Not all “elephant experience” parks are the same. Some only have rescue animals, don’t use them for “shows”, segregate male animals from guests, and only allow interaction on the animal’s terms.

Similar to the difference between an accredited zoo and Joe Exotic.

My opinion of anti-theists in general is that they’re like “fat hate”, just basic bigots who think they found a loophole. In anti-theist spaces for example, Islamophobia isn’t tolerated, it’s enforced.

Dawkins was always a public bigot. It’s no wonder he talks just like American conservative Christian, he’s been in bed with them for years.

Because I’m not allowed to read the article to know if this is mentioned: a big reason why this would aggravate Wukong fans is that Nintendo is a Japanese company.

You can’t reason with racism. They believe he was essentially an Arab, and that is the source of his violence. Also, his race makes him unworthy to attack white Christians no matter how “righteous” the motive.

It’s kinda like the Daniel Penny vs. Luigi Mangioni dynamic. Murder is not wrong per se, just who has station and authority to kill whom.

This article’s reasoning is faith based. The cornerstone assumption is that industry profits and layoffs obey the preferences of the market.

To those who follow the industry, this is demonstrably false. What follows is the lack of awareness on full display:

and even though Spider-Man 2 sold more than 11 million copies, several members of Insomniac lost their jobs when Sony announced 900 layoffs in February.

This is like when you get the right answer using the wrong formula

This is like a soup joint that’s trying to see how much they can piss in the broth before customers notice.

Reminder: this is the same Teamster that spoke at the Republican convention, making these comments to Tucker Carlson.

You probably shouldn’t take this at face value and assume this was her attitude toward labor in general.

during the Bush era and it was from US media sources

Your being defensive. Yes, the misinfo campaign is that old, and yes plenty of Western journalists have repeated the talking points.

I mean, Musk isn’t totally wrong, the F-35 isn’t all we’d hoped for. It had a well documented history of cost over-runs, problems in development, and failing the way all multi-tools do, they generally don’t do as good of a job as specific tool

Your views hew ridiculously close to talking point that heavily associated with Russian state media. Please don’t be offended, this isn’t an insult It’s an FYI.

Ask yourself: how does the F-35 (in cost overruns, accidents, re-designs, ect…) compare to other fighter jets developed by the US and her allies? If you don’t know, wonder how you only bumped into info that paints the project in a bad light. Who benefits from the F35 being perceived as a boondoggle?

Youtuber Lazerpig addresses all of this directly and with sources if your interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxVsS9ZNUOU

Oh come on. The strangeness of this story makes it credible.

Being surprised is an opportunity to examine your assumptions, not cosplay as Q.

Remember, when you hear liberals fretting about Kash Patel and Donald Trump’s vendetta against the FBI they’re not worried that the Feds are going to do injustice, they’re worried that they’re going to turn their injustice against bonified citizens like Liz Cheney.

Sure, Patel is going to cause innocents to suffer, that’s business as usual. But he’s also going to damage the FBI. At least in reputation. This is a very good thing.

I didn’t say it was for no reason, just that it isn’t smart.

A penalty phase will drag out the trial. If NYC was smart, they’d give him a sweetheart plea just to get this man out of the news cycle.

Browsing the comments, and there is another way this is dumb nobody has pointed out yet. Oil and gas are global commodities and Europe’s energy expenditures buoy the oil price identically whether they buy from the US or Saudi Arabia.

You should be able to do all that stuff with spreadsheets. Any program you use will be a spreadsheet under the hood anyhow.

The press coverage of these grifters getting excluded from campuses and venues is how they promote themselves. Candace is taking it global and frankly making fools of the Kiwis and and the Emus. (Australia barred her too)

states not run by fucking idiots

Don’t worry, it’s hard to travel from LA to a place not run by idiots. I know you can’t get there by car. You’re going to need at least an airplane, maybe a starship.
