I don’t pay attention to The Quartering and he’s definitely not the only person opining on the situation. That says more about your circle than it does mine.

If “don’t have broken families on purpose” is preening moralism to you and you somehow consider yourself right wing, then you are an extremely confused person indeed. I was there too, and that was NOT the moralizing being done at the time.

They moralized about violent video games while warmongering and parroting empty platitudes about Jesus, not intentionally fathering bastard children. In 2003, that was more of a common sense position. Apparently in 2025 the right wing position according to you is, “Woah dude, all families are valid bro.”

The right needs to gatekeep. Those with liberal values are only going to subvert any real right wing thought once again and we’ll end up right back where we were this time last year. Just because you’re too stupid to see that doesn’t make me a “fair weather right winger,” it makes you a gullible idiot or a temporarily embarrassed shitlib.

If broken families (done on purpose, no less) are no big deal to you, how the fuck can you say you have right wing beliefs? Not even Conservatives are as delusional and pathetic as that.
I just like my right wing fundies to be at least morally consistent and bully pagan sympathisers and other degenerates to death as well. But i bet you will twist yourself in to a knot to defend the Stolas worshipper. If we are going back to the retard fundie rules that make the right wing lose.
The least you could do is make sure you dress the fucking part.
The funny thing is, all the right wing influencers who are going after this hoe, break every other rule of the church nearly everyday. I could find you a million infractions from 1 account alone. You have fucking Milo"big black cock"yiannopoulos being the catty shit stick here. A man who is so ex-gay he still sucks dick. But i guess you will put up with him, because he is still useful i would bet?
I don't really care about this hoe. But what i care about is the right being lead in to purity spiralling that ultimately makes enemy's, drives wedges and destroys trust.
 
@Justa Grata Honoria, I think you may have been right. JD Vance flat out told these fucks they're dead weight if they don't shape up, and this two-bit David Koechner lookalike's reaction is pearl clutching.
Europeans are in delulu land firstly the current social landscape doesnt allow to take from pensioners who are 20+ % in most eu countries and they vote religiously to keep their gibs and those gibs eat into everything housing, food, medical sector etc etc , next are the social parasites they imported to keep their FIRE sector afloat and line to go up they wont accept cut in gibs and vote also religiously, third are the youth who is mostly with two citizenships and will gladly pack up and leave the minute anything of this goes away . The leaders are completely inept in diplomacy and think they can clap their hands and the world will listen like its 19th century when europe was ruling the world and just manage to piss off potential allies and current allies not to mention thinking they can order how other countries produce and sell stuff I shit you not which destroys their countries more without getting anything in return beyond "access to eu market" which is worthless majority of the population are old and broke and dying . Literally dead weight . Trump knows this anyone with more than two brain cells can see this. I am fucking janitor cans see this .


You just need to let eu burn to the ground there is no saving too many layers of the society are on the dole , just pick up the skilled labour who already speaks english and put a cross on the remnants . I am not joking .
 
Hunger is a great motivator, and those older teenagers can either work, or use their hunger to motivate their non working parent to go earn so they can have more food. Also, the parents can work now that the teenager doesnt need to be babysat.
The motivated ones better be working under the table, because if the household's income goes up, the benefit amounts go down.

Maybe EBT could take children's ages into consideration, and have an amount for kids 2-9 and a slightly larger amount for kids 10-17.

700 hours community penance in the Crystal, subsequent convictions will increase exponentially
 
Steaks and crab aren't where the EBT money is going. Or rather, if you see someone piling up their cart with steaks and crab, then paying for it with EBT, they're trading the steaks and crab for drugs, not eating them.

The biggest waste of EBT money happens in bodegas and small liquor stores that also sell food. The EBT recipients sell their EBT for 50 cents on the dollar in cash, and the store owner just swipes through different groceries until the card is empty and puts the groceries back on the shelf.

Some of the bodegas keep a box of products behind the counter specifically for this purpose. A lot of these bodegas run numbers or other gambling games out of their stores as well. Some sell single cigarettes and illegally packaged food such as jerky, popcorn, candy, and peanuts in the shell, bought in bulk and repackaged in small plastic sandwich bags. They rarely sell drugs out of the store, because if they lose their liquor license the game is over. Some of them will refer druggies for a finder's fee from the dealer and return EBT business from the druggie.

I know this because I used to live next door to a bodega and also bought single cigarettes, candy, jerky, and peanuts from under the counter. I had relatively friendly relations with the store owners as well (as friendly as one can get with a predator). I also got questioned by the cops the night the bodega got robbed for their gambling winnings, which they kept in cash in a floor safe. I had noticed lights left on in the store at night, but didn't know about the gambling before this point. The cops visited us pretty regularly about problems at the bodega, and that's why we kept our doors locked and drove nails the window sills so they could only be opened a few inches.
there was an asian mart I used to hit a lot that had all their stuff registered in the system as nonspecific "grocery" booze, food, keychains, whatever and it all rang up the same kosher for EBT
 
not to mention thinking they can order how other countries produce and sell stuff I shit you not which destroys their countries more without getting anything in return beyond "access to eu market"
Watching the EU regulate itself to death has been interesting. I thought US regulations were bad under Obongo and Biden, but holy shit.

