If we have agreed to host them because they are applying for asylum, and we won't allow them to work, then how ... do these people see them sleeping and eating?

Not advocating for it, but I suspect in the minds of its proponents the other half of this initiatives is refusal to accept any asylum seekers into the country at all.

Either that or they wish asylum seekers to starve to death so they don't come.

Could be wrong, I avoid the Faragists like the plague

Other nations wouldn't invade. But in the event of a civil war, you can be certain they would be sending in plenty of heavy weaponry.

The US has more military equipment and munitions than the next 5 ranked countries put together - why on earth would there be a need to send weapons ?

Secondly who would be sending weapons ? Russia needs to finish their own war before they could send help to Trump (who will probably have the bulk of the reserves initially), China is unlikely to want to side with either faction, although I'm sure they'd be happy to sell "consumer" Mavic drones to both sides (a la Ukraine).

The remaining western democracies have barely enough capacity to keep Ukraine afloat, although they would side with a pro-democracy anti-Trump faction if it garnered enough support to have a chance but with the massive stockpiles in the US being 100x what the rest of the west has it would be like pissing in the ocean.

In the event of a civil war pro-democracy Americans need to bring military commanders on side so they can utilise existing US stocks - you have the biggest ammo and weapons dumps in the world.

Most ICE sports bike for the last 20-30 years have easily been able to do those acceleration times. Ie 1998 R1 0-60mph (97km/h) 2.96 s. 0-100mph(160k) 5.93s top speed 168/270k {MC Consumer news via wikipedia)

Which is not to say the zero isn't a cool bike but EV bikes struggle to match ICE, unlike cars where they absolutely toast ICE

True, and the crusade in 1400AD odd was because the Ottomans invaded the Eastern Holy Roman Empire... Plus ça change plus c'est la meme chose

Or the desire, who the hell would want to try a hostile occupation of the US ?

Uggh. I can work out whether to upvote you for the accurate summary of the source of law & state power or downvote you for the utter idiocy of the invasion statement.

Russia can't - they're struggling to take over a country a fifth their size and have burnt through their Soviet stockpiles.

UK & EU certainly won't invade, at most they'd send a peacekeeping force to protect civilians at a UN request (UN probably wouldnt pass it)

Canada will be stretched just keeping fighting out of its borders.

Mexico might just on principle (payback's a removed) but has bugger all capacity.

Same for South American Asian and African countries.

That leaves China, and if you think the Chinese are stupid enough to insert themselves in your civil war and create a sole enemy for both sides to fight you have zero understanding of the Chinese strategy.

The Chinese will wait for you all to decimate the country and each other, then come in and buy up the bits they want. Oh and invade Taiwan while y'all are busy destroying your country.

Putin's plan to destroy the US has worked magnificently.

He's a seriously bad negotiator and poor businessman, he's going to a Ferenghi hell, those are major sins

As usual with MAGA every accusation is a confession.

Jesus fucking christ they’re gonna try to do another fucking crusade in the modern day.

Gulf War 1

Gulf War 2

Bombing Yemen

Etc etc

Modern day Crusades has been going on for nigh 3 decades.

Lots of people don't know the US has turned fascist I guess

 

Aukus had a less than immaculate conception. It was conceived in secrecy and born in haste, a tribute to political opportunism and a travesty of disciplined planning. The enthusiasm of theatrical announcements notwithstanding, it was in trouble from the beginning. The US Navy had serious doubts about both the ability of US shipbuilders to deliver submarines in any workable timeframe and the ability of the Royal Australian Navy to integrate and operate them. That was not a question of trust but of capacity – on both sides.

And, of course, experienced and well-informed Australian defence planners rang the warning bells from the beginning.

 

Hey all, I know a lot of people are migrating to private torrent sites, and OK, that's a choice. However there are still a lot of people on the public torrents who are just leeching and not seeding.

I have several popular (old/classic) movies in my feed that I have uploaded (literally) 1000x the original and many more in the several hundred times. That's fine, I choose to support the community, but it's pretty depressing when I look at the seeders count and those movies have 2 or 3 other seeders.

This only works if you share. Please don't cut off as soon as you've downloaded.

And on a personal note, if anyone has audio or video files for "Machine Gun Fellatio" also listed as MGF could you please start seeding in particular

"MGF Pack 1"

"MGF+Pack+2"

"MGF+Pack+3"

If I can get the download completed I'll keep them up permanently, but unfortunately as they are obscure/rare I'm getting nowhere.

Rules don't permit me showing the torrent link of course. DM if that would help
