And let us not forget the Vanport flood, which the Portland authorities downplayed for decades and used as an excuse to pave over a vibrant community to make a raceway and a golf course. They only recently admitted that there was ‘some’ loss of life.

Because racists would inevitably set the requirements.

Yeah, seriously, that’s where they drew the line?

Eh, maybe the editor had an elephant’s-foot wastebasket at home.

They’re not ‘tough guy’ gangs so instead of knives they’re using tomatoes to settle the dispute.

Except it’s not very good. I turn it off and still get AI pictures and videos, and it gets rid of some pictures I know aren’t AI.

Dude, you’re everywhere making low-effort bad takes about everything. I get that you like to start arguments, but I really wish you’d put more effort and skill into it. Then at least arguing with you would be interesting.

‘True and proper order being restored’ and ‘those uppity Others finally getting their just desserts’. And they figure that if they have to suffer a bit for that, then so be it. You have to remember that these ‘Christian’ loonies all have a persecution complex, so for them a little suffering is seen as a good thing.

The problem tends to be that (1) experts are only experts in their own fields, but have a distressing tendency to think that makes them experts in all fields and (2) an expert is often only an expert if unchallenged. Plenty of ‘experts’ have had their research get supplanted—or attempts have been made to supplant it—with newer, more accurate research, but the older so-called experts often fight against that newer research so as not to lose their exalted status. Sadly, you see often in science (look at how Louis Pasteur was treated when he dared to suggest bacteria caused disease).

I hate to say it, but I absolutely guarantee the law will do nothing but show up afterwards and pick up the pieces. If he does decide to get his fat ass off the couch and come get you, you’ll have to handle him yourself.
