In other news

In other news

In the current news climate we see that some figures and events tend to dominate the front-pages heavily. Still, there are important, interesting or just plain weird things happening out there and a group of people can find these better than one.

I thought I would test with a thread for linking general news articles about "other news" and discussion. Perhaps it goes into the abyss that is page 2 and beyond, but it is worth a try.

Some guidelines:
- Try to find the "clean link", so that links to the news site directly and not a social media site. Avoid "amp-links" (google).
- Write some cliff notes on what it is about, especially if it is a video.
- It's not an excuse to make outlandish claims via proxy or link extremist content.
- If it's an editorial or opinion piece, it is polite to mark it as such.
- Note the language if it is not in English.
- There is no demand that such things be posted here, if you think a piece merits its own thread, then make one.

Who was that one guy who said rather than ridicule MAGA posters or MAGA people in general we should try to understand them?

I didn't see the post, but yes, we should. If you inquire honestly, you will gain insight and realize they're not all awful people.

Yes, absolutely 100%. MTG's statement on weather modification wasn't a fantasy and I would absolutely believe real people, who have real social media accounts with many friends/followers light years more than this current administration who's been lying through their teeth since day one, but that's just me.

Who knew that the current administration and real people, who have real social media accounts with many friends/followers were mutually exclusive?

Ok, very good. So what do you think she means by taking equity into consideration when distributing resources?

Give it to the poor folks, people of color and women first

by d2_e4 k

Did she say "people of colour" or "poor people, which are predominantly people of colour"? Do you understand the difference between these statements?

She said both and when asked woman too


Equity includes poor rural folks too lol exactly what people are complaining about

I do think DEI is cringe though


I saw some posts that FEMA would not rescue folks pets they had to leave them behind.

Not sure if its true but I wouldn't leave mind behind . I thought they passed some law after Katrina that requires them too


Hey PB , beside MTG being a total nutcase , if what she says it’s true about weather control
(probably be a top secret capabilities btw so she should be put in jail making it public ? ) , why not use that capability on Russia for ending the war in Ukraine instead?
Or on China preventing the need to put tariffs on Americans ?

Yes better use it on Americans instead of the ennemies of the Americans ?
« The eat the dogs , they eat the cats …. »

I suspected the next step for mtg is trump is actually the messiah and Kamala Satan …


Catch 22 if they put her in jail for making it public they'd have to make it public themselves

So Trump had this information but he’s not confirming it? Is Trump part of the deep state too? Why didn’t he declassify the jewish space laser dossier?

Man you're bad at reading

Well no, the logical conclusion of this conspiracy must be that Trump covered up a bunch of deep state info when he was in office. Or he was too incompetent and uncurious I guess, but then he will just be manipulated into deep state mind control either way.

Might as well not vote.

I don't think your 5 word posts are worth anything but a troll so that's probably why you think I'm not making sense

We can't all live up to the exquisite standard that you have set for the forum, sir.


Joe Byden had a press conference this evening just so he can blabber out MTG is lying about weather modification.

Turns out you were the liar Old Joe

So playbig u believe the U.S. have a weather weapon to solely use on Americans citizens but not on their ennemies ?


Playbig, have you heard the conspiracy theory about how burning fossil fuels causes carbon dioxide build-ups in the atmosphere, which in turn prevents the Earth from radiating away as much heat as before and this causes changes in weather patterns, including more frequent and severe hurricanes? It's a pretty crazy one, you should check it out.


Serious question I ask to any trump supporter who isn’t PB: if a single person dies from Milton because they believe trump and the acolytes complete and total lies about FEMA, do you hold trump responsible?

As responsible as you hold Biden every time an undocumented immigrant kill someone.


Answer the question without a whataboutism

I think my analogy served just find to demonstrate how absurd the question was.


Lol you ****ing coward

But yep. Guess I need to devote time understanding how you think and emphasizing with you don’t I


Trump: illegals are eating the cats and dogs and killing all of en masse

Us: ya that’s a lie

Trump: FEMA is trying to kill you and save the illegals

Us: ya that’s a lie

MAGA: ANSWER FOR THE CATS AND DOGS THO


So I am going to go ahead and mark you down as not holding Biden responsible every time an undocumented immigrant kills someone.

Trump is not held to the same standards of a normal presidential candidate or often times just an adult.
