I know some people who keep bees and absolutely none of that is true if you take care of them properly. Bees will try to fill the space they are in with honeycomb even if it is well in excess of what they need because they are anticipating that the colony will grow, but if you harvest regularly and consistently the colony will not grow larger than can be supported by the honeycomb that is left behind.

All these Silicon Valley tech bros have been reinventing religion over and over again for years while believing themselves secular rationalists.

Self-watering with the blood of tyrants.

This entire smear campaign is just an attempt at assigning guilt-by-association to progressives. A full-throated condemnation of Hasan Piker will only be taken as an admission of guilt for their prior association and the media will continue to use it as a line of attack, so it’s less than pointless to do so, it’s counterproductive because it would only alienate those who agree with Hasan while doing nothing to appease “moderates.”

Stop pretending you care about electability. It’s obvious you’re not doing this out of concern for Abdul’s chances of winning, but out of hatred for an online personality you have a weird parasocial vendetta against.

I keep tabs on political figures I don’t like as well. I don’t do it by watching their content regularly for years. Your online habits are abnormal and unhealthy.

I think you just outed yourself as a chronically online hate-watcher who should not be taken seriously. You realize it’s not normal to regularly watch content made by someone you hate for years, right?

The point is that you’re taking the bait set out by right-wing and Israel-backed smear campaigns and that you even care about Hasan wearing a Mao suit is a result of that. If Hillary came out and said free Palestine they would start non-stop accusing her of being a Chinese psy-op using her Mao suit preference as “evidence.” Most of the things listed in the last paragraph of your post are false such as Hasan denying the Uyghur genocide, supporting the invasion of Tibet, and lying about LGBTQ rights in China. You only believe these things about him because you have accepted the mainstream media lies about him at face value and refuse to think for yourself. As for the Houthis, characterizing them as terrorists and considering someone a terrorist supporter for reacting to their propaganda is hypocritical if you don’t apply the same logic to those reacting to US or Israeli military propaganda because they are also terrorists (and much more prolific ones at that).

None of you clowns care about Hillary Clinton wearing Mao suits, but act like it’s a problem when Hasan wears one.

Intelligent people have an easier time convincing themselves of falsehoods because they can produce more complex rationalizations.

Those positions are racist, just not overtly so.

Thomas Paine is the only one I could tolerate hanging out with. The rest are getting pushed back into the time machine and sent to the Devonian period.

The Vietnam war began with majority support and slowly became unpopular over time. The Iran war started with the majority opposing it, and is the first war where that’s happened in US history. It’s a very different political climate from the Vietnam war era.

I think you’re underestimating how gen Z would respond to a draft. There has been no generation in US history less supportive of war. I think a significant number of gen Z would gladly turn their weapons on the general that asks them to commit war crimes without hesitation, and that’s if they even manage to drag us kicking and screaming to the front.

Why would he need to dumpster dive when there’s an abundance of roadkill to be found on his daily commute?

I fucking dare you to try it bitch. The backlash would be legendary.

If you contribute to making it happen you won’t need anyone to clue you in when it does.

How the fuck do people don’t get radical or depressed?

Leaning into the former and channeling it into real world action with a community helps with the latter.

You have friends that have made a therapeutic ritual out of using essential oils which helps them only because the placebo effect can be very powerful for pain. Literally anything could stand in for the essential oils. Swap their oil vials out with convincing fakes and they’ll never know the difference because it’s the ritual of smelling and/or applying the oils that’s helping them, not any real physical mechanism of the compounds in the oils interacting with their biology.

Looks like an American suburb but without yard space.

This is the logic behind conversion therapy and they actually do this (albeit with the addition of electric shocks and all sorts of abuse).
