Basic_GnR_Fan Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Usually when someone says "do your own research" they never actually give you resources to start with. I'm going to start asking people "what are the last 3 non fiction books you read" when I get into my next in person political argument. I'm expecting lots of stammering 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to be fair, he's not calling for Goodyear to be banned from anything, he's trying to get people to boycott. President Trump said Tuesday he believes Goodyear Tire workers "will be able to get another good job," after he called for a boycott of the company following reports that an Ohio plant had banned his red "Make America Great Again" campaign hats. https://www.axios.com/trump-goodyear-workers-jobs-boycott-d10ee224-db8c-4033-8798-365e1540a595.html Sounds like he wants Goodyear to be canceled outright if employees need to find new jobs. 5 minutes ago, Basic_GnR_Fan said: Usually when someone says "do your own research" they never actually give you resources to start with.

It details the Chicago outfit's move to Los Angeles and how they came to have influence in things such as the tv and movie industry. Some interesting nuggets were how they got their hands on a lot of the confiscated wealth from interned Japanese during WWII. Also details how in bed Reagan was with them. There's also allegations that Reagan raped a woman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some unless factoid in my brain about how the mob killed beta videos because, though they were better quality, they were more expensive to make. And the power of the porn industry was enough to set the industry standard as VHS. Not all that different from what Steve Jobs did to music.

DieselDaisy Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) If that picture was in rebuttal to our conversation, at no stage were refugees (as a de jure status) mentioned! Nobody here has advocated being ''a knobhead'' (whatever that means?) to refugees. Edited August 22, 2020 by DieselDaisy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soon Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Maybe it was 8 year olds with no politics in mind. Maybe it was Pizzagaters. Maybe its a twisted minds artistic expression. Maybe the authorities will find a flock of dehydrated seagulls nearby... Maybe a touched Stan is mad at Vicky for the whole fight with the surviving members over unreleased recordings. Maybe it was a mourning parent who just lost a child to suicide and in their grief blame their child's hero for influencing the act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
