Curious: what made them better?

Ladieez nutz

Not even the same person lol.

Yep, see my edit. 👍

Whether or not you think she did a Nazi salute, it’s close enough that it doesn’t matter.

Fair enough. 👍 At this point I’m just exhausted by the fact that America voted for this shit and so it’s what they and the rest of the world is dealt now for the coming 4 years. Just gotta bite this brown banana and like it. What else can we do. Worse shit is to come, I’m sure. This is the first week and it’s already going to shit.

I’m just glad I live relatively far away.

Just using the same argumentative style that you are. I’m giving you details into how I believe it wasn’t on purpose. You just say “nah, she did it”, so I say “nah, she didn’t”. 🤷‍♂️

I don’t know nothing bout no cpac or what Odal rune stage is. Don’t know what the fuck that is.

Have a good day, son.

Edit: never mind, you’re someone else who I wasn’t taking to in the first place. 👍

Still, have a good day.

Nah, she didn’t.

I looked up that video to see what she looked like doing it, and that looked way more accidental than Musk’s. I think she confused herself and did a mix between a stiff wave and pointing at the crowd, which she then started actually doing. That’s my take.

Disclaimer, I don’t even know who this Laura is, so this is strictly unbiased.

That’s why I subscribe not to topics, but to interests. It doesn’t solve the problem but it puts me with more interesting content and like-minded people, hopefully. Then again I don’t want to be in a bias bubble…

Alright, thanks so much. 👊

Very interesting, thank you for this input. This is the kind of insight I was looking for. I guess I was focused on this part:

It doesn’t mean I think every cop is personally bad in their private professional life.

But as you say, merely participating in the system makes them bad. Not individually, but as a concept.

In that case, I think it’s important not to blame the cops, but the system. Because we all know there are many of them who are not trying to uphold the unjust laws, but the just laws. Sometimes in life you have to take the good with the bad, and surely that is what many officers are doing.

All those individuals are trying to do is make a positive impact on their community, and protect its members.

So in this type of reasoning, I think we’re putting the focus on the wrong thing, the cops. Whereas we should be putting the focus on regulators, law makers, etc.

Just give your answer anyways, you don’t need their permission.

Very true. I wish they would’ve done that instead of immediately low-key insulting me.

I believe that ACAB

Okay, I’ll listen to your reasoning if you’re willing to share. 🙂

All within your right.

So the level of professionalism is… Expert. Not “Pro”?

I gotta teach my wife this word.

We all choose to believe what we choose to believe. 👍

I’m not talking about the ideology here, I’m talking about the linguistics of it all, specifically about the word “Nazism”. 😊

He’s my generation. That’s what we did in the dawn of the internet when web email was new and shit. Everybody has “coolname87” “dogshit89”, “hipguy88” as their username. It’s not such a wild idea.

Tangential: shouldn’t it be “Naziism”? Like, in “Nazi” the “i” belongs to “Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei”, or the “Natio—” part. But shouldn’t there be another “i” that goes with the “ism” suffix, so “Naziism”? Am I thinking about it in the wrong way?

I can’t quit Facebook, there’s so many people that I need to sell off my old shit to on Marketplace. 😫

Oh yeah, I bet it is. I guess experience and play-testing are key here.

You could spend your whole life studying this stuff and end up realizing that there is still way more to learn.

As with most things, I suppose. The Dunning-Kruger curve springs to mind. 😅

Well anyways, thanks for the conversation! Wishing you a prosperous 2025. ✨
