The Walking Eagle thread

I think the biggest issue is they are too caught up in the zietgiest with very little capacity for seeing the bigger, longer-term picture. Kissinger’s was less than 12 months after the action he was awarded for. Likewise for Obama’s.

And that is odd, because that is the complete opposite perspective to the way the various science awards are given out by the Nobel committee.

You do know how Nobel made his money, right?

But the peace prize isn’t awarded by the Swedish foundation he set up.

i only started lurking on twitter in 2016 waiting for him to implode

i honestly don’t pay too much attention to him–he’s a toxic moron who’s not gonna change

i am amused by his inability to spell and apparent belief that inverted commas connote emphasis, though

The only twitter stuff I see is what’s posted here (or were posted on TIA) so I hardly have a clue what your talking about. My line is if I keep off twitter I just might retain the small amout of sanity I have remaining. :wink:

Anyone from west coast, USA??? What’s the latest on the forest fire situation???

Not from there, but they are expecting heavy rains, so that should help

Yup. I was wondering who would pick me up on this… :wink:

Calm down; the president has explained everything.

Trees just explode, apparently.

As someone who once made a campfire out of eucalyptus back while backpacking in Oz, I can confirm that this is sometimes the case :rofl:

ICE performing forced hysterectomies, according to a whistleblower

wonder if jake tapper approves of calling them concentration camps yet

Shouldn’t you share your sources when making statements like that.

It;s the subject of a whistleblower complaint that has now been reported on by pretty much everyone. Just google “whistleblower AND ICE”

I just think it should be supported by a link to the origins,it’s a pretty serious accusation and if it’s true is a seriously fucked up situation.
The accusations of the U.S. becoming a fascist state are not that far from the truth apparently.

World leading on all the wrong things.

Note, the description that is commonly being used, “exorbitant rate of hysterectomies” does not remotely cover how awful this is. This is being done under the guise of medical care, but the report states that this is being performed without informed consent, or medical justification, and even with deception (women going in for one treatment and coming out without a uterus). This is outright ethnic based forced sterilization

Like I said, this is not some niche story. It broke yesterday and is now being covered ubiquitously.

Gonna have to see some hard evidence for this one. The idea that this would not have broke sooner is one I can’t wrap my mind around. I don’t know of any medical professionals who would perform involuntary sterilization on patients without raising some kind of alarms. Just doesn’t track for me.
