PragerU and the fucking discovery institute are going to provide all of the materials to red state schools after Trump removes the DoE including slavery was good for slaves instead of teaching about the historic and current racial injustices inherent to the system, the US is Christian ignoring the enlightenment secular principles it was founded under, trans people aren’t people instead of trans rights are human rights, and any social security for the working class is communism instead of the insane wealth imbalance worse than before the great depression or French revolution.

Good, now do Snowden.

I’m surprised Republicans can even remember what a moral high ground looks like let alone pretend to hold it. According to them attempted insurrection, rape, grifting, child sex trafficking, taking away citizens rights on religious grounds, nepotism in high ranking government roles bypassing security screening, soliciting other countries for election interference, abandoning foreign allies, attempting to undermine elections, pardoning murderers, denying election results, etc are all legal and morally okay for people to commit with no restitution for victims or consequences for perpetrators.

Unintended consequences, what are those?

How is a medical doctor not able to understand the necessity of vaccines? Fucking buffoonery.

If they need more taxes to reduce deficits without reducing spending they should look to where wealth is most hoarded and concentrated in society, but it’s the economist.

Special military operation, the aggressor denies it is a war or invasion, but I’m not sure how that affects NATO enrollment.

Yep, if work is asking to participate in charity I just let them know I already have a couple preferred charities I already work with/donate to. If they’re interested in helping give them a link to doctors without borders, ffrf, local homeless or veterans support, etc.

Thanks, that was educational. I had incorrectly assumed they were all synthetics when I heard they were selling in dry states.

I wouldn’t say I’m completely hopeful or doomed, the world is filled with terror and beauty. There are no gods or kings it’s just people. Historic and scientific education can help reduce anxiety about the unknown, change your own beliefs and behaviors to improve the situation locally before joining organizations looking to make broader changes. Learn what your fears are and face them, otherwise it will cloud your judgement and influence your decision making process.

Does Orville count as a non canonical near remake?

They don’t get arrested or charged, they get letters from the DoJ asking them to stop please.

Fascists don’t use language to convey meaning or truth, they use it as a weapon to manipulate. It’s on purpose that they muddy the meaning of words and won’t define terms even in legal bills so their judges can use the worst interpretation of the broad, vague law like the anti lgbtq law in Russia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_anti-LGBT_law

It’s the same way they try to count legal immigrants in the US under asylum as illegal criminals and won’t define words like woke unless required by a court.

A sister that is a traditional conservative and brother that is a centrist liberal, they argue in talking points and both of their solutions are usually unrealistic garbage. It’s a big family though so most just leave the room when they get going.

When I played on PC more EverQuest, counterstrike, TF2, wow, Skyrim

After playing more on console ff14, elder scrolls online, pillars of eternity 1/2, and souls games (ds2, ds3, bloodborne, elden Ring)

I also like to play Indies and smaller games but those are the ones I keep going back to

Liberty requires justice, justice requires truth. You can undermine the justice system like Trump and Putin have by attacking truth directly. Foreign and domestic propaganda fills most people’s heads following the Russian method to overload with frequent bullshit to obfuscate truth. It’s especially harmful to those most prone to influence with bullshit backed by paid actors to attack truth.
