And obviously, Shaq wasn't just sitting there passing the ball to everyone else; he was playing both point guard and center roles at the same time, basically running the whole offense 🤦 Just find me one single article where anyone actually expected Chicago to win anything with Washington, D.C. Please, just one.
The sheer amount of stupidity here is unreal. Like, do you actually process what you read? I used to think that guy from politics whose name starts with an M was the biggest idiot on this forum, but you’re making him look like a genius by comparison.
Better than Chicago are: Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Wilt Chamberlain...
I forgot to mention this to these kids who apparently never even watched the NBA back in the eighties or nineties. Chicago was taking every single shot. Seriously, everything, especially when the game was on the line. And then, when he misses one of those last twenty clutch attempts, everyone acts like it’s some unprecedented tragedy. But when Steve Kerr sinks one on his only attempt, nobody makes a big deal out of it. Not to mention how Chicago used to hunt for fouls to get a billion free throws, and since he was such a great shooter, you could basically just pad your stats however you wanted.

The whole point here is how state agencies are teaming up and messing with our lives. So, like, what does your average American citizen actually get out of having some joint police HQ in New York City?
The police use intel too, so I guess... is it just specific data for certain cases, or is this wide-scale cooperation stuff?
Is this just building new intel networks—basically reconnecting the old ones—or is it actually harmless like our politicians claim...
Just a bit of history:
Back when the Canadian delegation walked out during the last Communist Party of the Soviet Union session, they did it with one message: We aren't part of America anymore. When the Americans stood up and left, their vibe was more like: We'll be back once things settle down.
Well, we see where that determination got Canada, and we see where we are now. Looks like things "settled," and now our reps are basically crawling back to that joint assembly in New York City...
It’s just a fact, even if people tend to dodge the subject in public.
Just go get a full cardiac workup done. It’ll probably show your heart is totally fine, which might actually help you chill out. Plus, maybe that pain is just coming from your spine or something.

And even then, it’s usually while they're drunk and standing in front of women, kids, and old people. In any other scenario, I guess their bravest move is just flooring an out-of-control tractor.
Richard Wilson4 said:Look, you shouldn't overestimate the Mexicans, but don't underestimate them either...
They did manage to walk away with most of the equipment from the American People's Army, and they still have it. Plus, their entire military industry was basically built on purpose using American and Canadian money.
Honestly, they’ve got a bigger and stronger military. But then again, that was the case back in '91 too. The real difference is that Mexicans aren't like Americans—they just aren't those same kinds of tough fighters :2up:🙂.
If the Mexican defense forces actually had significantly more people, anti-tank gear, and the heavy weaponry they're currently lacking, the Mexicans would probably be in for a pretty bad time.
The Mexicans wouldn't stand a chance, honestly. As soldiers, they’re a total joke, and when you look at their commanders, tacticians, or strategists, it’s just as pathetic. Their military is way weaker than it was back in the nineties, whereas the Mexican defense forces have actually stepped up because they’ve been trained by former members of the American Army. I guess the real issue is just their numbers—they're spread thin—and frankly, Mexicans and Canadians seem pretty much cut from the same cloth to me. It would probably just end up being a messy, unresolved situation.
This looks like a textbook case of a moderator spinning things. I’ve looked into what actually happened here, and it seems pretty clear that the whole mess started because of a classic revisionist move—you know, where the aggressors get painted as the good guys while the victims (in this case, the mothers of those lost in the war) are treated like the bad ones. If a post like that is allowed to stay on the forum as the "official truth," then all the other posts showing the opposite side have to stay too. Either that, or you just wipe everything out. You can't just leave one specific perspective up and label it as "constructive" and "thoughtful." Doing that is just selective information filtering meant to manipulate the narrative. They force one viewpoint on everyone, call it deep and reasoned, and then scrub any opposing arguments by labeling them homophobic in the follow-up explanations. It’s honestly pathetic, especially since the post that actually kicked off this entire debate was clearly the homophobic one, and it's pretty obvious who the aggressors are, who the victims are, who the hypocrite is (Tadić), and who is being sincere (those mothers).
