Go read Lincoln’s inaugural address.

The majority is about how he wasn’t going to federally outlaw slavery.

So yeah. The SC was proslavery, but the North wasn’t against it either until well into the war. Even then it wasn’t about doing the right thing. Wealthy Europeans knew the north would win, but also knew Southern landowners would sell on the cheap during the war.

By federally outlawing slavery, it made the agricultural land in the South drop in value.

This allowed the war to end significantly earlier.

It’s not a war crime because Lebanon and Israel are not at war,

Their defense minister literally just said it was a war…

Speaking to Israeli troops on Wednesday, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said, “We are at the start of a new phase in the war — it requires courage, determination and perseverance.” He made no mention of the exploding devices but praised the work of Israel’s army and security agencies, saying “the results are very impressive.”

They’re desperately trying to start wars to drag the US in while Biden is still in office.

If an all out war happens, there is 100% chance Biden dives into it.

Kamala there’s a slight chance she does the right thing, and trump’s price to go against Russia’s allies will be ridiculously high.

So they want Biden to be the one to react.

I mean. It should be anyways…

Like fuck Sean Combs, but most people stuck in jail are because they can’t post bail. Or because of the American bail system, can’t afford to pay 10% as essentially a fine.

Thousands of people deal with it every day there, it sucks we only talk about it when a rich person experiences it. But we still need to talk about.

Tell Israel:

Why would you think only valid military targets were next to these?

Why are you still believing the IDFs first reports when the vast majority of the time they’re lying?

1. You think milkshakes are the best food

2. Medical knowledge says you shouldn’t try to only live off milkshakes

3. You say the medical community is part of a conspiracy by Big Vegetable

This is why it’s important people understand the details of the civil war.

What lead to it wasn’t just “slavery” it’s that the South wanted the federal government to go into Northern states and bring back anyone that was suspected of being an escaped slave back to the South. Basically they wanted federal law enforcement to go on slave raids.

They won’t be happy with shitty laws in their own states, they want to force everyone else to follow them.

And this time the SC is on their side, and if we won’t fix that, we need to be ready for the bullshit they’ll keep pulling.

The Phenom 2?!

I barely remember it, but yeah, it was a beast.

But my 1700x went hard for five years. The only reason I tacked the extra 5 on was x3d changes things up.

Now, since I’ve made that comment AMD has solved the Zen 5 latency issues but cutting it by more than half. That’s what was holding it back. So when the Zen 5 x3d comes out, it’s going to be nuts.

But…

It’s going to take a while for those changes to become industry standard. It might be a year before Zen 5 x3d, I’m not sure if they’ve even announced when. So games won’t take full advantage of them right away.

It takes like a 4070 super to CPU bound a 7800x3d, and fine tune some settings and it’ll balance out

We’re not going to have a new screen resolution jump, and that combo can max out 4k 120fps on pretty much anything thanks to frame generation without even touching upscaling.

There’s just not a lot to improve until we see a major jump like VR finally taking off.

Lol. The tweet is defending Zionism and illegal Israeli land expansion, while also denying the history that Jewish people from Europe replaced the natives who had been living on that land for millennia when Israel was created by the British…

Like, imagine trying to sell people that the creation of Israel by the Brits was the one time the Brits actually handled it correctly.

The fact checking in this article is perfect lol

“So what America should be saying is, if NATO wants us to continue supporting them and NATO wants us to continue to be a good participant in this military alliance, why don’t you respect American values and respect free speech?” Vance asked. “It’s insane that we would support a military alliance if that military alliance isn’t going to be pro-free speech. I think we can do both. But we’ve got to say American power comes with certain strings attached. One of those is respect free speech, especially in our European allies.”

Musk has been accused of banning several journalists since taking over Twitter, now X.

“I’m not going to go to some backwoods country and tell them how to live their lives,” Vance added. “But European countries should theoretically share American values, especially about some very basic things like free speech.”

The US ranked 26th in the world when it comes to free speech, with several members of the European Union higher up the list, according to the 2024 Global Expression Report.

Edit 1: Does no one read in Lemmy? Lol.

I got downvoted for posting a fact check about this myth from a reputable source.

Because no one thinks she did…

If you posted:

Is Harris an energy vampire trying to take over the world for the Golden Retriever lobby?

People wouldn’t care if the link says she’s not, everyone knows shes not and they’re just downvoting a clickbait headline.

Even if they could somehow prove every single person in possession of those pagers was a combatant, those people were just everywhere spread out in society.

Imagine sitting on a bus and the person next to you you’ve never seen before explodes, and you do too

You would just have to find it…

Like, if you didn’t have anything to use the app. You would just have to physically find it…

Same way you find anything else that doesn’t have an app

That’s cops doing “stop and frisk” in high crime areas…

That’s not them pulling over vehicles at the border and searching…

Bruh…

No one is searching people as they pull into DC…

If they’re bringing guns to overthrow the government, no one is going to know until they pull them out.

Whether that’s a rifle from a truck or a pistol from their pants, it doesn’t matter if it’s legal or not when as soon as it comes out they’re trying to overthrowing the government

So…

They’re just casually admitting to another war crime?

Against someone I don’t even think they’re officially at war against?

D.C. has crazy gun restrictions precisely for this reason, so a bunch of guys rolling up in 4x4s with AR’s aren’t getting far.

If they’re recreating Mad Max…

But they’re not searching vehicles when they get to DC.

He doesn’t need to be there tho, he can just tell them “it would be great” if someone did it on twitter

Nate Silver

Lol

The guy who kept saying Hillary would win despite polling, fucked up covid and argued against medical experts, got laid off from his own company and called Biden a “walking corpse”?

The one literally bankrolled by the same guy bankrolling JD Vance?

https://www.vox.com/politics/372217/nate-silver-2024-polls-trump-harris

Why are you listening to him? Did you see that takedown article from today and walk away from it thinking he was the good guy?

I now coincidences are a thing, but that’s a little spooky…

If not, you should read that, here’s a good quote from it:

Accordingly, the uproar over the current forecast, from people who want Harris to win, has been quite pronounced. “Who bought #NateSilver and how much did he go for?” actress Bette Midler posted on X. Baseless conspiracy theories have been hatched that Silver’s recently announced gig as an adviser to the online prediction market Polymarket is spurring him to do the bidding of right-wing billionaires and skew his analysis against Harris. (Silver has strongly denied those claims. “Peter Thiel isn’t paying me any more than he’s paying someone who works for Facebook or Lyft,” he recently posted on X.)

Among the more data-literate, the main critique of Silver’s model lately has been that it’s unfairly punishing Harris for not getting a big polling bounce after the Democratic convention. (Nominees typically get a bounce then and lose some of that advantage later on, but this is an unusual cycle and perhaps Harris got her “bounce” earlier, when she entered the race.) On September 7, Silver wrote that if the “convention bounce” setting was turned off, the model would show something extremely close to a pure 50-50 contest; he has also said that this effect will dwindle the further we get from the convention.

Daniels followed up. “But in the way that we send weapons and the way we interact as their ally, are there specific policy changes?”

Harris said that she was “entirely supportive” of the Biden administration’s decision to pause a shipment of weapons. She then quickly turned back to a need for a ceasefire agreement.

Literally nothing would accelerate the time table to a permanent ceasefire more than just not giving Israel any more weapons

They wouldn’t have the munitions to keep up. And pretty much every other ally has already cut them off.
