I feel like knowing when not to speak also overlaps with CHA.

Blurry lines indeed.

I have never seen Intelligence contrasted with Wisdom in a way that felt fitting. Does an intelligent person not know when not to speak?

Charisma is essentially Social Skills.

Social Skills definitely help you get laid, but also convince a shopkeeper to give you a discount, persuade a guard to look the other way, etc.

People had far less evidence to go on for JFK and there are still people who think he’s out there, running things.

A lot of those who voted for casual racism are upset that overt racism, Constitutional erosion, and economic instability came with it.

That’s why you’re seeing some of them split.

That’s a great speech but it has almost nothing to do with what I said.

They said, comfortably at their keyboard in the A/C, via a device ostensibly constructed due to authoritarian regimes forcing brutal conditions on their workers.

Probably not.

Most cops, like most humans, don’t particularly want to die.

Crimes are one type of unlawful act.

Civil torts are the other.

Historically, Civil Rights Act lawsuits were some of the more potent tools against corrupt police. Obviously that’s going to be different under Trump.

Yep, it’s like I said.

Don’t be pedantic.

If someone checks off 9/10 of the qualifiers, treating them like and calling them a nazi is plenty accurate.

It’s a consequence of the platform getting more popular.

Whats the opposite of Silver Lining? Rust?

As the saying goes,

Not all Republicans are nazis, but all nazis are Republican.

In recent years, they are in leadership positions more and more often.

So you have to dig your head further and further into the sand to still call yourself a Republican without being a nazi. At a certain point, which I’d say is in the past, you’ve got yourself a nazi bar. Because even when you’re not a nazi, if you ally with them, you may as well be.

Like how Mussolini wasn’t a nazi and Franco wasn’t a nazi.

My point being what was never claimed does not need to be reclaimed.

Hell, the frog poster doesn’t even look like a pepe.

If you want to use a frog, use a frog. It doesn’t have nazi connotations.

Honestly I don’t even buy that the far right owned pepe in the first place.

International folks seem to have no idea of that. It seems to be a largely American held belief that somehow pepes are as good as swastikas.

It seems like you want to have a barely related discussion on American imperialism in a thread about Gavin Newsom.

Which, as I understand the Russian military relationship with the Kremlin, came as a surprise to even Putin and would certainly incite some panic, renewed propaganda efforts, and saber rattling like we’ve been seeing him do lately.

Arguing in bad faith for the good guys is still arguing in bad faith.
