Almost sounds like its designed to cause a crime spree by and within the Republican base, who will be hit harder than anyone else, and perhaps that can be spun into a Reichstag Fire moment by the administration.

Yeah, credit where its due. People don’t generally think of Texas or West Virginia as having their shit together, but here we are.
Did he ever have credibility to begin with? Gun control is a non-starter, and that’s his claim to fame.
My guess is the month is most relevant to an agrarian society. It tells you where you are in the growing cycle that the entire culture revolves around. The day and year offer little practical utility to a 19th century farmer.
Why was the aristocrat university getting welfare checks in the first place?
When billionaires use those agglomerations of capital to manipulate markets and engage in other types of anti-competitive practices, it turns a free market into a captured market.
Anti-monopoly regulation & enforcement is required to maintain a market’s freedom.
Its the students themselves who are criminally conservative, in addition to the schools administrative hierarchy promoting far-right neo-feudalism and calling it capitalism.
Rape, assault, and battery are the accepted norm among the Harvard student body.
For example:
lol, as if Harvard were liberal
they’re infamously, thuggishly conservative
I take your money.
I make a show of returning a fraction of what I took.
Look how generous I am!
it rose from its grave
“We, as the DNC, need to be seen as a body that can be trusted, that’s not putting its thumb on the scales,” a DNC member told Politico. “We have to be so strategic and careful with our resources right now. … So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?”
Which side of the debate is this person trying to support?
If the DNC wants to be seen as trustworthy and not putting its thumb on the scales against its constituents economic interests, then it makes sense to try to repair the broken parts of the party that are largely seen as untrustworthy and favoring the donor class over the people who vote for Democrats.
So why are the corporate Dems shooting their own party in the foot by resisting changes to the failed status-quo?
Running a scream test for a scrappy small business on a shoestring budget is sensible.
USA should have better options.
USA was made by oligarchs, for oligarchs. That’s the entire purpose of a Republic.
I’m curious about the orbital parameters of the companion galaxies. Maybe we’re just looking at them during a period of conjunction? Like if you look at our Solar System, sometimes all of the planets are on the same side of the sun.
Just like Lemmy more.
Reddit gave me a temp ban, but I declined their generous offer to return after a week.
I had reported a post by some far-right religious fundamentalist for promoting political violence. Reddit told me that reporting ToS-breaking content is a bannable offense, perhaps because the far-right owners of reddit feel like kindred spirits to the uber-conservative terrorist sympathizer that got reported.
IP law itself is a band-aid over capitalism’s disincentivizing of humanity’s innate tendency toward ingenuity, innovation, and iteration
public domain is the default - its IP law and the artificial scarcity it creates which is useful to the capitalists
Supporting their constituents in the class war is presented as an afterthought, as usual from the corporate Democrats, and this congresscritters proposal is just the standard right-wing, milquetoast, failed Democratic policy that got us into this mess.
There are over 100 million people without a home in USA, and this guy thinks housing 10% of them will be sufficient. He won’t even say a number when it comes to minimum wage. Three fifths of the proposal is just masturbatory lust for power.
The short answer is “no”.
The long answer is “noooooooooooooo.”
Taxes at the Federal level don’t pay for goods or services. Creating new money is how the Feds pay for stuff.
Federal taxes just delete money from target populations.
The Axis Unseen is about hunting (while being hunted by) cryptids from a large variety of mythologies.
Well, that and the companies doing it are also a litigious scourge on traditional farmers, and are responsible for causing cancer in conventional farm workers, and are suspected to be the ones responsible for the increase in food allergies.
A hammer is just a tool. They can be used to do a lot of good, potentially. But, if in practice the only thing that hammers ever really got used for is assaulting people, then it might be reasonable for people to give hammers & their manufacturers a bit of side eye.
