Watching the video of his dance, yeah, I'd give him $5!



But then, this happened, and he's dead!

You didn't post a full accounting of what happened or his extensive background.

Yes, very sad.

Powell served under Biden since January 2021 and was selected for reappointment in late 2021. Interesting that he kept QE and didn't raise interest rates (only a quarter point) until March 2022.

You really should just stop.
Youre embarrassing yourself.

As if Biden could have fired Powell.
As if the Fed Chairman was some kind of a cabinet position.
lol

I must admit, you sure do have a knack for talking about things that you know nothing about.





As if I said Biden could have fired Powell. Your ignorance knows no bounds. The Easter Bunny reappointed him. Lol. Duh.

Yes, you never actually said that.
But you implied it given your statement that Powell served under Biden since January 2021.
Otherwise why even the need to mention it?

It's totally irrelevant given that no President has ever fired a Chairman of the Federal Reserve.

Of course, you've shown that you have no idea whatsoever why that has been the case.
But that doesnt stop you from naively and arrogantly repeating it ad nauseum.
It's who you are.

I'm putting you back on ignore like Unit2 has.
You're ignorance is not worth my time.

'You're' lack of reading comprehension is laughable, and I look forward to you pretending not to read what I post. You can't see the relevance because you can't change your opinion on anything. It is easier to teach a fifteen year old beagle how to roll over than to get you to admit something is true if it goes against your love affair with Wall Street and the Easter Bunny. It is who you are.

Seems like a tragic accident. But I know I don't have the full story here so I'm willing to wait and see. Giving my opinion here. Should the guy be dead, no, probably not. Was this guy scaring the heck out of everybody, sounds like he was. Should this guy have been out on the streets in the first place? Sounds like no. This is the same kind of things police many times have to deal with and make split second decisions, then we come down hard on the entire police force and neuter them if they make a mistake. Then they don't really try to do their jobs anymore because they're more worried about making a mistake than saving a person, be that a person with mental health problems or the victims inevitably create.

I saw a high school wrestler do nearly the same thing to a man trying to attack a woman and her children that were locked in a bathroom. The perp survived till the police got there.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, CONCORDTOM WOULD LIKE ME (MAYBE) TO REMIND YOU TO KEEP THIS THREAD CLEAR FOR ANY BREAKING NEWS THAT MIGHT OCCUR. MORE DETAILED DISCUSSIONS AND INVIGORATING BACK-AND-FORTHS, SUCH AS THE ABOVE, CAN OCCUR ON THEIR OWN, DEDICATED THREADS.

PS: AND DON'T EVEN CONSIDER MUCKING UP THE "OBITUARIES" THREAD (CONCORDTOM'S LEGACY)


Maybe I should have them carve my username and password into my tombstone.

Maybe I should have my estate offer GregBear $1M in order to compile all my BI posts so it can be published into a Book of Life.

I think there would be some interesting subtitles. Anyone want to make some suggestions?



Attention: this is what's called a "softball" setup for all my frenemies. Creativity shall be rewarded.

Sorry you had to step in. I even used all caps on 'em... nothing. Feeling so powerless today...

For you tech bros out there: Is it possible to build a cyber-octagon and attach it to this forum (but not this thread, which should be kept clean for breaking news)?

Correct.
I posted the one dance. Which was apparently not same as what was happening on the day he died.

I just don't get how a guy comes up and chokes him out dead.
It'll be curious to learn exactly what happened.

Maybe if we weren't so callous toward others, focused instead on low tax rates, collecting our own, leaving insufficient social services for the needy, be it the mentally ill or the homeless.

Here's a potentially Hot Take:
I say that we are living in the post Ayn Rand era of Objectivism. Meaning, her ideas have thoroughly permeated into our culture, and people aren't even aware.

From Google:

Objectivism is a philosophical system developed by Russian-American writer and philosopher Ayn Rand. She described it as "the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute".

We've spent Trillions upon Trillions on the War on Poverty with mixed results and little insight. Who is in prison? I'm told 80% can't read, and 80% didn't have a Father.

Mentally ill - if they can't take their meds, why aren't there humane mental institutions?

Homeless appear to be a large percentage drug users, and vagabonds. Homeless is mostly a misnomer. Europe solved the problem according to Democrat Michael Shellenberger (author of San Fransicko). This is a tough mental block for some Liberals bc they see drugs as a life choice, harmless, etc. Meanwhile, the open southern border allows the cartels to smuggle in hard, cheap drugs, which cause more despair.

Locally, Progressives in California refuse to toughen sentences for selling fentanyl bc of their pro drug stances, and desires to close nine more prisons (4 in the process of closing down). Closing prisons has an added bonus to Democrats - more $$$$ to play with for global warming, social experiments, teachers unions, etc. So they won't toughen laws and enforcement against a very deadly drug which has killed thousands.

I heard on a podcast interview (don't remember where exactly) that there is a secondary calculation to this: Tucker Carlson had become such a toxic presence for many advertisers that Fox wasn't getting the same rates on ads they sold for his show as they would for a less controversial host. His high ratings still seemed to make it worth keeping him around (until now), but the consideration for new hosts would be not just what ratings they bring but also will the big advertisers come back and improve that revenue steam as well? They can take a ratings hit if it's offset by that.

Don't forget he only released one night of J6 tapes, night two disappeared. Poof! He is anti war, and was calling out our corrupt, crooked intelligence communities.

James Lindsey speaks to the EU about Woke, it's history and references, how it's applied in the west, how it is socialist and doesn't hide it. This speech is brilliant imho.

I stayed awake for about the first four minutes. Dude doesn't seem to know what a genus is. Maybe review his taxonomy, but I sort of get the point he is trying to make... sort of. Speaking of not knowing, I don't know what "queer theory" is, nor do I care to, but it sounds like something that exists to frighten insecure people. No, I'm not going to google it.

The United States is a capitalist country and I don't see that changing. We should strive to provide equal opportunity and equal rights to all of our citizens. That doesn't mean everybody is going to end up equal.

As a white, male heterosexual, I feel pretty confident that people like me are going to be okay.

You watched 4 minutes then feel confident enough to comment about it. He explained why he uses the word genus as part of his example to make it easier to understand. He literally explains what Queer theory is and how it is tied into "Woke" or Socialism with American Characteristics. At least attempt to watch the whole thing before commenting for goodness sakes.

The number one thing you have going is that you are smart and resourceful. It is not your immutable characteristics. If you had a different upbringing, perhaps you wouldn't have these traits, but you do, and that is why you will be okay.

The explosion in young teenager sex reassignment surgery, mastectomies, castrations, online cheerleading, and youth grooming doesn't concern you?

Apparently surgeries are being performed with the 'tough' requirement of one letter from one individual, professional training unspecified.

How about we reserve barbaric, unproven, hyped fad surgeries for those over 25? And require some real professional requirements by trained professionals? (One doctor disagreed with the Chloe Cole procedures, and they brought in another doctor to rubber stamp the procedures. She is now de-transitioning.)
