Target has their own crime lab. No joke.

Canada isn’t under the jurisdiction of American law.

Artificial kidneys are in the test phases. Not sure when they’ll enter trials but it’s very complicated.

I think you may be on to something. That may be a better way to describe it.

If you consider taxing the rich. Unions and attacking companies as far right then sure. He’s always been far right. It sounds like you’ve never read about Vance and that’s why you don’t see the radical change from who he was to supporting Trump.

Vance actually had really good ideas until he went Trump. A mixture of far left and middle right politics. Now you never hear his working class ideas.

It’s hard to imagine this is the guy who said declare war on corporations

His mentor says hillbilly elegy was written to propel him into politics. So I find it hard to believe he wasn’t interested when that was the reason for the book

The mods deleted the admins comment and tried to ban him from the community. That’s a no no in my book.

If the mods felt rooki was wrong, they shouldn’t have tried to display a power trip with their actions. They should have escalated to other admins.

Rooki deescalated by removing them as mods. That stopped their childish behavior.

@lwadmin For full disclosure I agree with rooki on this topic.

I may have missed it in the write up but I think the vegan mods needlessly escalated the situation by trying to ban and remove comments from an admin.

I am not saying I always agree with rooki but I respect his job as an admin.

The mods of vegan treated him disrespectfully in his capacity as an admin by deleting and banning him.

You should cover this in your terms of service.

They’re just excited the person isn’t half dead.

She wasn’t able to get a nomination through the standard channels. They had to put her in the back because they felt she was damaging Biden approval ratings.

He approval rate is low.

More people disprove than approve.

I proudly voted for Obama Kamala is not Obama. She’s not Clinton. Hell she’s not even a Joe Biden.

The president isn’t in charge of COVID. States are in charge of COVID. Pandemics are handled by the states with help from the federal government. BLM protest are once again state issues. I’m not sure why so many Americans don’t understand how the government is run. Presidents are not dictators. They are limited by the constitution and laws.

No why is the split so close? Harris isn’t a good candidate. She’s wildly unpopular and has been for years. He policies are horrible and the average American doesn’t want them. They are the opposite of what Americans want.

Biden has always been fairly unpopular. I’ve always thought the guy was an idiot but he isn’t far left. He fairly moderate to Leaning a little right.

We also have a large red/blue divide in this country and presidents are picked by the EC.

Trump is a horrible candidate but things ran well when he was in office. People will remember that.

The short version is we are running two awful candidates and that’s why the elections are close.

Not sure who those people are but they don’t seem well versed on the topic.

If you haven’t read the most recent SCOTUS ruling. It foreshadows their views on the topic. SCOTUS determines want is constitutional.

There hs enough case law from scotus to point to wealth taxes as being unconstitutional

Judges have immunity. So the lawsuit won’t go anywhere.

It’s amazing how immunity people in power have

Wealth taxes are unconstitutional in the United States. It would require an amendment to change that.

Capital gains should just be taxed an ordinary income. That would solve a lot of issues such as Medicare, social security, etc.

On lemmy we don’t see who upvotes or downvotes

Some mods want echo chambers with false information.

I don’t want a “truth” monitor but sometimes it needs to be done.

I think it's funny they thought they could censor an admin. I fully support Rooki on this.

It’s his passion project. It’s not “working” when it’s something you love.

He just put an injunction in place which is common. It just means the case has to be decided first.

If he’s accusing them of venue shopping. I suspect he’s going to rule against them.

Polling has shown he’s taking votes from Biden mostly.
