  • The rich aren't the ones generally taking out the student loans through the federal program.

    Most rich people schools are also private, so don't qualify for most loans through federal programs.

    This is an incredibly dishonest argument.

  • About 10 years ago it was probably closer to 80% IPAs. It was a big joke here that IPA stands for I Pretend (I'm not an) Alcoholic.

    The only reason there is more on the market now is because we all stopped pretending the taste of motor oil with grapefruit gave us a better buzz.

    Even now, most breweries will only seem to offer 4 varieties of IPAs, a pilsner/lager and a stout. Maybe an Amber but I feel the Mac & Jack's copycat scene has mostly died out now.

  • I really don't know about that. It's a $20,000 camera probably, but there is a good chance the rig itself is likely 10 years old, so the lens is likely the only thing they could make a few hundred off of, but that isn't enough for a 3 man job.

    I suspect robbing a journalist and taking their camera is to make their name known. They probably ditched the camera pretty close to immediately.

  • Yeah, this was the outcome that was predicted when they allowed real estate brokers to also be property managers.

    People wonder why starter homes havent existed on the market for 25 years and the answer is because nobody builds them, and when they do go up for sale, real estate agents are sending them the way of clients they already represent as property managers.

    Why sell a house for 3% commission just once when you can sell it to somebody you are already partnered with and then make a 5% comission every month for the rest of your professional career while maybe only putting 15 hours per year worth of work into the unit?

    Pretty much every issue in America comes down to the partnership of banks, real estate agents and landlords.

  • If we let conservatives ban 1984, they will be forced to stop pretending they have read it, and comparing everything irrelevant to it, while we can still illegally access it.

    Something to think.about.

  • From the government's perspective? There is often value in releasing the person. They almost never realize their phone lines are tapped and the first thing they do is run to their friends and start incriminating them further.

    There is often the issue that these right wing cells are without their knowledge governmental "stay behind" cells who are operating somewhat under the jurisdiction of factions of the US government who are legally barred from operating clandestine missions on US borders.

    In terms of the Proud Boys, their leader is a journalist who was officially on the Canadian pay roll before they became a fascist paramilitary leader. Seeing that immigrants who are members of political extremist groups are barred from having permanent residence in the US, while registered spies are not. These are things we have to speculate on, unfortunately.

  • You guys are the protection from cops? Brother, they dress up like you to throw bricks through windows as excuse to go after the rest of us.

    Now you want us dress like you so that the media can then take the cops side when the fighting starts?

    You are not our protection and we are not your cover.

  • When anarchists and tankies are dressed that way at protests, it isn't possible to tell whose side they are on. Are they there for civil rights, or are they right wingers (or even undercover cops?)

    I also don't buy the argument you guys make good protection at protests. Against who? The cops? Every person who goes to a civil rights protest knows the history, they know the risks, and they go anyway.

  • That single sentence in a body of work you acknowledge agrees with me isn't a very good smoking gun.

    Jefferson was the ideological head of a conspiracy to steal land and autonomy from a theocratic state. I also believe some of the first laws enacted by the warring colonies was that Anglican churches were no longer allowed to swear allegiance to the king.

    I don't know why its 2023 and there is still this active fight to reframe the creation of the US itself as a Christian act.

  • Were any of those States allowed to keep their state religions after the ratification of the constution or did they immediately start following the law and separated their recognition of a church being the state religion?

    But yes, the constitution outright was outlawing the formation of theocratic arms of the state.
