The people responsible for this are literally pedophiles. Angry, nasty ones. That's a fact.

These folks are largely motivated by fulfilling Biblical prophecies. I wish more people understood this.

Trump has raped children. I wish more people understood that when these ferocious Christians are referred to as pedophiles, it's literal. This isn't hyperbole. Do some fucking research.

The center of American politics is Jerusalem, not DC.

If you understand that much, the rest will occur naturally for you.

... what?

Why detonate artillery shells over a highway, or around people at all

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 56 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They did it to directly threaten Californians. Fuck this regime

[–] VdTyiCwLi73VWf@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

Yes. Precisely the point.

It was the marines birthday. And the National No Kings protest. I think Donnie wanted to remind us all that he’s not afraid to do military things on domestic soil when he gets his feelers hurt.

Except it wasn’t on the actual anniversary which is in November

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

True, was wasn't this the celebration? Your bd might be next Wednesday but we can have your party the previous Saturday.

I was reading an article on the shell that detonated over I5 and I think this was the celebration. Article was rather loose with the timeline.

This was the celebration but IMO it was intentionally moved to coincide with no kings and they wanted the highway open in order to condition troops to firing live rounds in vicinity of civilians and to threaten Californians.

And what, prey tell, is the connection between live artillery and child abuse?

[–] ViatorOmnium@piefed.social 36 points 2 days ago

In this case, wanton disregard for other people, bordering on narcissistic solipsim.

Prey tell could work too, I doubt victims of either would endorse them.

[–] xxce2AAb 26 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Wait. I'd like to hear more about this artillery shell that detonated over the I5. As in fuzed for air burst? What did the nutters do - fire a M982 Excalibur round?

[–] yumpsuit@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It was actually the Orange County Young Republicans cosplaying with a vintage Wehrmacht Flak 88

[–] xxce2AAb 24 points 2 days ago

I wish we were living in a part of the multiverse where that would sound utterly implausible, but...

[–] Dhs92@piefed.social 9 points 2 days ago

Supposedly the round malfunctioned

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I’m sorry, but that just doesn’t track. Just because you don’t like something doesn’t make it pedophilia. That word has a specific meaning, and the loss of meaning due to hyperbole and doublethink is related to fascism. Please don’t try to expand the definition and project it on to your political enemies, despite how vile both concepts are.

The other side is doing exactly the same thing to justify their hate for the people they don’t like.

Trump literally has a history of raping children. You're assessment is incomplete.

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sure, but in my opinion Trump is more of a rabid narcissist than anything. His narcissism informs some of the reasons for his pedophilia, but that is not what this act is. This is a barely cloaked threat of military action against protest, and a political intimidation tactic. Though it could be argued that both stem from his narcissism, I don’t think that it stems from his pedophilia and this act is not pedophilic.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 6 points 2 days ago

It has nothing to do with this though.

[–] thoughtfuldragon@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh that's what it was supposed to be.

I thought it was a new species, like the rage zombies from 28 Days Later.