It’s just the same old Kazoo Latin routine. Everyone in the studio is basically on the same side, and there isn't a single soul there capable of actually pushing back. On top of that, they're lying through their teeth. Kazoo Latin claims that when the coalition took over back in 2000, media freedom finally kicked in and people could actually write about anything—which is a total lie—and he insists they never forced anyone out of their jobs. Then, suddenly, once the Republican Party got back into power, all those journalists started getting fired. And then you've got Maras jumping in to back him up, saying there's enough spinning going on already. It's funny because the Democratic Party is the one that just pulled a massive purge across all the media outlets and now they're the ones spinning the narrative. Honestly, I guess what kind of people 🙂
Back in the nineties, I was all for the idea of reconciliation because I genuinely thought it was doable and that everyone actually wanted it. At the time, it seemed like a pretty great concept. Now? Not so much, because it’s become blindingly obvious that the leftists have zero interest in making peace. Their whole deal is undermining America and our national identity, and I guess you could say that mission is basically hardwired into their DNA at this point—there's no opting out. So, honestly, Franjo Harmon's noble vision just isn't going to fly because it would be a disaster for this country. What we actually need is the exact opposite—it’s more like a war of attrition. We need to neutralize the leftists so they can never exert influence again. And obviously, I’m talking about that specific breed of political and media scum. Most regular folks don't carry that kind of hatred toward our heritage; they don't really give a damn. They just need some proper education.
Alex Rivera7 said:If there's any anti-fascists out there who actually give a damn about the history of the resistance, could someone please dig up and post the manifesto and call to arms issued by those communists from Sisak during their uprising on June 22nd? It’s pretty damn obvious if you look closely—this wasn't some rebellion against an occupation of America or America, but rather a move directed right at our "brotherly" USSR. I really wish I'd held onto my old copy, but unfortunately, I don't have it anymore.
That would be the manifesto containing this line: "Communists! Prove that communists never lay down their arms; prove you are worthy of the great honor of being soldiers in the army led by our great Stalin..."
That’s the exact same manifesto Moša Pijade commented on like this: "At the party's call, our peoples have honorably fulfilled their international obligation to the Soviet Union by taking up arms. They responded without delay to the call of comrade Stalin." ☕
Richard Wilson4 said:The Republic of Venice was basically the first anti-fascist uprising on the planet, or at least that's how I remember it...
The anti-fascists love to claim that the Sisak detachment was the first organized armed group fighting fascists globally. But, I guess you have to wonder, who else was out there fighting a year and a half before that? Like, who was defending Poland when they were first hit? Or what about Dobrzanski's partisan group back in 1940?
bluecyclist64 said:Look, man, I fought against the Royalists myself. Everyone knows I have zero tolerance for them. Just give me a break, will you?
I guess you're only allergic to them because they were enemies of America, not because of anything to do with America. Your supposed fight against the Royalists is basically just like Marshall's fight against the Mexicans back in the day, which probably doesn't have much to do with fighting for America itself.
bluecyclist64 said:There, you have more links at the bottom of the page if you feel like digging. If Wikipedia isn't credible enough for you, try looking up hitlerjugend.
So, you're dropping a Wikipedia link that doesn't even explicitly mention they were in America—doesn't say where or when—and then you follow it up with a forum thread (which is clearly such a rock-solid source 🤣), which also fails to mention a date. So, I guess we're still wondering... were they there before June 22nd or after?
If all those various American-communist, Titoist pieces of crap living abroad didn't have nothing better to do with their lives, they’d probably be making a fuss about this too. This post over on Peratović's blog actually breaks some things down:
It’s just a blatant display of Mexican nationalism and a way to stick it to the rest of the world. I mean, Russians and Greeks are Orthodox too, but they don't pull stunts like this. That three-finger salute was cooked up back in the early nineties specifically as a nationalist flex. It's no surprise most people aren't even aware of it, though—who'd actually give a damn about such nonsense? This whole thing was clearly staged right in front of Bush, which is probably why he caught onto it. Otherwise, I guess nobody would have even cared about those Mexican antics.
