For my fellow Europeans: 1600 miles is roughly 2575km.

For comparison, the distance between London and Istanbul is 2498km or the equivalent of about 1,250,000 large bananas.

Edit: corrected decimal error ~~to protect secrecy of banana warfare project~~ for accuracy

No, not Constantinople, if you have a date in Constantinople you'll have to meet up in Istanbul, there's no more Constantinople.

Why did Constantinople get the works?

Pretty sure both of them are the same distance away from London regardless.

its funny how some people have such dedication when it comes to committing mass murder.

It's not like that far fetched when you consider that ''bombingham'' Alabama was being hit by KKK terrorist attacks only one grandma ago.

Timothy McVey or however he spelled it, was also trying to spark a race war, had copies of pages from The Turner Diaries in the van, so if he died in the process people would get why. Thats only two thirds of a dad away.

No he wasn't. He suffered from PTSD from the Gulf war. He was convinced that Ruby ridge and Waco were examples of the government turning against the people and became radicalized. His.motive was to send a message to the people that they were living in what he perceived as a tyrannical fascist state causing them to rise up. Race wasn't a factor.

Kangaroo hops? Is that what you use to make beer down under?

[–] Viking_Hippie 4 points 6 months ago

I dunno, somewhere between 12 and a billion? 🤷

I see you have some American in you, if you are using nonmetric units of measurement.

Also for your fellow europeans? Geoblocking! Propably just exactly what it says though.

[–] Viking_Hippie 3 points 6 months ago

Every time I see a geo block I get more radicalized against copyright laws, corporate profiteering and corrupt politicians.

And I was already at an 8 on a scale from Hakeem Jeffries to Burn It Down when they became common a few years to a decade ago..
