When I was in, the bs spewed was that you should vote Republican to get pay increases because the Dems won't do it. Of course the GOP also likes to chip away at the VA and other veteran aftercare. We also had personnel equipment shortages like armor during OEF/OIF and Congress just shrugged.

Unfortunately there are a lot of impressionable kids and they pass the same dumbassery on when they are old timers. It is effective because you're basically indoctrinated to trust senior leaders.

The US bicameral system is the House and the Senate (a two chamber legislature).

What system is the better alternative that we should riot about? You said it and I'm just asking you to explain.

Who wants to change the bicameral system? Is that a new popular trend? What's the better alternative?

I don't know much about it but I assume it would be any texts white washing history. As an example I grew up in the south and learned about John Brown and Harriet Tubman with basically facts that can be regurgitated. Nothing diving into the day-to-day hardships and anything sounding too sympathetic.

The rationale for the civil war was white washed to "state's rights" and specifically "slavery wasn't the major cause". For 'what" state's rights obviously due to economic ones because the north was purposely attempting to keep the south down.

Another example was that slaves had a better life as slaves and many came back! The 'silent racism' of the North was even worse than the South's violent racism because in the South they could live (in slavery) while on the North they will be destitute and invisible.

The point being, if it's attempting to redo that, then it is the overall message and subtext of the curriculum.

Hopefully, we start seeing civil rights lawsuits for the usual -- 4th and probably 5th Amendment violations. You know, the classics.

I can't keep up with the propaganda from the GOP.

Sometimes Russia and China are omnipotent and scary bad guys that can do anything. Then sometimes they are bumbling and dumb bad guys that just can't do anything right. In the case of Russia, sometimes they are the misunderstood good guys.

Oh and I forgot, where does the US right stand on Jews now? They were the bad guys faking history but in the last few years they are the good guys. Now that indiscriminate killing in Gaza is over, is the GOP going back to the status quo of pre-2023? After Musk's salutes and the response from the right it does seem like that is going to be the case.

The GOP fanfic of the world is just so confusing and ever changing.

You are wrong. Until recently Windows did not natively support 7z or unrar.

A) it's fake. The specific squadron would be called out explicitly on that memoradum. Paragraph 1 would definitely have to referenced at least 3 AFIs and paragraph 2 would have definitely (especially being an SFS Memo) disclosed punishment via the UCMJ.

B) that copy paste memo indicates it is from a local security forces commander and definitely not the USAF.

I know it's supposed to be a joke but I figure I'd note the amount of fakery here since there's always this kind of mythos that lives a long life.

Everything from the supposed sanctioned DOD standard of 7 wipes of a disk (never was a thing -- The Orange Book/NISPOM on e referenced a study by Gutmann in the 90s), that basically training issues stress cards to trainees (been a rumor as if fact since the early aughts and I'm sure earlier), that's there's a single bullet and 9mm gun at the top of the flag pole at base command, that the Etherbunny was a thing that happened to a friend's roommate, that the country will take care of you after you serve and perhaps worst of all -- Marines don't literally eat crayons and it is just a joke.

I was born after 1980. It isn't definitely generation x because the definition has changed since millennials were called generation y/why. So a person born in 1981 would have been 28 years old in 2009. It doesn't change anything.

It's already illegal in some form. Via piracy of the works and regurgitating protected data.

The issue is mega Corp with many rich investors vs everyone else. If this were some university student their life would probably be ruined like with what happened to Aaron Swartz.

The US justice system is different for different people.

If millinial births start in 1980 then a millinial could have been 29 in 2009.

I bought my house in 2009 and I was really lucky because I wouldn't have been able to afford one precrash. It was actually cheaper to have a mortgage on a house than rent in many 2 bedroom 800 sq. Ft. apartments in my area. Cheaper than some 1 bedrooms in certain areas around here.

For a few years after 2009 interest rates and prices were low enough much more affordable than now.

My situation then is not the situation most millennials find themselves in just a few short years after and certainly not now, especially since I'm an old ass millinial.

I make 6 times what I did when I bought my house and my means is roughly the same plus a car payment basically. My house is worth much much more than what I mortgaged.

A million back then could have given you a lot, lot more structure and a lot more land. Now it'll get you around a 2700 sq. ft. house on an 4th of an acre in a neighborhood in my area. Less than an hour down the road you'll get a shitbox in the hood.

This article is just full of so much shit relative to the normal person. But then that's not the target audience. It's just there so Gen Xers and Boomers will continue to subscribe and just drives the "if millinial weren't stupid and lazy they'd have the same opportunities as we did." propaganda.
