Since this decision isn't based on science, perhaps legal action could be applied here. Given the amount of empirical evidence, it would be relatively easy to demonstrate the government is in the wrong here.

Don’t look away from MN. ICE is still wreaking havoc across the state - changing their tactics to deceive Minnesotans - pretending to be construction workers or folks delivering groceries. Still over 2,000 ICE agents in the state. They’re not going anywhere, your anger and outrage shouldn’t either.

NSA detected phone call between foreign intelligence and a person close to Trump Whistleblower says that Tulsi Gabbard blocked agency from sharing report and delivered it to White House chief of staff

NSA's whistleblower report is about contacts between foreign intelligence and someone close to Trump. Instead of acting on this information to protect the United States, Gabbard tipped off the White House and squashed an internal investigation to protect Trump.

Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.

Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake.

So apparently, white Americans in Minneapolis are putting Mexican flags on their cars so ICE agents waste time pulling them over. They call it ICE fishing.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

In fact, the concept of "being black" was pretty much invented to justify African enslavement. Races weren't really a thing before the 18th century...

Sorry I thought you were advocating for an uprising, given that you seem to have abandoned the political process. It can be hard to tell in these threads.

There you go again with the insults.

These would have more impact if your arguments weren't just circular garbage fuelled by ideology.

We're done here.

No, you should vote against the guy who wants to actually jail and kill people for being communists.

Or are you incapable of understanding that you can vote against a candidate in a two-person race?

Not really a winning message for those who oppose bona fide fascists.

Reforming and regulating capitalism is anti-laissez faire capitalism. "True" Capitalism is basically the absence of economic regulations, so regulating it certainly transforms it into something else, which can be managed by a democratic government.

The same can be said of revolutions, so that's not really an argument against my position, sorry.

It is up to voters to be informed. If people didn't vote for Harris on that issue alone, knowing this would help Trump get elected, then they failed in their responsibility as citizens.

Sure, but that's not the point. If both options are equally bad on genocide (which is debatable), then one votes based on other criteria.

We're not talking about you. You guys should stop trying to make it personal.

You provided a rationale for not voting for Harris, I offered a counterpoint.
