None of those people mattered, duh.

This doesn't matter at all. Release the Epstein files.

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 hours ago

We need justice and closure for the survivors. That's why the files need to be released.

Boycott the NFL if you like American style football just watch Canadian or Australian football or even rugby they are all close enough and in some cases like Australian football I would say are better

If you suggest this to a Canadian they'll rip out your spine, they could never give up hockey or seal clubbing.

Cool, another reason for me to hate football

To quote Marilyn Manson:

"If you die when there's no one watching,

then your ratings drop and you're forgotten.

But if they kill you on their TV,

You're a martyr and a Lamb Of God. "

The fucking state of Virginia is calling for a moment of silence over this guy. What the hell is going on?

the far-right establishment behind the Trump administration is preparing to use this as the justification for the incoming Reichstagsbrandverordnung.

They've got their van der Lubbe now and they're working to get their bullshit in before Nov 2026

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Wlthe fact that a nazi is called lube scares me tremendously

[–] philosloppy@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

van der Lubbe was a communist who was executed for starting the Reichstag Fire...

And to bury the Epstein birthday book. Did anyone realize that the emails between Maxwell and Epstein were released yesterday?

They're martyrizing him. Goal is probably civil war and trans genocide.

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 5 points 13 hours ago

Bigots, racists, liars, and stochastic terrorists are the rights idols. That is what is going on.

It's not like I can boycott their garbage any more than I already do.

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 5 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

It will likely happen before every football game this weekend.

Fox News will then publish a pearl-clutching compilation of people booing at college football games, and Trump will use that to justify defunding those institutions further.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 6 hours ago

i have a suggestion, and that's that everyone going to one of these events, cue up Entry of the Gladiators by Julius Fucik, have multiple copies downloaded on your phone ready to go at whatever public event you're at ready for that jackass' moment of silence, and blare it out your phone. count down one two three then whoever's ready plays at full volume. drown the motherfucker out.

[–] kerntucky@infosec.pub 4 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

The federal government funds the NFL?

College football Tomorrow

Edit: nevermind,

[–] livejamie@lemmy.zip 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

There are hundreds of College Football games that take place on Saturdays, although I think the moment of silence and pearl clutching will also occur at the NFL games on Sundays.

[–] kerntucky@infosec.pub 3 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

I don't understand. What does that have to do with whether or not the federal government funds the NFL?

*Edit: I'm half asleep and didn't realize you were talking about him defunding colleges. My bad.

I saw an electronic billboard yesterday on the road that said "In Rememberance Today" or something like that and started getting angry thinking they were talking about Charlie Kirk but then I'm like, oh damn, I done forgot...

[–] jmsy@lemmy.world 62 points 20 hours ago (3 children)

The last time I checked, and fuck me if I'm wrong, the NFL has several black athletes. What did kirk say about black people?

Calling the Civil Rights Act of 1964 a "huge mistake"

Describing Martin Luther King Jr. as "awful" and "not a good person"

Stated "If I see a Black pilot, I'm going to think, 'I hope he's qualified'"

Claimed successful Black women like Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, and Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson were "affirmative action picks" who "do not possess the cognitive capacity to be taken seriously"

The league only cares about black athletes to the degree that it can profit off their performance.

Case in point: Colin Kaepernick knelt during the national anthem -- which was honestly an extremely mild form of protest -- and was immediately black-balled.

If they do care about black athletes, they clearly care about money a lot more.
