Socialism to them just means "I don't like it and you shouldn't either."

Rules for thee, not for me. Fuckem.

Seems odd. To be consistent, they should jail opposition candidates and stuff ballot boxes and murder traitorous opposition to the one true leader. I propose a new model : The Thunderdome. Two go in, one comes out, until the leader is chosen.

We were ejected from God's brown hole.

“It is shameful,” wrote an ICE spokesman who declined to be named.

Well, that's everything you needed to know. This is what the 2nd ammendment was for. All enemies foreign and domestic.

While I accept the premise of the article, I find it misdirected. If we weren't watching a national housing crisis, a cost of living crisis, the death of the middle class, the climate crisis, the demographic crisis, the healthcare crisis pile up on Canadians one after the other, no one would want change and would fight to preserve our way of life.

But we went down the yellow brick road of neoliberal plattitudes about free markets and privatization and made offshore tax evasion easy and risk free for wealthy Canadians and multinationals alike.

Even today, there are tremendous forces working hard with big money to privatise one of our most effective, efficient and formerly sacrosanct institutions. Healthcare. What good is not paying directly for a family doctor when you've never had one and can't get one?

Public healthcare was fantastically productive and efficient, and the same voices that decry canada's productivity crisis are happy to keep erroding public healthcare and march in the profiteers knowing full well it will be a disaster.

Happy people don't revolt. You got unhappy people, it will be taken advantage of by your rivals and enemies.

But then a lack of healthcare would be self-inflicted and deserved and the racist mysogenist bigots could die with a societal clear conscience.

How did you get the beans above the frank?

Frank and beans!

Arrrgh!

Then: Remember the outrage and confusion when podunk sherrifs departments in Armpit, Anywhere were getting MRAPs.

Why would the police need war vehicles to police their own people?!?!?

Now: Ahh! Now I get it.

How can they? There is little news left. Just propaganda.

It's why the US will fail, quickly.

Does lemmy have a block limit? Reddit does. I hit it.

Double entendre.

They knew.

Cancer treatment is affordable everywhere but the US, so maybe a blessing in disguise?

Publishing is a racket. This should have been done decades ago.

I'd ague that captured opposition means the real fight starts within the DNC because its a big tent party and one of the biggest factions are Republican appeasers.

Its up to Dems to decide if they need to reform the party or make a new one, but the idea that voting blue will bring the change you want. It won't. The real fight starts with party governance and candidate selection.

My kids love the original Tom and Jerry and watched it on you tube. Then they watched the modern remake and they hated it. ¯(ツ)_/¯

I respectfully disagree. They were built for power and control from the start. Monestisation just paid for it and helped adoption.

Dead people also have no claim on the present or future. You can own more, even when the pie is shrinking if you negate others claims.
