phart must be delighted that his leader is acting as a pissmaker.
He must also be delighted I quoted fox "news" rather than an extreme left source like NY times.
You mean every day, every hour.
That guy is violating the laws every minute.
It's #10 in this summary of the "Dictator’s Playbook":
Dictator’s Playbook: Common Tactics Used by Autocrats
1. Systematic Disinformation and Falsehoods
Dictators deliberately spread lies, distort facts, and flood the information environment with contradictory or false narratives to confuse and overwhelm audiences, weakening public trust in objective truth and fact-based reporting. Methods include high-volume, multichannel false messaging that makes truth hard to discern.
2. Delegitimizing and Attacking the Media
Independent media are portrayed as hostile, biased, or “fake news” to erode public trust. By undermining the credibility of objective reporting, dictators make people doubt realistic or critical accounts of their actions. Modern autocrats often manipulate rather than fully censor media, using legal, economic, or rhetorical pressure to silence dissent.
3. Controlling and Manipulating Information Channels
Beyond attacks on the press, dictators control or co-opt broadcast and social media, sponsor proxy outlets, and use state propaganda to shape narratives domestically and sometimes internationally. This includes bot networks and troll factories to amplify regime messaging and drown out critical voices.
4. Politicizing or Capturing Institutions
Independent institutions (judiciaries, election authorities, regulators, law enforcement) are systematically weakened or staffed with loyalists so they no longer act as checks on executive power. This erodes democratic safeguards.
5. Quashing Criticism and Dissent
Critics, opposition figures, and civil society actors are harassed, criminalized, or intimidated. This can take legal, economic, or extra-legal forms, creating a climate of fear that discourages open criticism.
6. Scapegoating and Dividing the Population
Dictators often blame social, ethnic, religious, or external “enemies” for societal problems, fostering an “us vs. them” mentality that distracts from governance failures and mobilizes support through fear or tribalism.
7. Corrupting or Manipulating Elections
Even when elections nominally occur, dictators rig or coerce outcomes through gerrymandering, fraud, voter suppression, legal changes to term limits, or claims of fraud when they lose, all to maintain a veneer of legitimacy.
8. Reinforcing Executive Power and Weakening Checks and Balances
Emergency powers, constitutional changes, and legal reinterpretation expand the ruler’s authority at the expense of other branches of government.
9. Creating a Cult of Personality
Leaders often project an image of indispensable savior or national guardian to build unquestioning loyalty. This ties popular identity to the individual rather than to institutions or shared governance.
10. Distraction Through Major Events or Manufactured Crises
When a dictator faces embarrassment, scandal, or a legitimacy threat, they often launch a big action, controversy, or crisis narrative to shift public attention. This may include major military moves, controversial policies, “provocations,” or spectacle-driven events that overwhelm or bury negative news. These distraction tactics serve to reroute public scrutiny away from problems that could weaken their grip.
Why These Tactics Work:
- Erosion of shared facts: If truth is contested and people can’t agree on basic facts, collective criticism and accountability become much harder.
- Information overload: Flooding citizens with numerous, contradictory messages creates confusion and apathy, reducing resistance.
- Delegitimization of critics: By attacking institutions and critics as traitors or enemies, autocrats weaken social cohesion and independent oversight.
- Spectacle over scrutiny: Large distractions or crises capture collective attention, pushing deeper systemic issues out of the public eye.
Are you an idiot?
Don't reply.
You are.
Idiot? You are a useful idiot for the liberal socialist.
He's ready to take over one of the largest in area countries in the world.
you only care about it for the US, and NO ONE ELSE.
“This woman CAT52! shows a lot racist behavior. Thats why she is getting attacked all the time”
I answered, “That’s not true, Bibi52!. You are just accepting that from others. However, if you would like to list the occasions where I sounded racist maybe I could explain myself.”
And, then I transferred this here. I just want to be able to expand the chat and bring up a few points about Bibi52!.
Number of members who befriended bibi52!: 0
Number of members who blacklisted bibi52!: 2 (Why?)
Number of members whom bibi52! has blacklisted: 4
Overall rating of bibi52! is: unfriendly
Blacklist reasons for bibi52!
1. Asshole
2. Harassment. Clearly PITBULL‘s alt account for harassing users
If you visit his gallery you’ll notice he joined on June 3, 2025 and so far, he has no friends. Another fact? He has not posted ANY pics. I don’t think he’s qualified to pass judgment on me. So, let’s see what he comes up with.
Why can’t you say what you mean?
Both is illegal speech, but I don't see repetitive behavior here.
Any more examples?
You're talking to a socialist, who knows the difference. If she was a communist, that is not illegal in the US (yet).
I see lots of racist and homophobic comments in these forums, all coming from the right-wingers. I have never seen either of you care about it.
I will do my best to be a neutral observer.
Is there a possibility that you stop making attack moves?
See what happens if you just let her be?
You know, Christmas spirit, or something.

