This movie by Martin Scorsese is about how they dealt with Christian missionaries in the late 1600's in Japan. It is a long, very slow movie but let's just say it doesn't go well for Andrew Garfield or Adam Driver as the missionaries.
It's even worse when you factor in that the largest Catholic community in Japan was in Nagasaki when it got nuked.
If you need to ask someone permission to follow Christ, you do not understand Christianity.
I get the impression that the Emperor is trying to appease McArthur and the Americans, it is smart to turn down his offer as it would have caused some serious cultural problems on top of the problems the Americans were already facing when dealing with the Japanese post war.
It's interesting to think about what could have happened if this went through but at the time, im pretty sure he wanted to minimize as much resentment and strife as possible. There had just been an attempted coup before the emperor surrendered and Americans that parachuted into Japan to get prisoners out almost got shot. He did not want to push his luck, and I think in the long run that was the correct decision.
What about the other 38%?



She'll have an earpiece. Guaranteed.
It won't help. She's not that quick on the uptake and she's likely to expose it. I saw a vid on Twitter where she just barely caught herself before grabbing the earpiece.
This is bad for Kamala considering Trump has reached the majority if his real polling over performs by 2 to 3 like it has the past two elections. There might be a tipping point after debate where they flip the table and do whatever they can to keep power.

Something will definitely happen, they’ve been scared of this and it’s happening much sooner than they expected.
People laugh but I genuinely think flipping the table translates into an attempt to destroy the Internet. Think about it, they don't have competence to pull shit off with a spotlight shining on their operations so they want everything dark. If everybody's blind they get free reign to do whatever with no one wiser. Dont tell me they are not stupid enough to seriously think about it.

Musk I think could seriously ruin that idea though. If Trump and co gets access to starlight then they will have fucked the country for nothing.
So as far as I can tell, the only sources for pet eating is that video of that black American woman who was eating a cat in a town 200 miles away, a Facebook post in a town group complaining about someone eating a cat, testimony in City Hall about someone eating a cat, and some woman who made a video talking about Haitians eating a cat.

Proof that shes American:

The goose stuff and the wild driving thing seems to be true though

That being said, this is probably good for trump considering that Dems are wildly trying to correct the record
Im hearing a lot of accounts that cats are going missing anyway. One lady even described one has being strung up and carved open.
I don't even think it's a political alignment thing. During the George W days, there were some gut-punch funny jokes on the Internet had at that man's expense.

The problem is that, when it came time for the Democrats to take their beatings with Obama, they said no and started down this path of censoring everything that they don't like and/or threatens their control in any way. I think these people genuinely thought they would be able to use technology and their Ivy League degrees to win The Game™ for eternity.

You know that you're dealing with an A-Log type tyrant when a person cannot take a joke had at his or her expense.
It is very VERY rare to have a dictator that can take a joke at his expense. The only guy I heard that did that was Communist Tito of Yugoslavia. He would laugh his ass off if someone gave him shit.
 
sorry but i can't take liberals seriously that go and say "borders and nations don't exist" and then go and say "THEY COLLUDED WIT RUZZIANZ!!!!!". like bro you brought all of south america into the US to vote your democrat party, let repubs have some advantage by using gopniks.
Also pretending that funding foreign press is uniquely Russian when EVERY major country does it, US, UK, France, China, Russia, Isreal, Saudi Arabia, even fucking Mexico.
 
The Jew York Times just put up a screeching headline:

Trump Campaign Amplifies False Claim About Haitian Migrants in Ohio: A local official said there was “absolutely no evidence” that Haitian migrants have stolen and eaten pets, an outlandish claim amplified by the Trump campaign on Monday
archive (and paywalled link)

The first paragraph is wild even for the NYT:
The Trump campaign promoted an outlandish false claim on Monday that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, have abducted and eaten their neighbors’ pets, again demonizing migrants as the campaign seeks to attack Vice President Kamala Harris on immigration.

The article has the usual minimization, mischaracterization, and appeal to authority that defines mainstream journalism, stating that because city officials said it’s not happening, IT’S NOT HAPPENING, CHUD!

In addition to brazenly claiming that the flood of browns “has helped revitalize the town”, the demi-nigger journo Chris Cameron and his kike supervisor Miriam Jordan take especial pleasure in handwaving away the school bus crash that killed an 11 year-old boy, and seriously injured another. The 50 children who survived having their school bus flip upside down received minor injuries and the life long trauma of seeing one of their classmates die in front of them. All that horror courtesy of Hermanio Joseph, a foreign nigger who should not be here.

The pain of the residents of Springfield at the harm done to their children is described as irrational and illegitimate:
”Resentment has also brewed among some residents over the immigrants’ presence, and those emotions bubbled over recently after an immigrant driver was involved in a fatal school bus crash.”
These two journos are like a pair of health inspectors watching as a pot is negligently allowed to boil over in a dirty kitchen: absolutely contemptuous and disgusted.

I could go on, but you get the point. It’s very cruel, TJD, TKD, TND.

Trump Campaign Amplifies False Claim About Haitian Migrants in Ohio: A local official said there was “absolutely no evidence” that Haitian migrants have stolen and eaten pets, an outlandish claim amplified by the Trump campaign on Monday

The Trump campaign promoted an outlandish false claim on Monday that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, have abducted and eaten their neighbors’ pets, again demonizing migrants as the campaign seeks to attack Vice President Kamala Harris on immigration.

A news release from the campaign on Monday recounted the falsehoods, which were amplified earlier in the day by former President Donald J. Trump’s running mate, JD Vance, and sought to stoke fear, saying “it’s coming to your city next.”

