HardlightCereal got banned from Raddle for doxing someone. The site’s primary admin quite literally uses they pronouns. That doesn’t preclude enbypobia in itself but should at least make you question what HardlightCereal’s actual goal is without more evidence.
My guess is he didn't get the reaction he expected and was offered exile. He saw a quick death if he continued and the chance to defect west or something if he stopped. I think stopping becomes the obvious move in that case.
The bigger question is why did he start in the first place? What conditions existed that meant that was the best move.
Not quite. If you are in so deep that you are worried about color you already past the executive order that defines the layout of the flag as you know it.
If you notice all the flags in the video has a singular blue area. This one has two. Whether that is valid or not dependa on how you interpret "union of the flag shall be forty-eight stars, white in a blue field".
If you think that means the blue area must be contiguous then this flag does not meet the definition. If you think the blue area does not need to be contiguous then this flag may meet the definition.
So I had a conversation on this in a different community. I'm going to summarize my conclusion here.
Sadly the flag code defines the flag as having a singular blue fied.
I tried to get a good definition of what exactly a field is. Here we have the definition "The backdrop color to a flag. Ex: On the Arkansas state flag, it is the red part."
I'm not actually finding a better definition and am starting to question if the canton in the US flag counts as a field in vexillology terms since it isn't a 'backdrop'.
A better way, and perhaps the more accurate, is to ask how we would construct a flag. The red field in the Arkansas flag is one piece of fabric. The blue canton is one piece of fabric. Two blue stripes could be once piece of fabric with everything else sewn into of it. But I think the better construction would be two pieces of fabric sewn on to the outer two stripes.
But I wouldn't worry about it since section 5 codifies "existing rules and customs pertaining to the display and use of the flag of the United States" by using an existing executive order. That order's attachment basically defines the flag as you know it.
Of course none of this is actually has a mechanism of enforcement so you can fly just about anything and just call it the American flag.
Ok here's my take from someone who hasn't played them in probably close to 2 decades, didn't actually own them but just played with a friend who owned it. But I did love the series at least enough that I still have impressions of my feels from over 20 years ago.
I remember loving playing Twisted Metal 2. I can remember sitting in front of the TV plating the single and multiplayer. I can't remember the specifics of much more beyond very basic mechanics but there is a very positive emotion. My memory of Twisted Metal 3 is just disappointment and blandness.
I didn't get much time with either game but I remember having the choice between them and choosing 2 over 3 consistently.
If a large chunk of people are in a similar situation as me, only vague limited impressions from long ago, give their opinions you their opinion over more than a decade you build a very negative image.
Throw in people just discovering the games and being told 2 is good and 3 is bad. They then compare maybe minutes of the gameplay before deciding which to play and reinforce the narrative. You can end up with a fan base with an unjustly harsh view.
I can honestly see 3 being just kind of mediocre and just being judged awful because of how good 2 was.
Citizens United at least had some hand wavy group rights derived from each individual's rights going for it.
This is basically buy your way to vote in any local election.
<s>Because as a business owner you have exactly as much say in a locality's government as someone who actually lives there. Or even more of they don't fix the "each LLC gets a vote not the owner loophole".<\s>
In other towns where this is allowed, a representative of the entity, not the actual owner, was able to cast the ballot for the company after signing the necessary affidavit. Delaware allows for the owner of the LLC’s identity to not be public.
Yep no way this doesn't-
In a Newark referendum election in 2019, a property manager was able to vote 31 times because he was in control of 31 LLCs, which owned 31 parcels of land. The city then changed its regulations after this became public.
Ah it already did cause problems.
Why in the world would you put business on the same legal basis of actual citizens?
The alpha radiation that DU emits is not strong enough to penetrate human skin, so just being near depleted uranium is not a health risk. But it may become a health hazard if it is ingested or inhaled, or shrapnel fragments are retained in the body.
It's really just one more hazard a former battlefield can have. If I was in or around a former battlefield that had DU rounds used, I would be more concerned about unexploded high explosives.
