What kind of American fuckery is this?!?!?
I’m pretty sure this violates about five different gun safety rules and about a hundred common sense rules.
So yes, it’s American
You’ll notice that he follows all 4 of the gun safety rules at all times;
He keeps the muzzle in a safe direction (assuming the camera itself is not being operated by a person/is being operated remotely; which is likely), he keeps his finger off the trigger until ready to fire, he treats the gun as if it was loaded at all times (by pointing it in a safe direction) and also fires into a direction he is aware of the extent of and thereby knows what it beyond his target and between him and his target.
That said, yes, this is American, and he has more videos like it on his youtube; if you’re into that sort of thing.
Man: *loads weapon safely*
Tumblr: oh ok sure
Man: *shoots 3 solo cups*
Tumblr: illegal
Tumblr: also America is bad
“I’m sure this violates about five different gun safety rules” said the person who was clearly ignorant of gun safety rules.
@aestheticandpolitik
Not only does he have a gun, which is super scary, he’s having fun with it, which should be illegal!
Make a mans whole retirement here why don't you
I have, like .... seventeen uses for this. Where do I get one?
Didn't even know this post was moving till it hit my dash again, I put it in the replies too but it is called a "chompsaw" and it's by Chompshop
They've got all kinds of patterns and such on their site for different creative projects, it does appear to be limited to cutting cardboard so if you want to do wood you will need something beefier.
He's in charge and he can do that, the next one can change that decision, that's the rules as I understand them.
The Vatican is not a place for multi-faith study, its walls were erected to protect St. Peter’s Basilica, and the surrounding Christian community from attacks from invading Muslims in the mid 9th century.
Islam, and its scholars, have no place in the Vatican, and this Democrat plant is no Pope, he, like Bergoglio before him, are political subversives, nothing more.
It very much is such a place, which is why the Vatican library has several quite ancient copies of the Q'uaran as well as other Muslim texts
Well yes, you study your enemy so you can better understand them, that's not a foreign concept, however, the Vatican was never created for multi-faith study
The Vatican serves as a church over the burial site of St. Peter, after legalizing Christianity, Constantine began building Old St. Peter's Basilica around 324 AD to create an official, monumental shrine directly over the Apostle's tomb.
Vatican City was established in 1929 via the Lateran Treaty to give the Pope sovereign territory and political autonomy.
The Catholic Church historically teaches that there is "no salvation outside the church" and views other religions through the lens of evangelization.
The advents of the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s which shifted its stance to actively promote interreligious dialogue is heresy according to actual Catholic doctrine.
Also, it's spelt Qu'ran, and if Muslims discovered these texts they'd not just attempt to burn the building down, but kill everyone who had ever seen them, as they are proof the Qu'ran is not a perfect book, and has many different versions.
So I repeat, Islam, and it's scholars have no place in the Vatican, and I do not recognize the authority of leftists who have infiltrated the Holy See, or their decrees.
We should also include that Saint Thomas Aquinas essentially declared that Islam is heresy some time before he died in 1274 (actual year was between 1258 and 1262 for the completion of the manuscripts that became his books since it was across multiple texts).
Islam has no place in the Vatican in any capacity. But to destroy history, as islamists seem insistent on, is wrong.
Fucking leftist they/them "lesbian" trying to dictate what it means to be a Catholic, and how the Church ought to be ran.
Got blocked, but isn't it always telling, that Leftists are supporting this Pope?
He's an ideologically captured Democrat from Chicago, supports everything they want, and seeks to bend the Church to adhere to modern political movements.
Also, since when does Liberalism require allowing Islam into our nations, or institutions?
dude you're legit fucked in the head. stop the larp...................
Are you legitimately stupid?
i follow your page mainly because its hilarious but honestly man you need to get a grip. you basically just peddle christian nationalist white supremacist worldviews under the guise of being a lib and you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. just step back and reconsider dude
First, you don't follow me.
Second, please do make proper use of punctuation, and capitalization.