Mr. Vance, as Ohio’s junior senator, has in recent months attacked the growing Haitian population in Springfield, a group whose members are living and working in the United States legally. Job opportunities in Springfield have attracted thousands of Haitians since the pandemic, with city officials estimating that as many as 20,000 have arrived. By most accounts, the immigrant community has helped revitalize the town, though it has put pressure on housing, schools and hospitals. (Springfield had roughly 58,000 people as of the last census in 2020.)

Resentment has also brewed among some residents over the immigrants’ presence, and those emotions bubbled over recently after an immigrant driver was involved in a fatal school bus crash. Mr. Vance has latched onto the complaints of community members and has denounced the Haitians as being in the United States illegally, “draining social services” and “generally causing chaos.”

Other prominent Republican elected officials and organizations, including Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, the House Republican campaign arm and the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee, promoted false claims about pets or park wildlife being eaten on Monday.
The notion stems from viral social media posts that city officials say there is no evidence for.

Karen Graves, a spokeswoman for the city of Springfield, said in a statement that “there have been no credible reports or specific claims of pets being harmed, injured or abused by individuals within the immigrant community.” The city’s police division also said it had received no reports related to pets being stolen and eaten, according to The Springfield-News Sun.

And Leann Castillo, the executive director for the Clark County Park District, said that they “have absolutely no evidence of this happening.” Ms. Castillo said that the false claim had spread for months and that “random people will call and ask” about it.

A spokesman for Mr. Vance did not provide evidence to support the claim, but said his remarks were made in response to a high volume of calls and emails over the past several weeks from concerned Springfield residents, who have at times packed city commission meetings to air their complaints.

Some residents, in those meetings, have accused their Haitian neighbors of invading the town — echoing the ominous “border invasion” language used by Mr. Trump, who sees his harsh rhetoric on the border and immigration as a winning campaign strategy.

The false claims being promoted by the Trump campaign tapped into old racist stereotypes that have been directed at immigrants, accusing them of abducting and killing animals to cook and eat or, in the case of Haitian migrants, using them in religious sacrifices.

Haiti and migrants from the country, who are overwhelmingly Black, have been the focus of Mr. Trump’s vitriol before. In 2021, Mr. Trump said that Haitian migrants were spreading AIDS to the United States, saying “it’s like a death wish for our country.” Mr. Trump has also referred to Haiti as a “shithole” country in remarks denigrating Haitian immigrants.
 
Vance is taking all the heat for Trump by the media while Trump just chilling lol.
Trump has to let Vance build, and also Vance is able to play up the younger aspect. Vance's appeal is weird because he's supposed to appeal to a demographic Trump doesn't appeal to.
Realistically though, I would save Vance is really a non-factor until the VP debate if it ever happens.
The desire would be to select a VP that could take over for the direction of the republican party after Trump's second championship ring.
 
The left is obsessed with putting 'debunked claim' ''false' or their favorites 'lies' about their enemies. And then you ask really what and it's like I don't have to explain it, it's obvious. They think their shit don't stink and their politicians are all faultless Jesus that only tell the 'Truth'. Fuck em.

And to above, I don't think I've ever watched a VP debate, but this should be good clownshow with how unstable a nut Walz is.

And the funniest thing about Vance is they called him 'weird' but he's like one of the most serious, straight talking guy that doesn't get worked up I've seen while Walz is a literal psycho clown.
 
They're trying to put pressure on ABC to change the rules with this petty-ass, "brat-coded" statement.
Anyone else rock hard?
I didn’t even watch the video. The guy on the right looks like an immense faggot.

Does the guy on the left have cancer or something?
He's a bald Manlet who refuses to get plugs and thinks he's fooling everyone. Someone literally snatched his wig a while back and made him flip out.
 
The Jew is literally blind. He’s literally a Blind Justice.
Now I sorta feel bad for mocking him.
It is very VERY rare to have a dictator that can take a joke at his expense. The only guy I heard that did that was Communist Tito of Yugoslavia. He would laugh his ass off if someone gave him shit.
Tito was very much the outlier.
 
Realistically though, I would save Vance is really a non-factor until the VP debate if it ever happens.
Everyone seems to think Trump and Kumala are only going to deboot once

If that's the case, having the final deboot of the election being a VP deboot is completely retarded and they won't have it then
 
It would be a very good debate that compares the Trump-Vance administration to the Harris-Witz administration
Yeah, that's why they probably won't do it. Either way it's bad for the dems. She fucks up, Walz really can't do anything cause that guy's a fool and the pressure will be insane. If she does great and Trump blows it, they don't need it either. So my odds are low it'll happen unless Trump/Vance really make a big deal about them not doing it, and they might.
 
I think if tomorrow night goes bad for Kamala, they’ll have to do the VP debate. Walz may be an idiot, but the alternative is allowing trump and Vance to say “look, she’s afraid.” That line worked already, and that was when the media could sweep for her.
When she’s bombed, it gives more merit to the “she’s afraid” line, and means they’re between a rock and a hard place.

But I also expect that if tomorrow goes bad for her, it will be a compounding effect. We already know she’s a pain to work for, who blames everyone but herself. I expect she’ll fire a bunch of upper level people and make it even more of a hell for those who stay. Which will just lead to more losses, worse decisions, and round and round it goes, where it ends, nobody knows.

Edit: also, remember that polling is beginning to tighten up, and there really hasn’t been a great post-convention bounce. I’d wager it’s already starting to get pretty hectic in the campaign, and that if things go bad, we may see turnover much like her first year as VP (which was what, like 90%? I know it was insane).
