I think sugar is healthier, that high fructose stuff is horrible

Yes; so one can view this as state propaganda ( officially done by the nation).

That is hard to work around. But it has limits and the social fabric of the country is changing: both by technology and a rebound of the internal mass migrations of the last few decades.

A lot will change

There is always hope. It’s just that there are no daily stats yet.

I’m not an expert; but after looking at political turmoil in the last few decades I tend to categorize this stage as the “march of the idealists”, lovely bunch of people who would not hurt a fly.

Not sure if when or how the less kind sort of people come in. Usually, something has to rile up those people. And it’s not done by sympathetic stories or appeals to the heart strings.

I try to set it to seldom used numbers. It’s part of my fight to remain human in a conforming world.

I doubt they would be in much danger. Maybe get an angry letter or egging of their houses.

The ranting of a senile man with unknown amount of partial control over the military and government .

It is terrifying, especially after he said Tehran should evacuate. He completely freaked out a city the size of New York.

Endless war

I’ve seen these come up every few years, and not just about Iran. Don’t seem to do much

I bet this is just correlation. Frequent reliance on AI ( and not just using it as a tool for a specific reason)

Legal operators do this

In Texas, where I live, it’s illegal for me to vote by mail in ballot. I will be able to vote this way when I am 70 years old.

Many states have different methods, some better or worse.

The recount thing made me very excited the last few years. I totally agree with what you said.

It’s easy enough to get a printed receipt, and make a paper trail. It’s rarer to have those used.

Americans should use more paper ballots, instead of using methods that people don’t understand and cannot prove is accurate

I would be happy if there were regular protests this size. But the only regular protests in the foreseeable future will be the much smaller ones against ice?

Americans still seem to be learning how to protest, and are busy congratulating themselves on a false start

What is planned after this ?

Why are army people monitoring domestic reactions to ice ?

lol I remember the patriot act; forgotten battles… I had so many issues with stuff going on at that time and was pretty naive then too. I think one of the things that made me realize how messed up things were, were the amazing reactions to 9-11 and similar. I was just stunned

I can see that. Also, in my post above I forgot about the shooting down of Iranian missiles and drones, which seems to have happened a lot? And preparing for retaliatory strikes in Iraq and nearby areas

How many people does it take to passively watch something? There is active involvement from Washington, even if it’s just speeding up deliveries and keeping armories stocked in Israel.

I wish I could help the escapees
