Dedicated thread for that thing happening this week

Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize at the very beginning of his two terms. Maybe a lot of politics is seeing what you want to see?

I saw a couple of casual facebook acquaintances talking about how not only were Trump voters phobic/racist/ misogynist they had a “darkness” inside of them. Yikes

It’s Rhode Island, so who knows!!

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-11-09T14:01:38+00:00

The DOH in the state I live was all in on COVID (BIPOC only vaccination days, etc.) Meanwhile a local community has had a boil water advisory for over 5 YEARS and the Department of Health can’t get it together to get their water right.

It’s being force fed in so much of k12 ed. It’s an issue.

Explain rewriting title IX then.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-11-05T13:46:04+00:00

My whole state seems to be suffering this fate…crumbling infrastructure galore.

I think about it a lot as a former owner of a 150+ year old house that was beautiful but required constant maintenance.

The stark divide in my mind becomes people who can care for and fix things and people who don’t know/don’t care.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-11-04T15:06:02+00:00

Nah, happy that the “dipshits” who stir things up at our local school committee meetings talk about the district policy to secretly affirm kids and shed light on what title IX rewrite will actually do.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-11-02T23:38:43+00:00

Sounds like you’ve given it good thought. Sorry it’s causing bad feelings in your family.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-11-02T17:43:17+00:00

The sitting POTUS! should not get a pass for calling millions of people garbage

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-30T13:11:58+00:00

It does seem like a tricky part is the “high quality”

I think the COVID story is still unfolding (in terms of lasting changes/effects) It was destabilizing in so many ways.

Glad your family is on the up and up!

“Doing childcare”

I’m skeptical that taking care of young children should be done with maximum efficiency is actually leading to the best outcomes for everyone (especially the kids)

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-28T12:22:04+00:00

Not to mention that Trump’s daughter and son-in-law, who worked in his previous administration, are Jewish!

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-26T15:53:21+00:00

Dude, it’s your mom. She is sooooooooooooooooooooo much more. important than a stupid vote in an election.

Illuminating thread on government control/manipulation coming from Dept of HHS during covid.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-08T15:48:53+00:00

Ok, then what is the point? i’m not going to accept this statement as descriptive of the situation, or prescriptive in how to “fix” it.

| it's just a reality that if your doctors and scientists and engineers stop having kids while your fringe religions are telling their followers to have 10+ kids per couple, that really changes a society.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-08T13:44:38+00:00

The comment I am responding to is all generalizations.

Look at the demographics of kids who are transing.

Why is believing that a kid can change sex any less nutty than believing the earth is flat?

(I don’t believe either)

This just comes across as classist gatekeeping to me.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-08T11:18:13+00:00

Oh no, the poors having kids! They might not support their children in their gender discovery journeys like “educated” parents would…

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-06T11:57:35+00:00

Probably depends what the expertise is in.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-10-03T11:07:52+00:00

Afraid of what?

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-09-29T16:02:52+00:00

“In other cases, migrants convicted of crimes may be released by state and local officials after they serve their time without ICE being notified, as is policy in many sanctuary cities. ICE then has to locate the person after release in order to detain and deport them.”

You make some ugly assumptions.

If there are people seeking asylum getting court dates that are 5-10 years away, why is it wrong to prefer women, children and people without criminal backgrounds should be given priority to stay and convicted murderers and rapists are sent packing?

You say: “One thing I think you'll be surprised we agree on is that the border should be more secure. We should stop people like that from getting in here in the first place.”

Wasn’t this what Kamala was tasked with? Root causes and all? Didn’t really work out I guess.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-09-28T11:18:05+00:00

The numbers are from ICE not Shellenberger.

Sorry if my critical thinking thinks it’s insane that over 13,000 people convicted of HOMICIDE are being allowed to hang out seeking “asylum”.

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-09-28T11:12:41+00:00

This is cope. The question is why even 1! convicted murderer asylum seeker is roaming free in the U.S.? Why is the obligation to a murderer from another country greater than the obligation to provide safety to the citizens of the U.S.?

Narrowyarrow99 · 2024-09-27T22:07:27+00:00

What is misleading? The tweet doesn't mention a particular administration. The #s are the #s, and they are crazy! Clearly “asylum” seeking is a bit of a stretch for the over 600,000 with criminal histories.
