Cairo, IL (Population 1,505)
I wish
I worked gate security at a baseball stadium. Right next to where I stood there were two huge signs reading “No Smoking” and “No Re-entry”. Guess what questions I got asked all day.
The only ethical consumption under capitalism is eating a billionaire.
I touched on one of my pet theories as well; the Constitution was written assuming dueling would be a safety valve. Holding office was originally limited to land-holding men, so the high class. They were mostly the only ones that did dueling back then. It was technically illegal, but it was a law for the common folks. At the time dueling was often done with pistols, which was paradoxically safer than swords. A duel with a sword always ended with blood. A pistol duel could end with both parties missing (often intentionally) and be considered a finished matter. Both parties would agree to a compromise that preserved the honor of each.
It sounds insane, but I suggest bringing back dueling. Just for federal elected officials though. Just the threat of a duel would make the assholes who take office just to enrich themselves run for the hills. They would never actually put their own ass on the line. You would actually have to believe in something enough to die for it to take office.
No system of rules or laws can fully account for people acting in bad faith.
I think the founding fathers counted on social shame to limit bad faith actors in government. A dishonorable person used to become a social pariah and might even get killed in a duel back in the 18th century. People wouldn’t associate with them, sign a contract with them, or lend them money. But now?
We got the lion ass.
University of Chicago I think.
When I was in college the biology department got donated half of a lion for dissection by veterinary students. We got the back half. I feel like that said something significant about the quality of my education.
Being in a functional union was nice while it lasted.
All great stuff but herpes was notably not mentioned. I really wish we would see some progress in prevention and treatment on that front.
There is no material difference between Israel striking Iran with the backing of the US and the US doing it directly.
It is a huge material difference to the American soldiers who would be sent to fight and their families.
Don’t make me laugh.
Perhaps you need to examine yourself for weaknesses to propaganda, because it is 100% true Harris wants peace between Palestine and Israel.
Harris says she won’t give up pushing for end to Israel-Gaza war
Harris says two-state solution, end of Israel-Hamas war is crucial
Kamala Harris vows to end war in Gaza during final Michigan rally
I don’t think that the US should be allowed to hold any more nuclear weapons, the US government is the crazy, out-of-control political power that should not have nukes.
And everyone should have a unicorn and an endless chocolate fountain. No nation should have nukes, but that’s the reality. As long as they exist, mutually assured destruction is the only realistic policy to prevent their use.
The idea that supporting and helping Genocide does not count as fascist is also baffling to me
Fascism is a specific political philosophy.
Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/ FASH-iz-əm) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement,[1][2][3] characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.
Especially because a see a clear difference in effort between us, I have to provide sources for everything, you can just make up stuff on the spot, no citations, no quotes, no nothing
I’ve done this long enough to know citation is a waste of time in this conversation because either A) you won’t look at it or B) you’ll make up some excuse it’s not valid.
But I guess that’s very common for blue MAGAs.
Imagine saying something so absurd and then calling the other person unserious…
Someone was joking that it would ruin all the 47 Trump merch they had been made. Would be funny
Those people didn’t vote because people like you convinced them there was no difference and therefore no point in voting.
Or the Republicans push through “election security” laws that gerrymander the whole country to the point that Democrats can never gain a majority in either house ever again.
If they are banned, then they won’t be in common use, so it would be constitutional.
If you think my logic is flawed then you understand exactly why the supreme Court’s ruling is flawed.
That fuck lives in my state!?! So many of the suburbs have underground Klan and neoNazi activities. It’s disgusting.
