Seattle and Los Angeles are like they have been for the past week, someone got shot in Salt Lake City, some Democratic politicians got attacked in Minnesota and the parade (despite what people say about it) technically had no major issues. The fighting between Iran and Israel remains a big thing to talk about and Juneteeth is coming up.
 
Why are they so slow at running from hearing obvious danger? Three shots and everyone is still walking fine and dandy for 11-12 seconds.
They're cattle. The survival instinct has been completely bred or beaten out of them (if it was still present in any of them, they'd be up in arms about being displaced by immigrants).
 
I didn't see it mentioned, but the crowd sang "happy birthday" to Trump, before he was handed the flag (link, starts around 24 sec).

I really liked the music they played during the fireworks, it was a nice mix of classic Americana-type songs.

"Why are these people singing 'Happy Birthday' to America's HITLER?!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

These people really think Trump is the next Hitler, don't they? If only

Trump is an absolutely awful Hitler. Here's a little breakdown of Hitlers rise to power: In January of 1933 Hitler was sworn in as Chancellor, in February of 1933 the Reichstag caught fire, in March of 1933 Hitler had Parliament pass the Enabling Act which effectively gave Hitler unlimited power. By May of 1933 Hitler forced all trade unions to dissolve. By July of 1933 Hitler had essentially banned all other political parties in Germany, leaving Germany solidly in the hands of the Nazis in all areas of government. Skipping forward a year from June 30th to July 2nd of 1934 Hitler carried out the Night of the Long Knives. In August of 1934 President Hindenburg died and the office of President was abolished by Hitler. The transition to total control of Germany was now complete.

Trump has been in office since January 20th, 2017. So far he hasn't killed or imprisoned his political rivals, burned down Congress, or even gotten a law passed to give him absolute power over the government. Hitler accomplished his goals in roughly a year or year and a half. Trump is simply absolutely awful at being a dictator compared to how quickly Hitler was able to take over Germany.
 
I like Miller, I don't know if he'd make a good president, but I very much like what I've seen so far.
Miller is a genius strategy guy and really good at pushing the MAGA agenda forward but there is no way he could be elected. He isn't very personable and doesn't give the mushy non-answers that politicians give to get elected.

After the mid terms Trump/Miller really need to start putting JDVance out there so people feel its just a continuation of the Trump administration.
 
It’s not about missing the shot, it’s about not knowing where the fucking trigger is. I have absolutely no clue what I’m doing.

Anyway, back to politics: are we any closer to a motive on the Minnesota representative shooter?
Ask her out to dinner. If you don't wanna take her to dinner, aske her out for coffee. Accept she can shoot you down. Don't take it hard, women are picky. Once your on the actual date, act normal. Don't sperg about something autistic like trains. Talk a little about your job, your hobbies (non-autistic ones: video games and anime don't count as hobbies to women), your plans for the future. Show some interest in her life, her job, her hobbies, etc... Pay for whatever your doing,

And remember practice makes perfect, you won't get a hang for women till you've done this a couple times.

fucking leftist kikes
Yeah, those leftist kikes give kikes a bad name don't they?

Honest answer? most of them probably don't know how to tell the difference between a gunshot and the shit like the fireworks they've been lobbing at cops all week.
It’s not about missing the shot, it’s about not knowing where the fucking trigger is. I have absolutely no clue what I’m doing.
Taking the metaphor "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take" which is about scoring in hockey, and mistaking it with a gun metaphor by bringing up finding the trigger. Is accidentally super on brand for what you're saying.

Idk man, there was a hot alt chick who talked to me and was hyping me up even after I royally fucked up MCR and a bunch of other folks around my age, when normally this bar attracts aging millennials. Stuck out to me.
Fair enough, there was that other guy in the thread mentioning bars and how they're good for looking at hot chicks, and it just stuck out to me, so now I'm half-convinced you're some sorta shill for that alone. I have no proof and I'm not really going to pretend it's true on any objective level. Soz king. Glad to see you got the rizz at least.

What am I supposed to be shilling? Karaoke?
 
There’s something about these protests that really rubs me the wrong way. At risk of sounding like a faggot, I think it’s the open barefaced gaslighting by the crowd as a whole. Chanting “peaceful protest” while actively engaged in violence against police. It’s like the Solzhenitsyn quote:

“We know they are lying, they know they are lying, they know that we know they are lying, we know they know we know they are lying, and still they continue to lie."
I get the exact same feeling. It's so manipulative and deceptive it makes my blood boil.
s a P.S. The Gulag Archipelago is a fantastic account of the disgusting actions of communists in the Soviet Union and there are very many parallels to leftist communist activities that you can view in the modern left. A very very applicable similarity is the view of criminals as a socially acceptable class, and supporting them over those you view as political enemies. I encourage anyone to read it.
There are good sections in Mein Kampf where Hitler describes trying to debate with commies in his younger days. How they would do the same thing. He would say that if you got them to finally concede some points it was only because it was clear they are losing and to save some face. But the next day they would be arguing as if none of it had happened, and they wouldn't even admit they had conceded that very point the day before. it was back to square one.

on solzhenitsyn, I'd also recommend 200 Years Together. its not far off to say that the communist revolution was a jewish revolution.

Miller's main problem is his appearance. The man looks way too cold to appeal to normies. He has a vampiric aestethic. Appearance is unbelievably important in politics, people are superficial.
 
Never forget that the United States that won World War 2 was segregationist, the military was not racially integrated and there were multiple race riots during the conflict. It's strange in how leftists see the conflict and American participation in it. I'm sure there were some soldiers who hated the Germans for whatever reason but there probably weren't instances of American soldiers doing things with their skulls like with what happened to quite a few Japanese war dead.

Never ask a leftist what flag flew over Shuri Castle on Okinawa, or how many soldiers didn't want Blacks serving alongside them. In a way, i think most leftists know this but won't admit it. And the ones who do try and find some token example, like those black mail ladies that Netflix show is about. Also they praise the USSR for the same thing, that and because communists, when they were really no different from America back in the day, socially at least.

True on all counts, those Boomers who wonder why "Timmy" isn't attending the protest will also shout at them for not fixing everything for them when they can't.

And you're also right in them not caring anymore; as someone who is 25 (99 birth) I'm just sick and tired of the kabuki theater scam. I'm not going to remotely care about, say, some former Soviet Bloc country Boomer politicians think is strategically important, if ever. I know everything is one big scam, so I can't force myself to care anymore - and those Boomers won't listen to you or me because we're not a talking head on the TV.
The system is collapsing and everyone knows it. It's not a matter of if but when. This is why alot of Zoomers are having nostalgia moments over the 2000s when everything seemed optimistic and bright. Boomers had the chance to make something and ruined it, and then call Zoomers lazy. Some of it they were right about, but a lot of it is out of touch. No sorry if Zoomers don't want to join in some protests like it's Woodstock '69
