The Flood / Re: LOOK WHAT CAME IN THE MAIL
« on: March 16, 2015, 05:22:01 PM »
I don't even know what I'm looking at. Is the shirt special or something?

It's a pattern of Camo, I just can't recall what it is. I want to say Austrian.

Edit: It's East German. So I was kind of close.
..people outside of hunters and rednecks buy camo on purpose?
It's not as if it's commercial hunting camo or autistic multicam.

It's an old uniform from a country that no longer exists. It's cool, and it will have historical value down the line.

unfortunately, there's no way to lock the interest groups/wealthy out of the equation without locking the grassroots fundraising out, too.
You limit the amount of money both legal and natural persons can donate?
Would it not be more effective to cap how much can be spent? This would do more to level the playing field, I think.

5406
Fuck that, I don't want my money going to perpetuate the corrupt two-party system.
ive uh.... got some bad news for you...



also, you misunderstood: i didnt mean that only donations wouldnt be accepted. i meant that the only funds that candidates would be allowed to use are special funds set aside by the government to spread information in a wholesome, substantive manner. this would prevent wealthy individuals or interest groups from using their massive monetary advantage to swing things in their favor
Which is, again, fucking retarded. Forcing the taxpayer to pay for frivolous shit like this that runs just fine on donations is ridiculous. A campaign spending or donation cap works just fine and doesn't force me or anybody else to fund people we hate.
"runs just fine on donations"

our campaign system is a fucking nightmare....
And you don't think it would be worse in the hands of bearaucrats?

I use Bose, forget the model number, can probably figure it out when I get home. Love them, couldn't be more satisfied.

I'm honestly pretty undecided on campaign spending. I'd rather see the donations pooled into a general fund that is fairly distributed to each candidate after the primaries, I think, but stuff like this painting Republicans as evil rich white guys is pretty ironic considering President Obama spent more and raised more than any other candidate in history. To get upset at the fact that presidential campaigns spend monumental amounts of money just seems childish at this point.

The difference was that Obama raised more money via small donors (people who donated less than $200 aka grass roots) than Romney raised in total iirc.

So that's kind of a false equivalency right there since Obama relied on these small donors in a big way.
yeah. big difference between an effective grassroots fundraising campaign and accepting massive chunks of money from wealthy interest groups/benefactors. unfortunately, there's no way to lock the interest groups/wealthy out of the equation without locking the grassroots fundraising out, too.

i wouldnt mind taking money out of campaigns altogether. would fix a lot of issues with the political game. government sets aside a certain pool of funds to spread information about candidates' political histories (could even just host a website with all the info the voters need,) no donations accepted for viral campaigning.

idk. i just dont think money should be wedded to politics.
terrible fucking idea

This would either mean that only the extremely wealthy could run, and pay for their own campaigns, or it would mean sucking more money off the taxpayer for stupid bullshit. Fuck that, I don't want my money going to perpetuate the corrupt two-party system.

A lot of different things. When I first started it was literally just some random letters, I didn't care much about the forums I just wanted the Halo 3 thing on my nameplate. Then it was Simba, then shortly after that it was Gatsby

Millions of Greek, Armenian, and Assyrian Christians died at the hands of the Young Turks, and it seems like nobody in a position of power out here is willing to say anything for fear of pissing off Turks.

I say fuck Turkey, this shit needs public recognition and the fact that it doesn't get much makes me really fucking mad. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood but thinking about this shit has me steaming.

I'm writing about the genocide of Assyrians for AP Human Geo and it's absolutely horrific what went down, nearly half of an entire ethnic group wiped out. I can't believe this shit still isn't recognized by every country in Europe, especially considering so many of them have laws against Holocaust denialism.

Maybe I haven't read enough but this is some seriously fucked up shit and I don't get why it isn't taught in schools. It seems like most of the west just glosses over this and only a few writers or politicians ever say anything about it in any given country.

Maybe in 300 years time, middle class Americans will finally realize that Republican really aren't on their side!!!
Nobody is on anybody's side in American politics. I hope you know this.
Thanks, Captain Fucking Obvious! But it's not like the entire rhetoric of the Republican Party is that they're on the side of the Middle Class. And it's not also like half the Middle Class gobbles that bullshit up.
Yes, and The Democrats have been billing themselves as the party of social equality and minority rights since the days of Lyndon "I'll have those niggers voting Democrat for the next 200 years" Johnson.

Democratic systems will always be plagued by people who pursue their own interests while billing themselves as actors for the greater good. This is an inherent flaw in the system.
Doesn't mean that the Republicans are any better. And Lyndon B Johnson's Presidency was 50 years ago, so a lot can change then. Need I tell you about Nixon's "Southern Strategy".

Either way, both parties are shit, and are just competing for which one is shittier. Which at the time being are the Republicans.
I never meant to imply the Reps were better and I hope I didn't come off that way.

Again, though, inherent hole in democracy. Everybody says they want what's best for the middle class, everybody wants to help the poor this way or that, everybody wants to save lives and protect your freedom while trampling on it, etc. Nobody can or will ever be honest about their intentions.

Fallout 3 was a good post-apocalyptic aRPG, just not a good Fallout game.
I'd hardly call it post-apocalyptic at all. It looks like the apocalypse happened two days ago.

Not to mention the absolutely retarded worldbuilding.

And what about the 'freedom' of the victim? They obviously wouldn't 'want' to be raped. That's not freedom.
They have the freedom to kill their attacker.

See, that's what true freedom is. Where everybody does whatever they want.
That's what I'm for.

Wow this isn't a strawman piece of garbage at all.

Freedom is the right to gang rape people on their vacation. It goes both ways. That's why we can't have true freedom.
I really want to address how fucking retarded this comment is, but I feel like I shouldn't even give it attention. I'm conflicted.

No, he really isn't trasnparent, plain, or down to earth. He's a classist, racist, dictator who has his opponents killed and lies about.
I'll give you not transparent, plain, down to earth and half of dictator, but racist and classist? You're wading into MSNBC waters there.
