You can deal with 100 mile range on a touring bike? Sounds like you need a moped, not a goldwing.

Big talk for someone who also isn't about to throw their life away to take potshots at the local police station.

Government agitators: "God why are leftists such little babies! Oh you're not a little baby? You don't need a nappy? Well prove it! Commit a violent crime at a peaceful protest RIGHT NOW! Yeah, right into that camera. Great. That's perfect. Thank you."

Yeah that's not even current slang is it? My 50 year old coworkers were saying no mamas 10 years ago.

Napoleon enforced freedom of religion and emancipated the Protestants and Jews of France and in countries under his sway. He set up formal representative bodies that they could elect to interface with the government and settle matters of religious law.

Before the reforms, preaching in a protestant church was a capital offense.

Can we replace him with an actual Italian American instead?

Everyone still likes Frank Sinatra, right?

Spoken like a true bigot. Good luck with that 👍

A predictive model is only as accurate as it's underlying assumptions. Leftists are floundering on the Palestine issue because they don't actually want to understand the opposing side. They're just chasing the dopamine rush of feeling like they're right, always - kind of like religious fundamentalists.

Ok but Hitler was literally mentally ill. Could he have been rehabilitated? With the methods available at the time? The methods of today? Would that be just? Safe? How much do you trust the science?

It's not some crazy hypothetical. There are thousands of people walking around right now who have that same capacity and drive to do evil.

This gets parroted by left wingers a lot, but I've literally never met an American Christian who will come out and say this.

Have you?

Oh yeah how could I forget that after conspiring to help the Nazis exterminate the poles, the Russians turned around and conscripted millions of men from the countries they conquered (Poland, Ukraine, etc) and used them to fight off the Nazis that they allowed to invade in the first place! So heroic! So selfless!

As a Belarusian Jew, I can't wait to hear your revisionist version of my history!

My history book says Hitler (Nazism) and Stalin (Marxism-Leninism) invaded Poland together, which is widely considered to be what began the second world war.

What part of that statement do you take issue with?
