Owning a gun was scandalous pre 1880? The previous 80 years had been nonstop violence as people moved to carve out the western half of the country. Also as a means of providing food etc. I'm pretty sure the guns were extremely common.
Unless you lived in that era it's really hard to imagine how the reds lived in the imagination of every American. if you're old enough to remember the war culture during the start of Iraq/Afghanistan. it was like that on steroids. 50 years of Cold War means a couple generations were completely consumed by it. The cold war nostalgia tour didn't end until the "terrorists are every where" tour began.
Ya it's an effect of the passage of time, that's why we label the 3 waves of feminism in America. the movement got broader and more inclusive as the years went on. Which upset some of the older feminists like JK Rowling who refused the memo of equality for all.
We’ve fought having a national ID for decades, with consideration to an administration similar to the current one taking over. We didn’t want the nazis running around demanding papers 10 years ago. It was trumps voting base that was most opposed to it 😭😅
Our elections take place inside the state where we reside. We have state ID with a picture and the voting rolls match our address. It’s a pretty simple process that has worked for the last 40 years or so. I’ve always had to provide proof ID and residence to vote
To your first point indeed! Google spent a lot of money placing themselves in education. But it’s just like the housing crisis. The core problem was your local school board (parents usually) letting them in the door. It was the parents that resorted to iPads because parenting a 3-6 year old is hard.
I’m not downplaying it at all, I just disagree with the points that parents don’t understand, and there’s nothing they can do. I think that is part of the problem. I think people should have time to raise their kids and prepare them for the world. Part of the problem is systemic, part of the problem is access. You certainly can create an environment with less access, but that might hurt corporate profits in the future. Who’s forcing this kids to exist on their devices all the time? Who’s giving them access to cyber bullying? Also like how do you stop bullying in an era where the public elects bully’s to run the world; and the corporations make money promoting your kids being bullied.
We should have broken up Facebook after the 2016 election. Literally nationalized it. We have a lot of monopolies that need to be broken up and regulated.
Idk sounds like internet bullying to me. It’s not new. It’s not evolved. It requires the same basic knowledge and precautions.. it involves vigilant parents and an involved school system. We didn’t solve bullying we embraced it. It’s not different, it’s all encompassing now.
I’d argue it’s far more localized dynamic and nuanced than that. Neoliberalism is a cop out for a dude that can’t point to policy and people. Remember everything we don’t like in America is woke; not neoliberal anymore. If you’re gonna just randomly straw man societies problems, please the preferred terminology is the woke did this!
Nope. Being told “it’s her turn” was it for me. You had a pro Wall Street, pro War candidate versus Bernie. I think a lot of young people either didn’t vote or switched sides that year.
Telling your future voting pool to shut up and take more austerity and less opportunity so Wall Street can get rich ain’t it DNC