Incorrect, I adhere to a Christian framework, which is the philosophical and ethical foundation of Liberalism, and the Western world.
Christian Nationalism isn't what you believe it to be, but that objection will fall on deaf ears as you are not one to adhere to rational discussion.
I have never once stated that whites are superior in genetics, I have stated that European culture is in reality superior to other cultures, if that is white supremacy to you, then you have no idea what the words you use mean.
Please do reconsider being such an austere tit.
Bro also apparently forgot that the Orthodox exist.
I'd love for them to listen to the Patriarch of Antioch, John X or the Patriarch of Africa, Theodoros II if they're going to pretend to give a shit about Christianity.
I'm only not including the patriarchs of Jerusalem and Moscow because they seem like the sort to get hostile at the suggestion. Apologies if you're reading this and didn't, but you gave off the vibe.
The Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew wants us to be able to live in peace. I won't call him a coward for refusing to denounce IS and similar such organizations, but I will call him an idealist at best.
Kril (Moscow) wants to unite against secularism and islamism. I'm not particularly a fan either.
But Theophilos (Jerusalem) just recognizes that it's a part of life for him, and pushes everyone to do what they need to to live.

There is overwhelming evidence that proves Kyle Rittenhouse did nothing wrong and the left ignores it all and continues to pretend that Kyle is a bad person and celebrate any bad thing that happens to him.
The left is a bad group full of bad people who will ignore reality and want you to be harmed. They don't make it a secret either but they will spend their existence trying to make you believe you're the bad guy.
Gotta remember, kiddie diddlers and woman beaters are clearly listed in the victim hierarchy.
"you can't pick and choose what you like from canon" common misconception! yes you can
but please do not get this very true concept confused with “you cannot pick and choose what is canon”
they are two very different things.
thank you for this addition seriously
I can and will, actually.
When some faggot with no love for the source material perverts it "for modern audiences" I can absolutely decide that shit isn't canon.
The new Star wars movies aren't cannon.
To everyone carrying a heavy heart in silence, it’s gonna be okay, someday.
tbh i don’t think any aesthetic or fandom is inherently leftist. people will say “you can’t be goth/punk/emo/alt/whatever if you’re not a leftist!” and “how do conservative star trek fans exist?” and like. it’s simple. they’re literally just aesthetics and fandoms. there is nothing inherently leftist about dressing a certain way, or listening to certain music, or watching certain tv shows.
i think a lot of people want to believe that performing a certain aesthetic or being in a certain fandom makes you a better leftist, because they’re at least semi-aware that they aren’t doing enough. but instead of going out and trying to improve anything, they just reframe something they’re already doing as radical and leftist.
I agree with this for everything except punk because punk starts in the mind and you truly can't be punk and be conservative. You can be punk and not look punk, but there is no way you can be punk and right wing.
If punk is being anti-conformity, and the left is dominant and conformist...
Not in this country it ain't.
For calibration: are you one of those people who thinks being left only applies to communists and socialists, and the mainstream american left is actually centrist or right-wing?
My yearly reminder that the Ramones were anti communist and Johnny Ramone in particular was a Republican.
I note they never answered my question. Gee, I wonder why.
Johnny Rotten voted for Trump in 2020. This made him more punk than Rage Against the Machine and Green Day who supported mandatory COVID vax and Joe Biden
B-b-but taking personal responsibility and not relying on the boot on your neck isn't punk.

I saw the goat first but once I saw the bird I can only see the goat if I cover the beak because that's clearly a bird beak, not a goat horn.
It's some kind of kingfisher.
It’s specifically a kookaburra. And I think it’s female, the males don’t have the different-colored chin (their beak is all black).
Stop buying Apple products and the world will get better.
Communist utopianism relies on the fairy tale that if you replace the old government with a new one, that new one will magically just fade away and we’ll just be in an anarchist peace state singing kumbaya, instead of the reality that happens every single time where the very same greedy, power hungry tyrants you’re ostensibly meant to get rid of just rise to power and make everyone else’s lives horrible.
