    The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM (2022)

    All the worst decisions in US history were bipartisan Centrism is the idea that if we get two different crazy people to compromise they'll come up with a good idea

    Guy is so funny. He's so absolutely hateable that I want to like him just to be contrarian. I just can't do it. Gotta respect the guy for making a career out of literally just eating food on camera and going "oh man, WOW, man that is SO GOOD" even if he does frost his hair

    If every time someone posts a trade without very easily falsified "proof", they are in danger of a week long thread ban... that just says "don't bother ever posting trades". I don't see how anything is better by saying "SQQQ might be a shot here". Did somebody believe Mist actually dropped...

    Its kinda funny, I mean whos gonna care enough to bother screenshotting and cropping to post "proof" that would be trivial to falsify anyway? Is the thread somehow better when we all say "this stock may be worth looking at, but this is not investing advice?" instead of "I bought this stock...

    Absolutely, we don't have to look any farther than Never Trump republicans for proof of this This guy didnt just say the right things on conservative goals, he actually got shit done. In a way most of us have never seen from a politician in our lifetimes. But if he runs again their is a non...

    After arguing with leftists on this same forum for a couple decades, after having to read fucking 10 years of posters here fellating Obama... the purity tests are especially hilarious. Oh shes not conservative enough? You mean like someone who voted for Obama and advocated gay marriage, like...

    Havent watched, didnt read she-hulk comics (aside from her involvement in Avengers). The 4th wall breaks shit sounds dumb but it seems like some viewers liked it. Question for you. I always liked how with Deadpool they had an in-universe explanation for his thing. He went crazy as part of his...

    The Netflix Thread

    This is reminding me a lot of my dad in the 80s when my friends had cable TV and we didn't; "if you're paying for cable why do you still have to watch commercials?" I mean, he wasnt wrong, and I guess in a way these complaints arent wrong, but yeah, thats not how any of this works.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I don't know the politics of the Fed, but until early summer or so, it was firm leftist political dogma that there was no inflation. Zero. I got in so much trouble with them any time I'd mention it. In the political bullshit world they were still saying that price increases werent inflation...

    Dune: Prophecy

    I'm probably the biggest Herbert fan I've ever met. Its very difficult for me to say anything bad about that series. Almost everything is colored so strongly by nostalgia for me that its hard to find faults. With that said, the "we're so good at sex its a superpower" shit Frank Herbert wrote...

    Putting aside any economic theories - anyone who thinks poor fat people are gonna eat less when food prices go up doesnt know any poor people, or any fat people. I agree with the statement that >80% of Americans should probably eat 50% less, I'm just saying food prices aren't ever gonna make...

    I still don't get that "advantage" since the hair color already made it crystal clear they were bastards, but I'll give them this, they are at least using the out of nowhere black Valeryans in a way that is consistent with, and for some viewers enhances, the existing story instead of taking away...

    I really hate this new meme, how Christians somehow have to apologize to degenerates for not approving of their degeneracy. Literally everyone on the planet is disgusted by gay men. Left, right, male, female, it doesnt matter. We all think you're fucking gross, gay dudes. Sorry, its just the...

    I'm probably wrong, but I couldnt resist. I'm back in, TQQQ/SPXL/SOXL at these prices, I can't say no. Maybe I should have, but I didn't. Market, you have my permission to do another one of those retarded no-reason-for it rallies again.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Consistently, the last moment of each episode is the worst. They keep doing these absolutely retarded last second "reveals", and horribly. This show would be far better if they cut the last 10-20 second from each episode.

    I'm gonna have to confess I had no idea they flapped in the comics because of the lack of animation.

    Are the prices of ETFs based only on the price of the underlying asset (index or commodity), only on buying & selling of the ETF itself, or both? The reason I ask is that it seems to me ETFs don't perfectly track the performance of the assets they're based on, in some cases just a time lag but...
