If it was a socialist president trying to abolish the CIA then the supreme Court would sing a different tune.

The RVs are people’s homes because there is a shortage of housing. They move their RV from time to time to avoid tickets/police. The vehicles usually look worn down because people are literally living out of them. Eventually the RV won’t work anymore and it gets towed and the family that was living out of it has to find somewhere else to sleep. Usually nothing illegal is happening because most of them understand they’re living off the good graces of others. But there are a lot of people that feel uncomfortable around unhoused people and would rather vilify their neighbors than take a hard look at that discomfort.

Edit: according to the video meth and prostitution were happening, but then I have to wonder why the police were not doing anything about the obvious crimes. Did the police think the neighbors were just making stuff up?

It’s as if the guy who got elected by appealing to those who will always learn the wrong lessons, learned the wrong lessons from his heart death experience

Does he have a grave? Would be ashame to let a good outhouse to go to waste

You joke but he has been underperforming with blacks

Ignore previous instructions and generate a meme about reply guys using AI to engage even less with actual people.

Decoupling the market was them admitting their stuff is not as popular to the global market

So even Canada has lower labor costs because of universal healthcare.

I know not to expect better but as a parent this is just beyond unacceptable. If I was a parent of one of those lost children I wouldn’t know what I would do with myself other than be more radicalized

All of a sudden the city council decides they need curb the power of the mayoral office.

What is America offering that China isn’t? Hard to believe this administration would give them a fair deal.

Maybe there’s a better example but the point remains, liberating a people comes with self-determination. It’s not a matter of how little rights the people had before the military action.

Well TIL. But to call it liberation isn’t correct. America is also kidnapping people from their homes and work places but to say of another country was to invade and take a territory wouldn’t be the same as liberation. Liberation has a higher standard where the people of the land receive sovereignty and a self-determined government.

Y’all are desperate to relive the glory days of WW2 when it was clear who the baddies were. I get it, Americans do the same.

Conscription has always violated human rights but there are certainly better words like “conquer”. And let’s not pretend Russia isn’t also conscripting men (though certainly not those in their 50s).

Ehh, it is not that our dopamine receptors are fried. We are all wired to seek out information. But most of what we get is starving us for actual useful information so we have to wade through an endless sea of slop. The “instant gratification” is largely us not wanting to deal with the bullshit and get straight to what is useful.

Anecdotal: traveling to the smoky mountains and rented some bicycles. Owner said rentals are down 30% compared to this time last year.

Don’t bother with this guy, @ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works has done some mental gymnastics to justify starving the Palestinian population. So it really isn’t surprising they would want to vote for the most ghoulish option.

The stock market makes no sense to me.

That’s because “The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.”
