[01:51:11] <cmn32480> gives the editors time to set the usual malarky up without the community seeing it

[22:14:58] <FatPhil> congrats. I think I'd rather smaller and SSD right now. I'm not a hoarder.
[22:15:29] <FatPhil> external 2.5's are my backup devices now.
[22:15:59] <paulej72> yep that is what I will use this one for
[22:21:42] <mechanicjay> FatPhil: Indeed, one of my history classes went really deep into this stuff from the standpoint of the german legal system -- it's all there in historic documents.
[22:23:27] <FatPhil> 1933's Haavara agreement apparently existeth not in modern curricula.
[22:24:36] <FatPhil> I'm not saying he supported the zionists because he had good intentions, quite the opposite.
[22:24:37] <mechanicjay> As I recall it, Germany was far from the only anti-semites in the western world in the 1930's -- another fact that modern peoples seem to forget. "If only we'd known he was killing them all!?!?!"...right.
[22:25:41] <mechanicjay> FatPhil: Of course
[22:30:49] <FatPhil> Did you see the most recent John Oliver? Nixon doesn't come out smelling particularly clean...
[22:31:39] <mechanicjay> I don't watch that hack.
[22:32:06] <mechanicjay> ...though your statement doesn't surprise me
[22:32:26] <mechanicjay> ...I recall learning somewhere that Nixon wasn't a big fan of the Jews.
[22:32:33] <FatPhil> It really seems as if there was a bucket of badness, and "jew", "atheist", and "communist" were all just thrown into together, and the rest of the right-thinking paranoid world distrusted them all.

[22:34:07] <sedctl> <FatPhil> thinking 50s/60s here.
[22:34:08] <mechanicjay> yeah, that sounds about right too. Hell, there's still a shit-ton of that crap hanging over us
[22:34:08] <exec> <FatPhil> thinking 50s/60s here.
[22:34:31] <paulej72> hey some of my biggest creditors are Jews :)
[22:35:02] <mechanicjay> When my wife's Grandpa says shit like, "You young kids, how could you support Bernie Sanders? You don't remember the USSR and Communism and how evil that was!!!"
[22:35:08] <mechanicjay> that's pretty much a direct quite.
[22:35:20] <mechanicjay> s/quite/quote/
[22:35:20] <sedctl> <mechanicjay> that's pretty much a direct quote.
[22:35:22] <exec> <mechanicjay> that's pretty much a direct quote.
[22:35:48] <FatPhil> mechanicjay: assuming it will have an exponential decay, like radiation, the geiger counter is still quite lively, certainly.
[22:36:46] <FatPhil> Unfortunately, it keeps getting topped up every so often.
[22:37:06] <paulej72> I was just thinking that as well FatPhil
[22:37:36] <mechanicjay> indeed. As for anti-semites -- I can only assume that people who "hate jews" don't really interact with any very much. For every sterotypical "greedy jew bastard" I know, I can count 5 who are really community focused generous people.
[22:37:49] <mechanicjay> 1 to 5 that's pretty good on a shithead/decent person ratio for a group.
[22:38:03] <FatPhil> mechanicjay: Ug - that Sanders quote-ish... you do realise that I live in what was the USSR?
[22:38:26] <mechanicjay> I may have known that at some point.
[22:39:20] <mechanicjay> how's your recovery into the western world of unbridled crony capitalism going?

[22:41:46] <FatPhil> mechanicjay: we're most influenced by Finland, where if you're found out for being corrupt, you take your row-boat into your lake, with your shotgun, and you don't come back.
[22:42:14] <FatPhil> Alas the seppuku aspect we haven't adopted
[22:42:43] <paulej72> I am not sure I can stop myself from poking, me likey big booms
[22:42:57] <FatPhil> But compared with Latvia and Lithuania we're remarkably non-corrupt.
[22:43:34] <FatPhil> I only rant at politicians once or twice a week for making decisions that make no sense at all unless there's secretly someone who benefits from them.
[22:44:35] <paulej72> wow that is pretty benign, i probably do it at least once a day in New Jersey
[22:45:20] <paulej72> I listen to talk radio in the morining and politics is a normal topic
[22:48:05] <FatPhil> I only read the local news once or twice a week!
[22:48:40] <FatPhil> and it's different rants each time, not just the same one repeated.
