Rule number one. Don’t fuck with Mexicans. Viva Mexico cabrones!!!

Right. Like how many times do we read something off the wall and we can’t even tell if it’s satire or legitimate reporting anymore because absolutely any level of madness is possible.

Recent examples are this whole “President Trump to rebrand Defense Department to Department of War” sounds like a SNL skit setup or “Trump moves Space Command HQ to AL, citing CO mail-in voting” sounds like the onion. There are better examples, but it’s just like every day some new crazy thing. It’s good to stay skeptical because it really is hard to be sure of anything one way or another.

It is a restricted airspace so someone ordered it. That being said, there’s a chance it was a flyover for the Polish pilot who crashed and died while practicing for an airshow.

But, keep in mind, it doesn’t have to be Trump personally. He’s not the only person in a position of power with a vested interest to make those women disappear. Plenty of influential scum bags to go around. And once the names are released, regardless of who releases them, blackmail is a lot harder to leverage. And the people leveraging it are not the idiots Trump and his quasi reality tv goons are. They’re more than capable of pulling strings, making “suggestions” and planning ahead. Trump isn’t hard to fool nor drive. The biggest difficulty with him is anyone can steer him; keeping him under singular influence is the challenge.

I still can’t believe they did a military fly over to intimidate these women. I mean I believe it but I don’t believe it.

In his defense BLT is actually a deer caught in headlights.

Yup, that’ll do it.

Perhaps I’m misunderstanding something somewhere. The original post seems to be saying, “don’t assume just because we support buying European we support Israel/Zionism”.

Movements that lean towards buying local often have a political leaning as well, I know that’s often the case in the US anyway that they lean right-wing (but not always like many union workers who support buying domestically but lean left).

I think the post is, “yeah we support X movement but we also support Y. Don’t assume you’re welcome here with that bullshit.” Which we’re on Lemmy, so it makes perfect sense a “buy local” movement would not support Zionism and modern settler colonialism.

Because boycotts are a relevant and powerful tool and part of being a thoughtful consumer is being educated on the ethics of the companies you’re monetarily supporting. That would be my guess anyway.

I’m sorry to hear that happened to your friend. I had a family member who went through uncharacteristic and risk taking behavior before they ultimately passed from a brain tumor. It happens and it is very confusing for everyone involved. Especially since that person, a very accomplished (decorated officer) intelligent person (genius IQ) randomly started on hard drugs, which just confused the situation further. We got them away from that life just in time to get them a diagnosis. The strain and chaos with that type of illness can be devastating.

That being said, I think the number of women in this case, and the context clues, are sufficient that we can conclude that this guy isn’t innocent. We have multiple different testimonies and his own words about young girls and his own daughter to conclude he was involved in that lifestyle at a time when he was high on money, power and a circle that was judgment free. He ran pageants in the 90’s which just… ewww. Also, I mean who calls Epstein at 5am in the morning and leaves messages? Not exactly normal operating hours. If he wasn’t insulated with limousines and a real estate empire this guy would have been drug through the mud in any podunk town for being a total creep. No one would be questioning when word came out, they’d be saying, “oh yeah, that guy, I can see it”
