[00:25]	DaemonFC	And this is after he reimposes Schedule F and purges the Civil Service and installs Political appointees to replace several hundred thousand bureaucrats.
[00:25]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Within 4-6 months, the legal framework is in place for Trump to have unlimited power.
[00:26]	DaemonFC	Biden can confirm as many judges as he wants. Unless we get very very lucky and Clarence Thomas dies or something in the next 8-9 months, we're screwed.
[00:27]	DaemonFC	Because SCOTUS has original jurisdiction on most of this, and the last word on anything.

[00:28]	DaemonFC	Democrats contended it infringes on transgender rights. This legislation is the exact opposite of the American Dream, state Sen. Kent Smith (D) said. Instead of providing comfort it will inflict great pain.
[00:28]	DaemonFC	----
[00:28]	DaemonFC	The American Dream is no jobs, 11% annual inflation, and having your dick amputated. -The Democrats
[00:29]	DaemonFC	No job, no money, not even being able to properly play with yourself anymore.
[00:29]	DaemonFC	That's cruel.
[00:30]	DaemonFC	MinceR: Want to see a magic trick? I'm going to make all my critics, disappear! *tucks dick in and puts on lipstick*
[00:30]	DaemonFC	TADA!
[00:30]	DaemonFC	Don't deadname me!
[00:32]	MinceR	apparently the trick isn't working
[00:32]	MinceR	also, finkle is einhorn
[00:32]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I like those banks that will just put any name you want on a debit card.
[00:33]	DaemonFC	So let me get this straight. You're willing to risk being arrested for the crime of "being in possession of someone else's credit card" because you have a card that has a name on it that is not your name?
[00:33]	DaemonFC	:)
[00:33]	DaemonFC	You know.
[00:33]	DaemonFC	Police tend to arrest first and ask questions later.
[00:34]	DaemonFC	How many of them are going to go through a tranny's purse and find a card in some other name and not arrest based on this?

[00:44]	DaemonFC	Ivermectin is a human drug too.
[00:44]	DaemonFC	I've taken it before. It's a great way to kill scabies after your step-family gives them to you because you were at their house on Thanksgiving one year.
[00:45]	DaemonFC	They prefer to use Permethrin though.
[00:45]	DaemonFC	At first, I got a doctor who prescribed Lindane.
[00:45]	DaemonFC	And I had to go to every pharmacy in town before one CVS happened to have it.
[00:46]	DaemonFC	The government was pressuring them to quit using Lindane because it's toxic and contaminates hundreds of gallons of water as you wash it off of you.
[00:46]	DaemonFC	I didn't really care at the time.
[00:46]	DaemonFC	I would have poured gasoline on myself if they told me it killed those things.
[00:47]	DaemonFC	Ivermectin in human dose wouldn't cause any harm to a COVID patient.
[00:48]	DaemonFC	It just probably wouldn't help them.
[00:50]	DaemonFC	Ivermectin probably is just as effective as COVID shots, and safer.
[00:50]	DaemonFC	Because the COVID shots can only hurt you. They don't protect you from anything.

[01:00]	DaemonFC	Ugh that sounds like a terrible episode of Max Headroom.
[01:01]	DaemonFC	https://www.jwz.org/blog/2022/12/youre-too-compassionate-were-at-war-with-the-homeless/
[01:01]	TR Bot	 jwz: "You're too compassionate. We're at war with the homeless."
[01:01]	DaemonFC	> Former San Francisco employees, including a director who worked with the homeless, allege that the city routinely cleared encampments while knowing there were not enough shelter beds available, according to new testimony filed in court Friday. [...]
[01:01]	DaemonFC	> In Friday's filings, Marshall said they were explicitly directed by the former head of the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, Jeff Kositsky, to forcibly move unhoused people and destroy their property without taking the time to inquire about their needs.
[01:01]	DaemonFC	> The city cleared encampments in response to "daily mandates" by Mayor London Breed, Marshall stated: "Mayor Breed ordered us to carry out sweeps because she did not want to be seen near unhoused people while she was at lunch, at the gym, at fundraisers, or at meetings on public business." [...]
[01:01]	DaemonFC	> Marshall also suggested the method the department used to track shelter refusal was misleading. The Homelessness and Outreach Team would warn unhoused folks that the police were coming without taking steps to offer shelter, Marshall alleged. Despite the lack of offers, they wrote, the city recorded those individuals as having "refused" shelter, which Marshall called an "inaccurate and blatant attempt to work around the City's stated requirements for 
[01:02]	DaemonFC	enforcement." [...]
[01:02]	DaemonFC	> When Public Works removes an encampment, staff are supposed to collect and log unhoused residents' belongings to be retrieved later [but they] often threw away residents' items altogether, due to a lack of time to sort out trash from belongings. "I have seen DPW workers throw away entire tents," Malone stated.
[01:02]	DaemonFC	----
[01:02]	DaemonFC	schestowitz[TR]: Democrats love poor people. Blacks too.
[01:04]	DaemonFC	The only thing I've laughed at recently was the police in New York City throwing 100+ mopeds belonging to illegal aliens in trucks and hauling them away to be crushed.
[01:05]	DaemonFC	That's because they just leave them in the open street, making it impassable, and then while they ride them they use sidewalks and bike lanes illegally, and go the wrong way down one-way streets.
[01:05]	DaemonFC	They zip around making deliveries for Doordash and Uber Eats because they don't have any legal obligation to verify work permission in the US.
[01:05]	DaemonFC	So tossing the mopeds in the impound means that they can't do that anymore either.
[01:06]	DaemonFC	We should be making sure life here is so awful that they turn themselves in to be deported, ask to be deported, apologize for coming here uninvited even.

