We already know these wannabes love to false flag themselves. Several times in the last few weeks they’ve been caught lying about being threatened, assaulted, hit and dragged by cars, etc, only to be disproven by video. So until we have something more concrete than a couple anonymous feds saying that some guy fired shots at them out of a car and then disappeared, I’ll be assuming they just made this shit up.
It’s a pilot program, like how they tried one free bus per borough. Easier to get past your opposition, and you gather data on if expanding to a program with real impact makes sense. And it makes sense that they don’t want to spoil or reveal how big this might get if it starts working, because that’s just handing ammo to your opposition. It’s exactly how thing like this ought to be done, slowly and scientifically, and in a way that is not so immediately threatening to the status quo that it will get squashed before we can see if it works or not as a solution.
Well yeah, 10 minutes without water can definitely be lethal under the right circumstances too if you are already only 10 minutes away from dying from dehydration. I’m just saying that lying mostly still in a sunless ravine in autumn in France for 72 hours, while it’s raining, is not peak conditions for quick death from dehydration. And in any case, all I’m really saying is that claiming the guy survived by drinking the wine, meaning he would have otherwise died from dehydration, is not a supoortable conclusion and is just there to make the headline more fun.
I think republicans don’t care at all what the majority thinks. They understand fully that our Federal system is rigged from top to bottom to give rural landowners disproportional voting power. So you can just lie your ass off to the 30% of your base that is ride-or-die, and as long as that 30% happens to live in the right areas of the right swing states nothing else matters.
I feel like three days isn’t enough time to die from the absence of wine, but then again I’m not French.
It’s just funny the way the headline is written. I’m assuming they meant more along the lines of “survives 3 days while drinking wine” not “survives 3 days by drinking wine” lol because unless you are starting out extremely dehydrated already, then a 3-day dry fast is absolutely not going to kill you.
Bring back the ATC union!
That’s weird, because libertarians hate handouts, welfare, regulations, and the Fed in general. All things which Trump is doing a fantastic job of burning down so him and his buddies can loot the corpse of our dying empire. Seem like the libertarian dream actually, where all that matters is how much can you snag for yourself before someone else does. If you can’t compete in an open free market, then just kindly die and reduce the surplus population.
