Leave it broken! It gives you off road cred!

They are fascinating little critters. I got over my fear of spiders, but even as a kid, I was never afraid of these little guys. Like 8 legged kitties…

You know, I can actually see stubborn people clinging on to climate change denial. The rise in average temperature is very small and you can’t really feel it, and it still fluctuates between hot and cold. Flat Earth, on the other hand, is an absurd belief. There is so much evidence against it. One of the guys I overheard said he knew an airline pilot who “knew” the Earth was flat. That HAD to be bullshit. I figure, even if said pilot didn’t personally fly the routes, he would know you fly West from the US to go to Australia. You fly West to go from Australia to Europe. You fly West to go from Europe to the US… Hmmmm…

I was out having coffee yesterday and overheard two actual people agreeing that the Earth is flat. I thought that was all bullshit! Flat Earthers? No fucking way is anybody that dumb, thought I… I stand corrected, I guess.

Quite the achievement! The prize for such a feat should be death!🙂

Well, pride is one of the 7 deadly sins, so I guess everyone should tone that shit down. I’m not religious, but I see where that is coming from and I agree.

Is this suggesting that he knocked someone up or that he’s going to die within that time period?

National pride is idiotic. Where you were born is just what happened. You had no say in or control over the matter. You are proud of something that happened that you had absolutely no hand in. Idiotic.

The standard of living is falling. That is what these people are seeing and they are rightly concerned. You would just let it happen? How passive of you. If we all do that, we will lose what we had all that much faster. THEN we can complain, right?

It WAS better than it is. That is our perspective. We see things deteriorating. We have every right to bitch about it for all the good it will do. The USA isn’t the worst country in the world, but it is constantly dropping down the list.

Organizing like that is a good idea for sure, but it will come down to revolution (probably violent) to eradicate the problem. Humans are just animals though, and whatever we build to replace what we destroy may likely be just as bad.

That was a city mayoral election. I guess NYC is indeed a democracy. The United States of America is not.

That’s just surviving. OP asked how do you stop the oppression. That could be done over time via the electoral process if it was left intact, but it has been damaged already and very likely will be ignored if and when it goes against the will of the oppressors. Then what?

That is totally dependent on if they rig the upcoming midterms or not. If there is a legitimate election and the Republicans indeed loose big, then a long process of rebuilding can begin. They will have to immediately remove Trump from office IMO. …Having said that, there is no way that these fascist swine are going down that easy. They will either fix the elections, cancel them, or claim fraud and execute a total coup. This time, they will use the military.

So… like a very slow missile then?

They do? What do you mean?

If that is AI, I’m impressed. It’s spot on.

The Fed isn’t a government agency, so I don’t think Trump can run it through the government appointed chairman. He isn’t in charge of the fed.

They forgot Poit, Wango and Fwee Bee Dee Bee Dap.

Yessss. Make us the enemy of the whole world! Brilliant!