When you’re completely dependent on the government, they WILL fuck you over.
Listen:
"Won't Get Fooled Again" is a cornerstone of my political beliefs. I suffer no delusions that the guillotine holds any salvation for mankind. But at the same time, something's absolutely got to give one of these days, right? It's a very strange kind of freedom to allow a very few people to profit incalculably from human suffering. Would-be emperors in generalissimo uniforms, brimming with medals and tassels, are not our only extant breed of tyrant.
And you're typing this on an older phone you bought used, because that's a very easy way to not contribute to the system you say is universally harmful? You don't get to talk about freedom while defending an ideology with a dictator-creation ratio of 100%.
There are in fact not only two economic systems, anyway. You have choices other than communism, if you don’t like privately-owned industrial employment. (And that’s all “capitalism” means; if it means free trade and private property then the pre-reservation Navajo were capitalist and the “American school” in political economy wasn’t.)
We could, for example, arrange things so instead of shareholders hiring people to use the means of production that they own, the means are mostly owned in shares by the people who directly use them. That’s a guild. It has tradeoffs compared to capitalism but you certainly might prefer them without being irrational.
What you can’t rationally prefer is replacing the shareholders with a government agency, and thus making slacking off at work into malfeasance at a government job. Which also involves the decisions for the industry being made based on political agendas instead of economic factors. That’s communism, and that’s why it causes famines and shortages even when it’s not deliberately starving people to punish them for preferring a different system.
Should you, dear reader, put concealed concrete in your mailbox, so that if someone is going around smashing mailboxes, hitting it breaks his arm?
This debate is rolling on Twitter. Right-wingers argue that steal fortified mailboxes will teach mailbox smashers not to smash mailboxes. More lib/left users argue that the potential damage to the arm is disproportionate to the crime.
I think the answer here is pretty straightforward: ninja-armbreaker mailboxes are for when the rate of mailbox attacks is high (because the state isn't doing its job), and not for when mailbox attack rates are low.
When mailbox attacks are low, it's potential "teachable moment" on a mailbox by mailbox basis, and when smash rates are high either no one's learning anything or there are roving gangs of mailbox raiders.
I thought that there had been a court case about a very similar circumstance, and a search turned up the case of Snay v. Burr (2021, Ohio).
The mailbox in question had been repeatedly vandalized, so the owner rebuilt the mailbox with an eight-inch pipe set three feet deep in concrete. An innocent party's vehicle departed the roadway, collided with the mailbox, and flipped. The vehicle's sole occupant was permanently paralyzed below the neck, and sued, saying that the proximate cause of his injury was not his loss of control of the vehicle and subsequent departure from the roadway, but the abnormally-strong mailbox.
Writing for the Court majority, Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor stated the Court has repeatedly ruled political subdivisions, landowners, and others owe a duty of care to drivers if they create hazards that “affect the safety of ordinary travel on the road.” Because Matthew and Diane Burr’s mailbox did not affect the safety of ordinary travel on the regularly traveled portion of Young Road, they are not responsible for the injuries suffered by Cletus Snay, she concluded.
I think that any court would be even less sympathetic to someone who suffered an injury in the course of voluntarily committing a crime.
Personally, I think "a car having an accident might crash into the mailbox" is actually a reasonable justification not to make concrete-fortified mailboxes (stealth or not) the norm.
By comparison, suppose that a man puts a landmine into his house. A firefighter could end up entering, and get blown up by the landmine. Life is full of unexpected outcomes.
From this brief summary, I think that much of the moral liability lies with the vandals.
I probably wouldn't, because I don't want to seriously injure someone or get in legal trouble over a mailbox.
Just like I won't put laxatives in my food to deter thieves.
On the other hand, if I block the vandals with concrete fenceposts that are clearly visible - with hivis tape, even - that's a lot more justifiable, though I'm still not certain.
