  • That's what the law says. But they can just say different and we're in conflict. Even if the courts decide against Trump, there no way to actually enforce that judgement.

  • If they choose to follow Trump, there isn't, no. They have to convince people to refuse Trump's orders if they're illegal or when he has no authority. Re-committing to the system of government and the rules of the distribution of power is necessary. Its hearts and minds right now. Follow Trump or follow the Constitution and its founding doctrines. You can't serve both because Trump and the GOP have abandoned the constitution already. They can't coexist.

  • And the dem majority will accomplish nothing because their donors don't want them to resist fascism enough to be effective.

    Edit: Here is your democrats, beholden to Israel, trying to shutter reigning in Trump's new war with Iran. This is the democratic behavior that is so fucking reviled. Dems get bribed and they sell America down the damn river.

  • America's one and only 250th will forever be celebrated under Donald Trump's direction....

  • It's disappointing worldbuilding that there is no advanced mental/medical health services everpresent already that people just use whenever. Why isn't trauma recovery a medical procedure? Why isn't there a holodeck for use as a therapeutic tool? The hologram 'experiencing a childhood' is literally a version of that already. 1k years in the future and people need theatre to teach them to manage their mental health...

    But such things would require the showrunners to give a shit about the science fiction part of startrek and not abuse the IP for a modern day teen character drama set in a generic tech fiction setting. The technology and the world in this show is not treated as a meaningful character itself, the science and technology is written for the convenience of the plot and does not form a cohesive or consistent world. This lack of object storytelling is a modern writing issue that makes the stories lack grounding in shared reality. Each episode of this show might as well just be a dream one of the characters had.

  • Because everything bad is the West's fault, just like everything bad is men's fault.

  • This should be fun to follow as it gets strangled into the ground.

  • Do they though?

  • All this controversy is showing is if the surveillance device is obvious, people get upset. If its hidden, people seem to be okay with it.

    Like, your tvs have cameras inside your home watching you and sending that to a corporation but some dude with glasses out in public is the line? Like, it makes zero sense to me. People embraced all these video, audio, location and other surveillance data gathering devices throughout their lives but the glasses are too far? None of this shit should be acceptable but if its hidden and it's a government or corporation recording you, everyone is aokay with it.

  • Throw them on the bonfire of American democracy with all the rest.

  • Because America elected unreasonable leaders.

  • Until the rich have their wealth repatriated by the working class, people will continue to not have kids.

  • All it takes is the guardsmen or the chain of command doing what Trump says. Laws don't matter right now. What people choose to do does.

  • So who intervenes when he physically tries to control the election processes in states? Who certifies the election results, JD Vance?

    He can just claim any state election is fraudulent because they didn't do what he said, reject the results in any state the gop didn't win enough and argue the GOP reps can stay in power until an election happens the way he wants, all while claiming the gop definitely won a majority, with no proof. He will not admit to the loss of control of congress and will not leave the white house peacefully if he's impeached.

    Americans had better get ready for a violent transfer of power. MAGA will believe dems stole the election this time and they won't sit by and let government function, Trump will still be president while all this happens and use that authority to incite insurrection against the constitution.

  • So...fascists cracking down on anti-fascism groups?

  • Rightly so, they are a threat to democracy. They shouldn't be trusted in any position of authority or public service or we risk them using those positions to betray the Republic whenever Trump asked them to.

  • Have you dealt with a company before?

  • Did any of them refuse?
