If you stopped conflating everything maybe people would think more of your opinion?
Calm down boy. The word Nazi was used in a figurative way. I doubt an old fat man would be allowed to join the Sturmabteilung. They only wanted people who could go out and beat heads.

Why do you defend Nazis?

I'm merely using the word Nazi as a common figurative form of speech and so not slandering you.

Just saying. You should stop defending Nazis.
I understand, there is a proud liberal tradition of demeaning serious words like Nazi and racist. I don't agree with this but who am I to blow against the winds of false outrage? May you and buck enjoy each other, you certainly deserve each other!

Slew rate is how fast you can get to 60 mph
Dynamic range is the 0 to 60 range kinda
In TV's it's how well they can reproduce total black to white. Lcd TV's have poor dark scene performance generally. But a good viewing angle without color shifts etc. The plasma TV's have a better dynamic range but other issues. Aging is one. Oleds one of the newest techs actually have almost microscopic red green and blue LEDs on a grid. Shitloads. They actually drive them harder or lighter depending on the scene. The problem is the small rgb LEDs get warm and fade in some situations. They age fairly quickly. Dimmer and dimmer. Red first. So the one young man at Best buy that now manufacturers are starting to pulse or modulate the drive to help a bit. But still risky. My kids would never act like those youngsters. I've voted both ways. But respecting people is the first thing to teach kids. Don't take others toys etc. Even my grandkids aren't as respectful as I was when their age. But my dad had a belt.
My mom used my dads :( it was 48” x 1” lol

I generally expect teen boys to say stupid stuff and don't pay it much attention. Also sounds like more fake news so excuse me for not piling on.

As for the second question, maga is a political slogan used previously by republican and democrat presidents, I afford it the same meaning as hope and change, I'm with her.
It means something totally different now IMO and yes they say stupid things and if you stop paying attention they just keep saying them.

You can use information to stop being ignorant or you can ignore information and just embrace you ignorance.
It seems you decided the latter
Nathan Phillips, man at center of standoff with Covington teens, misrepresented his military history

I think I will pass on a twitter account being my source. The Washington post article also does not say that he said he spent time in Vietnam. It actually confirms what he said Vietnam Time Vet
He does say he was a Vietnam time vet. Which is the same as a Vietnam era vet. You did not have to serve in theater to be classified as such. I thank the man for his service. Which branch of service did you serve whilst you bash this mans service time.

From the Washington post article you claimed to read
“I’m a Vietnam vet . . . I got an honorable discharge, and one of the boxes in there shows whether it is peacetime or what my box says is that I was in theater,” he said. “I don’t talk much about my Vietnam times. I usually say I don’t recollect. I don’t recall those years.”

Phillips, who turns 64 next month, is not old enough to have deployed to Vietnam as a Marine infantryman. His lack of deployments mean that he was never “in theater
Phillips has been lying about this for years. He claimed to have been spat on by a hippy girl when he Returned back from combat back in 2008

Phillips used his fake Vietnam credentials when he went Infront of the world and lied about the encounter with the kids.

In doing so he's put them in danger and probably affected the rest of their lives...

Tell me again how I need to have served to question a fridge repairman

You have turned this into an attack on Phillips.

So very much right wing tactic when they have no facts in an argument.

pointing out Phillips lies hardly an attack

Are you claiming now that the Washington post article is a right wing attack?
