New Jersey isn’t real, it’s just a suburb of NYC and Philly.

Pardon Luigi!

NY, Florida, Texas, California are the only states, the rest is Ohio

So what you’re saying is we need a strategic MtG card reserve.

I regret to inform you.

Danny Devito.

No, I’m saying you should be careful in cases where it could be taken as an antisemitic dogwhistle.

That’s not the case at all, you can look at my post history if you want to know the things I think.

It’s just you generally want to avoid antisemitic tropes when you’re talking about Zionists because antisemites say Zionist when they mean Jew.

Why would they? Humans aren’t supposed to be there

Depicting Zionists as lizards isn’t great.

Is europe gonna actually get snow though? Or is it going to continue to be drier?

Well, in Whoville they say – that the Grinch’s small grussy grew three sizes that day.

I couldn’t get past the 4th example of “non-violence” without laughing at how wildly revisionist they are. While each of these had non-violent components, none of them would have succeeded without violence. The housing rights act wasn’t passed until literally every city was on fire.

Here’s a great book detailing the experiences that lead civil rights leaders to understand the importance of a real, credible threat for any “non-violent” component to be effective..

The British gave up their occupation of India after a decades-long nonviolent struggle by the Indian population led by Mohandas Gandhi.

The Danes, Norwegians and other peoples in Europe used civil resistance against Nazi invasion during World War II, raising the costs to Germany of its occupation of these nations, helping to strengthen the spirit and cohesion of their people, and saving the lives of thousands of Jews in Berlin to Copenhagen to Paris and elsewhere.

Labor movements around the world have consistently used tactics of civil resistance to win concessions for workers throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

African Americans used civil resistance in their struggle to dissolve segregation in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s.

non-violent resistance is more often effective

It’s only ever effective when a credible violent alternative is present.

No oppressed person in history has ever gotten their rights by appealing to the better nature of their oppressor.

Civil rights weren’t won when black people asked politely and just moving everyone’s hearts at how unjustly they were being treated, when MLK died, he had a 75% disapproval rating. Civil rights were won through repeated demonstrations of power and showing what would happen if their demands weren’t met.

He was always like this, he just became more abrasive after the stroke.

We just closed our eyes and looked the other way when he showed himself to be a rabid zionist and assumed he’d grown from when he chased a black man through neighborhood with a shotgun.

You see him go against AIPAC-backed corpo dems in the primary and interpreted some labor rhetoric and putting a hammer and sickle in his profile pic and it’s easy to mislead yourself.

It’s what happens when you don’t do the critical part of critical support.

This is different from Sinoma who simply lied about all of her positions.

Holy shit why are people hemming and hawing about Hunter Biden when he let this fucking monster off?

The rendering in interestingengineering article is a stock image. An older SCMP article gives a much weirder rendering which matches the whitepaper the lead researcher published on I-shaped hypersonic configurations.

So I have no idea what the blurry ass rocket pic is supposed to be, maybe it was a test vehicle for just the engine, maybe SCMP misattributed it, maybe the team dumped the whole “I-shaped configuration” thing.

Presumably any ram or scram-jet engine will require a rocket engine or other assist, assuming it’s not a hybrid like the SR-71.

To give loans to develop resource extraction and export with the requirement of cutting education and investment into added-value products.

It probably is, the whole reason supersonic passenger flight looked feasible for a bit was that turbine technology hadn’t caught up so slower jets weren’t that much less efficient than supersonic jets.

But fuel concerns aside, it’s kinda silly to compare a billion dollar fighter jet built with 60s technology to a 747-sized aircraft built for passenger flight with modern technology. Just wildly different environments, purposes, and resources.

smh. How are you ever going to learn to catch mice when you can’t catch one in your own bed?
