Cool, so all we need to do is keep lead exposure to a minimum and in a generation fascism won’t exist, right? If you’re agreeing with the statement “lead exposure explains Boomer and Gen X MAGA conservatives” then something along those lines must be what you’re trying to say.
And you said I’m oversimplifying things, sheesh.
Do you mean the politicians or the voters? The answers are oil and red scare tactics, respectively.
While it can be comforting to find something external to blame, assholes have always existed. You don’t have to look farther than human nature to explain their behavior. In fact, doing so can in some ways prevent us from fully understanding the problem. We can’t combat it effectively if we don’t understand it.
That might be useful information if the left could muster the courage to do something more than talk shit about them on Twitter
I’m not really sure how locality plays into that. If this all happened in DC then there is no state government to handle the situation. Perhaps the state governments of the state that either the congress member or the person threatening them is from could prosecute them but I’m honestly not sure.
I mean, Trump controls all the departments that would be involved in that process so it’s not really a matter of worthiness at all. Criminals don’t investigate themselves with any kind of impartiality. But, if you were to somehow convince the DOJ to follow through and convict these people against Trump’s wishes he would just pardon them. That’s the reality of the situation. The ideal outcome isn’t anywhere near this picture.
Trump would just pardon them anyway
So go shoot somebody on the “other side”. Tying yourself up in the woods makes no sense.
I get what you’re saying but it’s not actually that kind of all or nothing situation. I’ve never met a person that would only do FB or nothing at all. Everyone is browsing FB on their phone anyway so skip the middleman and start a group message thread. Easy solution that takes almost no effort or adjustment. Nothing will ever improve if people like you and I refuse to change our habits even slightly.
Hey that’s not fair, she’s definitely banging Trump. That’s more than nothing.
Sadly I have to stay on it for friends and music reasons
No you don’t
Medicare for all is the best option anywhere near the table. It’s not perfect but you’re also minimizing the impact it would have on people. Being able to seek medical care without the risk of financial ruin is a fucking massive step forward, even if there are other steps needed.
Unless you’re 48 and all these people have early heart attacks I don’t think that is very likely
Give the man a slurpee and a high five, not a DUI. What the fuck
According to him he can declassify documents just by thinking about it. No wrist flicking required. Of course, that only applies to documents stored in the bathroom on his golf course.
They’re edited files that heavily favor Republicans. No doubt about it
Being afraid of interacting with them is what they want. Don’t let them win before anything even happens. To use your example, if Trump did shoot Mamdani on 5th Avenue then it is our responsibility as citizens to respond appropriately. If we can’t decide that something like that is a red line then we might as well stop talking about resistance in any form. Don’t go down that path.
Like the absolutely easiest, most accurate way to tell if someone is trans is to just ask the person in question.
So, are you one of them Trans gingers or what?
Like that?
