  • Reddit is now allowing advocacy of Child Marrige because they don't want to be seen as islamophobes

    Jump

  • Let's not pretend that this problem is somehow isolated to Islam.

    Child marriage is legal in the US with a majority of states allowing it in some form and four states literally having no minimum age of marriage.

    This is a religious people problem. The more of them you have the more of this problem you have. Religious people have all kinds of excuses for pedophilia and other things that rob people of consent and agency.

  • I'm not talking about the openly bigoted chuds out there I'm talking about the regular rank and file Americans who decided there was no room to question the the horrors we expanded from the shadows and filled every corner of our media with.

    Formerly kindly everyday american morons didn't just watch it, they cheered. They scolded they youth for thinking we were entitled to the bill of rights. It was fucking bizarre who swallowed the bait.

  • 'A black hole': New graduates discover a dismal job market

  • If the population starts demanding more they will make it harder for you to make demands.

    You might see things like social media sites that were open and free being purchased by billionaires and transformed into unrecognizable sewers.

    You might see things like protests violently suppressed by massive police presences that fire on crowds that are both unarmed and non-violent.

    You might see things like insane brazenly partisan gerrymandering and voter purges.

    You might see things like people being arrested and disappeared for the reviews that run contrary to the regime.

    If you see any of these things, you might be in trouble because it doesn't matter how many of you demand UBI or food or shelter, bullets are cheaper and they've already shown that they're willing to use them.

  • After the 2000 election it was obvious that Republicans played by different rules than Democrats.

    After 911 this country lost its fucking mind. Like millions and millions and millions of people just became fucking psychopaths. All of a sudden everybody was willing to split hairs on torture, child murder, forced starvation, warrantless wiretapping, indefinite detention, extraordinary rendition, double tap drone strikes The list goes on.

    We became completely fucking insane. It was obvious at that point this is where we were headed. That was when I realized I needed to register as a Republican. Democrats don't care about my primary votes if they even hold one but in my youthfully naive hope I entertained the idea that you could democratically affect anything.

    Aside from the extra good feels of getting to vote against Donald Trump multiple times, The only real benefit is that I get visits from local Republican party officials and they think I'm one of them.

    I always put on my home accent and complain about liberals but I don't think they understand that they are just liberals of the God bothering type to me and I seek to dismantle them from root to stem. ... ... But please tell me about this canvassing operation you have in my town... What kind of cars are they driving? Just curious

  • Elon Musk is turning US liberals off not just Tesla but electric vehicles in general

    Jump

  • Once again, this time everybody join in, "electric cars aren't here to save the planet they're here to save the car industry."

    Electric vehicles don't really solve any of the problems that cars have. They just shift the resource and environmental problems into a different arena.

    It seems to me that the most effective way of dealing with personal vehicles is to use renewable power to produce gasoline (Blue crude).

    That way your gasoline is carbon neutral or even carbon negative until you burn it, can actually be kept sterile and separate and only mixed on demand so it doesn't go bad, and never has any sulfur in it because it's made from scratch.

    It also means that all of the vehicles that currently exist can still be used which would dramatically reduce the amount of energy necessary to keep a functional fleet of vehicles and doesn't need everything to be replaced including the infrastructure.

    Peaker plants could be built to soak up all of the extra renewable power when production is so much higher than demand so there's no need to worry about where you get the power to do this.

    There are solutions out here but they require a kind of rearrangement of how we do business at almost every level.

  • Nancy Pelosi Comes Out In Support of Stock Trading Ban After Trump Says He Doesn’t Really Know About It

    Jump

  • It's cynical, dishonest, manipulative, and completely unproductive.

    Based on that alone I completely believe that Nancy Pelosi did the math and realized that Democrats could argue for this out loud maybe even vote for it but there's no chance that it'll ever happen so it's a great chance for her to actually do politics with the voters which I thought she had considered beneath her.

  • The officer should have asked. That's when you could tell him you don't consent to a search. It's a bad idea to do this for a lot of reasons but that's not one of them.

    If someone is searching through your pockets without your approval and against your wishes, they better hope they are right to do so and are taking all of the necessary precautions.

    You're not under any obligation to make the private contents of your pockets safe for other people to rifle through.

  • Why didn't the Democrats release the Epstein client list?

  • Unfortunately the people making that call are largely people that are on that list or closely connected to people that are.

  • US warns ICC member states to drop proceedings against Israel

    Jump

  • I think this is, in large part, one of the reasons many of these authoritarian types get out of control.

    On some level they know whether or not they consider their actions to be illegal that other people will. At some point they anticipate blowback and a lot of their flailing overreach stems directly from trying to get out ahead of any consequences that may come their way.
