When talking about Muslims fighting each other (I think we were talking about the Iran-Iraq war), he unprompted brought up how Christians have never fought each other.

:side-eye-1: Every country during WWII :side-eye-2:
The apocalyptic 30 years war has entered the chat, also the two popes, and Charlemagne, and WWI, and ...
Christians never fought each other.
Christians do nothing BUT war.
On Dcember 25th, 1914, German and French troops laid down their arms to celebrate.... uhh probably Halloween
The library in my hometown has a store where they sell donated or worn out books. It's partly as a fundraiser, but mostly as a way to get rid of the heaps of books they don't want. My brother is convinced that they're buying new books with taxpayer money to sell off for cheap so that the librarians can pocket the cash. He won't even step in the building anymore because of how angry it makes him. The books are being sold for like $1 apiece
That is a form of corruption for big projects. Buying a bunch of materials out of the product budget and then selling it off below market price since it's all profit for the corrupt official.
Especially common with fungible stuff like concrete, which is why sometimes bridges in corrupt countries will randomly just collapse.
Yeah dontchu know corpos like Disney and Amazon are communist.....Some of them chuds literally believe this.
Are the terms "right" and "left" even useful anymore? It seems like we're well past the point of ideological consistency now that we're firmly in the era of vibes.
I shop at Walmart instead of Target because it just feels more working class, y'know? But don't bother with K-Mart - that place is for tankies.
I've posted a few of these before lmao. Some are from my own brother.
-Cocomelon is Chinese mind control in order to install communism through inflicted ADHD and short attention spans.
-MSG is a Chinese plot in order to fatten all Americans and debilitate them to make a land invasion easier.
-Epstein was at Trump's party because Trump lured him into a trap but the plan was compromised. Turns out they were playing a dangerous cat and mouse game for a long time. Trump won but now he faces the New York Times. (This was explained to me in about a minute flat)
-CW: Mysogyny/Body Shaming
spoiler
Older Women have wider hips and love handles because they dont have the mental capacity to workout correctly. They need a man to squeeze the fat away???????????
-One of my brothers got chewed out by his girlfriend for not wiping his ass. He's a bigot of all flavors. I'm starting to think he's being the meme idk yet. The walls are thin please send aid.
-Soft men and gays are into astrology due to the feminine celestial alignments being only visible to those with low testosterone levels.
-My dad was into Art Bell in the 90s /2000s. I remember one day as a kid he was very very excited that there was a sound recording machine that was able to travel time and record Jesus dying on the cross. I learned the F slur that day because he got angry that the gays were happy Jesus died.
-My dad also gets irrationally angry that he cant walk down the street locking arms/shoulders(Like a half hug) with his brother anymore without being called gay. He's used this anecote for most of his life when we argue. Starting to think this actually happened to him :(
-Squatters deserve the electric chair (this person has never owned property and never will)
-My mother has a glint in her eyes when I talk about marxist ideas and random socialism shit. If I use any of those words explicitly she says I'm carrying water for The Cabal.
Is there a lot of lead in the water where you’re from?

I wasn't able to handle family like yours. I just left and no longer speak to them.
My dad once suggested that Bill Gates was buying up a bunch of land in preparation for leading a communist revolution.
While talking about Afghanistan, as usual I was the only person in the room insisting that we never should have invaded, and I got this one:
The problem with Afghanistan is that you can't do democracy over there. Only a third of them can read.
That doesn't mean you can't do a democracy. There have been democracies in countries with low literacy before.
People just vote for whoever their Islam cleric tells them to. They're too dumb to understand the issues.
Not being able to read doesn't mean you're dumb, it just means you were never taught.
What? Of course they're dumb if they can't read.
In hindsight the absolute level of projection from an American right winger about voting for the person your priest tells you to is funny, but I genuinely can't believe his refusal to understand a very simple point: that someone can be smart but never get taught how to read as a child.
