My grandfather was the head of an intelligence agency back in the day (Rhodesia), and I know that humanitarian operations were frequently a cover for intelligence gathering. It’s also pretty well known/rumoured that USAID, Voice of America and similar are used by the US government/CIA to infuence foreign governments and spy. With how close to Russia Elon and Trump are I wonder how much of this overt interference in those areas are under the direction of Russia? I genuinely believe the US has sleep walked into a situation where a foreign power has covertly taken/taking control without military force.

No shit! My sister was telling me it could cure our uncle’s stage 4 cancer a week ago.

Not being a Tesla/space x follower, the Thai incident is the first time I noticed Musk, I’ve never liked him. I won’t deny he is good at making money, but dunning-Kruger and life experience tells me that someone who claims to be genius level at every aspect of physics and engineering is full of BS.

Yeah, and it’s s crappy attitude of putting likes over the feelings of others.

Animal cruelty and it’s both of the people involved. There’s a strong culture of respecting wildlife and leaving it be.

They are both facing animal cruelty charges. But Aussie takes a hardline on immigration. That only fans woman that came to do shows/ take virginity of lots of school leavers had her visa pulled and was deported (working on a tourist visa). At the moment being an influencer in Aus, you are in a vilified demographic and won’t get mercy, American on top certainly doesn’t help.

There’s been a huge outcry, but my favourite comment was from our Prime Minister. He said wombat’s are gentle creatures and that she should take a baby crocodile from its mother instead

It’s more the attitude that the rest of the west doesn’t have the freedom.

Yet you scream about dei? Do you not understand what dei is? Bias and prejudice are inherent in people, it’s almost biologically wired. It takes effort and education to override those instincts. The talking heads on the right would have you believe that simply being black or female means you’re incompetent and less than a white male. Your beliefs leak through in your posts and to quote Wendy “bullshit”.

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2013/apr/04/peoples-car-bernhard-rieger-review It’s insane the parallels between Germany’s history and current day US.

I agree with the sentiment expressed by everyone that snarky comments and labelling people is unhelpful. Biguns point about black and white thinking (psychology term, not race) is bad. The problem with your posts is that Trump/Musk can do anything and you shrug it off as “just …” and go onto to rationalise it is for the greater good, while making sure to mention that it’s better than Biden etc. I’m not sure how any American can support people who do nazi salutes, car sales from the Whitehouse, deliberate lies and deception, celebrate the pain of immigrants and the disadvantaged. the thread about white power in the US has many examples of where this administration has stepped well past the line of racist behaviour. If you honestly believe sexism and racism is bad, how come you’re not as vocal about this administration covering/removing the names of non white and female people who lost their lives fighting for your country? I forget the agency (NSA or CIA). A vast number of American citizens speak Spanish, yet it’s not racially driven that this administration has declared English the official language and removed Spanish language versions of important government websites? I’m sorry but your posts show no evidence that you’re against racism and sexism.

Yeah, absolute dickhead and alarm bells are going off all over civil and human rights watch organisations about the loss of freedom of speech in the US. Honestly, it irks me the arrogance and ignorance of everyone who claims that America is the beacon of freedom and democracy.

Once upon a time that would have been an Onion post

Who’s inspired to buy a swasticar? I’d pay to see Brent’s reaction to this :)

Maybe Brent was onto something;)

Well the US is in its way to being a theocracy. Surprised they aren’t using thoughts and prayers, or Jesus parables of investing wisely

Should say Trump’s second term ends … At this point there is enough insanity that the calls for a 3rd term or other “legal” extension aren’t impossible. At this point I’m hoping he chokes on a happy meal toy and we can get some sanity back in the US.

Thanks

What’s wrong with his comment? As far as being unidentified, when it comes to skydiving advice credibility is important. But in SC which is basically a bunch of us shooting the breeze and airing opinions I’ve got no problem. If you don’t remember the incident with phillykev, SC vindictive people can ruin your life.

What are the implications? I’ve seen a few news articles but nothing explained the logic behind it or the risks