In any case, I never drank fanta or any other chemical like sprite, etc.
Lead & Copper: Leached from old pipes.
Nitrates: From agricultural runoff.
Arsenic: Naturally occurring or from industrial sources.
PFAS: "Forever chemicals" from industrial/consumer products.
Microplastics: Tiny plastic particles found in water.
Pesticides/Herbicides: From farm runoff.
Pharmaceuticals: Residues from medicines.
Disinfection Byproducts (DBPs): Like Trihalomethanes (THMs), formed when chlorine reacts with organic matter.
Heavy Metals: Mercury, chromium, cadmium.
Radon: A radioactive gas.

How about bottled water. Foundation: The pharmaceutical industry is a specialized branch of the broader chemical industry, relying on its processes and materials.
Essential Chemicals: Common chemicals used include solvents (acetone, ethanol, ****), acids (HCl), bases (sodium hydroxide), and reagents for synthesis.
Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs): These are the core chemicals providing the drug's therapeutic effect (e.g., ibuprofen).
Excipients: Inactive ingredients like lactose or magnesium stearate, crucial for stability, absorption, and delivery.
R&D Focus: High investment in research to discover new molecules, improve drug delivery (bioavailability), and enhance patient compliance.
Manufacturing: Involves precise chemical engineering for synthesis (like hydrogenation), mixing, purification, and coating to create final dosage forms (tablets, capsules).
Quality & Safety: Strict quality control ensures the purity and safety of chemicals and final products, critical for efficacy and patient health.

How many people have used protein drinks or powder, did you know the dangerous levels of lead that is found in all protein powder. Yes up to 128 % over what the fda allows in the powder and drinks and how bad the lead is to your body. Try googling about the lead in protein and you probably won’t ever use it again like me.
That lie collapsed a long time ago.
They voted for — and still defend — an adjudicated rapist, a convicted felon, a serial adulterer who insults women and openly brags about sexual assault. And now? They’re actively blocking the release of the Epstein files, protecting powerful abusers instead of standing with the children who were molested.
Let’s be clear:
This isn’t about conservatism.
This isn’t about Christianity.
This is about power, loyalty, and cruelty.
At some point, “owning the libs” became more important to the GOP than protecting minors and delivering justice to survivors. That’s not political strategy — that’s moral rot.
As someone who once belonged to this party, I’m asking the question they refuse to answer:
👉 When did cruelty replace conscience?
👉 When did loyalty to Trump become more sacred than protecting children?
Silence is complicity.
Cover-ups are violence.
And history will remember who stood on the side of truth — and who didn’t.

