Facebook Follies of Friends and Families

[Duque de Bragança]

He fought the extreme-right wing Pentangle though. Granted, not as a ninja, but as Matt Hunter, the name  of the character played by Chuck Norris in Invasion U.S.A. 

Doesn't really register as a right-wing outfit.

Wrong Pentangle.



A card-carrying member. Somewhat open to (sexual) "diversity".

Eh?
What's epstein doing on there? Isn't epstein didn't kill himself more of a left wing conspiracy with the trumpys being rather more "shut up about it"

[Eddie Teach]

Epstein also knew the Clintons.

Talented musicians, iirc Bert Jansch recently died.

edit:
No it was John Renbourn, Bert died back in 2011.

I was hoping some of the Brits would get the reference.

I listen to a lot of folk.

In the right wing narrative there's several people who supposedly had dirt on the Clinton's and died violent deaths.

Meanwhile, I just heard a family friend who happens to run a funeral home is now being treated for COVID-19...

Facebook finally got to me, by the way. I couldn't take all the COVID-19 hoax/RE-OPEN crap littering up my feed, found myself in an argument where I was getting WAY too heated this morning, and decided it was time for a little break from the place.

So not social media, but...

my son Tim was invited over to play road hockey with one of his buddies for his birthday.  Supposed to just be 4 kids total, all outside, sounded just fine.  I go over to pick him up after supper.  There now had to be 15-20 people in the backyard, no meaningful social distancing (about the only thing was it was outside) - with more kids and parents had been invited.

But the thing is - both of the parents are doctors!  And normally they are such germophobes - they've decided not to come over upon hearing one of my kids had the sniffles.  It just has me scratching my head.

To be clear - they're not covid-hoaxers or deniers.  They very much know it's real and what effect it can have.  But it's a combination of the fact numbers in Edmonton are very low (~50 cases total), and just being tired of being locked down for two months and wanting to go out and socialize.

Well we're learning as we go also. Risks of transmission when outside seem to be very, very low.

Hilarious.
So some of the people joining in with epstein didn't kill himself think they're talking about Clinton.

Welcome to the club, I stopped checking Facebook 2 or 3 weeks after the lockdown started, as I was getting overwhelmed with the amount of nonsense that was being published. I should go back at some point, as it's the only way I have to communicate with a bunch of people, but man is it hard.

[Berkut]

Words fail me.

[Razgovory]

That's a joke right? 

[Berkut]

That's a joke right? 

It is not.

I posted a rebuttal to my sisters wall, and I suspect it may mean she disowns me. Pointing out that the young womens last words were ""Long live the Communist Party, and partisans! Fight, people, for your freedom! Do not surrender to the evildoers! I will be killed, but there are those who will avenge me!" and that she was a member of the Communist Party since she was 15 will not go over well.

If we are going to remember the basic lessons of history it is probably best we get the basic details right.

I mean she does know you right? You know a shitload about history and WWII.

I guess the thing that confuses me about this is that the big foe of the Nazis was the Socialist Party of Germany. If they were just some socialist party the SPD and the KPD would have been their friends...so how does that work?
