"Russian volunteer troops in Izyum locate Ukrainian Satanic “child network”. Ukraine a hotzone for human trafficking satanic organ harvesting. "The remains had their organs and brains removed. They were like gutted rabbits."

how batshit crazy do you have to be to believe something like this?

and, personally, i resent it deeply as a dues-paying member of the "satanic organ harvesters" local union #666!

Organ harvesting and sales is a world wide multi billion dollar industry.

i have never presented it as assistance or charity.

i have presented it as evidence of hypocrisy.

and you are the one who saw a parallel between james mattis and a destructive mob.


reminds me of an old saying;

"ignorant people can't be embarrassed or shamed."

Why is it hypocrisy then?

 

[St. Phatty]

I wonder what is the correlation between "efficiency" in the domestic economy, and the might of the military.

I wonder how long it takes in Russia to fix a telecom tower that was blown down by wind.

Where Iive it has been 3 1/2 weeks, and zero signs of progress, other than lawyers sending each other letters threatening impending legal consequences.

The Internet providers are telling the tower company that they have no obligation to pay $700 a month for a tiny amount of space on an antenna that is laying on the ground, with all the equipment smushed.

I have never seen the US more disabled and less "can do" than it was in 2022/2023.

How does that filter over to the military sector and the reliability of the gear ?

If the repair time for a simple blown down tower in Russia is 1 week, what does that say about the quality of their military gear ?

Because all the Internet is down, I concentrated on mixing up 2023 soil mixes. Got several cubic yards mixed up, basically the indigenous soil with worms and plant food.

Sounds like your local government sucks.

You must live in a republican area

I can't remember the last time I lost a utility, let alone gone without.

my wife and i both do a lot of work via the internet. service here was interrupted one time in 2 years when a passing truck with an extended bucket attachment tore the cable off the house.

it was fixed the same afternoon. we've never lost electric service. there's a nuclear power plant 20 miles away.

i guess it's probably a good idea to think about the services in an area before you move there.

 

[greyfader]

Why is it hypocrisy then?

because they hate the very land that legally made available and provided these welfare systems for them. for their welfare.

the opportunity to even have access to such programs means that you are a privileged person on this planet.

A mandatory contract on earnings isn't welfare, but you can frame it that way if you want to.

I've refrained from posting russian death for the most part.

If you think they aren't dying in large numbers, I can help you see the truth.

It doesn't seem that anyone knows an actual number of losses on either side. Each source seems to differ a fair bit in their estimates. (Sorry the format didn't copy as well into the thread, but it still shows the estimated stats.)

I wonder what we'll call it when my generation has paid their whole lives and the fund runs out in about 10 years and we don't see a return.

Suckers?

Call it protecting democracy with the shiny new weapons your money paid for.

What did the Romans call it?

She was victim from Epstein and survived, but saw a newspaper article 1993 about child trafficking mainly from Eastern Europe where one boy 12 years old was used for a snuff movie.I will spare you the details, but that was sick satanic.

I can't remember the last time I lost a utility, let alone gone without.

The Trick is standing up at a County Meeting,
and explaining WHY they suck,
and what they can do about it,
without pissing everybody off.

There was actually an article in the paper about "some retired guy" getting into a yelling match with one of the county commissioners, about the county commissioners doing a shitty job.

Now the county commissioners are seeking vengeance on the local paper by putting legal notices in the newspaper one town over.

. we've never lost electric service. there's a nuclear power plant 20 miles away.

power goes out here every time that it rains/snows/wind blows. but never for more than a few minutes, since the utility company went around and had ALL overhanging branches etc trimmed back away from power lines. live among a cluster of TVA dams here...

 

[mean mr.mustard]

Just wait until the justice seeking peace keepers shoot up the local substations.
