the fact most reports are leaving out that he was killed protecting his husband during a homophobic hate crime where his dead dog's skull was placed in their mailbox as a threat is leaving some important details out i think

hell yeah!

We can do so, so much better than Donald Trump as a nation. I feel like we're regressing and watching the world pass us by due to Donald Trump's behaviors and policies.

Political violence undermines the greatness of our country and our people.

Thank you!!!

My idea's towards pursuing a parliamentary model of government whilst retaining the federalist system. The parliamentary model empowers the legislature and forces consensus-building and coalition-building.

kinda fitting that America's dictator isn't a strong arm guy that works menacingly behind the scenes but instead an extremely online grandpa with dementia who just posts his dumb shit & then the menagerie of dipshits who serve him rush to appease him before he throws his McDonalds order at the TV

I staunchly, staunchly agree, and I live my life accordingly.

The world needs people who understand kindness and empathy and decency more than ever, I imagine. Also humor. Fuck me, please be nice and funny. You are a hero.

I'm hijacking this to support an opinion I already had - I believe that possessing colonies only serve to hurt you and delay your social, political, and material development. I do not believe colonies, in this time, facilitate trade.

How do you make the move? I'm hoping to move to N. England.

It's a start - though personally, I'd like to see it set higher than $17 per hour. Our labour's worth more than $7.25 an hour. It's worth more than $17.00 an hour, but I'd rather be paid $17 than $7.25.

how do we fire him

This is a pretty extraordinary thing -- not sure I've seen or heard of anything like this before.

one of them came up with a good point, however; i gotta get rid of the keywords on my bio, it makes me a target

looks like i've attracted the ire of a few people.
well, ideological alignment is important to me, but i'm against attaining power for the sake of attaining power, and i'm for the redistribution of resources towards something more modest and equitable, whilst still rewarding innovation

Today the major antitrust trial against Meta kicks off. When dominant companies use their size to buy up their competition, consumers suffer. Strong antitrust enforcement like this is key to giving consumers more choice and strengthening our economy.

maybe i should adopt your style of bio

It's a start.

I'm inclined to agree; the primary purpose of engaging in this behavior is to produce profit, and without a governing body or functioning oversight structure, ethics and morals go out the window. They'll do absolutely anything to maximize profits, other people be damned. And I hate it.

at this point, i sadly doubt anyone would change their mind, even if it was a photogenic white girl from south carolina

If the Kremlin is fuming, it's safe to assume you either dropped some truth or came up with a brilliant idea.

according to my friend, this is "cartel behavior"

i'm afraid it is the case.
i'm reminded of why i left twitter after 2015
just got suffocated by others who were essentially fighting for the same cause

I grew up in 1980s Soviet Union. I was just a kid, but old enough to have living memory of what it felt like and parents who experienced life there as full adults. I never thought I'd experience anything resembling that in modern US, but the parallels are becoming too much to ignore.

target the shareholders and liquidate their assets. free us from these trusts and fund our welfare system, our educational system, and allow the masses to utilize the material wealth to achieve happiness

If you’re going to spend centuries demonstrating to rich white men that the law doesn’t apply to them, then don’t be surprised when they act like the law doesn’t apply to them.

Literally all of this was preventable.

I've seen some people saying how "AI"-generated text is now as good as certain published authors, and honestly I think it's really brave for these folks to admit in public how poor their reading comprehension has to be

you had a good point and then you went straight for dogma
your ad hominem places you no better than a MAGAt
join a protest and help us get rid of our idiots
