I had an uncle just like this. He spent all his time listening to conservative AM radio, which he proudly called “hate radio”. He died of who knows what alone in his trailer in Florida and wasn’t discovered for two months because nobody gave a shit about him. My other uncle tried to rehab the trailer (which would have maybe been worth five grand) but gave up because the smell was too horrifying. My dad inherited a small bag of his belongings and the stench on those things was unimaginable.

Or wargaming, which is a type of model railroading.

They take up mental railroading instead?

Of course, the idea that the President’s head can just explode for no reason in view of the public, and by implication, so can anyone else’s at any time, is far more existentially terrifying than any assassination plot, so, to avert mass panic and social collapse, the FBI hurriedly framed some local weirdo, and then killed him before anyone could flag that he probably had nothing to do with it, which is the only reason why everyone’s life savings still had any value afterwards.

Are we sure it wasn’t a pre-existing condition?

So in Seattle last week there was a man who accidentally shot himself in the leg while driving his car. He called 911 because he obviously needed help, but tried to tell cops that he was shot by a stranger while driving. They asked why there were no entry holes in his car, and I think he went to jail for being a dumbass.

Anyway, how do we know JFK didn’t accidentally shoot himself and then try to cover it up because he was so embarrassed.

I took physics in high school, so I’m basically a qualified expert. I can confirm that quantum mechanics tell us that this is possible. Exceedingly unlikely, but possible.

This is why it’s important to listen to the eyewitnesses. Their perspective might not be perfect, but it’s authentic.

He moonlighted as a drummer for Spinal Tap.

I indeed have read somewhere a long time ago (i think back in Usenet days) the conspiracy theory that JFK INDEED was not killed but this whole thing was just a stunt to push his political agenda further and let him retire in peace (you know, like Elvis did).

That’s an SNL joke that made it’s way into Family Guy.

cant dx schizophrenia without more info. all we can identify is a few reported symptoms from a third party. the secret messages are called Loose Associations and that with the persistence of belief in the face of evidence to the contrary indicates a delusional belief, but those can occur in several psychotic disorders. for schizophrenia we’d at least need to confirm two out of three of bizarre motor activity, disorganized speech, and preferably some negative (withdrawing) symptoms like flat affect, avolition, etc

That means anon is genetically more likely to develop either/both too.

If any of you all have a family member suffering from those you should avoid triggers that can cause onset on an early age like smoking weed, especially under 25 years old.

not necessarily schizophrenia, but likely another psychotic disorder. possibly delusional disorder if no other symptoms are met. schizophrenia has several criteria that must be met beyond delusions

For what?

The Rwanda genocide was the Hutu “people” genociding the Tutsi “people”.

I say “people”, because both of those demographics are almost entirely artificial and were created by the ruling class in the late 19th century based mostly on the criterium of “Do you own cattle?”, and then exploited and the split enlarged first by german colonizers and then by the belgians. The belgians then made it official by printing it on their mandatory ID cards.

And of course, both the Germans and the Belgians preferred the wealthy, cattle-owning tutsi minority over the poorer hutu majority. And when the white colonizers left, the hutu’s decided to grab some power back… with genocide.
