Same kind of reaction as when a grenade gets thrown into a room. We just have video footage of it now. It's a fucked way to go, but they could have avoided it...
The best time to plant a tree was yesterday. The next best time is today. As you point out, this doesn't get better if we keep doing the same thing. So now is the time.
There are more jews against the Israeli government at this point than for it. Yes he'd need to walk a line but that's true of any campaign. The line he's on right now sure as hell ain't working.
I helped run the phone lines for Biden in 2020. And what did I get? I got shit on. I got to watch my country participate in a fucking genocide. You don't get to support that and then claim it's some radical minority that's the problem. The majority of non republicans want him to at least condition aid if not stop it all together at this point. All he has to do is follow the already written laws he's been ignoring.
Well they didn't listen when we did vote so fuck em. And no, participating in Capitalism is not an endorsement of capitalism. Never was, never will be, because participation is enforced.
Oh no we can't do the right thing now! We did the wrong thing 100 years ago and the rules of consistency mean we must keep doing the wrong thing no matter what!1111!!
libertarian leftists? That's an oxymoron.
That's pretty Ironic. Considering the unsexy thing to avoid Fascism here is to boycott the presidential election. The Democrats are sliding into Fascism just as surely as the Republicans. The GOP is just more open about it. The Democrats are right now listening to their donors over their constituency and violently repressing the people's protests over being connected to war crimes. The exact kind of oligarchic rule seen in Fascism. With the Democrats lurching ever further to the right rewarding them again isn't going to change that behavior.
Unfortunately that's not going to work. Biden's biggest donors were pissed he even paused the 2,000 pound bombs. Voting out the republicans isn't going to purge this rot. We've worshipped at the altar of money for too long and now we're going to pay the price. As the old question goes, "What happens when the lords have more power than the king?"
Oh no. That was Kentucky. Notably they don't have the ten commandments in their classrooms for some weird reason. I guess we're going to find out if that SCOTUS ruling still applies.
Yeah. But they knew. This kind of implication is an art form these days.
People wouldn't click on it if it didn't infer the police did the shooting, right?
Not stopping for a traffic stop would be obstructing the police or something. Or, and this is super duper crazy, we could just take their license plate and send them the bill for speeding. It's a civil offense. There's no reason to get a police officer involved at all. If they're driving erratically then it falls under the same heading as running away from any other crime. The erratic driving is already the crime. There's no reason other than, "peasants must obey" to outlaw fleeing. They've already committed a crime and already need to be apprehended. Making them double need to be apprehended doesn't help society in any way.
Rape isn't a human experience. There's no "rape reflex" in our heads. That's jumping to an extreme and illogical.
Bodycams being used for corrupt purposes by a corrupt force is not a micro technicality, it's the entire fucking point.
And nope, they will accuse you of crushing them while you were waiting for the cop to run your plates. An empty container is assumed to have been fully drunk while driving.
They don't get their overtime by doing nothing. Only "earners" get the perks. And the courts and prosecutors are partial to the police because they need them to do their jobs and the police have power over them too. When Phoenix City officials in Arizona decided to not renew the Maricopa County Sheriff's contract because of all the shit Sheriff Arpaio was doing he straight up harrassed them. Then he tried to do it to the Maricopa County board and several prosecutors as well. It's only because it's an elected position that he was taken care of eventually. And that's just the one I saw personally. These cases are all over the place. If you look up Judges sending kids to Juvie for kickbacks you have to specify which scandal you mean.
The system is not on your side.
You don't care so much you responded to someone telling us their experiences with vitriol.
I never said democracy as a whole was destroyed. I said the party is looking for people to rubber stamp it's oligarchs. If you want to be dismissive that's fine but at least keep up.
You're still not getting it. I don't care about you. I'm not going to vote either way because of you. But being an ass doesn't attract voters. That's all I'm trying to tell you.
Go ahead. Don't be surprised if someone shows me actual evidence and I change my position. It's how rational people operate.
Still no evidence of any genocidal plans. Just more mud at the wall.
BEIJING (Reuters) -The United States on Tuesday pressed its call for military communication channels with China and signalled concern over reports that China plans a military training facility in Cuba following Secretary of State Antony Blinken's trip to Beijing over the weekend. Establishing milit...
The Biden administration wants to set up a deconfliction line with China in much the same way they set one up with Russia during the Cold War. They're also signaling that future cooperation may come in the financial sector or by refining sanctions by tapping the Treasury Secretary as one of the next US officials to meet with Chinese leaders. The Commerce Secretary may also be about looking for a ways to offset the US bringing chip production home.