[01:10]	MinceR	lol
[01:11]	MinceR	though even that recipe isn't foolproof
[01:11]	MinceR	some people have moved to north korea, for example
[01:11]	MinceR	and it doesn't get much shittier than that
[01:11]	DaemonFC	Yes, the US never talks about it but some US soldiers have defected to North Korea.
[01:11]	DaemonFC	You never hear about this.
[01:12]	DaemonFC	Many were allowed to stay and were resettled to a commune and arranged to be married (to women who were older or who the government was fairly sure wouldn't have children).
[01:12]	DaemonFC	Whenever it happens, they just keep it quiet.
[01:18]	DaemonFC	https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/charles-robert-jenkins-dead-us-soldier-defector-north-korea-life-story-communism-propaganda-films-court-martial-a8106171.html
[01:18]	TR Bot	 Torture, brainwashing and movie stardom: The extraordinary life of Charles Jenkins, the US soldier who defected to North Korea | The Independent | The Independent
[01:19]	DaemonFC	"The idea was to teach the North Koreans American pronunciation. It took them until 1985 to realise that Jenkins thick Southern accent, which even some Americans would struggle to understand, was hindering, not helping the students."
[01:19]	DaemonFC	It took them 20 years to realize this?
[01:20]	DaemonFC	> By then, though, Jenkins and the other defectors had found other, more bizarre employment.
[01:20]	DaemonFC	> With Kim Il Sungs son and eventual successor Kim Jong-il becoming convinced of the value of propaganda films to the revolutionary struggle, the Americans were enlisted to play evil Westerners in what became a sprawling 20-part epic series of films called Unsung Heroes.
[01:20]	DaemonFC	> And so Jenkins found fame in North Korea as Dr Kelton, the pantomime villain who like all warmonger Capitalists was determined to keep the Korean War going to boost the profits of US arms manufacturers.
[01:20]	DaemonFC	> After the first movie [Nameless Heroes], recalled Jenkins, I would walk down the street and someone would yell, all excited and happy, Kelton Bac-Sa [Dr Kelton]! and even regular North Koreans would ask for my autograph.
[01:21]	DaemonFC	MinceR: I guess they don't get many chances to go see a movie in North Korea.
[01:22]	MinceR	:)
[01:22]	DaemonFC	> The government also found him a wife.
[01:22]	DaemonFC	> Hitomi Soga had been kidnapped in 1978 aged 19 from Sado island, Japan, one of a number of Japanese citizens kidnapped by the North Korean regime and made to teach its spies how to speak their language like a native.
[01:22]	DaemonFC	> Jenkins met Ms Soga in 1980 when he was 40 and she was 21.
[01:22]	DaemonFC	> Ms Soga would later tell her husbands court martial that a minder prepared her for that first meeting, which was ostensibly an English lesson, by telling her she was to marry the American.
[01:22]	DaemonFC	> Years later, Jenkins would become convinced it was part of a plan to produce children that the North Koreans could use as spies.
[01:22]	DaemonFC	> And yet, as Ms Soga put it at the court martial, Little by little, we started to love each other.
[01:22]	DaemonFC	> They bonded, it seems, over a mutual hatred of North Korea.
[01:23]	DaemonFC	In North Korea, I lived a dogs life, Jenkins told the LA Times. Aint nobody live good in North Korea. Nothing to eat. No running water. No electricity. In the wintertime you freeze in my bedroom, the walls were covered in ice.
[01:24]	DaemonFC	> No-one in the Jenkins family was allowed to leave their house without a political supervisor, and nobody ever dared criticise the North Korean regime.
[01:24]	DaemonFC	> You cant bring your neighbour over for a drink, Jenkins recalled. Why? People start drinking, they start talking. People disappear. And when one doesnt disappear, they know hes the one who squealed.
[01:24]	DaemonFC	> One day, he saw dogs digging up a mass grave near his home.
[01:25]	DaemonFC	> And yet, as a prized propaganda asset, Jenkins knew full well he had it far better than most in the Hermit Kingdom.
[01:25]	DaemonFC	> As millions of North Koreans starved to death in the famine of the 1990s, the Jenkins family received rations of rice, soap and clothing.
[01:25]	DaemonFC	> Even if the rice was crawling with insects, said Jenkins, it was much better than what the regular Korean got, which was nothing.
