  • No no and fucking no (pun intended).

  • When I was in the army, ...

    Consider, too, that the military needs every sack of meat to be able to shoot straight, load mags, clear malfunctions, clean and maintain. By extension, the light arms they use are designed to be as dead simple as possible.

  • lol contract, what do you think this is, civilization?

  • That's abridgement of the First Amendment.

  • First Amendment guards against state repercussions for speech, with exceptions. Careful not to conflate the legal and colloquial usages.

  • Author talks about someone putting a hand on their shoulder, which acts as a sort of grounding or balancer. Facilitated communication is when the assistant is literally moving the person’s hands.

    There’s no way the author could be a PhD candidate with only a shoulder touch level of assistance.

  • Facilitated communication is definitely psuedoscience. Thankfully, that's not what this article's author was talking about.

  • So do I.

  • That card lock isn't to keep someone else from stealing your card, it's to make you take it. As long as the machine will only do what you've asked after you take your card, the bank isn't responsible for your card at all.

  • I've seen machines that still hold the card so it can't be removed (even though it remains visible), and will only release the card before completing whatever transaction you've asked it to do. Like, you have to take the card before it'll tell you your balance or give you cash or whatever. This is 100% a "we're not taking responsibility for you leaving your card in the machine" thing.

  • Under the threat of violence.

  • This is how it’s always been. Nothing new.

  • OP is clearly conflating "Americans" with some very specific people they have a fair beef with.

  • ... feel like they don't meet that ideal.

    Well, there's your problem, idealizing the traditional "gamer" persona. I play computer games every day, for a long time, and I also don't feel like a "gamer," because I don't want to be associated with people I would consider "gamers."

    That might be a side effect of my not wanting to be associated with anyone, but there you have it.

  • I have yet to see any evidence americans will "use their guns" against fascists.

    The people who have traditionally yelled about 2A and "the gubmint" taking their guns are today's fascists. Besides that, using firearms to topple a fascist regime that controls the most powerful military the world has ever seen will require a great deal of organization, planning, coordination, supply, and about ten times as many people doing non-"infantry" stuff to have a snowball's chance in hell of being successful - let alone the political support of a whole lot of state and local governments.

    Not sure what you think should be happening short of a full civil war. I mean, that's what it's gonna take, and that's what's gonna happen, but you can't seriously think that the practical foundations are yet in place for it.

  • I put one down behind my items just yesterday, and the Black woman behind me thanked me for doing so. So there’s a data point.
