  • Americans ditch premium trims for entry-level cars as affordability takes a hit

  • My representative voted to fund ice, I'd sooner move than deal with the idiocy by me. If things keep going the way they are, I'll likely be federally sponsored to leave if you catch my drift.

  • When I mentioned that, I had context that I failed to communicate, for the first time in a long time it has snowed where I live and it actually stayed on the ground for weeks, the town will clear the road but barely and the sidewalks, without the infrastructure in place, it is much more dangerous to ride a bike, the roads are narrower, there is still plenty of ice around, you are sharing the road with cars whose owners are too selfish to clear them of snow, people will push snow back on the road from their driveway, it's a lot that needs changing and then you take into account that things are so far apart that you can't get to many places by bike, public transportation is slow or sparse.

    The point is the same, it's not possible to just get a bike to replace a car, maybe if you have 2 cars, you can go down to one, but go without is not possible. It's easier to move to a place that allows for it to be honest.

  • You are oversimplifying how these things evolve, it can take decades to get the majority of people on your side to drive change and right now I'm more concerned about not getting deported. Also I'm nearly certain that people never change their minds, it's just that the people that disagree with you die or move away.

  • Can't do that, the infrastructure is not there and it gets really fucking cold in the majority of the country for months at a time.

  • I was also diagnosed with the trifecta as well, it's not unusual and it's usually the ADHD that causes the anxiety that leads to depression, take care of the ADHD and you might get the other two sorted out. Now I don't think I have the same issue you've described but are you currently medicated or in therapy? If not, why not?

  • It is interesting that you ask for sources and logic while relying heavily on a false equivalence. Using the specific geopolitical instability and porous borders of West Africa as a proxy for US immigration policy is a classic strawman. The administrative and security infrastructure of the US is not comparable to a region where groups like Boko Haram operate across vast, ungoverned territories, and suggesting the two situations are "objective" mirrors of one another ignores the vastly different historical and logistical realities at play. If we are going to apply actual logic to the concept of "harm to the country," we have to look at the data regarding who truly threatens American safety. Historically, the most devastating attacks on US soil were carried out by individuals who entered the country legally, such as the 9/11 hijackers. Furthermore, the most pressing threats to domestic stability in recent years have come from within, including the January 6th insurrection and the violence seen in the streets of Minneapolis. Even the most prolific human trafficking and abuse networks, such as the Epstein case, operated entirely within the legal and elite structures of the country rather than through people walking through the bush. This suggests that "knowing who comes and goes" is a superficial fix for a much deeper, often homegrown, security issue. Finally, it is logically inconsistent to discuss a migration crisis without acknowledging the role the US plays in creating the "push factors" that drive it. The instability in the nations these immigrants are fleeing is frequently a direct byproduct of American drug consumption, which fuels the cartels, and decades of US meddling in the governments of the Western Hemisphere. From the 1954 Guatemalan coup to the long history of the School of the Americas, the US has often been the primary architect of the chaos it now attempts to border itself against. If you want to talk about objective problems, you have to start with the fact that these people are at the doorstep of the very nation that destabilized their own.

  • He also advocates for comprehensive immigration reform, probably because it wasn't cool closing the door you and your ancestors used to get in.

    It would also be like, legit the best if the US stopped fucking around with other nations, at the least the ones in latin America where most undocumented immigrants come from.... likely because of the lack of stable governments over the last century has made those places difficult to live in.
