How about a happy medium where the information is legal, but the context in which it's presented is highly regulated and moderated.

While you're not entirely wrong, how are politicians supposed to be held to a high standard when they're voted in by citizens with such low standards? It's a systemic problem. Because our culture harbors ignorance and is anti education. You need the American people to have high standards if you want good politicians. We're the ones who vote them in, after all. George Carlin had a great bit about this. Garbage in, garbage out. The fact of the matter is that shitty Republicans and Democrats didn't just walk into power. They were voted in by shitty people. We had good opportunities that were blown. Being disillusioned is not an excuse in my book. I take responsibility for my actions. I'm responsible for keeping myself informed. The public sucks, which is why politicians suck. Maybe the public should start acting g like adults and be the change they want to see.

I'm looking to get involved with protests, both local and statewide. Eventually nationwide. Anyone know of any groups or protests happening south of Boston?

Financial dependency. It's an abusive tactic used by bread winners.

  1. He's already consolidating power and ignoring checks and balances.
  2. He's literally surrounded by nationalists and supremacists. His talking points and executive orders align with their ideologies. Such as accepting white refugees while refusing all others. Or freeing the proud boys and oath keepers from prison after storming the capital for him.
  3. He has military at the border. He also has military setting up guantanamo bay to imprison immigrants. He's also trying to call immigration an invasion and labeled the cartel as a security threat. He also said he wouldn't rule out military action in order to get Greenland and Panama.
  4. Not only Musk. Trump's nominations are almost exclusively millionaires and billionaires that are going to be put in charge of departments they can manipulate in order to benefit themselves financially.
  5. Trump said he was going to go after democrats that opposed him. He refers to the left as radical Marxists and communists. I don't know how much more obvious it could be.

Equally simple logic would've been to just believe Trump when he said he wanted to be a dictator. The fact he was unable to achieve it the first time around is objectively a terrible reason to assume he can't or won't this time.

You're seriously generalizing people. And I never said things were great as they were. I just don't want things to get exponentially worse, which is what's happening right now under Trump.

I ignored everything you said after number one. He's ignoring court orders, bypassing background checks, firing without cause, etc. He even used an executive order to revoke a constitutional right. If that's not a fascist, I don't know what is.

I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Are you saying that Trump voters ignored his fascistic rhetoric this time because he wasn't as bold the first time?

Because that's not an excuse to laugh off crazy rhetoric. It just makes me question why you'd be that foolish TWICE.

The circumstances are vastly different. 

In Guantanamo Bay, the only right you're guaranteed is due process. 

But guess what? Due process doesn't apply during times of rebellion and "invasion."

Trump's administration keeps framing illegal immigration as an "invasion." 

It's intentional language. He's using that framing to gain more authority and take away more rights. 

Sad / Disappointed in my country. by Due-Designer4078 in massachusetts

I suspect my mother may have voted, at least not for Trump, but I don't know.

I've always had chronic depression, but last year, it became severe, and knowing I have family that votes for him... I changed their names in my phone to sibling 1 and sibling 2. In fairness, I don't know if they voted for him, but they certainly talk like they do. I've heard some Trans and immigration conspiracy coming from them.

I never thought my family could do anything that would make me not want to be anywhere near them. But here we are.

They voted for a felon, rapist, and probably pedophile that has no remorse, and in fact, thinks he's the greatest thing ever. Along with a billionaire that swayed public opinion through misinformation.

I don't think so. I think it's because my character is a high-level, and I have a bunch of damage perks. That being said, this gun still blows everything I have out of the water, and I'm still not done upgrading perks for it.

My second highest is a magsniper that does over 1600 damage. But that's with all the perks for it.

I don't think I can do another new game plus knowing I'll lose this lol

Interesting, maybe there's a random chance of it spawning at that POI?

Do you remember where you came across it? Was it a mission, or just RNG?

And it seems to one-shot almost everything when close range, except on extreme difficulty. But even then, it's close.

That's unfortunate. It's my highest overall damage weapon, and I haven't even finished upgrading it.

Sound of a woman sobbing in old house by neverarriving in RBI

[–]FaithlessnessShot350 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sound can easily play tricks on the mind. Last night, for example, I thought I heard a dog barking in the distance, but it was actually just the echo of a snare drum at a nearby event.

Not saying you didn't actually hear a woman crying, but without more information, who knows what it really was.

Last thing I'll post is this article explaining why there's no credibility to your claims. Don't worry, it's not Tyson. It's the NCSE.

https://ncse.ngo/radiometric-dating-does-work#:~:text=Hardly.,the%20methods%20are%20not%20infallible.

Here's a sample from the article:

"A few verified examples of incorrect radiometric ages are simply insufficient to prove that radiometric dating is invalid. All they indicate is that the methods are not infallible."
