I voted 'for' the man thrice. Throwing this accusation at me really only reifies my point. It's not 'falling for a narrative' to notice that you and your ilk will continue to ignore these problems because you worship an adulterer.
I never said that you were a leftie, that’s a non-sequitur right there. I know for certain that one of the tactics being used by leftists is to claim that we worship Trump somehow even though nobody does. It’s a projection to try and cover up their own loyalty to the democrat party.
Non-sequitur
Nothing I said there was a non-sequitur.

The best you have is 'trust the plan bro!'.

And it's source is your incapacity to accept truth. I'll bring this up in three months and we'll see how he's progressed. I wonder if you'll still be willing in that time to proffer the excuse that things are being handled in some mysterious hidden way that runs counter to all observable evidence, to protect yourself from the cognitive dissonance that erupts when anyone who voted against Clinton, then Biden, then Harris rather than for Trump, begins to point out the current failings of his administration.
“Mysterious hidden way” They’re pretty blatant about their meddling against Trump so I don’t know why you had the need to babble on and on about that.

The accusation that I 'fell for a narrative'.
I never mentioned leftism retard.

Yes it's a non-sequitur to state a baseless assertion and act as if it rebukes a conclusion derived from what is readily observable.

Who is the 'their' in this sentence?

Another non-sequitur. I clearly meant your bullshit assertion about my points being 'addressed behind the scenes'. That in some 'mysterious and hidden way' Trump's totally taking care of these points, bro:

Government transparency (releasing the Epstein files unredacted)
Disentangling from foreign influence and political ties that are problematic - 'America First' (refusing to continue Israel-first policies/rhetoric)
Helping the American worker (ending H-1B and other associated programs)
Bringing down inflation (committing to government shutdowns and not signing spending bills)
Anti-DEI (averting working with Larry Fink, CEO of DEI, and others like him)


Again, I'll wait a few months then come back here and bring up the very same list I made in the post you're feebly attempting to address in a cogent manner. I wonder what inane and irrational tripe you'll have to trot out then, drone?

To be fair there are now so many repositories of pre built code for every function imaginable out there that a significant part of low level software development is copy pasting pre built code from Github, reconciling errors, and then compiling.

It doesn't take a genius, if you've ever installed a nude mod for Skyrim or whatever you can do that shit too.
 
Game prices haven't kept up with inflation. Wait until you find out how much gas and milk have gone up since 2005.
This is true, and AAA games have (generally) expanded in scope but I'm torn on what the major increase in labor is actually about. Is it because AAA titles are now openish world games where you walk around between dozens of different minigames someone has to program? Or is it because ballooning visual fidelity means some poor bastard is painting endless 4k textures down to minute detail and that just takes a lot longer?

It sure as hell isn't because they actually fix bugs in their engines - if a glitch isn't game breaking, it's probably staying right where it is, even when they re-release the 8k remaster in 10 years.
 
“After this, we don’t know what we’ll do,” said 29-year-old Hayatullah Omagh, who fled Afghanistan in 2022 after the Taliban takeover.
So what she's saying is Biden fucked her and generated a refugee crisis with the retarded Afghanistan withdrawal. That sucks, but par for Biden.

Edit: sorry for the double post
 
The case against him was a civil one and not a criminal one. Someone who knows Irish law could better give a rundown as to why this is because from what I know of burger cases, this is highly suspect. So eh. Still not at all relevant to what Jace was talking about.
The burden of proof is higher in criminal cases than it is in civil ones. The Department of Public Prosecution didn't think they would have been able to secure a conviction against McGregor, so they wouldn't take it to court. Nikita Hand, his accuser took him to civil court and won. It's honestly very hard to know who is telling the truth as both of their stories have holes. Most people view the fact that she was covered in bruises and had to have her tampon removed via forceps as proof that he's guilty. And it does look bad, obviously. But she was on a two day booze and coke bender, as was he, and I don't think it's outside the realm of reason that she forgot about the tampon, neither of them noticed it and that even with consensual sex, a tampon could end up needing to be removed.

And there is also the case that the other woman in the hotel suite with them gave a statement that she thought that Hand was fine after she came out of McGregor's room and she happily hugged her goodbye before McGregor and the other woman left. Then Hand stayed behind and either had sex with McGregor's friend or was raped by the friend. (The man who had been having sex with the other woman while McGregor and Hand were in McGregor's room.) There was no way to secure a conviction and I'm not convinced, from what I do know, that she should have won the civil case either. Which doesn't mean I'm convinced of his innocence. I very much suspect they went to his room with both of them intending to have sex and at some point she regretted that decision, as afaik, she was in a relationship with the father of her young child, at the time. Whether she regretted that decision before anything happened and he wouldn't let her leave or she regretted it after consensual sex and reframed it as rape after the fact, I don't know. His history of violence and her bruises suggest the latter. Though, supposedly there is cctv footage of her hugging him after the sex/rape which could suggest the former.
 
The accusation that I 'fell for a narrative'.

Cause it pretty much is a narrative. The guy who made the claim is Steve Hassan who’s considered the “leading expert on cults” simply because he was in the Moonies back in the 70s and he is known for using “deprogramming” as a way to brainwash people which he got from his time with the moonies.
Yes it's a non-sequitur to state a baseless assertion and act as if it rebukes a conclusion derived from what is readily observable.
Claiming that nothing is being addressed is in itself a baseless assertion that you got from watching the media.

Who is the 'their' in this sentence?

You know who they are, the democrat judges, the media, the usual suspects who don’t want him to implement anything.

So what happens if in a few months he decides to address at least some of your points? Are you just going to be silent about it?
 
Elon being autistic in his support of H1B is what soured me on him and I wish trump would tell him to hit the road. Elon literally wants to flood engineering with the mess Indians because they work for cheap and kiss his ass. Can’t support him after that.
The thing with Elon is that he owns the social media platform that got Trump elected so Trump knows he has to play nice. Vivek on the other hand did the exact same shit and his ass got kicked to the designated shitting street for it.

I still would never want to work for Musk and I sure as shit wouldn't want to see him hold any public office. He's not the kind of guy you want having power over you.
 
Please God let this happen. I want 8000 year old, completely zombified Biden vs Vance in 28.

I never thought I'd say this, but I almost feel bad for Joe.

Keyword: Almost. He deserves this for being a terrible father and a child molester. Now his punishment is being drug around on stage by his family members who want to milk his senile ass for money because they can't do it on their own. This legitimately has to be hell on earth for him.
