Mandate of Heaven (foreign)
It's insane to me that so many people seem to have a concept of legal loopholes informed entirely by like non-specific-pop-culture. As if it's magic incantations that get power to fuck off instead of like a purposefully built system.
Here's a hot take: all the sovereign citizens and equivalent in other nations are just the average persons general ideas about how the law works cranked to 11. Basically everyone believes in the magic incantation, they just overshot a bit.
I'm genuinely pretty sure the DDR Museum in Berlin is run by socialists who want you to notice this, I swear to god that entire fucking place makes 0 sense otherwise. All the stations are like this, they're describing something good that nominally west germany did or still does but then describe it as bad because the communists did it, it ends with you looking at ginormous flat which it tells you cost the equivalent of 50€ per month or something and that nobody but the the richest 5% of the country could afford in Berlin today, before letting you out via the gift store full of DDR nostalgia to buy. Even all the most unpolitical, co-worker-belief-system people I've went there with caught on to it.
this is a mass shooting, going by commonly accepted definition
Just for the sake of discussion, this is an odd thing to do, right? To repurpose monuments? I feel like you either tear them down wholecloth or have them around as some sort of memorial. To have national pride in a monument, except that one bit, seems so odd.
We're about to get the worst op-eds in recent history in german newspapers
Feels prudent here, quoting from Wiki
The bicycles are custom designed for law enforcement use. Many manufacturers of bicycles offer police models, including Haro, Volcanic, Trek, Cannondale, Fuji, Safariland-Kona, Force, and KHS.
Never buy one new of those manufacturers. There's enough other manufacturers out there that this is very easy to do.
EDIT: Fuji especially by the way, they made big news during the BLM protests that they wouldn't anymore and then quietly resumed it after. To no surprise to anyone but still, if the jellyfish have you beat on spines you deserve ire
consider, however, not dying in a minor fender bender is gay. why you trying to stay alive, to have sex with men?
Really feeling the "high priests of capitalism" on this one
What internal logic is this whole thing operating on?
You start at "I want to bang 14 year olds" and work backwards from there
Love to see we've arrived at "Oh just because he was in the Waffen-SS he's a nazi now"
SF public transit sits at half a million per day ridership so I'm looking forward to being crammed into a car with about 333 other people
