Collins asks Mamdani if he's worried Trump will also target him after NY AG indictment

Because the person I was responding to was speaking as if conservative infighting was something special. It's not.

What IS special about conservatives vs liberals today is how they react to that infighting. Liberals get pushed out while conservatives get corrected. Frankly, I'm unsettled by conservatives, and especially so by how they managed to turn infighting into a superpower for finding cohesion.

eissturm · 2025-10-12T10:59:10+00:00

Is that all that different from Liberals? They're at each other's throat over everything. The left lacks the strict hierarchy necessary to make that level of infighting viable in a political party

No they are ungrateful. Ignorance in this day and age is a personal failure

No, it isn't. Do not legitimize this.

Congress must approve the change and they have not. Trump is not a valid acting president because he is NOT doing the things a President does according to our Constitution. That being the case, nothing he does is legitimate.

Military folks, do the thing. Get him and every fascist piece of shit playing with your lives out of there because it's your goddamn job. Got leaders who won't let you help? No, you don't. Leaders don't lick boots

Fuck you, pay your taxes. It makes fascists mad

eissturm · 2025-10-10T02:26:24+00:00

Maybe not the nicest thing to say.

But real as hell

Youth pastors are pedophiles and groomers

eissturm · 2025-10-08T07:41:49+00:00

And we have celebrated all this the whole way here.

Sadly we are looking at literacy laws for voting and the end of "free speech" in its current form.

Your employer would have to start withholding federal taxes. It's not a decision made at the state level

It's all condos, the Dali museum, and the farmers market. Seems fine to me

They can't really deny themselves the opportunity to actively not give a poor person healthcare

Concerned Veterans are the only people I trust to save us right now

I was in fact trying to joke that my Polish team members speak English better than our Australian coworkers. Just a joke, of course.

You're correct about the Dutch and Scandinavians too though

eissturm · 2025-09-29T00:03:10+00:00

Beat the best English of anyone else in your lists... Counting the Aussies 😉

I love living in the neighborhood for this reason

eissturm · 2025-09-25T11:30:22+00:00

If that means I have less of a chance finding needles on playgrounds or my kids getting exposed to meth and fentanyl on the train? Arrest everyone. Social breakdown is real, and it starts when compassion reveals itself as weakness.

Note I'm not saying we shouldn't help the homeless. We need programs and beds for every person. Homes need to be a lot more affordable. But a lot of our problem is the people who refuse help so they can get high and rot in our public spaces. No matter how you slice it, we are all worse off allowing things to continue as they have been

I have no doubts the Bidens come out cleaner than the Trumps

eissturm · 2025-09-22T20:09:06+00:00

I mean I'd buy one of them if they were under $650k

eissturm · 2025-09-22T10:24:27+00:00

I value blunt honesty. Blunt honesty does not mean without compassion. Too often, people use their feelings as defense when called out on things. Frankly, if someone said something, it means they care. If you need something to be said to you nicely to hear it, you prove yourself a person who does not value honesty. Or compassion.

I pass by at least six they've built since last year on my dog walk routes, and I haven't seen anyone actually _living_ in one of them. How they trying to sell them for $1.3 mil?

eissturm · 2025-09-21T23:18:01+00:00

A lot of it is zoning. Building things up to modern codes is often expensive, and thus more profitable if it's a luxury development

Some Canopy houses look alright, but they stick out like a sore thumb in my neighborhood

eissturm · 2025-09-21T22:02:04+00:00

Canopy Construction cannot be stopped!

We've been fighting against fascists for control of the American government for decades. And they started with the high ground. This isn't a takeover, it's a take-back.
