It’s so obvious the democratic party lied about Biden to get through the nomination phase and used the fact that the money already donated for the campaign was specifically to Biden or Harris and would not have easily been given over to any other new candidate.

the argument for this one is that the super pac was biden/harris, not any other random person, so it's questionable whether they would've been able to use super pac funding at all especially at such short notice, given the technicalities of super pac funding. The majority of DNC funding, sure, but super pacs are most of the money in elections these days.

yeah that sounds about right, im guessing it's not exactly public facing either, probably an off platform thing if i had to guess. It'd be wild to be posting that shit directly on the sub though.

Murder has been ok? When?

Maybe for criminals, or witches if you like the salem witch trials, but last i checked everybody hates those.

it's definitely interesting, personally i dont really care what you do as long as it's consistent, if you think what luigi did is based, then sure, but you better also say that murder is based. Otherwise you're being hypocritical.

People just want to pick and choose who dies, which again, if you like murder, by all means, please.

that is true, but it's not like we have things like imminent domain.

yeah but then i shouldn't have to pay for it, i should be able to rent it, or lease it. Which to be fair, i guess leasing is the closest thing.

there's also stuff like gas tax, which often funds roads. Infrastructure often isn't really related to the amount of property there is anyway. It's related to the amount of land, and density per sq mile. But i guess you could charge farmers a lot of property tax, since they own a lot of land, that will solve that problem.

except for the fact that it's a wealth tax on wealth that's not really consequential. An income tax by definition must tax ALL income earned by an individual, you cannot hide from that, it's definitionally, evasion.

because you can literally find it on the internet, it's not a big secret or something. It's literally the law, and the law is public.

but that's not going to be comparative to the amount of wealth they own though. Unless of course you artificially raise the value of land, but that's not going to make it any more expensive now is it?

yeah, that's called tax evasion, which is fraudulent. That's bad. I feel like i don't have to explain this, but the obvious implication is that we should fix tax evasion, by preventing loopholes. And shutting down the rest of the frankly, redundant tax law that doesn't really do anything except make it more complicated, and harder to track.

thats not actually all that true, spread usually tends to respect borders a little bit, but only because those borders are generally a choke point. Usually spread is going to be via things like planes and airports, which tend to uh, bypass them. Although i wonder how much livestock flies by plane.

It also depends on how it spreads, there are a few theories, one is due to the migratory behavior of birds, and if that goes over canada, that could very well be the case, but it's not strictly clear how it's even managing to spread right now.

could be for good reason, there's a huge bird flu outbreak in the US right now, plus the US also has really strict egg washing laws, so depending on where these eggs are going, and assuming that it isn't just eggs, which is likely, it could make sense.

how well known is the sub? Are we talking like, 30 users, or like 300k users.

daily reminder that you can just use they/them in place of he/her she/him pronouns because that's literally a designed feature of the english language.

oh shit my fellow db0 instancers, i'm here too!

i mean yeah, generally when a society idolizes a killer, it's not for a particularly good reason (society wise)

and before anybody tries to yap about it, no there would only be a potential long term benefit to this kind of thing, slight shift in politics, maybe on the extreme end a government uprising, which will take many a year to come to fruition, and cause many years of instability. Generally these kinds of things only bring short term problems, when acted upon, humans are just animals, the salem witch trials happened for a reason, if left unchecked, this would turn into a bloodbath very quickly. Lots and lots of people would die. most of them not billionaires.

this would also be susceptible to magnetic field switching as well, shouldnt be a huge technical limitation, but im not sure accuracy is going to be quite as good.

there's a significant difference in jamming capability between different frequencies? Are you jamming them from space or something?

That doesn't really seem like a significant technical limitation to me.

this is just some autistic shit from musk most likely.
