I tried to watch that interview (not this well-deserved rebuttal, this original) and just couldn’t. Despite Callaghan and team’s best (sincere) efforts, Nick just comes off like the fucking moron he is.
Ignorant about the things he himself has chosen to squawk about, while also truly lacking the mental “equipment” to engage with the topics in any complexity.
Like, any complexity, he seemed completely unable to manage the difference between the ideas “95% of Somali immigrants are law-abiding” and (his claim) “89% of fraud in Minnesota is committed by Somalis”. Those can actually both be true and they aren’t even very complicated but it was too much for him.
To be clear I’m not weighing in on those stats whatsoever, just the fact that he could not navigate the nuances between them at all.
He’s not just wrong and hateful, he’s flat out incapable of understanding the exact phenomena that he somehow feels called to scrutinize and then scream about. I’d love to just call him a clown and move on but his flavor of horseshit is SO dangerous these days, as we see!
Holy shit, the dude grew up in a place called Farmington.
That’s the most made up sounding place name I’ve ever heard.
That’s a name I haven’t heard in a very long time.
I met my first love in that world. We lived in the wilderness and made a humble living fishing for crabs. One day I came back from the bank and found her missing, her items in a bundle, signs of a struggle, no replies in her PM. I searched the wastes for days, taking on multiple PvPs for any info about her. Finally, giving in to my grief, I set sail for Teardrop island to begin my fishing career anew, and when I stepped off that boat: - lo - there she was, garbed in fishwife attire, macking on that wretched curr McDichel as he enticed her with promises of boats and cider.
I haven’t logged in since.
I wondered about “California’s UPS with apartments above it”, so I searched. And, I found that Costco is building apartments above one of their stores.
Capitalism getting back to roots with indentured servitude just around the corner.
Is this the childless man who showed up to daycare centers with cameras and men in masks and then cried to the MAGA world when they like didn’t let a strange childless man who showed up with cameras and masked men in to film the children?
Which somehow captured the attention of the pedophile president who also didn’t realize that it’s not appropriate for childless men with cameras and masks to demand to be allowed entry to a daycare to film the children thereby leading to the current ICE invasion in MN and the deaths of multiple people?
In that case not only are people allowed to make fun of him but I am also declaring, yes DECLARING, that anyone and everyone can physically attack him in whatever way they see fit.
It has been DECLARED, no takesiebacksies.
LET ME SEE. THE. CHILDREN.
He shouted, his veins full of freedom.
No, they said in an evil, immigrant chuckle.
That’s Nick Shirley. Whose antics at daycare centers in Minneapolis led to ICE invading the city and murdering two American citizens.
He should be physically removed from any space he shows up in and punched in the fucking face.
I know he’s from an LDS family, and they are nominally teetotal, but I’m pretty sure this dude’s mom was on the hard sauce for all nine. I’m just a dude and not a doctor but that looks like FAS to me.
Which absolves him of nothing. Whatever his limitations he knows right from wrong and he’s a bigoted lying asshole who got folks killed. So I don’t really feel bad if his mommy marinated him in her secret schnapps stash.
Ex-Mormon here.
Mormons like to brag that their kids are healthier and smarter because their mothers are guaranteed to have had no exposure to alcohol or secondhand smoke.
Because of this, there is such a deep culture of shame around even drinking coffee or tea, because it breaks the health code of the religion. It’s treated with the same severity as eating pork if you’re Jewish or Muslim. No, not everyone does it. But the few who do will go to every length possible to hide it. I met a dude who used to call out sick and wear sunglasses and a wig when he bought caffeine pills at the grocery store. His wife divorced him over that.
If he does have FAS, I would bet you $100 right now that the only one who would know would be his mom, and she’ll take that shit to her grave.
