  • In a troubling sign of how the xenophobia at play here may be yoked to the powers of the federal government in a Trump II presidency, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH, ironically) insisted on continuing to call the Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio “illegal aliens” even though they are legal immigrants.

    When confronted by a questioner about the Haitians being in the country legally, Vance played to the crowd and, with stubborn grandiosity, stuck to his false claim denying them their legal status:

    Btw this is why they call everything they oppose a slippery slope: because it’s what they want to do with their policies, and they project that’s what other people want to do too.


  • Seriously?

    1. Fiivemacs asked about why no gloves.

    2. I said because they are useless, with the context that they would be useless when a fucking bomb goes off. Useless against a bomb. Because that’s what the post is about. A bomb. JFC. In addition the small side point is you need the fine motor control to diffuse a bomb. A bomb. Because that’s what the fucking thread is about.

    3. Fiivemacs brings up a kitchen. A kitchen. Where 99.9% of glove use is sanitary. JFC.

    4. And I responded wtf are you bringing up sanitary kitchen use (yes he brought it up, because 99.9% of kitchen use is sanitary) when the discussion is about gloves not helping when a fucking bomb goes off. JFC. Because that’s what this was about, gloves not protecting when a fucking bomb goes off.

    Like JFC. 95% of the point was because gloves are no help when a fucking bomb goes off. The 5% side point was you also need dexterity. If he wants to talk about the 5% side point, and then talk about kitchen where 99.9% of glove use is sanitary, then he needs to be crystal clear that no he’s talking about the 5% side point, and then talking about the 0.1% side point of that which is not about sanitary, because 99.9% of glove use on the kitchen is for fucking sanitary.

    JFC. Why do I bother with this. Have at your next misreading and attack, I’m out.

    *And you doubled down on talking about sanitary for some fucking reason. AFTER I said “Gloves will not protect you from a bomb”. Because that’s what this was about “Gloves will not protect you from a bomb”. Holy fucking JFC. I’m out.
