First time studying American English?

Small government for rich, white land business owners.

Big brother for everyone else.

It's definitely nowhere near 75%.

Maybe 75% of people talking about computer operating systems, sure.

🤡

Where are the pro-Israel rallies?

Most of the working class stands with Palestine.

I cannot even imagine what it must be like to try to evacuate at short notice, with nowhere to go.

It's a radicalizing experience, to say the least.

Yikes.

Not really.

I'd give 0 shits if people in 'positions of power' smoked marijuana while it was illegal.

Heck, I'd support them for their civil disobedience!

It's easy to get confused because a lot of people who left England did so because they had no other prospects or no other choice, in the case of criminals or financial delinquents.

Reading up on the founding of the US is a doozy. Essentially, all the rejects of England sailed to the 'New World' because there was more opportunity for them there than at home.

The ones who had it good stayed in England.

It's called the "First Amendment," and you'll find it can be used to justify/unjustify all sorts of things depending on the current government in power.

That's more insane than what the original comment pointed out.

Accountable for what? Something that should be legal in the first place?

Do you also think marijuana users should be named and shamed?

Sex work also has a way of subverting patriarchal norms upon which the status quo rests.

cough, what? No, it reinforces those norms. Men in power get to have women at their beck and call.

This isn't a capitalist thing. Just look at how profitable the sex industry is in Nevada.

It's a "holier than thou" thing that we just haven't been able to get rid of in our society.

As much as I like calling out greed for what it is, this simply isn't one of those cases.

Puritan values.

Legalize.

So tired of censorship.

That's fine. We got our powerful computers to work with until then.

Yikes.

Building everything from scratch is one thing.

Maintaining it is completely different.

Por que no los dos?
