  • Why are Republicans criticising Hegseth?

    Because they need a fall-guy for Iran. It’s ironic because the things directly under Hegseth’s control appear to have largely functioned as intended. That is the strikes on Iran have been carried out with minimal US losses. Don’t @ me about war crimes like the Minab school, Republicans DGAF.

    The problem with the Iran war is the decision to start it and the terms upon which it will end. We should launch an investigation into who’s responsible for that.

    When I worked at Blockbuster, I miskeyed almost every credit card number on new-member applications. The system didn’t authorize the cards, or even check if the number was valid.

    At the end of every shift, the computer would attempt to charge late fees to the card on record if your balance was >30days old. The failure rate was high due to expired cards anyway, so nobody ever got suspicious.










  • The identity of the female victim was not released. A statement released by Muskingum County’s Prosecutor’s Office shows that Baker used to make racist comments about her being Black and racial slurs like the N-word to refer to the victim.

    Comprehensive research on sexual harassment in housing is sparse. In one 2008 Georgia State University study found that 68% of the reported victims were Black while virtually all of the perpetrators were White men. The study’s author, Dr. Griff Tester, analyzed 137 housing sexual harassment complaints made to the Ohio Civil Rights Commission between 1990 and 2003.

    it is about race though.




  • Homer is obviously white in terms of culture

    You understand that race and skin color are not the same thing, which makes the rest of your argument confusing. If we are to understand that yellow is just a proxy for white, then making it the standard and default is preserving the essence of whiteness while flatting and erasing everything else.

    Race isn’t real. Neither are religion, human rights, boarders, sovereignty, language, the law, and money. Just because something isn’t real doesn’t make it powerless or irrelevant. Only people with yellow privilege get to ignore race.
