What the government labels don’t tell you:

That picture is great.

Question: can it be said, that patriotism is only “less offensive” nationalism?

That sounds about right

Soylent Pink. There really are no limits to how far these mf will abuse the populace. Anyone who thinks this is “the free market” is out of their flippin’ gourd. It was not until USDA protection was secured that the company responsible for this pink shit - “Beef” Products Inc. - dared to start selling it for human consumption.

If - as they claim - it’s “just beef”, why is limit it to 15%? What’s wrong with 100%? The foul odor of ammonia wafting off your hamburgers might be a bit of a giveaway.

And these assholes intentionally confuse the statistical idea of inevitable contaminants in the ppm or ppb with 15% dilution of food with toxins. There is a clear distinction. Ammonia is toxic.

I read one article that said a prison kitchen alerted the USDA because they thought the beef from BPI was foul or poisonous because of the powerful ammonia odor coming off it. What irks me about the American attitude about prisoners is this smug indifference to the plight of innocents who are falsely imprisoned. We know there are innocents in prison because humans are not infallible. Yet we feed them poison not fit for animal consumption because, well, after all, they’re criminals!

This picture has been making it’s shares across FB, just something that looks pretty awesome.

It’s one of these.

There’s one thing I don’t understand about the post-Fukushima backlash. There’s an earthquake, and suddenly everyone is like “Oh noes, nuclear energy is dangerous!”. Haven’t they understood that there was a fricking earthquake? Why does that make nuclear plants unsafe that aren’t on top of fault zones? Is this just a convenient excuse, or what?

Or that the Fukushima plants failed for a very specific reason: The loss of electricity from shutting down the reactors and the destruction of the backup generators lead to a loss of coolant circulation. Those plants were something like 40 years old, and were planned for decommissioning. Newer designs don’t require electricity to feed water into the cores, and can be cooled via gravity feed, basically rendering the Fukushima scenerio impossible.

Millions of Americans are preparing for doomsday

Even Lew Rockwell knows shit’s going to hit the fan.

Even Lew Rockwell?” Because he’s usually soooo ignorant?

Because Lew doesn’t seem like someone sympathetic towards survivalism.

F4M, do you even read LRC? Pardon me, but the consistency of the ignorance you display on the subjects you discuss honestly astounds me. It’s as if you were raised in Soviet Russia, except Soviet Russia is constantly touting anarcho-primitivist propaganda.

I blame F4M’s troubles to a strong tendancy towards cofirmation bias, and the abundance of primitivist stuff on the web. Anyone can immerse themselves in a self-confirming information bubble with the amount of content on the internet.

When are we going to reach the consensus to just completely ignore the guy? Even when you call him out on stuff he never answers your questions (which he’s done to JJ and I). He’s hell bent that the way of life that’s provided him with everything he has is evil and collectivist, and would rather resort back to the stone age. I’m surprised he’s stayed around on this forum for so long.

Maybe it’s his job. :-X

Peter actually had some stage time at the same event:

Even when you call him out on stuff he never answers your questions (which he’s done to JJ and I).

And you never answer my question about why it’s wrong to live off the grid.
