what distinguishes justice from revenge is justice is supposed to be tempered and measured and fair and impartial and neither biased or sympathetic
so basically something completely different from revenge

oh mai another copyright thread!!!!!
torrents are impossible to shut down
yeah ask the soviet union what happens when you get into an arms race with uncle sam
but something i find really funny is the mpaa and riaa get all this shit
THEY'RE DESTROYING FREEDOM OF SPEECH
i find FACEBOOK and GOOGLE to be far worse
the mpaa and riaa are just pushing the law
teh facebook & "don't be evil" google are gathering craploads of data and developing artificial intellegences to analyze it
analyze it all the way to the bank
but what if that crap was used for something other than targetting stupid ads?
you'll wish the government was restricting the flow of information
you'll wish

i wonder if this "if i think it's okay, it's okay to pirate something" can be extended beyond "i think it's okay = i think they are not making money from it"
maybe to "i think it's okay = they already have huge profit margins" or "they push political agendas i disagree with" or "it's too expensive for me"
cause that would be awesome

i think that is obvious
and implicit is the idea that if something is not obvious to some guy at a computer, then it does not count

It's the freetard mantra. "I want it, but I don't want to pay for it."
This abandonware argument is so much smoke screen, just like "OOOH! Copyright is too long, lets abolish it entirely!"

so about that ss thing
even if you knew, what are you going to do about it?
it seems to me that the pressures of loyalty and unit cohesion and stuff like that is a lot more than "hai guys u look like nazis"
"u calling me a nazi"
umm awkward

given the prevalence of gangs in the military i wouldn't be surprised if most or all of them were skinheads and/or white supremacists that wound up getting put in the same unit

Which is precisely the reason many gang members/supremacist groups/douchebag clubs whatever are enlisting.

It wouldn't be that difficult. You have to realize the guys they have infiltrating are the quintessential True Believers™. White Nationalists believe that there is a 'Racial Holy War' to destroy the 'white race' going on right this instance, a concerted conspiracy by every other minority to wipe out the 'white race'. They've also had a long time to do this, all it would take is for a select cadre of existing veterans to come in run the prospective infiltrators through a basic course to find out who they thought was most fit to make the cut and not give himself away. If you've got veterans training your guys how to do this stuff proficiently before they even enter and add in sufficient motivation to perform (no matter how wrong their reasoning may be), you've got a pretty good chance of getting your guys in. Add in that they've been at this for a couple decades they may have people working in the DoD, though that's venturing off into conspiracy theory area (which isn't wrong since technically the plan is a conspiracy in the first place )

Here's a good video on it in America. Skip to 11:10 mark as it's the most relevant detailing the threat the Department of Homeland Security feels right-wing domestic terrorists are and how undercover agents from the BATFE have personally witnessed people recruiting ex-Soldiers for the movement's purposes or having their infiltrators supply illicit military equipment to them.

well it's not that hard to believe there are actual nazis in the us military if the opinions on HPCA are shared by a not-insignificant part of it
indeed, you would expect the most nationalistic douchenozzles to willingly sign up to kill for ZE FATHERLAND

so in that abortion thread
at first my intent was simply to say "that's not a strong counter argument"
now i've ventured into "that's a morally wrong counter argument"
similarly not long ago i was like "dalton is a big joke"
i feel like i'm ventuing into the territory of "idiotstructionator is a big joke"
oh well wanna know the really funny part?
i think i believe this stuff

i think i just found my new favorite 'founding father' quote
Some degree of abuse is inseparable from the proper use of every thing; and in no instance is this more true than in that of the press. It has accordingly been decided, by the practice of the states, that it is better to leave a few of its noxious branches to their luxuriant growth, than, by pruning them away, to injure the vigor of those yielding the proper fruits. And can the wisdom of this policy be doubted by any one who reflects that to the press alone, checkered as it is with abuses, the world is indebted for all the triumphs which have been gained by reason and humanity over error and oppression?
