I don’t know. We could ask them.

What a shockingly level headed response to the whole event.

I wish we still had sanity like that in the US. I’m sure the kid would have been taken into custody here and the police would have rushed into the school with guns drawn, scaring all the staff and children, and later crowing about how they heroically thwarted a terrorist attack.

It’s disgusting to see that all of these articles are downvoted by our own resident pro-genocide nazi Zionist monsters. Imagine being onboard with children burning to death.

They defrauded banks, not the cardholders. “Identity theft” is a BS shifting of the responsibility from the bank to a third party who often bears no responsibility for the bank being duped.

“Let me be very direct: We cannot allow individuals to flee from officers with a loaded firearm aimed at them,” she said. “When this happens, the outcome is almost always tragic. No one wins, and everyone involved is affected.”

Absolutely disgusting mindset for the police to operate in and it should be a condemnation of them, not an excuse for killing a fleeing person merely suspected of committing a property crime.

Armed gang murders member of the public (with the full intention of “investigating” themselves and finding they did nothing wrong), is shocked that public would kill one of their own, and expects the public to shed tears for their fellow gang member (who was really a great guy… every other gang member loved him).

Let’s hope their efforts are undermined by Trump’s disrespectful blue suit.

Why wouldn’t the anarchists be well armed too, especially if that’s an obvious necessity for your commune to survive? The only people in the US who refuse to touch a gun, even if their lives depend on it, are the centrist liberals.

We’ve been ratcheting farther and farther to the right for nearly fifty years. I’m not claiming to be a fortune teller, but this is the direction that both parties have been pushing us (one faster and one slower, but both in the same direction).

Neither of them is on your side. One is definitely playing the bad guy and lesser-of-two-evils can get us out of a disaster a couple of times, but they’re both taking us to the same place in the end.

[ed: To be clear, I don’t think there’s actually a unified conspiracy between the parties. Only that a group of likeminded individuals acting in their own self interest is indistinguishable from a conspiracy. The christofascist stuff is unique to one side, but what each of them has in mind both look like a dystopia for us.]

Nowhere in any of my posts did I say this was good or that I appreciate it. Are you responding to the right person?

This is a shit situation, but you’re doing yourself a disservice thinking that this only started with Trump.

I don’t disagree with you at all.

I’m just pointing out that when the neoliberals slow walk us toward a dystopia, nobody seems to complain or people even come out in defense of them. Trump and his republicans followers are evil morons, but all of the democrats in that list had a hand in bringing us to where we are now.

Trump is a clumsy frog boiler, but that doesn’t mean we haven’t been in this pot for decades at least.

They were Nazis too, or at least Nazi adjacent. They were just smart and competent and playing the long game which would have landed us here in 20-50 years without any domestic resistance.

I think the lesson to be learned is that everything works in the demo (except when it doesn’t), but when it’s deployed to thousands of sites by the cheapest contractors, operated by untrained and unmotivated personnel, and not calibrated or maintained over its lifetime… the reliability goes down a bit.

I agree and it sucks. At the start of the internet, I was convinced that it was humanity’s single greatest accomplishment: near instantaneous worldwide communication between every human was possible. Access to all of our collective knowledge and intelligence at everyone’s fingertips.

Then we discovered what that actually meant, practically. Either all of our collective knowledge amounts to💩 or we’ll let the greedy scum just latch onto it like everything else and turn it into shit for their personal profit.

So if the poster doesn’t constantly monitor the article and continually update their post title, the post will be removed? Even if it’s clear that they aren’t editorializing?

Isn’t this a case of the letter of the rule not reflecting the intent and you should just let it slide (or better yet update the rule)? Why strictly enforce a rule that you know doesn’t make sense?

“Imagine if federal worker unions and Democratic Party officials showed up at the plant gate of a company that was about to close its doors," said one labor advocate recently. "Why aren't the Democrats doing this?"

Because that’s not what controlled opposition does. You’ll drive yourselves mad trying to figure out why the Democrats actions don’t seem to ever accomplish their stated goals. (You’re already mad if you can’t figure out why the same is true for Republicans.)

The rest of the world’s response. When we stop caring enough to even report on it, they stop being drills and go live.

Which facts are those? The fact that if she opposed the genocide at all she would have mentioned it at some point?

Just fuck off with this whole line of argument. If she wanted to claim any sort of moral high ground on this issue, she had ample time to denounce the genocide and claim that she’d stop it, but she didn’t do that.

For a program that has such a profound impact, that seems like such a small budget. It’s a shame that the US cuts $116M to save precious money, while maintaining $16 billion in, for example, petroleum subsidies.
