[16:18:43] <chromas> Too political. It's only good if it shits on the current guy, not the one before
[16:53:53] <Ingar> that's what they mean, they updated the censoring rules to align with the current administration
[16:54:32] <Ingar> and, still laughing at the US' democrat vs republican dichotomy
[16:55:53] <ted-ious> Ingar: You aren't suggesting that our 2 party system is just controlled opposition are you?
[16:57:26] <chromas> Bureaucracy embiggens itself
[16:58:16] <Ingar> ted-ious: no, rather making fun of the populace that fight amongst themselves over apples and oranges while they actually should eat a banana. or some nuts.
[16:58:49] <ted-ious> That sounds like the same thing. :)
[16:59:43] <Ingar> but it is the taste that matters!
[17:00:33] <Ingar> ofc I also should have said they fight over nuts and bananas, far more in line with the current situation
[17:00:53] <Ingar> but I wouldn't suggest they eat oranges
[17:02:27] <Ingar> ted-ious: our elected nationalist govt that promised us to save more money just announced their plan on how to tax the poor to give it to the rich
[17:18:30] <ted-ious> Ingar: Have you tried turning your government off and unplugging it?
[17:19:25] <kolie> They tried adding lead. It didn't take.
[17:25:30] <Ingar> ted-ious: no, I started my independence movement for my province
[17:28:27] <ted-ious> Excellent. :)
