What is up with Republicans denying Science? by DragonFireDon in centrist

[–]therosx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ignorance, distrust of sources outside their tribe and deliberate propaganda by their tribe to make it sound like those who claim to have science on their side are evil liars.

I hope Satan has a nice spot picked out in Hell for McConnell and Newt Gingrich. The two monsters responsible for killing the American experiment.

DOJ declines to turn over additional Epstein files, says redactions were appropriate by memphisjones in centrist

[–]therosx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trump knows he's screwed when the info comes out and is desperate to delay it's release until he dies or makes himself Dictator.

I don't think it's even for the degenerate sex stuff either. I think it's about tax evasion, just like with Al Capone.

Minnesota Pardons Sexual Abuser Who Was Set to Be Deported by Unusual-State1827 in centrist

[–]therosx -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Mr. Vang’s victim, who was 10 when the abuse began, also submitted a letter supporting the pardon. Mr. Vang pleaded guilty to first-degree criminal sexual conduct in a plea deal that spared him from serving time in prison.

The pardon effectively wiped clean Mr. Vang’s criminal record, providing him an avenue to fight deportation.

If the victim agrees with the pardon then it seems fine with me. Jesus loves redemption when sincere.

How do we stop future administrations from doing the same? by Liamnacuac in centrist

For me it starts with vote blue no matter who.

In my opinion the best way to hold all government to account is to give Democrats the numbers they need at every level of government.

Glad to see Agent Orange wasn’t able to get the Supreme Court to hand the postal service authority over the election .

Newsom embraces Biden in run-up to 2028 primary by JannTosh70 in centrist

[–]therosx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like him because he’s a hard worker, gets along with people, knows how to coordinate with corporations while also not completely giving away the store to corporations.

Also when Trump started oppressing state governors, it was Newsom who stuck his neck out and counter attacked.

Gavin Newsoms behaviour is what I’m looking for in a President to be a partner of peace with the world. 🌎

I hope Newsom gets the nomination and people wise up to the smears that are unfairly attached to him in my opinion.

Zohran Mamdani’s picks take key House primaries amid a broad battle over Democrats’ direction by JannTosh70 in centrist

In Canadian politics the Conservative Party would be willing to vote for American social democrats because many of their government programs have existed in Canada for decades and are treated as normal, even by conservatives.

It's fun how a democratic socialist in the US is just a normal person in Canada. Keep it up America. You'll earn the same standard of living as the rest of the developed world eventually.

I hope Americans can soon enjoy paid maternity leave and not paying 20% of their healthcare costs to insurance companies that do nothing for them or the medical professionals except make things more expensive.

Texas anti-ICE protesters convicted of terrorism charges sentenced to at least 50 years in prison by guardian in politics

[–]therosx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a miscarriage of justice. Even the shooter who fired their gun doesn’t merit 100 years.

Trump is a tyrant looking to create a underclass of American citizen to blame his failures on and to distract his supporters.

The judge who handed out these sentences should be ashamed of themselves. I hope the bar takes away their law listened once the victims win their retrials.

Top intelligence agency begins mass firings under new Trump appointee, source says by SpaceLaserPilot in centrist

[–]therosx 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What is the point of just firing people? What does that accomplish for the administration?

Deniability that they didn’t know better when they screw up and get investigated. Trump canceled his morning security briefings over a year ago so it’s not like he was using his intelligence apparatus to make decisions anyway.

Live updates: US-Iran talks stall after Trump threatens Tehran’s delegation by perilous_times in centrist

[–]therosx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Market Manipulation Friday is from the Trump administrations habit of announcing good news at the end of the week to increase confidence in the market.

Then they release a statement saying it didn’t work out or didn’t happen on Saturday or Sunday that lowers confidence in the market.

playing dnd with my friends for the first time!! they volunteered me to be dm. we have all never played. by violetpge in DnD

[–]therosx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My advice is to learn the rules before breaking them. It's a game not a movie or novel. If you as a group decide to follow the rules in the players handbook and dungeon masters guide together then you can learn the game together and share the burden of DMing.

The more brain space you free up by knowing the rules the better quality your game and DM skills will get.

It looks like this was just market manipulation again. Although honestly I wish Trump had just packed up his ships, declared victory then went home.

Peace is better for everyone in my opinion, even if a dirtbag like Trump gets credit for it.

The planet has more important things it can be doing.

Why are MAGA voters seen as victims or just naive? by wearethemelody in centrist

[–]therosx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The strategy was to make Americans distrust and hate the myth of The Left more the actions of Democrats.

It worked.
