Extremist ideologies remain that: extreme ideologies. Again, it does not matter if left or right. You can put both in a sack and hit it. You will always hit the right one. Or do you wanna tell me that Che or RAF, idols for some leftist, were good guys and killed nobody?
National Park Service workers were seen roping off the area Thursday afternoon, and National Guard members appeared to be directing the public away from the grass. National Park Service workers were seen later roping off the area.
What about even later? Were they seen going home for the day?
Do the workers need to be rebooted? Or like, is the rope they’re using not long enough? Are they just walking laps with a too-short rope, endlessly attempting to enclose a volume they will never have a long enough rope to enclose? Just chasing the end as it moves away from them with each step?
Does their struggle represent the American dream? Is there a smug geometry teacher somewhere yelling “this is why you need to know the formula for perimeters!” at their news source?
My favorite acts of resistance are the ones that make the fascists look stupid, it's sometimes hard because they're very image conscious, but it's sometimes easy because they are in fact stupid.
I thought roundup doesn't work on grasses? But I agree that the pixelated look suggests they couldn't directly see the process and had to map it out beforehand and follow through row by row or something.
It worked on my lawn, I sprayed some weed and then there ended up being a circular hole in the grass that took a year to close. And that was the last time I did that.
There's a folk etymology that it comes from a particularly infamous speakeasy with two entrances, one on 86th street, and unruly patrons would be forcibly ejected from that entry.

Well I know what the FBI is going to be too busy with to possibly look into the new Epstien information

It's not 'contentious', it's just anti-Trump.

Reminder that “8646” was NOT contentious when MAGA was selling merchandise with that on it while Biden was POTUS.

Fascists are notoriously thin-skinned.

They also notoriously love a double-standard.

Excellent examples of why insecurity is poison that will eventually consume everything you are.

it's just a reference to the louis jordan song that has the line '86 on the cherry pie', that was released in '47.

But what was the National Guard doing? They can’t leave it all to the National Guards! Also, we need to know who was managing the public.
ChicoSuave@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 99d
The National Guard are doing more to control the scene of the lawn than they did during January 6th.

Any news on how they did it?
My first thought was maybe a roundup or acid soaked towel? That could explain the pixelated look.

what does 86 47 mean? I missed that
samus12345@sh.itjust.works · 18 pts · 99d
86 - slang meaning "get rid of"
47 - Trump is the 47th (and 45th) president of the US.
northernlights@fedia.io · 8 pts · 99d
oh, thanks. 15 years in the US and I still trip on idioms sometimes. I forgot about "86" (probably because I never understood where it comes from).

Now it's commonly used in restaurant kitchens to indicate something (an ingredient or whole dish) should be thrown out
MonkeMischief@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 98d
Or sometimes, still indicates a patron in need of ejection or blacklisting! :p

Yeah it's pretty archaic at this point.

It's pretty old-fashioned, so no surprise! It comes from the hospitality industry, but where the term itself comes from is unknown.
