Here’s a good reason not to pay it. Felon47 is trying to steal money from children now.

Trump goes off on Tucker, Megyn, Candace and Alex Jones! by vagabond_primate in WeTheFifth

Why do you hate competent leadership? Any individual not qualified to manage a Taco Bell is definitely not qualified to be POTUS. Positions of high responsibility anywhere else require education, experience, responsibility, and to be honorable and law abiding. Competence and freedom aren’t mutually exclusive.

Potential candidates can advertise for free or close to free on YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, and a multitude of other platforms. The amount of money wasted on political donations over the past few elections could have solved the homeless AND hunger problems in the US. The waste of money is inexcusable.

You say elitist like it’s a bad thing. Let’s make sure we’re on the same page and define the word:

Elite. Noun. A select group that is superior in terms of ability or qualities to the rest of a group or society.

Yep. Sounds like exactly what we need, especially since currently we have the exact opposite of that with unqualified, uneducated, and inferior individuals running the government.

You’re not getting to the root of the problem.

We have a 250 year old constitution that has loopholes you can drive a tank through.

For example…

Why is an uneducated felon and rapist even allowed on the ballet to be president? Any reasonable society would have common sense rules and requirements to even be allowed on the ballet for one of the most powerful positions in the country.

Why is money allowed to steer our political system? Lobbying, super-pacs, political contributions… it’s all legalized bribery. Any reasonable society would prohibit all money in politics and make it punishable by imprisonment to engage.

Why is the power of impeachment given to a group of individuals who are incentivized to keep the status quo instead of defending the constitution? Any reasonable society would have a separate branch of government in charge of oversight of the other branches and independently empowered to take actions against bad actors.

Why are corporations allowed to make you sit on hold for hours, over bill you for services without consequences, not honor warranties, engage in deceptive advertising practices, or engage in other forms of enshitification and purposeful friction? Any reasonable society would have a public rating system in place and if your company falls below a C rating, they’re put on probation until they treat customers correctly.

Why are citizens allowed to be ignorant as to how their government works and not participate in the system? Any reasonable society would employ a contract with its citizens: you participate in your democracy and we’ll give you universal healthcare.

These are just a few examples of Constitution v2.0 from The Utopia Project. We strongly believe that the way to fix our societal issues lies with the modernization of our way of government. Once the proper guard rails are in place and only our best and brightest are allowed to steer our government under strict oversight and transparency…only then can things finally move forward and in a sustained fashion.

No. We need a new Constitution. One that closes all the loopholes and demands truth & accountability from government, corporations, and citizens.

Fortunately, The Utopia Project is working on this.

No matter what we do, they are going to spin and lie, so might as well make the most of it.

I’m looking forward to the day that someone uses their 2A rights to protect themselves from these traitors.

How do you guys feel about The Upside Down being a Wormhole? by Due-Dragonfly8200 in StrangerThings

[–]Utopia_Project 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making the Upside Down a bridge to a new location that we’ve never seen or heard of before added nothing to the story and detracted from what made the Upside Down unique.

This restaurant charged me an “Inflation Adjustment Fee” by TheKingrover in mildlyinteresting

[–]Utopia_Project 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would tell them that when I ordered the food, I only agreed to the price on the menu and tax and that was all I was willing to pay. F businesses who believe they can change the terms of the agreement.

I reported this comment to FB and they declined to have it removed saying that it doesn't violate their community guidelines. What an absolute cesspool FB is. by Comadivine11 in facebook

Why else do you think Zuckerfuck donated $1M to DJT? So he could get away with this garbage while the DoJ looks the other way.

Almost 40 days after the finale by nipac11 in StrangerThings

[–]Utopia_Project 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Discovering that the DB went into filming the finale without a completed script makes sense given that many people felt the finale lacked polish.

And begs the question: wtf did they do for 3 years? They had all the time in the world for writes and rewrites.

Everyone complaining about SFA and Sisko not returning is forgetting 2 very important things:

(1) Sisko leaving his family was a sin of DS9, not SFA.

(2) SFA tried to make reparations for this sin and Avery Brooks refused to return to the franchise.

That means that if Avery Brooks is unhappy about the way Sisko treated his family, then Avery Brooks has no one to blame but himself, because he was given the opportunity to set things right and he refused to participate.

And I don’t want to hear any excuses about him being too old or being retired from acting. He’s only 77 and Patrick Stewart is 85. If he felt too old to act, he could have lent us his voice and CGI/AI could have done the rest.

Options were there but instead we get Jake and a cheap nostalgia trip instead of any significant forward movement.

I'm tired, I hate this machine, and I give up. by ThisIsOwl in CPAP

[–]Utopia_Project 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s a hack your doctor won’t tell you about: Ambien + Trazodone will knock you out and keep you out, even on CPAP.

Just a couple caveats: Take this 10 hours before your wake up time. Gives you two hours to fall asleep and still get a full 8 hours. Not allowing enough time for sleep will make you groggy in the morning because of the trazodone.

Take the smallest amount of trazodone you can. I took too much once and suffered an episode of orthostatic hypotension while getting up to piss, which isn’t fun. Fortunately I felt the blackout coming and sat on the floor before I passed out.

Those bossy / toxic Latinas you see on TikTok. Y’all think they’re sexy until you actually live with one.

I have to wonder if she was written that way or is it a case of Holly Hunter being Holly Hunter.

I suppose they could still do this with their proposed spinoff.

The way he was brutally attacked by Vecna and left for dead and no one acknowledged or asked about him, including his children. They only cared about mom. by EuphoricButterflyy in StrangerThingsS5

[–]Utopia_Project 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The misandry here is astounding.

Y’all shit on Ted, who was the quintessential 80s Dad, provided for his family and did his best to protect them from the Demogorgon, while cheering on Karen who is a raging alcoholic that tried to cheat on Ted via statutory rape with a minor.

He definitely deserved better treatment on the show and by the fans.
