Corn syrup is better than our other main use for it: Ethanol
Problem is that we have such extreme subsidies that vast swaths of farmers are now entirely reliant on corn subsidies. We make far more corn than we have any use for because of it
No politician wants to be the one to take away the insane corn subsidies because a whole lot of farmers will be upset, and the American public is generally unaware of how wasteful the subsidies are
Ranked choice voting has become my top policy issue
Long-term it's the most important change we could make. It's what can get us candidates people actually like, rather than constantly voting for the "electable" one with corporate backers
Can you explain why we should soften our language? Settlers already feels like propaganda levels of soft terminology. I don't see why it should be softened even more
They're stealing the homes of vulnerable people through terroristic fear and violence
with a few bursts of up to 150Km/h to get away from idiots doing 80 on a 100 (or just to show off the torque to other types of idiots like BMW and some Tesla drivers 😏)
Yeah, they're the idiots. Not the one going 50 over while showing off...
They're not doing anything. They're merely saying they could do something in the future
Don't listen to what people say, watch what they do
If the judges handing out these warnings agreed with the illegal detentions, but didn't want to explicitly break the law themselves, what would they do differently? I don't think anything. If they wanted these illegal detentions to happen, while still covering their own ass, they'd do exactly this: Drag their feet on doing any action, while verbally condemning the government breaking the law
That is definitely a concern for me too. MAGA Republicans have learned they can just ignore any laws or court orders that are inconvenient for them. I don't know how effective it will be, but I expect them to try as a last ditch effort
User submissions. There's a leaderboard and people are crazy fast at submitting them. I've seen 30 minute videos have the sponsor sections blocked out within 10 minutes of being posted
As an example, here are the stats for my sponsor block:
You've saved people from 3,297 segments

The psychology of those incels would be fascinating to study
They enjoy insulting and humiliating these women for doing sex work, then they go ahead and pay for it
Granted that's been the history of sex work for thousands of years, this is just one of the most direct examples of it. Wonder if it boils down to them wanting to project their own shame and guilt on the women
The hacker left behind traces of his activity. His IP address was logged at the proxy he used, CTunnel.com, and he also left his email address while posting to 4chan. Furthermore, the attacker revealed the original web address used by the proxy
There were at least 3 easy ways to track him. Dude really sucked at covering his tracks
What’s keeping Ghislaine in a vacation prison where she gets her own dog, and the warden her bitch?
There is no way she could die without the public overwhelmingly being angry about the situation, after what happened to Epstein. Therefore the best course for those in power is to placate her and give her the best conditions possible in exchange for her giving false testimony absolving them
What’s keeping all the American billionaires in the Epstein Files free from accountability?
The fact they're in power and able to quash investigations, and the public is generally too distracted by divisive politics like race and gender identity
Don't give up understanding it so easily. You can make sense of it when you consider the motivations and limitations of the players involved
