       @Nudhul @undu It hit me a long time ago that there was nothing really different between all those ideologies, and then I was finally able to articulate it.  Feudalism - Serfs & Lords.  The oldest form of government known to humanity.Marxist ideologies (Socialism, Communism, Fascism) are just modern versions of Feudalism.  Islam being an ancient version.They all share 3 core traits.  They're all Collectivist, Totalitarian, and Theocratic.  The modern feudal states forbid the worship of God and require you to worship the State.  For the Muslims, God is the State.The differences are really trivial.  They are irrelevant, because it all boils down to the core concepts.  You aren't free.  The State owns you or enough of your stuff that it essentially owns you.  If it can take your home and your food, then it owns you.They're all about power.The only system of governance that has bucked that trend is the US Constitution.  And now the Republic is shattered, but the brilliance of a federated system like our Constitution is that the power is devolving back to the states and we might yet reconstitute the federal apparatus.

       @slate_fistcrunch @HitterNeverQuitter Seems like the same "I'm a libertarian but really a leftist" asshat he's always been.  From my perspective.

       @AlabamaHokie @bufordk And he couldn't shut Fauci the fuck up.Then there was that one summer when he fiddled in the Middle East while America burned.

       @slate_fistcrunch @HitterNeverQuitter I think it's the same reason some people call themselves "Centrists".  You know, the center - that place halfway between Communism and the US Constitution.On account of the fact the Constitution is just too....extreme.  But Communism is also extreme.  So, somewhere between the two must lie the right balance.  Right?I think it's a term for people who are at the low end of the IQ bell curve to feel like they are the intellectual and moral superiors to people who actually know what they're talking about.

       @RevCyberTrucker My wife did that on her birthday one year and turned herself off to it.I never do shots.  And I don't drink the clear stuff.I just sip the yummy dark tequilas.

       @CSB I won't speculate on what Emperor Brandon should do.  Dictators are far above that sort of thing.

       https://alphanews.org/minneapolis-resident-speaks-out-on-constant-gunfire-i-cant-see-this-turning-around/When the BLM-Antifa riots were in full swing going into the election, I would open up Zillow and search for homes for sale in major cities like Minneapolis.It was wild to see how many homes had been dumped on the market in the last 30 days.  And how many had seen $30K, $50K, $80K price drops.  The closer you got to downtown, the worse it got.I used to feel bad for these people, but then I saw interviews where every one of them would say things like, "I support BLM.  I just can't take the violence."BLM = violence, you fucking mouthbreather.“They can’t control pirates taking over intersections, doing doughnuts in their cars, sometimes right outside the Park ‘Police’ building. The city is basically lost, and it’s only a matter of time before everyone figures that out, and at that point the last semblances of a functioning and safe society will be gone.”- Unnamed Minneapolis resident

       @ned I think countries that send invasions across the borders of other countries are evil.

       @eleutheromania @TwistedEagle From Boebert?  She's an attention whore, not someone who's about to buck the establishment.

       @bebe @PinochetsCommieCopter Neighborhood watch guy should've carried a pistol.  And he should have pulled early and shot often.

       @mcbuffalo Witzke, telling Americans whether or not they're allowed to have an opinion.  I knew I hated that attention-whoring establishment cunt for a reason.

       @obihahn Illegal drugs cut into taxes for the legal ones we already have.  Duh.When Democrats start making money off of human slaves again, then illegal aliens will be a serious problem for them.

       US GDP is officially adjusted to 0.0% growth.That means it's worse than that, Jim.  Much worse.  We're in a recession that will become very depressing before long.

       @echoteecat It depends on what your load is going to be.  Lord, my degree is in electronics engineering, but I can't tell you the last time I thought about circuit design.Let's say you have a device that needs 24 VDC to run, but your power supply is 60 VDC.  You need to divide that voltage down so you don't fry your device.Capacitors typically act as filters.  Capacitors are an open to DC current, but a short to AC current.There's probably a ton of free tutorials on the internet.