Judge Caprio APPLIES Maximum Penalty

Alas, I think this judge passed away recently.
He had dignity and integrity.
Just the opposite of phart's god.
Mongo make a wish for Holday is for Christmas story written for Mongo By Skittles and AngelOfDeath:
Twas the night before Christmas in the Florida dead heat,
In a trailer that smelled like old rotten ass and Charlies dead cut off feet.
The air hung so thick it could gag passing flies.
And the neighbors crossed streets just to avoid the smell of Saggy Granny’s old crusty fish pie.
Bill collectors knocked on the patched cardboard door.
Letters of past debt stapled upon it from when Saggys dead daddy dodged the first World war.
Saggy screamed lies she half-believed. “Your money is coming once Charlie’s Sears pension is received.”
The couch just like Charlie had no legs, the TV just snowed.
The trailer park toughs took bets on when the place would explode.
Saggy Granny paced, swatting flies off her rear.
Needing her Arby’s fix for the fouth time here.
Her shit encrusted Santa suit stuck to rolls much too small in size,
Smelled like hot garbage and an adult site forum filled with copy/paste lies.
Mongo sat still, eyes buggy and wide,
On furlough from the hospital where they tried to cure his tumor filled hide.
His bracelet still clung like it knew he’d return, his asshole pulsing red and covered with chemo burns.
Saggy Granny slithered like a snail leaving old lady slime across sticky tile,
Trailing a smell like she had not bathed in a long while.
She reeked of old ass, pits, failure and despair,
Toilet ghosts tangled deep in her back pussy hair.
The Home Depot toilet bucket was staged with great care,
Behind a shower curtain held up by a old broken lawn chair.
Charlie lay grumbling, Natty Ice in his grip,
Dreaming of prepubescent girls and taking a sip.
When out by the Rogue there arose such a clatter,
Charlie yelled at Saggy that she was due a hit to the night with the frying pan if she didn’t check what was the matter.
Outside the trailer came flashing red, blue,and white,
Charlie said, “NOT AGAIN,” thinking of Leeroy taking his ass in the cell that one cold dreary wet night.
Charlie rolled through yelling, his Natty Ice warm.
Cursing his luck and the day he rode a door to freedom in the eye of a storm.
He called the police names he will not now claim. His legs tossed to the side, and his cock limp with shame.
Blue lights bloomed through the busted trailer blinds. Broccoli in the midst of a seizure induced by the lights bouncing off her Saggy Granny's behind.
Dragged out screaming, beer spilling free,
Charlie vanished into Police custody.
Then the door creaked open—slow, deliberate, wrong—
And LADARIUS entered, humming a an old negro spiritual song.
A pimp from the seventies decked out in clothes from a goodwill donation bin,
Polyester suit stretched tight a gold tooth in his grin .
Yelling at Saggy, Now ho where ya been?”
He surveyed the room like it owed him rent,
A trial of Arbys Beef n Cheddar wrapper’s, his money was spent.
A seventies pimp dragged from the wrong decade’s grave,
Polyester loud, eyes flat and depraved.
Cheap cologne flooded the trailer in waves,
A choking mix of rot like Saggys dead daddy’s grave.
He smiled like he knew everyone’s weakness by smell,
Saggys asshole clenched knowing the next couple hours would be hell.
Saggy Granny leaned towards him, desperate and weak,
Said, “YOU LOOK JUST LIKE GEROME,” her voice a barely a squeak.
Ladarius smiled like he’d heard that before.
He always had. They all look alike, that was fo sho.
Then something scraped softly outside the tin,
A wet dragging sound, slow and thin.
Mongo looked up, heart ticking wrong,
As a shadow stretched unnaturally long.
Through the busted blinds, glowing red light bled,
Not warm.
Not kind.
Just sickly and dead.
The donkey that attacked Saggy stood there in the trailer parks brown mud,
Hide patchy, ribs sharp, eyes gone dull with blood.
His nose burned red like an infected sore,
Lighting up Saggys squishy downy face like police cruisers lights on a two dollar whore.
Far away in a cell smelling like piss and shame,
Carlitos dreamed he still mattered, and Charlie was his American name.
In his dream he had legs — cruel, fast, mean —
He chased naked schoolgirls through half-remembered scenes.
The girls ran laughing just out of his grasp,
His two inch knob hard and ready, his pants at half mast.
And just when he thought his reality was more than a dream,
Charlie woke up choking on a scream.
Charlie screamed until his throat went raw,
He woke up alone with nothing at all.
No legs. No beer. No rage left to spend.
Just a prison sentence humming like it would never end.
Back at the trailer the donkey stood there, ribs sharp, hide torn,
A Christmas mascot dead, stripped and worn.
His nose burned red like Mongos infected Cancer ass. Like a conglomeration of Saggys Christmas's past.
Just when they thought this Christmas couldn’t get any worse,
Rhanda-Lynn came in pulling a .22 clean and quite from her purse.
One sharp crack split the air thin and fast,
The sound scared Saggy and she squeaked brown goo from her ass.
Saggy Granny shuffled forward the ass of her Santa Suit all soggy and wet,
Trailing her stench like unpaid old debts.
She reeked of toilet gravy, sour grease, and decay,
Like a turtle cage boiled and left out all day.
“WELL LOOK AT THAT !” Saggy yelled, “AINT SANTA SO SWEET?
DON’T WORRY ‘BOUT CHRISTMAS DINNER, WE GOT US SOME MEAT.”
Saggy laughed like it solved every problem at once,
Like hunger was holy and mercy was dunce.
Her breath rolled thick, a hot spoiled wave,
While Ladarius nodded like this made them brave.
Rhanda Lynn stared, purse still warm at her side,
Bosom rising heavy, stomach churning at the thought of a dinner of dead donkey hide.
Although Broccoli was a vegatable she learned something that day-
no low is to low when your family’s depraved
cat52!
The dear leader pardoned him and he's out now.
The dear leader is now launching a war against Venezuela for drugs.
That's so fair, isn't it?
I know the pathetic phart will reply its Biden's fault.
But I don't support a pardon for a drug lord. and I don't support lowering the restrictions on pot. 2 things Trump has done that I don't support.
Trump is not perfect, he is just a hell of alot better choice than the alternative we had. she would have wrecked this country in a week
when 1 drug lord is put in jail it promotes 2 more.?
The reason that trump pardoned the ex-president of Honduras is that he used to be licking trump's ass and calling him "your excellency" and also sharing the same extreme far right ideas as trump. Trump needs flatterers regardless whether they're criminals, felons, scoundrels, murderers,....
Funny thing is, your answer is not factual and can't be proven. it is just a agreed upon theory for those that agree with YOU>
So they are already having issues with charging electric cars?
Sheesh,what about in 5 years? The power company are not permited to build new power plants.Solar and wind are going to be important to keep the grid up. But that didn't work in Texas did it?
They make a lot of energy in Texas,but how many folks died over the winter this past 1?
Angel1227!
So a private, for profit, company did not plan on a hard winter so their production of electricity was not sufficient? And this utility, regulated by the states, failed to meet the demands? This state (Texas) governed by Repukers was not regulated correctly so this company spent less on production and got richer because of it? This sounds very much like a Repuker business idea.
I fault the power companys in texas to a point but I also fault the citizens for lack of preparedness.
Face it, sometimes you need regulation, especially for basic facilities like power.
And I then mentioned the issues in texas with electricity.
What everyone is missing here is the fact there is NOT enough electricity being produced to meet CURRENT demand.As Ananas has indicated.So imagine if you will,5-10 years from now,when there is GREATER demand? What a mess we are in for.
Regulation is not the solution. that is how you GOT TO THIS POINT. To many regulations preventing new power plants being built and trying to snuff out coal,a effective energy source.
You think that if they are running short they won’t try to catch up? The regulations you protest are there to protect the people and the environment. But, knowing how you think, fuck that. Let coal continue to pollute. We’ll be dead by the time our grandkids die of poisoned air.

