  • The claim that ICE were scared may be true, but only because these guys seems so inexplicably under equipped and poorly lead.

    Maybe the “police” in this clip had orders to deescalate. But from what I’ve seen ICE will use physical violence and tear gas at far less. Maybe they had no gas, which would go along with some of the shields looking like office supplies from Temu. Maybe the leadership was ineffective on a tactical level. I mean the protestors were throwing, what looks to me like, cardboard boxes and other light items. Organizing grabbing a protestor should be easy, but these guys just kept retreating.

    Is this what you get when you give every police academy reject 30k USD, a badge and gun?


  • Lol I think the only thing more ADHD, than my obsessing about the issues with the post, is interpreting a comment almost apologetically pointing out the issues, as an assault and getting defensive about it.

    The spirit animal concept is problematic itself https://duckduckgo.com/?q=is+spirit+animal+cultural+appropriation and claiming that it’s a duck exposes either your own lack of knowledge or sexual kinks.

    Besides reading articles about it, potentially written by white Europeans or hallucinated by AI, I can’t know whether spirit animals actually are offensive, as we don’t have a lot of native Americans here in Scandinavia to talk with. But if we want to be inclusive then maybe we should just err on the side of caution?




  • YSK ducks gang rape, routinely resulting in female ducks, and their ducklings, drowning. But sure, you be a duck.

    Also, and this may sound harsher than it’s meant. I mean I don’t know you, this may not even apply to you. Anyway, I thought the whole spirit animal thing went down the hole labeled cultural appropriation. Not that I’m offended, if it is cultural appropriation, then I’m on the list of cultures for whom it’s inappropriate to use.




  • The hierarchy means little if the common soldiers agree and band together. They’re the ones with the guns.

    Not the soldiers, their commanders. Soldiers won’t be able to coordinate much beyond the scope of their platoon, maybe across a company. A rogue force of company size does not a rebellion make.

    So unless a battalion command gets together and decides to rebel, it’ll be on too small of a scale to make anything but a tactical difference. And the soldiers knows this, and they know that they’ll be severely punished. I don’t know the Minnesota national guard laws and regulations, but I suspect that soldiers helping ICE kill Minnesotans, could be facing a firing squad or the gallows.

    So no, I wouldn’t be afraid of having the national guard protect Minnesotans under the command of Tim Waltz, who himself was a command sergeant major in the army national guard.

    What would be scary would be having the national guard federalised, something we’ve seen Trump do with the same enthusiasm as raping 12 year olds. And if army commanders goes against Trump, then there’d be a real civil war, when national guard units from the Dakotas, Iowa and Michigan are federalised.






  • What’s up with the instant name calling?

    A lot of countries tried to not get into a fight with Hitler. You chose to highlight the USSR, but Mussolini was an ally and Franco’s Spain didn’t really have a problem with the bombing of Guernica. Countries like Romania and Finland fought with the nazis. Once invaded Denmark rolled over until 1943, and Sweden were so scaed that they let the nazis use Sweden to get to Norway. Half of France didn’t exactly voice their opposition, and the UK’s PM Chamberlain came of as a major wuss. After the war, when all the atrocities were already public, bunch of Nazis got off because they had usable knowledge, the same with the Japanese scientists.

    But let’s only talk about how the Soviets cozied up, and call people, who’re pointing out that there’s extremely few innocent combatants in a war, insane.
