Trade the first fascism for “indoctrination”.

Any inmate leaving the facility could describe all of that without glasses.

Then you’d get Musk and the rest running, too.

Source for the writers?

“Originally” was near a century ago. What has that got to do with today?

What a disgusting blowhard bullshitter.

It’s a genetic failing of our species. We constantly have people trying to be in control and then control the wealth and resources. There’s a lot of people that worship or need to follow those in power. Our brains are wired this way, whether it be hoarding toilet paper for a crisis or hoarding wealth and power to control the crisis, or lauding the hoaders.

If we cannot suppress or regulate these extremes sufficiently we won’t survive the impending climatological and resource collapse. Everyone will hoard to be the last one standing on the burning dumpster.

It’s a joke, friend.

Downvotes are alao: disagreement, ideological, political, or just “I don’t like that you called me out.”

That’s a good set of films.

Maybe it’s just me, but I also find it weird to see adults with t-shirts or stickers on their cars of what are essentially kid’s shows and comics.

And many of them vote for him anyway.

Did you make it to the end where I said he was a shitty prez? Or did you just need to re-state the obvious?

Yes. We know about trump. But what about the article?

You jest, but this is exactly what trump would do.

Not only was he right, but Bin Laden won, even if it killed him. The attack on 9/11 pulled out all the stops on ignorance, xenophobia, evangelicals in politics, the surveillance State, right-wing nationalism, and so much more. We wasted trillions of dollars on wars.

The attack was a slow burn that took 20 years to collapse an “empire.”

Worst: Driving through a large Midwest city in the US on the freeway. Started raining. NBD. Then it got a lot harder. The wind really picked up fast. I’ve been around gust fronts and the like for thunderstorms before, this was unlike anything I’ve been through before. It got wild, fast. Tree parts and other debris started blowing past, it looked like what you’d think a tornado would, but it was far too widespread. Then the crazy thing…along with the wind, rain, and debris, the visibility dropped to near zero with a fog or mist in the span of a minute. We had to pull over and stop with everyone else, nobody could see for a few minutes. I have never seen that happen before, the rapid and violent change to weather and visibility over such a large area.

Coolest: Driving over the western High Desert in the US. Got caught up in a snowstorm with lots of wind. Found a safe place to spend the night after some white-knuckle driving for an hour or two. Plenty of vehicles pushed by wind or slid off the road, we were some of the only stupid ones left driving. No place to park safely, not enough gas for the rest of the night to keep warm. Don’t want to be the dead ones found with CO poisoning by the highway patrol the next day. Anyway, woke up the next day and it was crystal clear, literally. The air was full of fine ice crystals blowing in the wind. The bright sun had a huge halo and cross like a “+” along with some other tangential arcs that felt both close and far away to us at ground level. I’m sure folks in colder climes see these, but it was a new one to me. Pretty wild to see.

Their eyes are almost all exactly the same. That makes it weird.

Need to add a Sandy Hook character, among others.

That’s why they need to work two jobs at closer to 60 or more hours per week, no weekends off, in order to have anything at all.
