The US is paying them to house those prisoners though, which makes it harder to pass the buck onto Bukele. Not to say they won’t try that argument, but this isn’t just a situation of us dropping him off and saying bye.

It’s how Elon has been able to get away with these so far. He touts them like a lottery to get the rubes to vote how he wants, but the money was never part of an illegal raffle. Definitely fraud though, but we’ll see.

”I think that you'd be a lot better having coming under the United States Security umbrella than you have been under the Denmark security umbrella," he said during remarks at Pituffik Space Base

I’m pretty sure after the end of ww2 the only war Denmark has been a part of outside of UN/Nato responsibilities was the Whiskey war, which was cheeky and fun. Unlike America, which for is basically in a forever war with (today’s villain of the week). Not sure I’d call that safer.

He also does not care.

Bullshit. Just like every time some news org tries to peddle this Bs. John Roberts only cares about the appearance of the court in relation to its ability to keep pushing his agenda. Every time the court fucks ya over there is an article just like this pushing how much of a moderate he is and how much he worries over the degradation of tryst in the court. And then he votes ti fuck us over again.

Going to have recalls when they find out the wings are just glued on.

Haha, hell yeah. Saw your reply at the same time op responded to my message and misinterpreted. Agreed.

And my point is that the example you used does not make the point you are trying to make, but rather the opposite. I get what you’re saying, it just doesn’t apply to farmers and mechanics.

No, but if a farmer’s tractor is overheating (as in the gard drive conparison), I’m sure they could diagnose it.

I’m not sure how well that analogy holds up. Farmers are usually pretty well versed in mechanical systems. To the point that now that John Deere has been screwing them over on right to repair that some farmers are even becoming versed in computer programming so they can flash the firmware on their tractors.

Good thing the SC thought to shield us from a constitutional crisis when they deemed the president immune to laws last year. Now we don’t have to fool ourselves into thinking this time would be different.

It really doesn’t help that she falsely accused someone of assault over a handshake like 3 months ago. Or that she spray painted her own property to claim she was being targeted by the dreaded antifa. To say that she has a history of history of attacking her opponents this way would be an understatement.

It appears that you are looking to get all of the benefits of community, while absolving yourself of any of the responsibilities. You want to use someone else’s i stance, without having to follow any of their rules. You want to have your own little safe space to spew whatever it is that obviously goes against community guidelines, but also for that space to be able to interact freely with the community. We don’t want to interact with you on that level, that’s why we are all here, following those rules.

If you really want a place where you can say whatever shitty thing you think everyone eeds to hear, then go make your own instance.

Which will be de-federated from all of these instances.

I’m saying that won’t be a factor in their decision. In a sane world, you would want to avoid that. Over here in the Land of the Free, y’all can raise our costs by 25% and the people at the top will pander about how unfair the 35% increase is while pocketing the extra money the whole time. When all news sources a person gets parrot that same information repeatedly, the populace buys in.

Sadly, you are very mistaken if you believe that anyone in America, including large portions of its populace, are concerned with actual health outcomes or costs. I once had a coworker use the fact that his mother currently could not afford the costs of her broken hip as a reason that we should NOT have universal healthcare access. Literally told me ‘where is her help’ while also asking why he should pay for others healthcare.

Love it, Trump is sanctioning us for being dumb enough to re-elect him. Is there a term for the schadenfreude you get when just trying to cope? Copenfreude?

In Kim Stanley Robinson’s Ministry for the Future, having a government backed social media platform helped to turn around humanity’s prospects. Since we are obviously in the dark timeline, we get government twitter.

My thoughts exactly. Releasing water before the growing season begins makes zero sense. They said it wasn’t to make capacity for an upcoming storm either so just pure dumbassery all around.

‘You were there for us for covid’, haha Newsome really knows how to get under his skin.

Holy shit that’s great! Gonna get a lot of use from that the next four years.
