I try to respond to every genuine engagement. I block trolls, contrarians, and provocateurs because life is too short.
They’ll cozy up to the Dems. It’s not rocket science. All the corporations pay both parties to further their interests, due to the most idiotic ruling in history: citizens united, which effectively decided that legally in the US, money = speech.
Casual reminder that Mondelez is one of the very few large chocolate makers in the world that doesn’t disclose what percentage of their chocolate is deforestation-free, and actively lobby against forestry protection laws.
They’re bastards.
The effect it gives is yet another tool for police to hold over the public and enforce selectively. A wonderful tool for political enemies for instance.
Trump didn’t get cut in on the deal, every mafioso knows that’s not how you do business in a crime syndicate.
She’s looking in two directions at once, so I’m leaning lizard people.
So good that credit line is there, or we wouldn’t know what show that was from.
They aren’t harmful to people and they eat pest insects - great garden buddies, if you find one inside it’s lost… Pick it up in a cup and take it outside to the grass somewhere.
We have similar relatives of theirs in Australia, the most common one we simply call the ‘garden spider’ or garden wolf spider.
Nice photo.
Since you have a UK account I’ll share some trivia you may not know. Introduced to Australia, accidentally. First found in Melbourne about 100 years ago - now across the entire country (as of many decades ago). Resiliant little guys.
What most people here seem to be missing is that she was fucking her employees.
That’s the problem.
There is a massive power dynamic imbalance when you’re a world-famous politician in one of the highest profile jobs available and you start making moves on underlinings. It’s highly unethical behaviour and has been exactly the conduct that caused many politicians to be ousted and even impeached in the past.
The US president is such a toddler.
Fuckin embarrassing.
Step 1) anonymous ICE brownshirts massively expand their ranks start shooting all sorts of people all over the country with only one common thread amongst victims: they’re not conservative white men, and ICE is almost never held accountable.
Step 2) mail order voting made illegal.
Step 3) ICE brownshirts stationed at all polling locations.
Step 4) omg Trump wins again! Third term shocks America, as Supreme Court declares “I’ll allow it”.
Reads like a Beaverton article.
It’s physchology I think.
People who feel they need to have regular communal celebration of their every thought and act really struggle to consider losing a few contacts who refuse to move to better alternatives. People who are happy to recieve the same ego strokes through fewer closer peers are ok with the move.
Same with leaving Facebook, Twitter, etc…
Direct market manipulation wasn’t getting him enough profit so now he’s literally selling access to his market-manipulation announcements.
I’d say this is literally criminal evidence in a future court date if this was any country other than the US (or Russia, etc).
Yes, and yet here are commenters whining that the media should step up and solve their fascism problem with accurate reporting.
The media won’t solve it, the courts won’t solve it, voting won’t solve it, “someone else” won’t solve it.
The US citizens acting in coordinated industrial strikes is all that will solve it currently, yet they don’t. Another year or so and even that won’t solve it.
Because they’re legally officers performing arrests in the fascist USA.
For the newspapers of the USA to call them kidnappings would be libel.
Incel meme aside, a lot of the US public really seems to think you can either have a really questionable candidate that agrees with you on some key issue but comes with massive baggage, or a candidate that supports the genocide in Gaza.
As in NY and elsewhere, that this just isn’t true. The establishment Dems don’t want you to know this: you can have both a baggage-free candidate and a candidate that is anti-Israel in the same person.
You don’t have to look far that same Wikipedia article to see an entire large section on the exact criticism I raised, coupled with a large body of evidence behind it?
Check your own ignorance.
Occupy had goals but they had like 50 of them and they were poorly coordinated in protests, slogans, and to the media - which is why they had very limited success enacting meaningful change.
I feel for your experience, but Occupy Wall Street famously had no clear set of demands - that was why no significant policy changes came from it. It was a valid protest, but with no stated legislative goals that could be enacted by politicians.
It’s wild to me as a non-American that you still have places named after these people and statues in their honor.
There are no statues of Nazi generals in Germany, nor places that celebrate leading members of the Reich.
