  1. Is that you still crying about how unfair your ban was, or the face you made because you just realised how badly you've been had? If the latter, glad I could help!
  2. It's cult-like when there's nothing the leader can do that's wrong. The republicans ut huge amounts of effort into stirring up anger over supposed pay-to-play at the Clinton Foundation (with zero direct evidence of anything actually happening), and ultimately were successful in driving large numbers of voters to Trump. His promise to be completely above the dirty world of campaign finance was a huge part of his first win. Now Elon Musk has, loudly and openly, paid his way into Trump's inner circle and been rewarded with a position that will give him huge influence over government spending on his and his competitor's companies and the supporters say it's exactly what they always wanted Trump to do.
  3. Remember when the best thing about Trump was that his government wouldn't be beholden to rich campaign donors? Now the best thing about Trump is that his government will be run by rich campaign donors! It really all makes sense if you just look at it sideways and squint a bit. Not like a cult at all.
  4. It would seem that electing authoritarian Presidents who have a habit of praising strongman leaders and despots can indeed have consequences.
  5. And Trump just made that same criminal scumbag Charles Kushner the ambassador to France - one of the absolute prime cushy socialite reward posts out there. Hunter’s pardon sucks, but Republicans are literally not allowed to be angry about it. They’ve just elected an man who campaigned on the principle of doing the exact same thing, wholesale.
  6. Absolutely not - but when you’re arguing that people who turn up to white supremacist events, march alongside KKK members and swastika carriers and are passionate about defending the relics of slavery are very fine people, you’re basically trolling yourself.
  7. Again, hilarious! I think that people who turned up to a white supremacist rally dedicated to celebrating slavery are vanishingly unlikely to be very fine people. That’s a very straightforward opinion. You want to split hairs and get into the granular detail of just maybe some people didn’t know it was white supremacist, maybe didn’t know the statues were of slavery defenders, maybe didn’t see the Klan members and Swastikas they were marching next to and so if you make all of those hair-splitting assumptions then Trump was actually right to say what he did! Bullshit. You know the truth, your ideology just won’t let you admit it. That surprises exactly no-one. You seem incredibly determined to defend him doing the exact thing you just said you don’t respect. At this rate I guess if he had actually said ‘yes I do mean the white power guys are very fine people!’ you’d have a poster of him on your wall and a shrine on the mantelpiece.
  8. That link is hilarious, and it's hilarious that you would present it as if it should be taken seriously. By calling them very fine people. Again, that's hilarious. Did you read the whole quote? We've already established you have serious difficulty understanding speeches. These people turned up to a rally dedicated to celebrating the heritage of slavery, a rally 100% organised by white supremacists, they are still happy to join in and march alongside KKK members and swastika carriers when they are there, and Trump automatically assumes that they are very fine people, after one of them killed someone. Really you're just drawing more attantion to how despicable and disgusting the comment was.
  9. Right, if they get too good at promoting rascism they’ll put you out of business.
  10. Lol, your media told you Putin gave a speech declaring how dangerous Trump was to Russia and you still believe them despite having been shown the actual speech where he says the exact opposite!
  11. Trump said that people attending a rally dedicated to preserving the public celebration of men who fought to maintain slavery, which was organised by white supremacists, and who decided to continue taking part when their own side was clearly littered with actual swastikas, Klansmen and various other Neo-Nazi paraphernalia, were very fine people. You don’t think that’s fucking outrageous?
  12. But you already know that I already know it's a crazy tough job with mega long hours, whereas Phil thinks it's easy because your plane is easy. (I know he doesn;t really, but still.)
  13. Well I’ve flown 180 hours in one of those this year, I guess I’ll see who’s ready to strap me into a Martin-Baker and get the afterburners going!
  14. He’s not really fooled, he just doesn’t give a fuck and this is the easy get out clause. If you say thing X happened they’ll scream and shout that people only believe thing X because the media brainwashed them and people will believe anything they’re told. If you say thing Y happened they’ll say ha! People don’t believe thing Y happened so it didn’t happen because people are always smart enough to see the truth!
  15. Oh sure - if history teaches us anything it’s that cutting edge military tech procurement comes in on time and in budget.
  16. How many hours work do you think it takes to fly one hour?
  17. I think most fighter pilots would tell you they’d get laid a lot more if they didn’t have to spend so many hours at work. For all the shit they get for being a bunch of arrogant bastards it is a savagely demanding job.
  18. “Are” autonomous fighters? Please identify the currently operational autonomous fighters that can outperform a manned 4.5/5th gen fighter?
