Best part of this thread is all the people pointing out the title of the thread has nothing to do with what was actually passed because the language is literally not in the bill.  

OP eventually comes around:

I'll take the L on this(I should've re-read it again & again before making the thread, I apologize for that) & ask for a mod to change the title of the thread to, "Washington State Puts Potential Ban on 3D Printed + CNC Guns."(or a better title than that if a mod comes up with a better one) since I can't change the thread title myself

Maybe to be clear, I don't believe this Iranian spokesperson has any valuable insight into US intelligence. Despite the morons at helm, I think it's still way to advanced for any Iranian intelligence service to penetrate it. But I won't rule out a false flag when a terrorist attack would happen on US soil, especially when it is seemingly designed to rally support for this deeply unpopular war. My opinion of this administration is essentially rock-bottom, it can't go any lower. I don't think they value life, even that of US citizens, at all.

Guyz!  Stop with the false flag conspiracy nonsense!  Oh, you think it's possible because America is so bad.  Ok, well I tried.  I wish we could make this forum less conspiratorial. But what can I do?  SIGH.

So BDubs just gives up in moderating the forum. Feels like he just prays that effingvic don’t shoot a synagogue and ruin the forum.

The Iranian government lie as much as Trump, but somehow they are trustworthy.

[benji]

Why would a false flag operation be needed when the US is already engaged in kinetic actions and it's been US policy for nearly half a century to destroy the Islamic Republic including literally sanctioning the entire countries economy into the ground under Obama? And nobody of any relevance in Congress opposes any of this in the first place?

Yuck. Cracker Awards, I know, but still. Yuck.

The movie stars four black women and Benicio Del Toro.

Prime example that these people don't even read or know what they are bitching about and are just mindlessly riding the assumed zeitgeist wave.

Nah, this is mad dismissive. As you're a white Italian American, I don't think you can make that call.

Two things:

1) BabyDontHurtMe is Italian!?  

2) Messy getting salty because he was called out as only watched YouTube commentary.

[benji]

The film's handling of racial themes has been criticized, particularly with regards to the character of Perfidia Beverly Hills and the ways in which Perfidia is sexualized by two white men (DiCaprio and Penn's characters, the latter a white supremacist), even opining that the character is a sex criminal.[159][162][163] In November 2025, Taylor rejected these critiques, stating, "Is that not what Black women go through? We are fetishized [...] and we are, unfortunately, the least protected people. Showing what Black women go through, that's a hard reality to accept. And this movie should spark debate, I always knew it would, because sometimes you just got to shake the table."[164] In January 2026, Taylor reiterated and shared further thoughts toward the criticism, mentioning that the topic came up during a previous interview. "Another person interviewed me and mentioned something about Perfidia and how people felt like she was overly horny. And I'm like, do you realize the first thing we see of Perfidia is her having a gun to a guy's head, and he calls her 'sweet thing'? Are you — are we watching the same film?", Taylor questioned. From her perspective, Taylor felt Perfidia was weaponizing her sexuality against her enemies, stating, "Perfidia kind of dived into the, 'Oh, you think I'm hot? All right, bet. Cool if I get to still do what I'm doing'." She also explained that the decisions Perfidia makes in the film are done out of her struggle to survive, stating, "It will never be a moment of judgment, because a lot of her mistakes have come from her being in survival mode dealing with postpartum depression and the title of being a strong woman—a strong Black woman. We don't get the same amount of compassion as everybody else. We don't get the same amount of grace as everybody else. Everybody just assumes we're okay."[165] In February 2026, Taylor once again defended the film's depiction of Perfidia and rejected the criticism, stating that the character "is so misunderstood, but most importantly, human, and so raw. And she is unapologetically herself", adding, "I feel like sometimes people just write her off as like, she's just horny [...] Perfidia became a revolutionary because of the things that she believes in. You see her mom saying Perfidia comes from a long line of revolutionaries. That in itself, to any woman, any person, is also a pressure. So not only is she carrying it on, it is instilled in her, and now it's become a part of her identity."[166]

Furthermore, right-wing commentators have criticized One Battle After Another for its sympathetic portrayal of violent anti-fascist revolutionaries, especially in the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the 2025 Dallas ICE facility shooting, both of which happened after production on the film wrapped. Commentators on the right, far right, and alt-right have also accused it of being a "left-wing" film made for left-wing elites.[168][169][170] Such commentators included David Marcus and Ben Shapiro, with the latter calling the film "an apologia for radical left-wing terrorism".[169] Additionally, film critic Armond White of National Review described the film as "openly seditious".[171]

Tough crack intersectionality cookie.

