Not if we reuse it.

Because there are 10s of millions of gun owners in this country, if not more. Very, very few of them commit crimes with guns.

Oh yeah, totally joking lol.

Feed birds next to Tesla dealerships.

Simpler even than that. It would mean someone gets to tell them no.

Declining population, my ass. There were less than 4.5 billion people on the planet when I was born. That fash-hole is only worried that white people will represent a minority of the future population. Nothing more.

Honestly, that Neanderthal has a beautiful, happy face.

I bought a Switch back in the day. Beat BotW and that was fun. Barely touched it since.

The one on the left is probably bigger. That's not a photo of a great white, but an artist rendition of a megalodon.

Would it win though? I have doubts. Especially in light of the macroraptorial sperm whales like Livyatan. But I'd never bet against a pod of orcas vs almost anything.

LoL nah. Good parents might, sure. Bad parents just think they do, while projecting themselves onto their kids. I'm pushing 50, and my parents have never understood me at all. Even when I open up and try to explain my perspective today, they take offense, declare it as rebellion against god, and simply refuse to think about what I've said. There is no helping them.

Certainly not top tier. Very few make it through that kind of training, by definition. High end specops get hired by billionaires for amazing salaries. Lesser elitists have to settle for lesser qualified security: former soldiers and cops basically.

None see all. None have superpowers. None of them are immortal. All of them are outnumbered.

Bullshit. When the established power base forces millions of lives into destitution, revolution is the only acceptable solution. After which you change your government to benefit the people. Communism wasn't the problem. The problem is Russia has had a cultural obsession with strongmen for centuries. That was their problem under monarchy, under communism, and now under capitalism.

In fact communism was the best thing that ever happened to Russia. They used to be peasants. They improved literacy, their industrial capacity, and built a middle class. They beat America to space. But they just couldn't find it in themselves to overthrow strongmen, and that is why they suffered.

What a strange idea to consider; that a nation attempting an early experiment to improve society might somehow be drawn off course early by wealthy, powerful psychopaths.

My goodness, this must be the first time in human history.

I want them all armed to the teeth by the thousands, then halt, turn, aim, and fire.

And what did I say about nations attempting communism but being quickly taken over by dictatorships?

It certainly was not. The idiot just thought this would be a great way for him and his buddies to rake in money. He never imagined people might stop buying new.

Aw gee, let's see; 3rd world nations attempting to create a future for their people vs the CIA. Clearly the problem is a flaw in their political philosophy, not the ruthless, overwhelming superpower that doesn't want to see that happen because prices might go up.

Jesus Christ.

To him we are all nothing more than NPCs.

Correct. Communism has never been allowed to succeed. Either it's been co-opted by fascists and dictators from within, or it's been crushed by the CIA from outside. Many small attempts have shown great promise, however, before the greedy and powerful slaughtered them.

As a matter of fact, yes! Tacking a sail side to side allows a sailboat to sail upwind in a zig zag pattern. With a solar sail, a spacecraft can tack away from the direction of orbit, slowing down to reduce its escape velocity, and allowing the Sun's gravity to pull it closer. All using no fuel.
