Ok, what is the genuine reason shit like this keeps happening? Do people at these things just do things they haven’t done before as stunts (ie, flying planes, operating pyrotechnics, etc), or is there some other underlying reason?

Horrifying, but that username is legit.

This is maybe the best shitpost I’ve ever seen in my life. Well done indeed.

If Tanden gets thrown under the bus to get a better Covid Relief package it will make my entire month.

This is always the best thing. This is what radicalised the content the Onion was putting out, for instance.

Yeah, this type of propaganda has existed countless times throughout history, and has literally never been true on a large scale. This is also basically why Pol Pot thought he would beat the Vietnamese (before he got his ass handed to him).

Also a ton of things cite documents on the Russian Civil War written by White Generals (ie, Denikin).

Any time any entity does something or has something happen to them, it’s actually socialism. Sorry, haters, I don’t make the rules.

Has it gotten even worse over the last few years? Because I remember them being fairly milquetoast bullshit by reputation, but they seem to have been downright awful for the last little bit.

It’s like a game where people have to take turns adding one or two words to a thing to make it worse.