[01:25]	MinceR	leeroy mjenkins
[01:29]	DaemonFC	MinceR: The southern accent isn't particularly difficult to understand.
[01:30]	DaemonFC	The part that would be harder to listen to would be his because he hadn't been in the US at all since 1965 and people where he was from don't even speak that way anymore.
[01:31]	DaemonFC	It used to be a lot harsher than it is now and I think it's because the world has gotten smaller and it's easier to get from one place to another, and so many people are exposed to media that tends to sound more or less like the way I speak.
[01:31]	DaemonFC	You rarely see a southern US accent in a movie unless it's about the south, and of course since the movie industry is in California, they try to make the south look much worse than it is.
[01:31]	DaemonFC	They're a propaganda mill.
[01:32]	DaemonFC	They incite a lot of hatred.
[01:32]	MinceR	it's also easier to voice chat with someone anywhere on earth
[01:32]	DaemonFC	The Democrats are not nice, they are not peaceful.
[01:32]	DaemonFC	They are smug and arrogant and self-important.
[01:32]	DaemonFC	Smarmy.
[01:32]	DaemonFC	And very, very racist.
[01:33]	DaemonFC	People mostly support Donald Trump because they can't stand the condescending attitude they get from Democrats.
[01:34]	DaemonFC	The only reason the Democrats "support gay rights" is for votes. They realized that the Republicans were easily milking the people who want us in prison, or worse.
[01:34]	DaemonFC	So it was all about votes. The Democrats tried playing to the homophobes and it didn't gain a lot of support.
[01:34]	DaemonFC	Because they were so off putting in other ways.
[01:34]	DaemonFC	So they did a 180 and pretended they were all about gay rights from the start.
[01:35]	DaemonFC	When Bill Clinton banned gay marriage.
[01:35]	DaemonFC	In 1996.
[01:35]	DaemonFC	So, not ancient history.
[01:35]	DaemonFC	He signed a law that said "Whatever the States allow for that, the federal government says you're not married, and other States don't have to respect it.
[01:35]	DaemonFC	So it was a ban.
[01:35]	DaemonFC	Now he tries to say "I signed it so something even worse wouldn't happen."
[01:36]	DaemonFC	Even worse than what?
[01:36]	DaemonFC	When he signed it he figured it would be the law forever.
[01:36]	DaemonFC	He wanted to put the issue to rest at DOMA.
[01:37]	DaemonFC	That would be like if President Eisenhower signed a law that said "The federal government will never interfere with Segregation. Individual States can do whatever they want." and then said "Well, I signed it so something even worse wouldn't happen!"
[01:37]	DaemonFC	I mean, could you imagine? Like, would anyone believe him?
[01:38]	DaemonFC	It's like, no, signing a law that leaves gay marriage banned for thousands of federal benefits and programs and by 95% of the States.....
[01:38]	DaemonFC	How was Clinton preventing the situation from being worse?
[01:39]	DaemonFC	Bill Clinton is a philandering sack of shit, a child molester (Epstein), and a homophobe.
[01:39]	DaemonFC	And the Democrats still trawl him out and he's popular.
[01:40]	DaemonFC	If the Democrats wanted to say "We've gotten better." they'd put Clinton out to pasture and not invite him to anything.
[01:40]	DaemonFC	But they can't resist bringing him out to remind everyone he's there.
[01:41]	DaemonFC	It's probably ill health that's preventing him from stumping for Joe Biden.
[01:41]	DaemonFC	Because honestly Biden needs whatever he can get right now.

[21:19]	Sompi	I mean, if I buy a compooting device, surely I should be allowed to write programs for it...
[21:19]	MinceR	there's no point in using the state to force crApple to build a halfway decent product when decent products are already available
[21:19]	MinceR	you should

[21:28]	Sompi	and apple talking about "security" is ridiculous when their devices have actual easily exploitable zero-click vulnerabilities in them
[21:28]	MinceR	indeed
[21:28]	Sompi	their devices would be safer without that boot-locking stuff

[23:46]	DaemonFC	Most radio stations are now owned by three companies.
[23:47]	DaemonFC	There's a lot of debt because they hired conservative talk radio personalities at huge salaries and then the advertisers bailed.
