If there is one crucial lesson to learn from Hungary, it is this:
You cannot defeat an authoritarian populist with a fragmented opposition.
If you want to win, you must swallow your pride and unite behind a single candidate

@AedricOisin @PoliceThePolic1 @GodandtheBear Also that would mean he didn’t verify his target, which is a big no-no for police snipers
English
The Missouri police sniper who mistakenly shot and killed a 2-year-old girl — and whose name has been masked by a lawsuit — is now a Missouri State Highway Patrol trooper.

@pierrelarsen @historigins Not necessarily, shrapnel and debris from blast can go long distances and hit people. Not to mention damaging/destroying street and buildings.

@CSlo87 @historigins Well, he would have blown up. That is all. That is the risk when you take a chance like that.

When a bomb squad was checking a suspicious backpack and this dude got fed up with waiting
English
@pierrelarsen @historigins You can’t interfere with police work, and if it would have been a real bomb it would have been disastrous
English
@historigins I wonder what they arrested him for?
Opening a backpack?
Making the police look overly cautious?
Why did they jump on him - could they not just have arrested him normally?
Afraid he would run away and open more backpacks?
there must be more to the story

My favorite part of this whole story is the Commie who burned down the warehouse wasn't even an employee of the company: he was a 3rd party contractor.
He took his own gripes out against a DIFFERENT company then the one paying him, and destroyed hundreds of good paying jobs!
Reddit Lies@reddit_lies
My favorite part of this is the interview they had with another worker who said he was upset because he was finally making a good wage.

@RareCamellia Too bad for Missouri residents like me that work in Illinois, that are now getting a substantial tax increase.
English
Illinois candidate thinks he has a say on whether Missouri should phase out the income tax lolz.
Andrew Cottingham for IL 112@Cottingham4Ind
If they abolish the income tax in Missouri, they will turn around and significantly raise the sales tax, which is regressive and will negatively impact the poor, working, and middle class the most. Instead, they should cut the income tax bottom-up for the poor, working, and middle class first; and cut state spending top-down for the government, corporations, politicians, and wealthy. The first $70k-$100k should be tax free for everyone. Also. End the sales tax on basic necessities such as food, medicine, health & hygiene products, infant products, etc.

@paulmoneymore @GigglingGanon police: get in the ground we’ll figure it out.
suspect: not getting on the ground.
what exactly do you call that?
English
Police in Columbus Ohio mess up bad when they arrested a real ATF agent.
This one of those videos that really make local PD look bad. The first officer arrived on the scene and immediately drew his firearm and started demanding the ATF officer to get on the ground.
Never gave him a chance to show his credentials, treated him like a criminal with zero chance to prove his innocence. clearly in the video it is seen he had his hands up with his paperwork in his hand. There was no need to demand on the ground and not give him a chance to identify himself.
They arrested him, put him in the back of a squad car and continued to mock him until they made contact with his supervisor.
This ended in a huge lawsuit that cost the tax payers of Columbus 1.6 million dollars over two incompetent cops that believe or not as of 2025 are still on the force doing God knows what other damage.

Sydney Sweeney is psyop.
She's barely mid. She has no hips. She's an idiot.
I'm tired of seeing people simping for her on my feed.

@krakrukro @tassoni15955 @ChicagosMayor However, it is their job to enforce the law and maintain order, which they frequently neglect when it comes to these “teen gatherings.”
English
@tassoni15955 @ChicagosMayor Who do you blame for the actions of 14 yr olds? Cmon now. The government is not a babysitter
English
Chicago, there are credible reports of a teen trend forming in Hyde Park later today.
Parents, be aware of where your children are going this evening. DO NOT allow your children to attend one of these gatherings; they are dangerous and can often turn violent.
Together we can keep our youth and our communities safe.
Chicago, IL 🇺🇸 English
@DissentFu So yeah as a city dweller I’ve noticed these “gatherings” are always accompanied by wrecks , injuries, vandalism, smash and grabs, and even shootings. If you want kids to be able to do things like this at all hours of the night they can’t frequently be doing criminal activity.
English
In America, kids are not allowed to be outside at night in large numbers because its too scary for the body armor clad, heavily armed police force.

@BladeofSpartan @MattisRedacted A prolonged blockade could starved or made them weaker for a second invasion
English
@MattisRedacted How?
The Nazis concluded that an invasion was infeasible after they lost the Battle of Britain
Could Britain alone have liberated Europe? Highly unlikely
But these islands would have stood firm and free for as long as we were willing to fight
English
The British military fought valiantly.
They still would have eventually lost without America’s entry into the war.
Armchair Admiral 🇬🇧@ArmchairAdml
The main reason Britain is not speaking German is the RAF, Royal Navy and British Army. The Army held off the Germans and made it out of Dunkirk, the Navy was far stronger than Germany’s, and the RAF won the Battle of Britain. Wish we’d stop with this bullshit.
