Pinpoint exactly how he tried to remain in power.

He tried to get a mob to murder his own vice president.

We were there. It was not too long ago. We remember.

The fact that he’s crap at seizing power doesn’t mean he should get away with it. In fact, guess what usually happens to failed golpistas.

Nobody means “universal direct democracy” when they say “democracy”. Not the ancient Athenians, not the Swiss, nobody.

This is a very disingenuous talking point.

The same stupid sound bites we get around here all the time from the tankies, putting to rest once and for all whose hand is up the puppet’s ass.

Did someone piss in your tea or something?

Or do you just enjoy trying to make everyone feel as miserable as you do?

Asserting it doesn’t make it so.

It’s barely an “alien” film, but the cinematography alone is stellar.

I really really like alien 3. It was not what we expected at the time, but it’s a great film in its own right.

We need copyright reform. Life of author plus 70 for everything is just nuts.

This is not an AI problem. This is a companies literally owning our culture problem.
