16 THOUSAND citations.

She's approximately 260 times more successful than me, AND kicked this guy's ass. Fucking hell, I'm so envious right now.

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 51 points 2 months ago

Skill issue?

[–] Benjaben@lemmy.world 48 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's okay, you can even those numbers out by beating up more fascists!

[–] Yondoza@sh.itjust.works 25 points 2 months ago

1 fascist beating ~= 10 citations.

Get to it, bud!

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Her citations would make for great data is beautiful posts I bet.

In this paper, we present a novel approach to kick some nazi ass using a large broomstick from a car window.

He got off easy. He was this close to having a copy of "Braunwald's Heart Diease" slammed right onto his left ventricle. Watch out for that 11th edition. It's a doozy.

Ohh! Research citations!
For some reason I read that as police citations and was wondering how the hell she got so dangerously based.

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 23 points 2 months ago

Same here. I read it as: This lady has had 16,000 traffic citations and the driving gods miss selected "kill" in the drop down list when choosing her punishment and accidentally gave her Kung fu superpowers.

Worry not: soon the American authorities will treat the former pretty much the same as the latter.

Dude has a weapon and threatened people with it and cops were like "Alllrighty mister, unfortunstely Im going to have to ask you to come with us". Why were they so gent.....

Ohhh yeah

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 54 points 2 months ago (7 children)

To me, Kyle Rittenhouse trial has to be the most American thing ever, grabbing your assault rifle and heading into a heated situation for no reason whatsoever than that predictably resulting in a death and getting off scott free, that's something that can only happen in the USA

I've heard the Poet say that sometimes 'the very people who work in the forces are by happenstance the very same whomst're burning crosses' (citing from memory)

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 16 points 2 months ago

They’re getting better, they didn’t buy him lunch on the way back

Don't fuck with old hippies. Half of them have been on the front line of protest action since the 60s, and the other half are Vietnam vets. They will kick your ass.

[–] intelisense@lemm.ee 56 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Doctor of medicine, so there's a greater than zero chance she knows exactly where to hit him. Good on her, though - people need to take a stand.

Love the way that middle-aged woman took down that basement-dwelling neckbeard incel piece of trash.

She's never going to be able to wash the stink off though.

[–] frostysauce@lemmy.world 33 points 2 months ago (3 children)

She's 66, she's a senior citizen.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 56 points 2 months ago

May she live to 132.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 18 points 2 months ago

This Rick Fuze is possibly the most pathetic creature I have ever heard of.

I can't remember ever hearing of or witnessing anything quite this pointlessly mean spirited, weak, stupid, and regrettable.

I mean, when you attack a senior citizen, the best outcome as far as I'm concerned is obviously that the attacker loses. But for it to have actually happened, and in circumstances like this? Absolutely incredible.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I'd prefer we extend "middle age" out to 70. Signed, 54-yo dude.

[–] Trees@lemm.ee 42 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)
[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 42 points 2 months ago

She’s medically trained, so she knows where to hit him. In addition, there’s a lack of barrier to entering the physical space of strangers and physically touching them just in general. That barrier almost doesn’t exist for medical. The rest of the world, middle of the bell curve, hesitates.

And if she’s done direct patient care at any point in her career, there’s a good chance she has no patience left for shenanigans.

The moral dilemma of not doxing someone vs celebrating them...

[–] Dragonstaff@leminal.space 27 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Very good consideration. She did publicly acknowledge it on BlueSky, so I'll take that as permission.

Most conservatives I know who were in my state are no longer in my state. The remaining dumbass redhats complain non-stop about California.

People like this asshole need to get the fuck out. Fuck every last Trump supporter. Leave my state, Nazi comformists.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

Neck beards and maga...like pb&j.

[–] snekerpimp@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

That dude has the face of “MAMMA NOOOO!!”

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

what a legend

[–] barnaclebutt@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Do you think that she never wished AIDS on anybody in her life, and this time she was like, "I hope you get AIDS"?

[–] LesserAbe@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Did they add a stun gun sound effect to that video? Seems way too loud and crisp from that distance

[–] yuri@pawb.social 22 points 2 months ago (1 children)

microphones pick up stun guns like CRAZY

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It's basically a click/pop artifact generator. Also just fucking loud to begin with.

Her research makes it seem like she's also trying to kid HIV/AIDS ass.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 7 points 2 months ago

You don't mess with Mama Fratelli.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oh I thought 16,000 citations as if a citation was a fine you got for doing something illegal like demonstrating without a permit, and was like, damn, she gets around!

Not for nothing but I'd take that like a badge of honor.

Like getting the shit beat out of me by Minerva McGonagall. I'd let her. She could beat me up all night long. No doubt about it, absolute badass. Like when Molly Weasley killed Bellatrix. Idgaf how evil you are or how many curse words you know...nobody fucks with Ginny.
