Crowder's kids were born in 2021 which he confirmed in the video was when she first filed for divorce so I can totally believe him thinking his kids are to blame for his marriage ending.

Update-he's an emotionally abusive piece of shit. Some choice quotes

In the video, he snaps at her to put on her gloves to give his dogs medicine, walk the dogs, and otherwise "perform wifely duties," as she is clearly emotionally distressed.
Towards the end of the exchange, Hilary Crowder says to her husband, "Your abuse is sick," he snaps at her, saying, "Watch it. Fucking watch it."
Moments later, off camera, Steven Crowder, by his admission, would lose control and scream at his pregnant wife in a threatening tone, "I will fuck you up," which led his wife to flee their home.
She was eight months pregnant during this.

FUCK. THAT.

I'm curious to see how many FB friends I lose from tonight's post that I'm safe to come out to or request a ride from for "out of state medical services".

I know a person in transition that was outed to their work before they were ready. Wife and I are pouring over her books to see what we can find to offer support knowledge from a legal standpoint. TBD.

Oh, for sure and from all accounts, in this particular instance, all accounts seem to say that all he was doing was shouting. My point is that the subway is a pretty dangerous place as is and filled with mentally ill people. With how many people are already on edge out of fear, it's understandable they would take the defensive.

But yeah, a sleeper hold for 15 minutes? That's just unnecessary.

I'm gonna bold a part of this so that I don't get misconstrued as saying that I think this is okay.

Most unhoused people at this point are literally incapable of making the decision to seek help. They've scooped up a lot of the people who were cognizant enough to make the decision not to be homeless. If you are not mentally ill and you're struggling there's lots of groups out there to help you. What's left on the street are mentally ill and/or drugged out people who are incapable of deciding anything for themselves. Someone has to step in to help them, but we don't want to. It costs too much or it's a civil rights problem so we just won't. We'll point at Reagan defunding shit even though its been 40 years since then. What excuse do we have for not fixing it? And we've decided as a society that homeless people are a class of people below every other class or race of people.

This killer committed manslaughter but he's never getting convicted of anything. Anyone who rides public transportation in a major American city knows that it's not safe. We decided that it is okay for people to be terrorized on public transportation. If I was a woman or if I was LGBT I would never get on a fucking train in NYC or LA, because something bad is overwhelmingly likely to happen to you. When did we decide that was fine? The inevitable end result is either that some homeless person pulls out a strap (yes, some of them are strapped) and shoots up an entire train car, or that someone kills a homeless person who was hounding people for money and/or terrorizing them.

This was inevitably going to happen. When a society decides that it's okay to let this many people be homeless and struggling we have completely lost our way. The killer should be in jail, but it's not happening. You can pull almost anyone off a random train car to ask them if they've seen some fucked up shit on the subway and they'll tell you they have. That doesn't mean someone should die for it, but this is all our faults. This also isn't the only time this will happen.

The homeless situation here completely fucks with my own ideas of civil liberties but I prefer not to bring it up. When the things that homeless people do infringe on other people's civil rights, when do you step in? A woman can't ride the Metro in LA without being harassed, without someone pulling out their dick, threaten to rape them, kill them, all that kind of shit. We'd rather just pretend it's not happening. Also, when it comes to the Metro, when most people see shit on there they don't report it because why would you get a cop involved, they either won't do anything or they'll overreact.

Problem is IMO the tendency to blame the homeless themselves more than the conditions that create homelessness. When you treat people like they’re subhuman, how do you think they are going to act in response?

The problem is obviously capitalism, but people usually only see what's right in front of them. There are some people who just aren't as mentally equipped as everyone else. We have decided that means you should be ostracized. When it comes to how the public feels about homeless people, what I don't care about isn't the same that applies to everyone else. When I see a homeless person doing weird shit I expect it. When they see a homeless person doing a bad thing on the subway it traumatizes them and completely changes their opinions. Unfortunately that's why they also won't find a willing jury to convict this guy. If you live in NYC or LA and you haven't seen some fucked up shit on public transportation you have lived a very sheltered life. Maybe this killer hadn't been on there very much and wasn't ready for it. I don't know.

I just saw the NYC subway video, that’s murder imo. He even gets warned about it on video. He is completely detached from caring.

Anyone that’s trained in choking people like he is, they know what they’re doing when someone goes limp. It’s natural human instinct to let go at that point. For him to hold on, knowing the consequences, that’s murder to me.

Turkey heading to a second round of voting in the election it sounds like as Edrogan falls under 50 percent which hasn't happened to him in any of his previous elections.

I've had enough friends on antidepressants to know that long-term usage, especially the wrong dosage or type, can lead to some very, very bad thoughts. None of them have harmed anyone else.

Maybe RFK Jr. is just a fucking idiot?
