I completely agree, and yet it's still not enough to help the Yanks win against the fucking Blue Jays in the 10th inning.

Helped the blue jays, and I forgot to tape the game.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Getting their asses whipped by a cheapskate franchise that recently lost it's toxic face of the franchise to the Cardinals. This is the so called world series champs? Pathetic.

That happened 24/7 during the McCourt era. He bankrupted the team in 2010 and then flew to France to ruin another team (Marseille).
In solidarity with Ukraine, I will be censoring the letters Z and V from my signature. This is -ery much so a big change, but it should be a -ery positi-e one. -olodymyr -elensky and A-o- continue to fight for Ukraine while the Russians are still trying to e-entually make their way to Kharki-, -apori-h-hia, and Kry-yi Rih, but that will take time as they are concentrated in areas like Bakhmut, -uledar, and other areas in Donetsk. We will see Shakhtar play in the Europa League but Dynamo Kyi- already got eliminated. Shakhtar managed to play well against Florentino Pere-'s Real Madrid who feature superstars like -inicius, Ben-ema, Car-ajal, and -al-erde. Some prominent Ukrainian players that got big transfers elsewhere include Oleksander -inchenko, Illya -abarnyi, and Mykhailo Mudryk.

Abolitionism in the North has leagued itself with Radical Democracy, and so the Slave Power was forced to ally itself with the Money Power; that is the great fact of the age.




The triumph of the Democracy is essential to the struggle of popular liberty

The MLB is still doing business with the PRC government, which micromanages their political system far more than Georga, yet isn't boycotting China over that. What is up with that?
