Aaron Carter was there to beat Shaq, clearly.

If any of the components have advertising on them I'm removing that game from my library and never touching another game from that publisher, ever. One of my reasons for getting into board gaming was to avoid this shit.

I'm not the one making the comparison here. Saying that Biden's secretary of state is "as bad or worse than Trump", who already served 4 years as POTUS and killed millions of people, is fucking crazy. That's all. Anthony Blinken simply hasn't had the power to cause as much damage as Trump has already caused.

Blinken is a piece of shit, and has supported monstrous actions. He is no where near as bad as Donald Trump, even based on actions they've both already taken.

He's as bad or worse than Trump.

This is a crazy ass statement.

There's got to be a line where "low-info" becomes a choice. I don't know where that line is, but "Donald Trump is an imminent threat to democracy" is absolutely past that threshold.

I would blame both. The malfeasance from the oligarchs doesn't absolve any individual of blame for their own individual actions. Both groups are assholes in different ways.

If someone sat at home on election day or voted for anyone but Harris they absolutely endorsed this. They should go to their graves knowing every single thing Trump and crew does is because they allowed it to happen.

I'm saying "the way the US government works doesn't match what the US constitutions says" and I'm getting angry responses saying "no, it's not working that way!" Yes, that's what I said.

You're arguing that congress doesn't have the authority to delegate policy to federal agencies. This is where I disagree. They do not need a specific mandate to take action. That's not what the Constitution says, and that's not what legal precedent said until a wholly ineligible SCOTUS claimed otherwise. They have no enforcement arm whatsoever. Federal agencies should continue regulating as normal and ignore the courts. If Congress wants to pass a law stating "this is HOW we want you to regulate this specific area", that's great (they wont, because inaction is fine with conservatives). But I'm not accepting this magical waiving of a wand to now put the entire day to day operation of our federal government in the hands of Congress.

that didn't give it the authority to implement net neutrality rules

It gave them the authority to regulate communications. Net neutrality rules are well within that scope. The paradigm that you're asking for is not a sustainable way to run a country of 300 million plus people. Congress has the power to delegate specific policy decisions to said agencies.

SCOTUS can kiss my ass. We shouldn't recognize any of their decisions anymore.

Everything is futile now. The time for progressive change in America is over for the foreseeable future. People need to get that into their heads.

This is precisely the headspace the fascists want us in and it does nothing but strengthen their position.

Sobriety is not on the table for a couple years at least.

They need to take responsibility and pass an actual law, not let regulatory agencies invent them on their own.

How did the FCC come to exist?

"But what about last time! The guard rails worked! It won't be that bad.”

Meanwhile every single guard rail is 50 miles behind us.

100%-ing that shit during lockdown was one of the hardest gaming feats I've ever accomplished. Next lockdown is going to be the DLC.

If it makes you feel better, no one on the right actually cares about a fetus either. It's purely a political cudgel for them to use. As a country, we completely lack empathy.

How else are they going to get cash from the Russians and Saudis?

Money laundering. It's money laundering all the way down.

Hell yeah, my wife won't play Arcs with me. I fully support more board gaming.

Oklahoma’s government is full of scumbags.

Fixed.