Only 2 under construction according to this chart.

The US shut down how many? lets see

Now, we shut down 39 and we are building 2. Does that sound like regulations are helping any? 2, there are 50 states. So state regulation is not changing anything where it may be either.
If you want coal gone,you need to have a replacement handy before hand.
Nuclear power is not the solution. There are 80 sites in the United States where nuclear waste is stored. Some of it is stored temporary in a location that is not safe long term. The best uranium sites are already running out and it's getting ever more expensive to mine the stuff.
That waste has to be looked after for the next 20,000 to 1M years, before it's safe. Humanity probably kills itself before that or there might be a few survivors that don't know how to keep the waste safe and radiation will finish them off. But who cares, right?

Like nuclear is the only alternative to coal.
I just used nuclear here because MOST tree huggers-liberals,think nuclear is the answer.And it has Ooodles of issues that take Many years to deal with.
Actually, I even prefer fossil fuels over nuclear, even though I'm a tree hugger-liberal. Nuclear might be a bit better on carbon emissions when the reactor is built, but building new ones creates so much emissions, it takes 20 years to recover.
Another problem is that nuclear reactors take ages to start up and stop again, which is not practical as backup for solar and wind. Fossil fuels are at least needed until we have enough geothermal, hydro (incl. wave), biofuel, biogas, hydrogen, chemical storage (formic acid), thermal energy storage, battery storage and whatever I forgot or they think up next.
Then there is off-course the waste and the risk.
Eh so more electric cars will reduce demand?
I know you are not a engineer,but even you should be able to figure out that can't work.
groas violations of human rights, so the US or Europe don't need them as an ally.
If they can't sell us oil ,they will make their money on interest from loans.
We could afford to use fossil fuels if we could finish our pipelines and drill in otherwise useless lands like up north in alaska where there is nothing but woods.
The alaskan pipeline built long ago,was supposed to be such a wildlife disaster,ha,the animals love it,it is warm near the pipeline.
California has MILES of coast line,Why are they not looking into this tech?

