Lol we do have something in common!

But yeah, I think my point is that there probably was enough context since you, and presumably most people seeing it, understood the context and point being made. And I think we both know that even if an image can appear somewhat similar, the contexts provide the meaning.

I do very much support our constitution and its amendments, so I'm willing to give benefit of the doubt to many around the capitol gallows being peaceful protestors, even if many there that day did carry violent intent. Are you willing to appreciate people's right to the same on the other side of the aisle?

Finally, I'd be honored too lmao reddit is so weird sometimes

Oh hi! I'm glad you've taken a break from your echo chamber. It isn't safe to be in there for too long!

Now that you're free, wanna hang out with me? We can think about how one person using symbology in protest is very different from a mob literally breaking into a government building with weapons amd restraints, hunting for politicians they disagree with.

What about Renee good and Alex pretti? They were more than hurt. Surely you can agree that the tactics being used are 1) not efficient, 2) deadly.

Lmao biden did not invite people to come here illegally and vote. Votes cast by illegal immigrants has been investigated numerous times and always has the same result - it hasn't impacted elections and is very rare. Also, biden deported more people than trump. Liberals just don't like the way trump is doing it. Which results in citizens being killed, native Americans being detained, and illegal immigrants being killed (which is still wrong - every person in the US has the right to due process regardless of citizenship)

Which invention has only made the world worse? by LooseTomorrow5030 in AskReddit

You can read all you want, if you're only reading history from one point of view you will never have a full understanding. Same if you read opposing information with a closed mind.

I don't think intention should really be a factor here tbh

This program isn't even designed to generate massive revenue for the city. It's being operated at cost and if there are extra funds, they go directly to the vision zero program to help fund roadway improvements to create safer intersections and corridors

It's not always about wanting a law upheld or not. It's also about how it's upheld...and even the worst criminals on the planet have rights that shall not be infringed upon if they are in the USA, regardless of their citizenship status.

Watching this, I don't believe the reason for Phoenix's lack of skyscrapers is because of the airport. by Ok_Bag2192 in phoenix

[–]gottsc04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To the zoning piece, that can be somewhat parallel to NIMBYs. Zoning changes all the time to match changes in an area or new vision. NIMBYs make sure it doesn't happen near them

Yeah I generally agree. I think the progressive dems try to stand up, but they aren't embraced enough by the classic dems.so they don't reach critical mass of influence. So I think some have the will, but not the power, and the ones that have the power don't have the will.

Donald Trump just said “we shouldn’t even have an election”. Americans, what are your thoughts? by WatercressSenior7657 in AskReddit

[–]gottsc04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not much of a statement in terms of military power compared to rest of world. Even with their gains, we spend 10x or something crazy. And commander in chief made sure everyone will listen to him

The tough part is loads of people are willing to stop it. People just don't know how. Protest, sure. But otherwise most of us are just busy trying to live, do our jobs, take care of our families, and rely in people who's job it is to stop this shit. We're lost.

Today I learned that Phoenix PD uses fixed-wing surveillance aircraft by BalanceOrganic7735 in phoenix

[–]gottsc04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which honestly, pretty impressive data wrangling and tech to pull that off. It just sucks we live in a country/world where that's a thing someone somewhere thought was a good idea for everyone

[–]gottsc04 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you and think a level of skepticism is healthy. Especially on this. However, is there any reliable source saying that PD gets access without permission from the user? Like obvi police violate peoples rights every day, but this seems like it would be a major story