I agree with Keith Woods' take on RFK.
Sounds dumb as fuck. We know he is gay as shit on a lot of issues but he is running HHS and not anything else and he also serves at the pleasure of the President.

The current food and medical industries are killing us at record rates and they need change at levels never seen before and no one else besides RFK Jr would have the balls to take them on.

He easily could've kept running indy or joined the dem ticket either of which probably swings the election but he decided he wanted to actually make a difference in the lives of Americans and especially children so he joined Trump and brought a significant group of voters with him.

Motherfucking 75% of men in the US are overweight or obese.
 
Following his speech, Vance met with Alternative for Germany (AfD) co-leader Alice Weidel at the sidelines of the conference, according to a spokesperson for Weidel.
if he really snubbed scholz and rather met with weidel, that's a bigger fuck you most burgers can understand. it's like him travelling to london, call both labour and tories faggots, and then met with farrage afterwards instead of two-tier starmer. :story:
that move from a perceived "ally" is gonna turn some heads, especially after all the MSM bullshit (you know the drill) and fearmongering by politicians to ban it because MUH DEMOCRACY MUH CONSTITUTION MUH NATHSEEES. which is probably why they kept in on the down low, it's literally the first time I heard about it.

but then scholz most likely won't be re-elected anyway and after a chancellor stint the political career is pretty much over, so why bother.

the speech itself is making some waves, since they all can't stop reporting on it covefe-style and "rebuking it" instead of letting it blow over. but then no one claimed journos to be smart.

Brandmauer = firewall = is that what the Germans call it?
it's the literal translation of it. germans also to incorporate english words for some reason, so some will say "firewall" to make it sound more important/impressive.

What are the odds that Scholz loses re-election; and, even if he loses, won't some other schmuck take his place since they're suppressing any non-establishment party?

The guys next door were from Lebanon and were fairly concerned about their liquor license going bye-bye, so they were very careful about not ringing up any alcohol, tobacco, or lottery tickets during the scam. Idk about the various objects they sold, like knives, lighters, energy shots, weird herbal dick pills, condoms, singke doses of over-the-counter drugs, and "single roses in a glass tube" that looked suspiciously like meth pipes. They also carded for cigarettes and other tobacco products religiously. Afaik getting popped by the ATF was the only thing that would lose their liquor license. All the other stuff, they might go to jail for it, but they'd have another sand nigger in there to replace them the very next day.

I remember when they first took over the store and licenses, one of the guys complained to me about poor turnout and wondered if they'd been cheated on the store. I told him as soon as they had EBT and Lotto back, their business would triple. The liquor license and tobacco license had to transfer before they could reopen the store after the sale, but EBT and Lotto took a little while longer. That guy gave me free cokes for months after that, because they'd been thinking about selling for cheap because they thought the business was dying. Guess he talked to other sand nigger liquor store owners to figure out all the other scams, these dudes were still pretty fresh off the boat.
 
With how Trump won, I think even if RFK joined Kamabla Trump would still win, it would have just been electorally and wouldn't have the clear visage of a mandate, which would have made things like DOGE just be a dream. Originally I was worried there was enough in RFK's base to sway states, but with how well PA was flipped to even avoid the 3AM Philadelphia ballot printers it didn't matter.
 
iirc he reached out to them first and they wouldn't take his call, so he talked to Trump instead
Has this even been confirmed? I remember the news, but they all came up after he met with Trump.

I remember him telling Tucker did he reach out both campaigns, but as far as I recall he never tried to get a position with Kamala because he knew it was the DNC who tried to keep him out of the ballots.

it's not all bad, for example yurop never had the issues with shitty food like you burgers have. but you can only "fix" and "improve" stuff for so long before your job becomes worthless, so just like an established LGBTBBQ advocate was basically unemployed once gay marriage was a thing, you invent and exaggerate problems, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_Sustainability_Due_Diligence_Directive

not even a bad idea on paper, and keeps first world companies from going for the cheapest labor and resources, but completely pointless when especially the greens are pushing EV shit that is sourced from china and africa.

Just Germans doing German things.
german politicians, and you'll hardly find one especially at the top that's a valid representation of the population. most people I've seen think the whole AFD thing is bullshit, and like burger plebs can see shit get worse year after year and want change.

think of it this way, imagine trump hadn't won in 2016, that's basically germany today.

As Trump said "Keep Bobby away from the oil"

RFK and Trump knows he's there for the health and not the other stuff. They're both not total ideologues and know what is important and how to compromise. I think RFK cares the most about health and chronic disease, the other stuff is secondary and he won't have control over that.