Laxative in the food is like concrete. That's for when it keeps happening and you get no relief from the crime, not for "it happened once."
I still have large moral compunctions about poisoning someone. Especially over just food.
Poisoning is only wrong because it betrays hospitality—and so does stealing food. Poisoning a well when you have to retreat before an invasion is not the same thing as poisoning it under normal circumstances.
We’re not even talking about killing thieves and vandals. (Of course, a few prominently displayed corpses would probably be more effective than concealed laxatives or reinforced mailboxes. “Bad neighbors make good fences.”)
I have no qualms about people getting served their own consequences when it's 100 percent avoidable. Don't commit vandalism and you don't have the chance of being injured due to poor decisions. If I don't want to possible mangle my arms then don't play stupid games.
Poison on the other hand if it is planned requires intent and therefore requires even if the victim "deserved it" culpability on the part of the poisoner. Fortifying a mailbox is a defensive measure while poisoning food is an offensive one.
I think slipping laxatives—not even a really dangerous “poison”—to someone who keeps stealing your clearly labeled food from the office fridge, is pretty much the same as the reinforced mailbox. If they don’t steal your food, they don’t get the laxatives.
I think you may be mistaking the emotional revulsion to breaking the taboo on poisoning, for an actual rational moral principle. That’s even good! The moral principle is valid and the taboo that protects it is good. But a taboo and an actual ethical principle aren’t the same. Marrying a stepsibling isn’t actually incest, either, even if feeling like it is is often a good thing (makes it much less awkward to live in the same house with them, for one).
And let's not forget that we're talking about the last, desperate actions of the victims of a campaign of harassment.
Besides, sorbitol isn't even a laxative. It's a low calorie sweetener. Sorbitol (and other sugar alcohols like xylitol, mannitol, etc.) occur naturally in certain foods and are added to others, often in conjunction with other sweeteners.
It's just that eating more than a couple of sorbitol candies will give you the farts. More than that, the really nasty farts. More than that and you will need the commode.
People will really say with their full chest: How could this person be a Nazi didnt you hear them say generic leftist populism
#can’t believe redefining leftist to mean reactionary anti-liberal leads to describing far right positions as leftist
Nobody here is saying that, everybody here is saying "leftist populists are spouting off Nazi shit left and right and the left doesn't care because Jew-hate is normal now."
And everyone knows the Left can't be antisemites, so anyone appearing to be must ACTUALLY be far-right. /s
Also Nazis were themselves generic leftist populists. All fascists are. Fascism is pretty much entirely about the complaints of the working class; in fact fascists usually have much more support among actual workers than communists do. The idea fascists and Nazis are not leftist is literally communist propaganda.
An obvious example is that most of the plots to assassinate Hitler were mainly orchestrated by military officers of aristocratic background: Nazis weren’t just evil and self-destructive, they were vulgar. People who think snobbishness is related to fascism are lamebrain normie progs who know no more history than J. K. Rowling.

I think Americans are a bit too comfortable believing that Buddhism is inherently a pacifist religion and that it bars us from doing any harm whatsoever. It’s a religion of compassion, not pacifism. Those things are not the same and you can’t use them interchangeably.
I never understood that, since Buddhist monks are known for kicking serious ass. Do people think the swords and spears and "claw their throat out move" are for meditating?
Yeah, why do you think there are whole orders of monks who practice martial arts?
It's like people assuming Christianity is pacifist despite the historical militant orders like the Knights Templar, just war theology, and the fact that many early converts were Roman legionaries, leading to the need for just war theology.
One of Oda Nobunaga's most powerful and best organised opponents during his campaign to unify Japan in the late Sengoku Period were the Sōhei (warrior monks) of the Buddhist Enryaku-ji monastery on Mount Hiei.
Nobunaga had to burn down the entire mountain to finally break them.
Inside you there are two Buddhists
Nobunaga did not have to burn down the mountain, he chose to burn down the mountain. Because he was an evil son of a bitch.
