As an American that fully opposes 100% of what Trump is doing, PLEASE start preparing now. He’s going to keep ratchet long the tension up until things start to escalate. It’s his SOP.

But please also be advised that you have many, many allies state-side that will absolutely wreck the internal workings of the US if shit like this goes down. I’m fairly confident that there will be a full blown civil war here if anything ever pops off between the US and Canada.

Ah, that reads exactly like, “Democrats need for abortion (i.e. killing babies) was more important than winning.”

My bad! 😆

So do you agree with Trump’s statement that Zelenski started this war, or are you able to correctly identify that that is 100% Kremlin-pushed disinformation?

You mean the “rights of women”? I’m sure you’ve heard all of the arguments already, but here we go:

• 99% of pregnanies are performed before 20 weeks. Typically right around the time it’s been discovered.
• Anything beyond that is almost always due to the loss of the child or discovery of a fetal abnormality.
• Restricting abortion limits personal freedom, disproportionately affects low-income women, and can force individuals into unsafe medical situations or unwanted pregnancies that impact their lives, careers, and families.

There is no good reason to restrict abortions. The world is not a better place when unwanted children are brought into it, especially when the people that are pushing to ban it don’t want to offer any sort of governmental assistance to deal with said child. It almost feels like the intent isn’t to help the baby, that it’s more of a punishment for the woman for being “immoral”.

The reason why the “elite” want to ban it is because it easily destroys your potential to get ahead. They don’t want an educated populace, they want a multitude of dumb, cheap labor, and restricting abortion is an extremely easy way to get that. Also by getting conservatives to hyperfixate on this issue (and things like LGBTQ rights), it draws attention away from wealth inequality, labor right, and other systemic issues.

They are worming their way through the various departments looking for something…dirt on their opponents?

Savage. Love that that’s the best you could come up with.

It’s like they want us to be sick.

Says the guys who complained they couldn’t breath because of a mask. That it impeded the amount of oxygen they were getting and opted to not wear them. That it was the government trying to “force” people to comply. That it didn’t work, so why should you wear them. You know…the guys that ignored years of medical science because feelings. Feeling that you might be emasculated by a thin piece of paper.

Insulting a Dem because they took they’re mask off really isn’t the “own” you think it is. It just brings a spotlight on where you stood during that time…fearful of a mask. Lol. So brave of you not to wear one. Such a patriot.

Mate, metaphors like this help understand the gravity of the situation to help us see WHY certain actions are bad. From an uneducated standpoint, DOGE might not seem so bad unless you understand that Hitler rose to power on such things:

• The dismantling of bureaucratic checks
• The centralization of power
• The targeting of political opposition
• The use of propaganda to justify reforms

These metaphors aren’t bullshit…they are just getting more accurate.

Yeah mate! That one! The one that says “he’s just joking! No body is allowed to make jokes these days.” Unless he was actually serious, in which case, “it’s a masterclass strategy by our genius leader.”

You know…that one.

No no…it was the one that justified everything he said and sane-washed it as being “not that bad”.

Ooc, why would you update documents to remove references to the new tool?

…what was the program supposed to do Carl?

WHAT WAS IT SUPPOSED TO DO!?

That’s fucked. That whole thing is fucked. Tennessee should be on fire over this shit.

this has nothing to do with any maga anti-vaccine laws. Although this outbreak is in Kansas, the TB vaccine is not used in the US, not even in blue states, except in rare special cases.

Mate. It literally explains in the article that:

• Tuberculosis vaccine is not mandatory and hasn’t been required for almost 20 years.
• That the controversy around COVID vaccination and the laws they pushed validating those imaginary fears made people fearful of vaccines, and by proxy, basic preventative healthcare.

The whole point of the article was to point out that the unintended consequences of pushing laws and regulations built on fear have harmful repercussions - i.e. you now have a population that thinks COVID isn’t that bad, that won’t wear masks, isolate, or go to the doctors…in the middle of an outbreak that is extremely similar to COVID.

Oh, the irony…you’ve managed to out yourself as not even having read the article. But go you for managing to try and shit on the subject.

We did it Patrick! We saved Palestine!

It’s roughly 10% of our US steel supply (or around 40% of all of our steel imports)…meaning prices are going to start going up. This is going to hurt…

Ha 😂. Sorry. Yeah, typing on a phone is difficult at times. It’s just a hypothetical. A thought experiment. It’s also 4am, cut me just a little slack. Have a good night/morning!

I mean, if your reading at an 11th grade level while in 5th grade, why should you be forced to stay in a 5th grade level class? It becomes boring and students stop applying themselves. I was reading things in 5th grade that most of my peers would have never read. I would destroy an 600+ page book in a week. I understand that there are foundations that need to be built, but having a one size fits all method of education I worry does more harm than good. I honestly feel that a school of this style would have allowed me to truly excel, instead…I never even got to really apply myself. I got through school fine, but it just felt like a waste of time. I almost didn’t even go to college - felt like it was going to be a waste of time. It wasn’t until I actually got into college that I realized education gives you back what you put into it…It was the first time I was ever truly challenged, and good lord that woke me up.
