Firework Lighting Protester Hit Hard By Karma

Kid baits NBA camera and flashes free Hong Kong shirt

newtboy says...

Karma is a bitch.
Those boomers expect following generations to take care of them in their old age. I hope they toss them in a ditch and just take their assets like the boomers did to their (our) futures. Turnabout is always fair play.

There will come a time, soon, when resources are scarce enough that only those who are productive, pulling their own weight, can be supported. Time for soylent green to be created.

It's too bad the next, or even the current generation is so far away from having power as the boomers seem determined to wring every fucking dollar they can from the planet as if the Earth is disposable and the money is somehow useful where they're going.

Republicans Storm Hearing After Bombshell Testimony

newtboy says...

Lol. Nice.

Don't forget, they stormed into closed door hearings live streaming the whole thing, even though electronic devices are 100% not allowed in such hearings by law to maintain state secrets, protect witnesses, and even to protect the president from baseless or unproven accusations becoming public. Closed door hearings are like classified information, and the Republicans just tried to broadcast them to the world.

Hilariously, hypocritically, the thing they're so faux outraged about today is the rules Republicans enacted so they could make it easier to impeach Clintons....

Just a taste.....
Andrew Napolitano reminded Fox and Friends viewers...that Republicans wrote the rules on impeachment proceedings during the Bill Clinton years. Uh oh.

@bobknight33

Be honest. If a Republican-led impeachment inquiry into Obama were stormed by Democrats blatantly ignoring security, house rules, and common decency simply so they could delay the inevitable and disrupt a democratic process, how would you feel?

(I expect if he's actually honest, the answer would come out something like Westley when he answered Count Rugen when he asked how having a year of his life sucked away felt)

Grreta Thunberg's Speech to World Leaders at UN

vil says...

THNX

I do believe it is.

If my world is not very habitable in the first place and I have the option of setting fire to some rainforest to build a farm, sell me some clean air and Orangutang habitat in exchange for good karma and poverty, please.

On the other hand if I make decisions that impact hundreds of millions of people on a daily basis without much recourse to anything in particular (party line? military commanders? local clans? religious leaders?) what does a teenagers speech on the opposite side of the planet change for me? Its just completely off the playing field of making important decisions.

I hear her cry, now calm down and look for ways to actually improve the situation, please.

Suing Argentina for breaking childrens rights? Not bad, human rights cases were actually a good method to fight communist regimes in the 70s and 80s. Just a very slow grinding method.

You're asking people, including some who don't have a lot, to give up something. And not actually promising them anything in return, except a generally "habitable world". Tough sell.

I love it when a plan comes together.

*quality Karma...if only the ricochet had blown his dick off it would be perfection.

What a maroon.

Kid Physically Threatens Teacher For Not Rounding His Grade

psycop says...

I don't know if you've seen the sort of thing I'm talking about, but the usual formula is you see a video with a title like "Bully picks on the wrong guy" or something, then you watch the video and what you see is someone getting their head kicked in, and you feel good. Then you have an entire comment section with "That's what you get for being a bully" etc. But nothing in the video actually shows him being a bully.

So if the title had been "Man is attacked completely unprovoked and suffers life changing injuries" the judgement would be very different. Maybe you just watched a crime and enjoyed it.

I find it really strange that people will argue back and forward about the details of the content of the video, but never question the framing. It's "a given" he was a bully etc. because some text at the top said so, we just discuss whether it was appropriate.

So in this video, maybe the situation was exactly as described, but I don't know what information I'd use to get to that conclusion. And nobody in the comment section really seems to be trying.

Why don't we see him asking for his grade to be marked up? Wouldn't that be the money shot here? Kid makes outrageous request, which for some reason I edited out, then behaved terribly... maybe they didn't get their phone out in time... who knows? Not me.

This is not one of those 'instant karma' videos I mean, I'm just drawing the parallel with the context free clip, followed by collective righteous feeling and judgement.

Just to clear things up, when is violence deserved again?

Kid Physically Threatens Teacher For Not Rounding His Grade

psycop says...

Hmm... so we're all just going to go along and believe the title are we?

Even in this edit we see the kid remarking that the teacher raised their fist to him and challenging him to "do it again". Not the best way to react, but pretty understandable if your fight or flight has been triggered.

The source video seems suspiciously free of context or additional detail. Reminds me of the many "instant karma" videos which conveniently miss the alleged event that deserves the violence that follows. But we all get our two minute hate and the warm glow of consequences well deserved.
