  • Trump Designates Fentanyl as a Weapon of Mass Destruction

    Jump

  • Yes, I agree in principle. However, the economics (well, monied interests) of it right now are not favorable. Too many people with money to make in US-Canadian trade would pull support for the politicians that push for it. That may change over time.

    I think the idea was floated in the media by Mr Asshat because someone wanting the oil was interested in capturing it, but the push back from other donors was clear, and we dont hear them talking about it anymore other than to defend their "right" to float such ideas.

  • Zohran Mamdani holds all-day listening session to hear directly from New Yorkers

  • This is a good sign he wasnt just talking the talk. Hopefully he gets some great stuff done fast. It'll be important to gain momentum quickly so other dem soc can ride his coat tails.

  • Trump sues BBC for $5 billion

    Jump

  • Probably also wants to take down a publicly funded media outlet because he can't get them to lie for him. NPR and PBS have had their funding obliterated, and BBC is popular in America even though its based in the UK.

  • Fox News Panel Unanimously Condemns Trump’s Reaction to Rob Reiner’s Killing: ‘Beneath the Office’

    Jump

  • Its not that its a horrible thing to say, its that even the his base are like "um, wut? Does having TDS mean that someone is going to kill you? Is he suggesting I kill my parents if they dont like him?" Its literally demented. He's coming across like he's yelling at the clouds.

  • Trump Blames Rob Reiner for His Own Murder | This morning’s Truth Social post was nauseating even by the president’s standards.

  • This is why the right never strays from identity politics. They need the working class divided into smaller pieces or else they'd be cooked.

  • There's no way that happens. The oligarchs would lose money in the conflict. They gain money in a Venezuela conflict presumably. They have a lot of oil, like almost Saudi levels of oil, and there isnt enough trade with Venezuela for a war to upset the pocket books of the wealthy.

  • the American Dream

  • This is not the most prosperous time in history. I'd say the 90s had better income equality, which alleviates most of these issues to a degree. The low cost of Chinese goods was a boon, but that later decimated domestic manufacturing and led to the false prosperity of the stock market serving as a final reminder of the prosperity we once all shared in America. Its the reasonable wages of those jobs we're missing now. Housing was less scarce too.

    Pre ww2 America was similar to now from what I've read. I've disqualified the 70s and 80s due to inflation. The 50s are pre civil rights act. Perhaps the 60s are in the running? If you dont count the Vietnam war as detrimental to prosperity.

  • Rep. Ilhan Omar says Stephen Miller’s rhetoric echoes language used by Nazis

  • There's still hope. I'm reminded of Puscifer's song The Remedy.

  • ‘What is this, the Soviet Union?’: Senators rip Trump’s call to limit doll purchases

  • Me too, man. Stay vigilant.

    Im watching to news, ready to do what makes sense. If ICE comes to town, I'm there baby.

    Jump

  • Unlikely voters, as opposed to likely voters which are the pollsters darlings, are low information, "just trying to pay the rent" kind of people. Why a low information voter with no reason to believe their life would change with either result would by default be a Trump voter speaks to your personal prejudices.

  • The majority didn't vote because there are flaws in the voting systems we have. They are disenfranchised, not at fault. I dont blame a poor person for being poor, but I mean, if you want to blame people for being subjugated, thats your prerogative.

  • Um, Will Smith eating spaghetti would like to have a word.

    Chatgpt also gives inane output occasionally. All this means is if they used AI, it wasn't proofread before posting it. There's a few LLMs that could be used for writing articles, and all of them are flawed.

  • The vast majority of Americans didn't vote for this. Two thirds of us didnt vote for this. If you think this is the voters' fault, you dont understand the world very well, my friend.

  • If I cant find my phone, I say "ok Google, where's my phone." It replies "I cant do that," and then I can hear where it is.

    I also change outlets and light switches hot so I can confirm no shorts are made that will trip the breaker when Im done.

  • If it were me, and I were having a bad day like I do sometimes, I might do that, asking them to shot me.

  • Many places you can buy recreational cannabis now. No hangover. Thats what's going on. Jack Daniel's still costs what you'd expect, given inflation.