Instead of wasting all that coast line for half naked people to lay around and spread covid,there could be power plants there!
NO pollution! No noise that is not already there,and erosion control! WOW,
Kansas,could be using wind and solar to help of course.
Another non polluting power source,

How many Chernobyl’s do you know? One in the states, one in Japan, and one in Russia. Here, in Miami-Dade county, FP&L has been operating the local one over 50 yrs. Same in other cities around the state. And no pollution
You don't hear about the Mcquire plant here in NC getting to hot but it did a few years ago. The tree huggers were angry because a type of fish was dieing from getting caught in the cooling system water.So they put a screen over the intake. Worked fine for a while. Until the screen clogged up with little fishes.A employee told me about it.
Here is a long list of potential accidents and how to deal with them

Yea,I know,I got dizzy after 10 minutes of readin!
I can't see a coal plant being any where near as dangerous to operate
They can't even take in water, without sucking up all the fishes
According to the Rainforest Action Network. For decades, climate change has been a global crisis that will impact every single person and living being on this planet. Now, according to the latest UN climate report, we have less than 10 years to cut global emissions in half.
Burning fossil fuels isn’t just bad for the climate, these industries also violate countless fundamental human rights. From frontline communities facing a fossil fuel pipeline on their land to Indigenous people facing fires in the Amazon to worker rights violations on palm oil plantations, the industries fueling climate change are also fueling injustice.
Coal, tar sands, and fracked gas show everything that’s wrong within the fossil fuel industry. These extraction practices are harming people and planet every day, and big banks are fueling this destruction of the planet and negligence of life.
So what’s so bad about coal, tar sands, and fracked gas? Basically everything, from start to the finish these fossil fuels are disastrous.

chernobyl didn just happen and stop.It is still happening today.
Smog will go away at some point.
coal smoke can be filtered.Try filtering radiaton.
So we only would need half that exclusion zone filled with solar panels
and that would cost about 78 Billion Euro's. That would raise our national debt from 56.3% of GDP to 66.2% of GDP.
Jobs for all our unemployed people will pull that debt down soon enough.
Accidents happen. Even if the chance is 1:1M (historically proven it's much higher), when you multiply that risk by the number of nuclear power plants required, something catastrophic will happen at some point. Such catastrophes could cost more than the complete energy transition.
That's not worth it, because nuclear power is only a temporary solution, because the uranium will run out at some point. It's already becoming more and more expensive to mine the stuff.
Even if all those problems didn't exist, it still takes 10 years before any nuclear power plant has compensates his own build. But it first takes 10 years to build any. Then after 20 years, they are just as CO2 effecient as wind and solar. That's too late. We need to lower CO2 emissions ASAP.
Anyone with some money to spare can invest in their own solar panels,
lower their costs and be less dependent on power companies.
It's nice to have air-conditioning in a heat wave, when the government
is telling you not to use power or you can't afford it when power companies are charging you 100x the normal rate.

I also don't like nuclear energy and my arguments are in line with the science on climate change. That uranium has to be mined, which also emits CO2.
A nuclear power plant takes a lot of energy to be built and maintained.
Then afterwards we have to keep the waste safe for the next 20,000 years.
On the short term nuclear is about as energy/CO2 efficient as wind power and even less than solar. In the long term nuclear has a horrible energy/CO2 efficiency, because keeping the waste safe also costs energy. Also, building nuclear power plants takes a long time and lots of materials. It takes about 10 years before a nuclear power plant compensates his own build. That's about 1-1.5 years for wind energy and 2 years for solar. However solar is cheaper
on maintenance.
Other than that, I agree with most of what you said.
All energy technology costs money, materials, energy and land to build and maintain. All energy technology has downsides like pollution, mineral shortages, exploitation of people and CO2 emissions. We just need to stop with the worst energy technologies first and expand on the best ones the most.
It doesn't require completely changing our life or have impact on the quality of our life. However climate change already impacts our life and it will only get worse. We can either choose to accept some changes now and prevent total catastrophe later or we can deny the truth until catastrophe proves us wrong.