They always use such inflammatory language in everything, that way if you disagree they can come after you for dismissing concerns, jokers.

Bonus Bdumbs post crying again outing his community in the process

Honestly, and I say this as someone who definitely disagrees with Chalamet, but it kinda feels like people are so used to being mad at people because they say bigoted stuff that when something like this comes along, a random stupid take, that they just don't know how to handle it in a reasonable way. I've seen bigotry invoked in this discussion twice in the last page or so and my brain is just fried.

He's wrong and it's a stupid take that I very much disagree with, but it really feels like people need to learn about how to handle basic disagreements because, holy crap. We gotta stop going to 11.

Oof, dangerous idea there. Much better to maintain solidarity with the mass line than show your whole ass by dabbling in revisionist strains of thought. This is why constant self-criticism is so important to maintaining revolutionary praxis, to purge oneself of reactionary tendencies that may have snuck in through the algorithms or sources who have yet to go fully mask off as chuds.

Interesting, I've never heard much about this mass line before. Do you have more information? Perhaps blogs or 3 hour youtube videos that can explain what im supposed to be for this time?

What's funny about the OBAA criticism is that they often ignore what they actresses themselves thought. There's one character called "jungle pussy" which really upset some people and then it turns out that's actually the rap persona of the actress who plays her

Makes me think of this Key and Peele classic

B-Dubs is right in the sense that everyone has now learned the modern vocabulary of oppression, so instead of just being mad at Timmy people will claim that he's"punching down" and that's of course much worse because "punching down" is also when Trump mocks disabled people. This sort of vocabulary really just appears anywhere now. Recently there was an article about how the costumes in Wuthering Heights "don't owe you historical accuracy". It's not just people who are victims anymore, it's concepts

Not sure how Kat can be taken seriously when she sleeps through campaign events. At least it makes me question her ability to represent the district.

She has clinical narcolepsy.

 User Banned (2 Weeks): Ableist commentary over multiple posts

That does not change my feelings on the matter. If it's a problem now, I don't see how it won't be a problem if she is elected.

It's something she literally can't help, but it doesn't change her extremely progressive views and policies she would push for.

Biss is also progressive but has experience. If Kat gets more experience and shows that sleeping through a campaign events was an exception, I'd gladly strongly consider voting for her in a future election.

Wanted to start Mirage 7, but Norton spazzed out over it.

So instead I ended up going back to Wicked Seed. An update in Feb introduced backtracking to the early areas, so I could grab my missing collectible, plus the armor mod that lets me restore HP on brutal attacks.

I also have a lot of weaker starter enemies to beat on now; so I figured I may as well grind out the "kill 75 enemies with Weapon X" achievements. Thankfully, the equipment upgrade system is generous, so I can bust the weapon I'm not using down to 0 upgrades and get all my scrap back to use on a new gun. Basically, I'm using the endgame shotgun to take enemies down, then insta-switch to the gun I'm grinding which is specced to do extra damage to Staggered enemies, and do subsequently more damage with longer attack chains.
3 guns to go before I I'm ready for the last boss encounters. Good thing fast travel makes enemies respawn, so I can pick a route with max number of encounters to do this quick.

I still wanna do an NG+ run on the harder Dispair difficulty I'll be unlocking (currently playing on Hard), b/c like a third of the unlockable costumes are found only on Dispair; but it should be a lot quicker. Might do a no heals/only use starter equipment run, too, but on Normal.
