    If I have a little news vlog where I show a picture of some idiots saying "death to all jews" and I ridicule them as idiots, is that bad?

    If you paid them to say it in the first place, then yes. Pretty bad. Read the story more closely.

    Context matters! Malicious editing matters.

    Sponsorship matters, when your income depends on it. And now the sponsorship is gone.

    Leftists: "BAWW EVERYTHING EVERYONE DOES THAT I DON'T LIKE IS FASCIST."

    You know who else wanted everybody to get over it?

    The fascists.

    Fortunately for Europe, they didn't get over it until every fascist was pounded into the ground or surrendered. History repeats itself.

    However, do you truly believe that he's a neo nazi?

    It doesn't matter if he's a neo-nazi. He put some shit on his little web video and now nobody wants to advertise with him. He made a choice. They made a choice.

  5. Here in Houston we can still get the Blackhawks audio on the WGN app, thankfully.

    Are you a Chicago-Houston transplant too? I enjoyed the other night when it was like 75 at 8pm and I could listen to the Blackhawks in the backyard in my shorts in early February. Back in Chicago, I lived walking distance from the United Center and went to 'Hawks games all the time. Now that I think about it, since they usually make it into the playoffs, I could listen to them in June sometimes, which can be shorts and backyard weather in Chicago.

    Is KUHF the one that carries Democracy Now radio? I've only been down here since August, and I've found a few cool things on radio, like the weekend Zydeco show and a blues show and a weak signal on 610 or 650 that plays classic country (the real old good stuff) sometimes at night. There's a jazz station that plays sort of "lite jazz" most of the time but sometimes has some serious jazz programmed.

    I wonder why they just don't but HD-radios in cell phones. It multiplies the number of stations you can pull in and the sound is very good.

  6. Even if I could listen to FM radio, why would I? Honestly, I don't even use the radio in my car anymore. It's been ten years or more since I listened to the radio.

    One reason only: local sports. If I'm in Chicago and want to hear Blackhawks, Bears, Cubs or Sox games, I can hear them for free on the radio, but if I want to use an app, I need a subscription and I still get the same commercials (except for the Blackhawks, which are carried for free on the WGN app).

    Here in Houston, I can hear every Rockets game on the radio, but if I want to watch on TV, it costs money (and I still get all the commercials).

    Slovenia was communist, and it was part of Yugoslavia when Melania was peddling her ass over there. While Yugoslavia was technically an "independent" state, it was really just a satellite of the USSR.

    How does owning businesses in a country make you a "puppet" of that country's leader?

    Not owning businesses, but owing money.

    Just keep an eye on the news. Michael Flynn is already the THIRD member of the Trump organization that has resigned due to inappropriate ties to Russia. There's been Manafort, Page and now Flynn. If you think that's the last shoe to drop, you're in for a surprise.

    I find it interesting too that Trump turned off the White House recording system when he had his phone call to Putin, and the Trump dossier is now lining up nicely with the timeline we're learning about. Don't blame me, I'm just customer service. I didn't make you install President Malware.

  15. Comedy = Tragedy + Time.

    Irony wasn't invented by people under thirty. I don't know if you've ever seen The Producers or Charlie Chaplin's The Dictator, but it's possible to lampoon something and be critical of it. By using #MAGA, I thought it would be clear enough that I was making fun of comments - real comments - that are seen every day online from members of the alt-right like Stormfront, the KKK and other Trump supporters. And are too often seen right here on Slashdot.

    I'm sorry if I offended you, coastwalker, I didn't mean to. I have family members who died fighting Nazis and I understand that there is a resurgence of nazism today. I make fun because it's too late in the evening for me to go out and punch some Nazis, which is the appropriate response from anyone who values civil society and freedom. Plus, here in Houston, Nazis don't generally advertise themselves because there are still enough armed WWII vets that some angry nonagenarian might ventilate their asses.

    General Michael Flynn's tenure as NSA adviser is the shortest in US history (24 days). The previous record-holder was 348 days (Reagan's first NSA director). And I guarantee that Reagan's NSA director didn't resign because he was too cozy with and taking money from the Russians.
