thimbronion: reminds me of one of my conversations with mp, this always stuck with me

(trilema) 2019-06-26 mp_en_viaje: prolly a better bet to buy real estate in ukraina or syria than costa rica. it's always good to buy in places the pantsuits just finished "helping" and sell in places they're just about to start "helping".

12:52

billymg: I recall that conversation.

12:54

billymg

and yet i bought here anyway, ah well

12:54

Europe is even less appealing after all the covid nonsense.

12:55

billymg

thimbronion: yeah, for sure

12:56

I posted the link because actually I was flagged down by the police in Guanacaste and requested to make a "donatin" to "fix the sewer line" of the police station.

13:06

thimbronion: afaik whole fucking planet is either a) reich b) this

13:06

( in some very speshul locales -- a+b )

13:08

asciilifeform: at least I can potentially invite la poicia to my parties.

13:08

*la policia

13:09

aaha, and for so long as give'em primo slices of the cake, may be golden

thimbronion: respectfully, nonsense. this wasn't a false flag.

17:47

if you've seen any of these derp "rallies", they're like monster truck shows. it was bound to happen

17:47

there were probably flasks of whiskey going around

17:48

trinque: the police opening the gates was caught on camera. you buy that 'ohnoez, we didn't dare not open!'

17:48

?

17:50

there's no possible way to construe it as 'standard'. asciilifeform has been personally present 'over 9000' times where crowd was agitating around e.g. white house, 'world bank', etc. and on 0 occasions was there any such thing as guards opening the gates to let all-comers ~in~

17:51

normally even standing next to gate is ~guaranteed way to get clubbed.

17:54

... and then , hr or 2 after the thing ends, e.g. harvard publishes pre-written 'statement of outrage.' and pre-written articles of impeachment trotted out likewise ~immediately. etc

~ 1 hours 30 minutes ~

19:24

trinque: I don't hold the opinion strongly. All I know is it's not who MSM says it was, and it didn't happen how they say it happened, whatever they say. Then there's also the fact that characters such as Baked Alaska were reportedly there.

asciilifeform: you realize how many cops are pro-trump?

20:49

especially after the "defund the police" thing?

20:50

listen, I just hold "false flag attack" to a higher standard than "a bunch of smelly derps took selfies"

20:50

maybe y'all mean theater, to which, yep

20:51

trinque: the nanosecond one of'em went into a spot where she ~actually~ wasn't supposed to be -- shot

20:51

what I don't buy is the coherent plan hypothesis

20:53

trump dorks are for example now saying "it was antifa!!"
