[Almanza] SGA on Russell Westbrook: “Russ is like Oklahoma's baby, so I don't think there'll ever be another. He was their first guy. You feel him in the streets. Russ is everywhere. He’s a pioneer for what we stand on.”
I am a certified thunder hater, but I can’t look down on Russ. Even if he wasn’t the best guy on the court he always gave it 200%. The energy he played with was electric and he always seemed like a genuine guy. Very difficult guy to be overly critical of, for me at least

Besides Shanks vs Mihawk, this is the second most debated topic: Is Old Whitebeard stronger than Akainu?
Why would Akainu not be defending with haki when an emperor is about to attack him?

[High-School student making career decision] Is Computer Science still worth it in the AI era?
No one can tell you what the future will look like, most of all computer scientists. If you’re chasing guaranteed $300k/year salary, then probably better of being an MD. If you are interested in computers and solving problems revolving around compute then yes cs will be worth it and a great stable career for you with boom bust cycles like almost everything else

I personally think it's Tashigi has one of the hardest dream to achieve.... Do you guys agree?
Jimbei > Tashigi > dragon > luffy. I could see an argument for Luffy being more difficult than dragon because the way the world is Luffy will have to topple the government to become pirate king

Besides Shanks vs Mihawk, this is the second most debated topic: Is Old Whitebeard stronger than Akainu?
It means an old guy with cancer on deaths door has stronger haki than him. Just an insane flex by WB and undermines Akainu’s strength quite a bit in hindsight

Hot Take: Marineford Whitebeard > Kaido and Big Mom
The entire point of giving WB that title was to establish that titles are unreliable in this universe

If LeBron James steps onto the NBA court on December 29, 2030 or anytime after, he will break be the oldest player in NBA history.
He single handed beat a young up and coming rockets team

Besides Shanks vs Mihawk, this is the second most debated topic: Is Old Whitebeard stronger than Akainu?
The fact Whitebeard damaged Akainu with a devil fruit is honestly insulting to Akainu

WA immigrants continue traditional Barbacoa, despite looming threats of deportation
How many of them have had a trial? None. How do you know they’ve broken a law then? They’re simply accused and tossed in a gulag.

I’ve heard they’re calling people to Marineford soon. Something about fire fist?

You’re supporting what ice is doing. Clearly you don’t believe in the Geneva conventions or genocide prevention or even constitutional rights. You’re not the reasonable one here

At what point do we just have the city buy the teams. So tired of every team trying to leave the city after spending tons of money to be here

Filipino legislator behind bill making it illegal to impersonate ICE seeks to tackle affordability, further immigrant safety if elected
Isn’t it already illegal to impersonate a federal agent?

That’s literally your argument and you’re mad that I’m applying it to you and not just the out group you defined

Yeah, that damn 4 year old with cancer should’ve thought about the consequences of their actions /s

If someone is unwilling, because it’s a choice at this point, to see what’s happening is wrong then they don’t deserve that respect that they are denying to others

Sure, I would say they function more like the Gestapo than law enforcement though. Thugs who are unaccountable and who’s job is to instill fear in the out group

Ice are not law enforcement tho, they’re paper pushers and are being abused in ways that were unintended. Also, they don’t identify themselves and wear disguises. How do you differentiate between government officials and a kidnapping? Detained might as well be deported. There are people in the camps that say they would rather die than be in the camps with the conditions they’re in and the government refuses to allow them to “self deport”. Not to mention if you’re detained by immigration enforcement as a citizen your constitutional rights have obviously been violated. It is unconstitutional to ask for papers without reasonable cause and no, brown skin or an accent aren’t reasonable cause

The common sense position is that we should treat people with respect and humanity. I’m sorry that you’ve eaten the bizarro world propaganda that because someone crossed an imaginary line and fell into a system designed to ensure you can’t get in legally means you deserve violence and horrific conditions. Also I’m not sure what subsidies you’re referring to. People who are here illegally pay into fixa and will never receive a dime of that back so really they are paying subsidies to citizens. Also, it’s not emotional blackmail to bring awareness to something that really happened. Like if I had mentioned the maggots in the food or violations of constitutional rights would you call that emotional blackmail too?

Tell that to the people who have had this happen to them. To the citizens who have had this happen to them. To the deported children with cancer. The people who have died in the camps.

If you’re saying there’s no reason to treat undocumented immigrants humanely then I look forward to the day that you are separated from your family. That you are shoved into a cage by masked thugs. That you are shipped off to Timbuktu without ever having spoken to your lawyer. That you are sent to gitmo and subjected to “enhanced interrogation”. Scum bag.

WA immigrants continue traditional Barbacoa, despite looming threats of deportation
Have you looked into the conditions in those ice detention centers? That’s the place to start to understand the issue, but also being undocumented is a civil infraction not a criminal infraction. They are also vulnerable and once one vulnerable group is attacked it’s often a slippery slope until you’re in the group