Charitably, maybe they're having difficulty separating knowledge from intelligence.. or more likely :us-foreign-policy:
Regarding Afghanistan, one chud I know thinks the US lost to the Taliban because of "high civilian gun ownership", though from what I know legally buying them isn't how the Taliban gets their guns...
Libertarian guy who turns on the Taliban after finding out they got started with a government handout
libya was destroyed in order to spread hilary clinton's vision of girlboss feminism
“Cities only exist because of socialist policies”
“Seatbelt mandates stifle i n n o v a t i o n in car safety technology”
“Japan secretly won WWII and is running the United States out of a bunch of secret bases within the National Parks Service. There are Samurai controlled radio towers in Yellowstone, Alcatraz is their home base!”
this sounds like a cool alt-history comic book....
The year is A.D. 199x. Protagonist (me, obviously) riding a ww2 motorcycle with an shiba-inu wearing a helmet and goggles in a sidecar. We're drifting around a gravel bend, ripping down a forest service cut through a conservation area near Mark Twain National Forest, deep in the Ozarks. I am completely winding out the throttle as a fire tower 200 yards behind me explodes.
"Another Kempeitai outpost down. Who is the Shirobuta now, Satō-kun?"
The dog barks in agreement, tongue flapping in the wind.
Can I PLEASE be featured as a bit part in this story? Maybe like giving out missions or something? A corgi trying to work a pointer on a military map with stumpy lil paws sounds like a funny gag.
I'm picturing a corgi in an old bucket helmet with two stars on it, the straps undone working an old ham radio and making X's with a pencil in the mouth on a map, laid out on a short table at the nexus in some elaborate tunnel network that seems to have pop-up access hatches literally everywhere.
Atlantis was real, and an advanced society with flying saucers — and was where white people came from. Somewhere they had a link with the Nazis and gave them flying saucers.
And he referred to himself as "just a dumb n-word" compared to the 'superior Atlantis whites'.
It was also fleshed out (read: beaten to death) in the Illuminatus! books.
I'm reading them for the first time and they have not. I actually can't think of any Anglo literature from that era which has aged worse.
Of course, how could anyone forget that war was invented in 610, forever breaking Pax Pre-Islamica
Just spend any time around my extended family and you'll hear all sorts of conservative gibberish. I've been told the English royal family are leftists. I'll just list out a few things off the top of of my head: Catholics are a secret plot to drive down birthrates, all pets other than dogs make a person gay, cell phones were invented as a Satanic plot to allow white people to read non-white languages, chemtrails are real and spread gay chemicals, Trump was the only president who wasn't gay or secretly non-white, men who wear earrings are actually wearing a mind-control chip, white people are ordained in the Bible as mankind's protectors, universities should only teach business related classes, and others.
So some of my relatives are homeschooled and they have a set of textbooks with a completely alternate American history where the Confederacy still exists, but is more like a vassal state. I remember being with one of my cousins when I was a kid and he kept saying "the real president" about something. And so I asked him like, "Who, Bill Clinton?" That's who I thought he meant, but he shook his head and said some stupid southern name I don't remember, like Cletus Amos Beauford Something Something. We didn't interact much after that, I was deemed a bad influence.
The aunt who told me this would frequently mix up Catholics, Mormons, and simply Latino people in general. She's incoherent.
Some time around 2019, I tried to explain QAnon etc. to someone I know who proudly "doesn't follow news." I pointed out that the US has a large base of white supremacist and Dominionist people who have been successfully organizing for decades, and are disproportionately powerful as a result. I raised the concern that with something as unhinged as QAnon ballooning in popularity, white supremacists could have a realistic chance at seizing power.
Their reply: "Well that is scary, but not as scary as if Obama imports Muslims until America is a Muslim country."
And yes, I did ask whether they meant Obama when he was still president. They did not, apparently this is still an active threat in their eyes
Haha yeah that guy's crazy, ofcourse I won't, or uh, can't, do that.
:sweat:
The thought of someone having a harem of Morrowind NPCs is quite funny to me. They're barely human shaped, made of polygons, and have like 10 pixels to them. How do you get off to that?
