I don't think they're phobic anything. I think you're a straight up crypto fascist.

Carbon credit and debit in double entry book keeping. Genius. It's likely how an actual carbon credit system would work and the entire reason for the confusion.

Now they need to just find an Asian person saying it's not a big deal so they can dismiss your comment.

I certainly can't imagine a word I couldn't define. Some words are defined by their interrelationship, and that can seem circular... but since that interrelationship is how we make sense of the world, I don't particularly see the problem. There's nothing fundamental about that.

I grew up with a racist uncle that rode a Harley, so hearing rice used like that is eyebrow raising for me. Everyone will have a different perspective though.

The judge and county attorney would likely be shielded by qualified immunity, in my opinion. The police chief who wrote the affidavit, executed the warrant, and ran his mouth on Facebook (he hasn't run his mouth since the county attorney withdrew the warrant for insufficient evidence btw) while having potentially ulterior motives might not find it so easy, however. Qualified immunity generally shields incompetence, but not malice.

Edit: I will note as an aside that the hotel already had a liquor license, the owner just didn't want to keep it under his name when the restaurant was the one running the bar.

In this interview, the subject of the Kansas Newspaper raid speculates that the motive comes from "a confluence of personal animus from the mayor, a personal attempt to intimidate us from the police chief, and basic incompetence from the judge and the county attorney." Judges and county attorneys/district attorneys being rubber stamps for corrupt cops have caused needless deaths and trampled on folks rights plenty in the past.

In the comments: crypto bros and privacy nerds have the same shit fight they always have in every brave post. I honestly don't think anyone even uses this browser and likely never will.

Tldr: pirates armed with daggers that prompt military action is actually a group of stowaways with two knives who cut a tarp where they were hiding so they could breathe and took no hostile action.
