You admitted that enough of them were in favour of the insurrection and some were part of it.

Suspended with pay. But I was implying the cops didn’t “falter.” Enough of them were in favor of it and some were actually there as part of the insurrection.

I’m not sure what your point is. They failed the elected members of Congress which means they faltered

Are they spending $18 per person on schools? Another $18 per person on libraries? What about hospitals?

…probably because of their roll in riot supression. Rulers don’t want that service faultering on them at an inopportune moment.

Like on January 6?

Isn’t the American dream intended to feed the capitalists in charge? This would fit right in with the plan.

that he was such an auteur that he would only do it if he could film on location

I came here to say this. Brilliant.

What a fucking backwater of a country. Remember also that India has so many rapes that if the news reported on every single one, you’d never hear about anything else.

For me, a better analogy is pyrite (commonly known as fool’s gold).

It appears to be gold, but is in fact cheap iron sulphide. It is sometimes found in association with small amounts of gold, similar to some of those people that tend to come out of the woodwork when we complain about shitty work conditions, saying, “well I have a nice paying job”.

Same way as living in a cramped <300 sqft studio is better than being homeless.

All I keep reading is the failure of capitalism at the end of the day.

Domestic solar panel production is lagging and cheaper shit from China is gonna make it worse

Isn’t this the point of the free market? Shouldn’t capitalists rejoice when things are working as intended?

Don’t forget, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen was just in China to protect US interests - this time because China has flooded the market with cheap solar panels.

We can’t have solar power becoming affordable and accessible for most people.

They have been doing this for a while now. Remember the flour massacre?

Note that Israel will be banning Al Jazeera because they are perceived to be a threat to security.

Certainly, airing videos showing Israelis in a bad light is indeed a threat to their security. You know, people may doubt their intentions.

Not a single Palestinian to be seen to cement their claim to the land, just as they did in 1948: they claimed it was a barren wasteland.

If this video evidence didn’t exist they’d probably claim they built this hospital themselves when there was nothing there.

In this context I believe it was short for simpleton.

Is UttarPradesh man India’s Florida man?

Surprised their lackeys the Saudis aren’t the ones doing the bombing.

Is anyone surprised that inadequate standards of care and regulations would result in increased deaths?

Almost like companies don’t have people’s best interests at heart.

Ask the country you have a forward operating base in.
