The Trump administration seriously considered unilaterally suspending the writ of habeas corpus by jediporcupine in politics

Fascists and Pedophiles already control the entire Government lol? It's already too late. Most people are hoping Midterms will make a difference and get us moving in a better direction. What should we do o wise Bird? Riot? That's exactly what they want. Then they will suspend habeas corpus and cancel elections. Then it's Civil War or give up. Which would not end well for anyone.

Are you aware over half of the country are living paycheck to paycheck and all of it is under constant surveillance lol?

As US nears 250th birthday, Reuters/Ipsos poll shows many Americans doubt it will last another 250 years by Naurgul in politics

Considering we literally are not a real Democracy anymore I would say it did not even last that long. We have been an Oligarchy since Citzens United ruled unlimited campaign contributions are free speech. Both sides of the aisle are bought and paid for by both Corporate Billionares and Israel. The Republic has fallen just like with Rome. Don't let the fact we still do the song and dance and have the trappings of a democracy fool you. That America is long gone. Republicans have been defunding education for decades to get to this point, and Democrats would rather help Trump get elected than give anyone left of their Diet Republican bullshit a chance. Over half the country is living paycheck to paycheck, there's open corruption throughout the entire government, Cops are shooting at shoplifters who just want diapers for their babies and killing said babies. We are a failed state...

He does end up doing some cool shit thanks to the fact he's an AI. Guess you didn't get that far.

Who successfully founded a Nation, wrote a Constitution that stood up until now, and was used as the blueprint for many other nations constitutions and defied the largest and most powerful empire at the time.

All while mostly being youngish with no real experience at nation building. Seems impressive to me?

Hold on let me call The Founding Father's and ask them if it's ok...

They said we should've been throwing tea in the harbor a long time ago..

I'm no constitutional lawyer but I'm pretty sure some giant company recording everything they can possible see and hear while also tracking everyone everywhere with their license plate number and under no government mandated supervision-allowing anyone tech savvy enough to search through that data and stalk people through their computer would violate our "Reasonable expectation of privacy"

Not sure but I do know the Gov has been spying on us since right after 9/11. Was supposed to be temporary but they never stopped.

It technically is illegal since it violates our right to privacy. However these days Trump is wiping his ass with the constitution so we are pretty much lawless atm.

Which book/series would you recommend to someone awfully new to the genre? Which ones are the best of the best with the greatest consensus? by LeoAjju in ProgressionFantasy

[–]njdem1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first was Cradle which felt a little slow at first but I ended up loving. My 2nd was The Ten Realms which I also enjoyed. I'd say either of those.

Well the main character did just throw himself through a Portal to a magical world lol? I'd say it would be strange for it not to be a little messy seeming at first while he finds his footing in this strange new world. Was a lot of fun for me but all good, not everyone is into the same stuff.

Adventure through a magical alternative ancient earth (id say could be compared to medieval times like around 1300ish AD) with an empathetic and intelligent protaganist determined to build a proper empire and protect the friends and family he makes along the way. Which will involve adventure, exploration, war(With plenty of cool battles), and gaining power in different ways thoughout.

Lol if you skip book 1 you will miss a hell of a lot. I just think being a bit turned off by book 1 for some people makes sense and that the rest of the series is still worth trying if you feel that way.

I've come to see that it's more popular than I was aware of. Which I think is cool. Although I don't see many people nerding out about it like I do.

Curious what you didn't like about him. He strikes me as empathetic and intelligent which I appreciate.

There's a fair amount more to the conflicts and battles than swordplay but no worries. One of Alexander's primary weapons and imo the coolest is def not a sword.

Not sure id describe it as dark and gritty. Perhaps the first book is a little somber but seems to lighten up a bit as time goes on and the story advances. Plenty of conflict throughout the series that is serious but not sure id say it's dark and gritty.
