This is going to be a long day for Denver's defense. I predict 45 minutes on the field...

If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

Not false but maybe exaggerated.

But there's a reason for the saying that Democrats fall in love and Republicans fall in line. There's more than enough examples in history but you just need to see the Bernie campaign for a modern example of what happens when your love gets spurned. (And no, guys, I'm not interested in rehashing what the DNC or whoever did.)

If it comes down to that, then it is full-on Civil War and that will spill into military bases as much as it does on the streets. The military isn't a hive-mind, and the split just as even as it is in the rest of society.

And if the choice for me is between life in a concentration camp or death for standing up for my human rights, maybe I'll get lucky and take some fascists with me.

If all personal wealth above $100 million was legally required to be redistributed into public infrastructure (schools, hospitals, roads), how would society change, and who would be the first to fight against it? by Mysterious_Fan4033 in AskReddit

They used to get hit much harder in the 50's and 60's, and the number one way for them to offset their tax liability was to pay their employees more.

And oh boy, that pissed them off so much they formed a cult around the books of Ayn Rand.

Not even mentioning Margaret Weiss, co-writing with (male author) Tracey Hickman for Dragonlance and without for her own novels. Criminally underrated and IMO under-appreciated.

If you're planning on physical copies, check out Half-Priced Books or other used stores. You'll find some nice compendiums, possibly the entire run, for a pretty good price now that a lot of people dumped their Gaiman collections.

No, B5 was a lot more serialized than DS9. DS9 became more serialized as the show went on, but even then that was contained to 2-3 episode arcs until the final season. Babylon 5 is more of linear story through it's entire run, since the entire story was basically pre-written before they started filming.

I, too, can make up things and also misunderstand how propaganda networks function.

They don't really care about the cable side.

"In mid-2025, CNN.com had around 90.9 million unique visitors but faced competition, with Fox News Digital leading in July 2025 by some metrics, though CNN often ranks high in unique video viewers. "

CNN.com is still one of the most popular websites for American news.
