An authoritarian typically keeps the military and police well-fed, or alternatively allows them to rob the plebs as they see fit. Otherwise bad things may happen to the emperor.

Unfortunately, Trump is likely to kick the bucket before he sees any blowback of this.

ICE had a signup bonus (dunno how much, $4000, I think?), and nobody received it yet.

The guy who is 'famous for not paying' is Trump, who has a history of being in debt/not paying his debts off.

[–] TwodogsFighting@lemdro.id 1 points 39 minutes ago

Gosh, who would've thought it.

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Afaik the bonus promised is 50k, which is a bit more significant. Leads to people joking that they'd like to join, get the bonus and then just not do the job.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago

You have to stay with the agency several years. The plan is to fire them before paying.

[–] doug@lemmy.today 127 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

sadly I would not put it past a lot of those psychopaths to do it for free.

[–] MTZ@lemmy.world 80 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

No doubt that some of them are doing it for the love of the game. 🫤

I was recently thinking, this recruitment drive must be heaven for the common proud boys brownshirt.

Who of them wouldn't sign up, they get to harm immigrants, they get cover from the very top if they catch public attention, they get gear, and they might even get paid for it.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 29 points 9 hours ago

Maybe some of them just show up in masks with their mallninjashit, and they’re not on the payroll and no one asks if they did the two week training.

[–] My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world 16 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

They'll just take a page out of Imperial Japan's warbook and resort to living off the land post-invasion.

The sooner they start living off the land, the better. And by that, I mean "swimming". Lash a bunch of them together to form an ICEberg.

[–] SanctimoniousApe@lemmings.world 7 points 12 hours ago

Assuming we manage to get a much more reasonable government in place in the coming years, hopefully they'll be the ones paying for what they're doing.

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 49 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

Is that from true lies?

I’m sure it’s Arnold’s face

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago

Boris and his wife, Doris.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 7 points 8 hours ago

Yeah it is. I saw that movie for my 12th birthday and it still holds a special place in my heart.

[–] Pudutr0n@lemmy.world 17 points 11 hours ago (4 children)

I think it is. Can't recall the exact scene though.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 26 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

When he uses a squad to break into Bill Paxton's sleazy getaway spot where he tries to seduce Jamie Lee Curtis. It's followed by this scene:

[–] saltesc@lemmy.world 6 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I think it's right when he sees someone's about to hurt her, so he hurts the guy or something, and the guy ends up getting kicked in the balls by Curtis. The scene ending with some awesome "action helicopter" cam of the extraction completed, home boy limping back to the heli holding his balls, "Son of a..."

It's such a well directed movie with perfect pace too. Even when it goes over top, it makes just enough fun of itself for doing so.

"That's a fine looking animal you got there!"

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

The opening scene

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 hours ago

The beginning at the fancy party that has snow outside?

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

It's where the squad attacked bill paxton when bill was trying to convince Jamie Lee Curtis to leave the country. They cut the trailer in half, bill fell on Jamie and tom flipped his shit, made this face.

[–] criss_cross@lemmy.world 32 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It’s even better because when they do get paid if they leave before their 5 years they have to pay back their bonuses INCLUDING tax.

So they’re kinda paying for the privilege of hunting minorities. Really sick to think about.

Where can I learn more about this?

A trump never pays his debts

"TNPD" doesn't roll off the tongue as well as "TACO", but I'll take it.

Pedos are like that. Diddy is well known for never paying anybody, which is why 50 Cent was given all of that footage.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 17 points 11 hours ago (5 children)

Ya know, I don't keep up with the rap world. The only "diddy" songs I know are a song from the 1998 Godzilla soundtrack, which uses a Led Zepplin sampled song as the basis for the song, and a collaboration with Lincoln Park where he uses a their entire song, with him replacing their lyrics with his own in which he calls all women bitches.

So my view of him from my vantage point is that he's unoriginal, and needs other peoples work to survive.

I know even less about 50 cent's music. I don't know a single song. I just know he got famous around 2007 for getting shot 7 times. But any idiot can get shot. Just ask Brett.

That being said, outside of music I know diddy used to host parties in which he needed 10,000 bottles of baby oil.

50 cent on the other hand I've been told got the creeps from diddy, and that led to some confrontation, which left 50 cent with a grudge. Then he said he felt happy taking diddy down, and was happy there were no more parties.

So even though I will probably never listen to a single one of his songs, and even though I can't imagine how or why I'd ever spend money on 50 cent, I can still say I at least respect the fact that he saw diddy as a creep who needed to be taken down. I can respect that. Even if the music isn't for me.

In hiphop a beatmaker is typically separate from the rapper. And outside hiphop, music writers and lyricists are often different people, plus covers exist (including those changing the lyrics). So him using others' music is the least problematic thing about him.

‘Gangsta's Paradise’ is considered a classic, but its entire music track and the vocal melody of the chorus are lifted from Stewie Wonder's ‘Pastime Paradise’.

[–] FerretyFever0@fedia.io 7 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I've never listened to any of Diddy's music. All I know is everything that's been revealed. Another important fact is that he paid to have Tupac killed for a million dollars. Funnily enough, he didn't pay that guy either. Also got Biggie killed. He's a piece of shit.

[–] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 2 points 4 hours ago

The only thing I know about all this nonsense is that on occasion you may find me in certain establishments, with a glass of champaign.

It's not often, but it does happen.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

50 cent on the other hand I've been told got the creeps from diddy, and that led to some confrontation, which left 50 cent with a grudge.

Diddy invited him to come shopping and then tried to pay for everything and didn't let 50 pay for anything. 50 recognized that Diddy was trying to trap him with favors and using social graces as a way to take advantage of 50.

It's like a meta-analysis of politeness in society by two people who are excellent at reading others.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 hours ago

Also 50 cent has a couple alright games. They aren't great but honestly for a celebrity game they're only outclassed by the Riddic games.

[–] bajabound@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

Unless I missed something that collaboration is jay z and Lincoln park. I assume it's points of authority/99 problems?
