That's true, Dale never died. He was kidnapped by the USDA because he stole a bunch of GMO seeds from Monsanto. They were seeds for a special type of potato that contains nicotine. I heard they took him to that big underwater dome off the coast of British Columbia, and faked his death.

 

The whole manual is just full of contradictory stuff. It's a red flag from Ur Fascism, like how syncretic ideologies are always contradictory

A lot of people try to get refugee status in the US, but the CBP puts them in open-air prisons in the desert. There are also are least 16 million undocumented immigrants living in the US. They don't all have to "sneak", they just overstay their visas.

The CBP was commissioned explicitly to enforce racial "hygiene" in the US. I don't understand how they weren't disbanded decades ago.

I'm cool with everything you said, except the gun control part. Felons are disproportionately POC because of our racist police and courts. POC will be disarmed disproportionately. Now, if we do some blanket amnesty, mass decarceration, and defund, disband, or disarm the police, then maybe gun control won't be enforced in a racist way. But in a country where literal white supremacist gangs run massive police forces, like the LASD, gun control will be weaponized against minorities. Also, gun control is classist and ableist.

 
 

I heard about the vodka ban listening to Mike Duncan, and about how it was aimed at poor people. The temperance laws in Maine were also just for the poors. It got me thinking that drug prohibition is always to fuck over poor people. But then i remembered most laws are to fuck over poor people

 
 
 
 

Whiggish historiography sucks, too. It's weird that so many people believe in it, even though it was obselete in the 70s

 

Dick Warlock is an objectively rad name

I remember when a 6 foot bed was considered "wimpy"-- not a work truck. Now they all have them. It's weird that trucks weight 8k pounds now. They haul more stuff, though. You used to have to modify a truck to tow more, with bigger brakes, and maybe a turbo. Campers sure are big now. ATVs are all side-by-sides now, so they're almost as big as a car. So maybe rich people need bigger trucks for their bigger toys, but I think the chicken came before the egg.
