  • From what example are you making those statements?

    The ussr, china… has always ever been state capitalist! China isn’t even claiming to be communist anymore! Its goal is to vaguely work for socialism now

  • What is jury nullification and what does it mean for Luigi Mangione’s defense? | CNN
  • I am going to cross fingers for it, but wouldn’t the state just resue in a higher court?

    I really don’t think that even a dem controlled supreme court would allow it, but a republican one? We will be lucky if Luigi isn’t yahoo-ed

  • Your Tea Bag Is Likely Releasing Billions of Microplastic Particles, According to a New Study
  • Possibly maybe! But you rlllllllllllly shouldn’t! You worrying gonna cause way way way more harm than a variable you absolutely have no control over!

    But good news, it has no effect short term whatsoever!Plus fun fact, it’s practically impossible to carry out long term experiments on us! Its just not a realistic expectation for someone to do something for decades that is expected to wildly shorten their lifetimes!

    But theoretically, as far as I understand by my ever limited understanding as a bioengineer, it kind of shouldn’t! The dangerous thingie about plastic that it releases unbound oxygen on high temperatures. Now if unbound oxygen gets exited, its gonna get the zoomies wrecking, among many less important things, your DNA and causing cancer! So eat antioxidants, like a ripe banana every day!

  • "I feel like I'm not being given a choice here."
  • Wowsies, your source is from 1914?!??

    Your source only levels criticism against him on a personal level? Some of which originates from the homophobia and sexism of the age of the doc, considering that voyerism and homosexuality used to be commonplace in rome!

    Besides abusing freeborn boys and sedu­cing married women…

    Some of which is kind of even funny

    He so prostituted his own chastity that after defiling almost every part of his body, he at last devised a kind of sick game, in which, covered with the skin of some wild animal, he was let loose from a cage and attacked the private parts of men and women…

    But for the sake of the argument, conceding all that; what effect would him being a dickbag in his personal life have on his emperorship?

    It also has clearly untrue statements! Claudius was killed by Agrippa!!!

    He began his career of parricide and murder with Claudius…

    It also seems to often cite itself as its own source multiple times?

  • "I feel like I'm not being given a choice here."
  • I would beg to differ

    The Christians Made Nero the Antichrist siemiradski nero torches great fire of rome Nero’s Torches, by Henryk Siemiradzki, 1876. Source: The National Museum, Krakow

    While Nero was not personally responsible for the disaster, the Great Fire of Rome destroyed much of the city, leaving many homeless and angry. Nero’s enthusiasm for his lavish Golden House did not help. Thus, the emperor had to divert the attention and find a scapegoat. The answer was a relatively unknown sect that worshipped one God and stirred trouble in the capital – the Christians. According to Tacitus, the Roman authorities rounded the members of the sect, punishing them in the cruelest ways possible, from throwing them to the beasts in the amphitheater to turning them into human torches that illuminated the night.

    However, it seems that the extent of Nero’s persecutions was exaggerated by early Christian historians, who found a long-deceased and already reviled pagan ruler an easy target.

  • I really really hope that won’t be happening, there is just no way you could fight off the military in an armed uprising! Though it would be funny if the republicans banned guns, after throwing a continuous hissy fit for it in the last many decades…

  • "I feel like I'm not being given a choice here."
  • He was actually a super-super popular emperor, even after his dead they prayed for his return. While we can’t say for certain whether he was behind the fire of rome ( ad 64), if he was that kind of sociopath that wants burn everything that he would not have paid for the complete reconstruction of it! He even ordered the roads to be built to wide that 3 fire fighter carts (?) can fit next to each other so that this catastrophe may never repeat again!

    So why is he remembered as an incompetent, retarded dickback? He prosecuted Christians in his reign

  • Elon Musk’s Boring Company Is Tunneling Beneath Las Vegas With Little Oversight
  • Whatchu mean?

    You really can’t dig an industrial tunnel without a fuck ton of engineers; not that he would personally ever go there aside from opening it, no?

    I beleive (won’t read the article) the governmental oversight will really lack from where the route will be laid, but it really shouldn’t be that hard to figure out from where to ppl wanna go, should it?

  • Texas book ban law causes a school district to remove Bible from libraries
  • As a society, we do?

    In hungary and slovakia christian churches are state subsidized aside from the tax exemption they get! And in primary school parents can make the decision whether they want their kids to attend ethics or religious class (which means the local flavor of Christianity). In the US (florida, tampa) there was an afterschool bible study in high school! Could you imagine islam to do any of those?

    I have not studied in any other country, but I dare make the assumption that other countries on the northern hemisphere, maybe even latin america is ought to be similar!
