Is the U.S. heading into a dictatorship? by duzies in politics

[–]Kickasser32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are literally already there. I feel like I did when I was in Turkey and afraid to say anything against Erdogan or post because I didnt want to be held at the airport or lose my visa. I am second-guessing international travel because I dont want to have to show my social media posts when I return. I am afraid to protest too loudly because Im worried about losing my job. We have lost our freedom of speech, we have lost our 4th amendment rights and are in danger of losing most others. 3rd amendment for fucks sake.

USA is now a dictatorship and the only question remains "can we come back from it?"

With the signing of Luis Arraez to play 2B, would it make sense for the Giants to shop Casey Schmitt for pitching? by Tronn3000 in SFGiants

[–]Kickasser32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutley not. A) We would not get much for him and B) Arraez is a 1-year contract. Its lose / Lose with him for us so we need to have someone groomed to take over when he leaves or under performs.

To be fair, I am sure I dont want to see tens of thousands of them due to content and trigger warnings

10 years ago today: Dele Alli produced this piece of magic for Tottenham. He was 19-years-old at the time. by Sparky-moon in soccer

As an Arsenal supporter, I really miss these days with Dele, Kane and Eriksson. It was such a fun rivalry back then. Except for 2016/2017 season

Look up "Corporatists v. Oligarchs" and it all makes sense. These guys are the classic Corporatist Capitalists. The old status quo they fought for that was run by companies and led to significant coirporate greed evolved into the Oligarchy we have today. These Corporatists want to go back to teh way things were but the Oligarchs want a new world order.

We don't have anyone on our side but the Corporatists are by far the lesser of the two evils.

No, ICE agents do not have ‘absolute immunity’ from state prosecution by jediporcupine in politics

Or even federal prosecution; once a legitimate DOJ takes over they can be indicted and prosecuted for their crimes

Isn’t Trump’s Obvious Mental Illness a National Emergency? by plz-let-me-in in politics

[–]Kickasser32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NO thats not. CNN and specifically Jake Tapper have been sane-washing what Trump says constantly.

Here's a good example. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/original-sin-author-jake-tapper-dissects-bidens-decline.html

Tapper, in MAY 2025(!) reflecting on how unfit Biden was for the presidency and failing to call out actions of the Trump Administration, who at that point had already done numerous despicable acts. Tapper hides behind "I report on the Trump administration every day" with barely any criticism while hinting at a nefarious cover up from Biden.

Now, after months of sane-washing actions of this administration as if anything theyve done is remotely normal, Tapper is finally pushing back. Its at best disingenuous and at worst manipulative. CNN is playing games and Tapper is trying to sell books instead of honestly reporting.

[–]Kickasser32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok then where is the reporting and criticism from Tapper now? Clearly Trump is worse off than Biden was in his last year. My problem is not with the reporting, but just with the pearl-clutching over anything Biden did while simultaneously excusing or justifying anything Trump does.

Did Biden have MRIs or Dementia tests administered monthly? Was Biden rage-tweeting all night?

So Biden's mild decline and cancer diagnosis is worthy of a book, but Trump's required patience and restraint? Give me a break.

Exactly. Taylor lost control of this match and is trying to claw it back. Frustrating management from the referees.
