I'm sure like the Patriot Act it'll end there. Glad you're admitting it now tho.

You hear that folks: THIS MAGA IS DIRECTLY SAYING IT IS A POLICE STATE AND HE LIKES IT.
If you think ICE arresting illegals, their job, so they can be deported is some kind of secret police, you deserve to dragged to a black site and waterboarded until you stop being retarded. You know, for someone who claims to be more right wing than everyone on this forum, you do spend a lot of time sucking off every stupid shitlib and stupid shitlib ideas here. I'm starting to think you might just be a lying piece of shit. Or someone's retarded sock. Or both.
 
Where’s the problem? If you want all your politicians to suck off jews than vote for it. I’ll vote for the lesser of those two evils while Trump is licking the goy wall.
The lesser of two evils being the party who support Israel while importing hostile shitskins by the million? Epic. Vote blue all you want, nigger lover. Biden's disastrous term did too much damage to public sentiment for it to make a difference. Your country is getting un-spic'd wether you like it or not :)

If anything he might be a sort of "abolish the revenoors so we can lynch the mexicans ourselves" kind of conservative. I have him on ignore anyway because he thinks the Butler assassination attempt was an obvious fake, despite the dead guy. That's just too retarded to bother with.
 
We need to shut down roasties until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

The rack of Abby Shapiro, the ass of Hank Hill.
I was going to make a post saying: call me when it's an older women wearing jeans. Yeah, this doesn't count. Mace looks like a man.
 
Never forget that the best penguins are the Adélies.

After the petrel leaves, the adelie is like "Are you guys doing anything later? I'm thinking of going to this metal show, you guys want to come? I'm cool with the guy at the door, I can totally get you in. Hey, if any of you have any money I can buy us smokes!"
 
Starship Troopers is a fun action movie, but as a case study of political ideologies or society or the nature of propaganda yadda yadda yadda it's about as shallow as you can get. It was so poorly executed in it's """"satire"""" of fascism that critics of the time unironically thought it was a pro-fascist movie, and the director (who openly admitted that he didn't even read the book he was adapting) had to come out and run damage control in interviews.

You want actual nuance read the novel. It's a bit dry, but it had far more thought put into it.
I loved that novel so much I read the whole thing in one day. It's almost prescient in its predictions of how a universally enfranchised society eats itself. Nobody has skin in the game, and so politics became purchasing votes.

There's a long section discussing how allowing criminal youth to run amok without consequence was actually cruel in the long run. The society that precedes Starship Troopers had gangs of youths who were spared their punishments by the system. They got worse and worse until they were adults committing crimes that got them thrown in cells for their entire lives. They damaged their communities and, in the end, they still weren't spared a miserable existence. Tough love early on is what they needed.

The general premise of Starship Troopers is that Federal Service enables voting. The long and short of it is that most people lived great lives and could thrive at every level of society, but politics and choosing the direction of the society required that you be willing to pay dearly for it. The entire novel serves to explore what that society would look like. It's an ethics lesson, and it's largely given through the setting of having Johnny Rico take actual fucking ethics lessons.

Also the Mobile Infantry is so much cooler in the books. Think a fast moving squad of Master Chiefs with tactical nuke launchers. I like the movie for what it is, it's stupid and fun, but it doesn't hold a candle to the book and what you get to see in the (very sparse) combat.

Don't be a fag, read the book.

This describes Charles Manson's youth to an absurd degree, and when I read the book that stuck with me.

Kinda funny how in the books the mobile infantry is more like space Marines (I know they predate 40k but still) while in the movie they are more like the guard.

Adélies are cheeky fucks. They are like kiwis but in Antarctica: curious and no fear to the point of it being dangerous for them. There are stories of explorers with dogs going to Antarctica, watching Adélie penguins get closer and closer to the dogs and goading them without getting caught. An Adélie would inevitably get too close and get ripped apart by the dogs. The explorers were like... what is wrong with these silly bastards?

It's hilarious how often liberals bash it as fascism pornography when Heinlein literally predicted where liberals were going in 1959.

I vote for the third position where all politicians are forced to give their constituancy blowies on command. That way women will stop running for office.
 
I'm curious since I haven't followed this situation as closely: are they just giving up and getting ready to take the L, or is the Texas government basically threatening to arrest these fucks if they don't play ball?
Both. They're stalling, counting on other states to make up the difference and showing good faith in order to satiate Abbot into hopefully delaying coming for them until they get a backup plan.
