Am I the only one who wonders about the fucking asbestos
Easton Rivera
Who are the opposition to Mugabe? I just pray they aren't to his right, he's too liberal as it is.
Aiden Hall
Other ZANU-PF members believe he is subverting the constitution, that is his opposition.

MUGABE! DON'T LET THEM TAKE YOU DOWN! YOU DO YOU KING!
Robert Peterson
What has asbestos to do with it? It's probably lead paint and pipes from older houses in poor neighborhoods.
You can safely live in a house filled with asbestos, as long as it isn't exposed to air and disturbed its fibers won't get into your lungs.
Are there people here who unironically support Mugabe?

Mugabe's incompetent and brutal but it's definitely possible to do worse. Need to know who's launching the coup and why before I form an opinion on it.

DiEM25, trans-European left democratic group formed last February by Yanis Varoufakis, to become an electoral party DiEM25 currently has 64,000+ members across the EU
What do y'all think? I've always been partial to Yanis for introducing me to Marxism, his pragmatism, and support of alterglobalism, but DiEM25 always seems like a vague socdem movement with no real concrete goal.
Hunter Murphy
Pure reformism obviously, but I guess not everyone has the iron will required to be an armchair revolutionary.

There was a crime wave in the 70s that didn't abate until the early 90s. They completely banned lead in gasoline by the late 80s and the lead in everyone's blood went down. All these mass shootings probably have to due with the increased amounts of lead in everyones system and probably won't stop until the lead problem is seriously addressed again.
Owen Powell
I like it; the reversal of national parties forming EU blocs into EU party forming national functions This kind of true pan-European polity is what I've been shilling for on this board and elsewhere and what I want out of the EU. Maybe I'll join the party, or somehow associate the existing organisation I'm in with DiEM25.
Some porky offering jobs for sex? Boy, what a surprise.

Ctrl+F'ing this thread, though, you seem to be the only one posting anything about sexual harassment. Are you on a crusade against white men or something?
This is pretty fucking damning. Not so much in support of the "Russians hacked the election!" narrative, because I can believe Russia could have given subtle pushes to Trump without doing anything aggressive and impeachable, but it's the biggest blow to Wikileaks' claim to neutrality I've seen yet.

Founder of Florida's Biggest Megachurch Accused of Molesting a 4-Year-Old
All elections and referenda in Europe happen on the basis of nations and regions within a nation. The only relatively direct way people vote for something bigger than the nation is the very weak European Parliament, and even here, it's a national affair: You can only vote for a party existing inside your nation, sending a delegate from your nation. Somebody born and raised and living in Krautland but feeling Irishkin can't vote for Sinn Féin, for instance. So, a party that has a little bit of support everywhere across Europe and that would easily get some seats in a proportional election treating the entirety of Europe as one district can fail to get any seat in the system as it is, whereas parties that are very nationalistic, liked by a significant minority in their country and hated everywhere else, can get seats. So, in what sense can a party be transnational, given the laws in place? They can have several national parties that present a shared brand identity, but they actually do have to follow national regulations and so be quite separate entities, I believe. The shared brand thing has been done by the Pirate Party before them, and other national parties do have their European alliances, there is a green-left one, the conservatives have one, and there are more. >opendemocracy.net/can-europe-make-it/diem25/not-just-another-political-party >DiEM25’s “electoral wing” will be the first transnational party list with a genuine transnational decision-making structure, a truly pan-European campaign, and election manifestos, as well as policy papers in general, for each country party being approved by all DiEM25 members across Europe. DiEM25 thus remains the transnational movement which authors the manifesto and policies of each member-state manifestation of our ‘electoral wing’. As an example, our German, French, Italian etc. members will have to approve our Greek election manifesto, and our Greek, Italian, French etc. members the German one. That's a genuine difference. Pirate parties have also done that, but pretty much every other party doesn't allow that, and as long as that is the case, it makes no difference whether the party has that rule or not.

If Don Jr's tweets are to be believed, the Atlantic's piece is pure sensationalism.
It just seems that Wikileaks was doing 2 things. 1, looking for some promotion and 2, trying to get Assange out of that embassy. Can't really blame the man for pandering to the candidate that didn't say they wanted to drone bomb him.

In 2003, John Flores, a pastor at Smith's flagship in Costa Mesa, was arrested for having sex with the 15-year-old daughter of another pastor. According to Christianity Today, he'd been fired twice before for sexual misconduct, including once after getting caught having sex on church grounds, but kept getting his job back.
Two years later, a Calvary Chapel in Laguna Beach fired its pastor for adultery and embezzlement — but Smith quickly rehired him to preach at the nearby Costa Mesa church.
That same year, the church found itself in a bizarre scandal centered on a lucrative, 400-station radio network and its head, Idaho-based Pastor Mike Kestler. He had been in hot water in the '90s when multiple women in his church claimed he'd sexually harassed them, but Smith gave him another chance.
In a lawsuit, a woman named Lori Pollitt said after she had moved from Texas to Idaho to work for Kestler, he repeatedly demanded she divorce her husband, give up her children to adoption, and marry him. When she rebuffed him, she said he stalked her and put a "hangman's noose" in front of her house.
This time, Smith and his son Jeff actually turned on their pastor, pushing him out. They ended up locked in dueling lawsuits, with the pastor accusing Calvary's leaders of skimming profits and the Smiths charging that he used his influence running the radio stations to pressure women into sex. (The cases were settled out of court.) [and so on]
You mean the media that has been trying to convince me for the past year that Russia hacked the election and received classified information from Trump, is now trying to convince me Wikileaks got Trump elected? Egads!
Why user, to forgive is the Christian thing to do.
Luis Martin
Wait, fuck, this is saying the top 1% is as wealthy as the remaining 99%. So the 5 richest being as wealthy as the lowest 50% should still be true.
Honestly surprised that Assange took Trump this seriously.
Jeremiah Edwards
Oh I don't doubt he's partial against the candidate that wanted to fucking drone his ass. What I do doubt is that the little communication they had amounts to anything. Even if they never communicated, his files on Hillary would have had the exact same effect.
Zachary Cruz
