I simply cannot agree with your premise when increasingly large groups of deviants and pedophiles are using "early porn introduction" or EPI, as a method of grooming children online.

If we lived in a world where those people did not exist, I would be inclined to side with you, but we do need a bar set to keep the trash out.

To be clear, I am not of the opinion that the Australian bill is something that needs passed to protect muh kids or what have you. I am merely pointing out the hypocracy of Youtube being regulated as a social media platform, but not Pornhub, despite Pornhub having very similar features as Youtube, the only difference being the focus of content.

As an aside, if Australia's Pornhub is anything like the US's, a "Yes, I am 18" button shouldn't fly. If one can't just proclaim to be of legal age for alcohol, tobacco, etc and must prove their age, why should online pornography be any different?

Nah, it's a social media platform. Not only are you allowed to upload non-explicit content, IE there are gaming lets-plays of otherwise SFW games, the platform has a very active commenting section.

If those criteria are good enough for Youtube to be blocked for underaged viewers on the basis that social media harms them, Pornhub meets the exact same criteria.

Also, not America.

Minor nitpick, Kerrygold is not an alternative to butter, it's just another option of butter.

Doing some slight digging, it's not heavy metals but the "forever chemical" buzzwords that liberal media throws around so much. Apparently there is a lawsuit by CA and NY for PFAS found in the wrappers and the holding company's lack of labelling the product as containing it.

That's to be expected though? CA, OR, WA are "officially" deep blue.

Everyone wants a handout nowadays, wouldn't be suprised if some day they start doing that!

And circling back to the comment OP's point, who says that they can't be caught off guard again?

I am very much of the opinion currently that if there is a blackhat plan in play right now, it's going to be of the lawfare/subterfuge variety. Just the messaging from party faces like Obama, Harris and the like show that they may be treating election night as a lost cause, and are looking at other options in the near future.

Lets not sit here and pretend that cheating is some new phenomenon however. Even as far back as the 60s there were questions about JFK's election being rigged.

If the elections have been rigged for so long, why would DJT have made it in 2016's general, much less the primary?

Wow, that shows how much of a dated period piece that book is. The book is clearly written from a anti-Free Silverite point of view, because it adopts every single flawed argument about muh inflation and muh economic disaster.

I was actually looking at that, apparently the IRS in it's infinite wisdom DEBOOONKED that and will charge you $5000 if you use that as a reason for not filing/"frivolously filed".

Don't question why the agency in charge of executing the 16th guards the 16th amendment so jealously, it makes total sense...

Of course, there is nothing in the 16th amendment that says that income tax must be collected, only that Congress "shall have power" to levy income taxes.

All you'd need to do is either repeal the income tax law itself, or render the IRS effectively inoperable, to get a similar, although temporary, effect.

This reads like massive schizoposting. A "performance artist" takes one long running project and uses it to advertise another project of the creator's, and people are falling over each other saying "OMG the AI are creating their own religions!!!"

Mayhaps a comparative vs absolute statement? Do remember that his "opposition" was McCain and Romney, both of which makes nearly anyone a charismatic titan versus those 2 limp noodles.

TBH though, most of the world's tapped energy supplies are already defacto government monopolies via licensing schemes, so positing needing to control energy supplies as a requirement to undermine Bitcoin ain't exactly a strong point.

Shit don't get me started on Harbor Freight, during my time there Corporate was breathing down everyones neck to gather as much personal information as they could from customers.

Last I remember, 80% name "capture" and email "capture" was demanded, no ifs and or buts.

Interesting fact, the CMOS sensors actually pick up more than the human eye does, including infrared and some ultraviolets, so camera manufactures actually include light filters to correct for this discrepancy.

You can actually see older TV remotes that use infrared LEDS flash if you use the selfie camera on a lot of phones.

Ok? I'm not sure what you mean by "It was a trap", it was just an honest question of why there was no flash of light like in this atomic test video, ~1:40 rough timestamp.

Not once did I mention the artifacting of the camera, please do not put words into my mouth.

With the Yemen video, where is the heavy light output that is typical for nuclear reactions? You have lasting incandescense of the debris cloud typical of large explosions, but no ultra-bright flash associated with really any nuclear reaction useful for bomb making.
