You think there is democracy in the US?
Our votes don’t even matter because politicians purposefully draw the districts to favor the outcome they want (gerrymandering) and it’s completely legal because the people in charge of making the laws are the same people that are in control and want to stay in control.
The US is soft despotism.
Giant corporations literally buy the laws they want at the expense of the people, because politicians like money and are happy to sign away bills for a large bribe gift of a million dollars.
The people aren’t in control and haven’t been anywhere close to in control for nearly a century.
What was illegal for President Warren G Harding in the 1920’s (giving all his under qualified buddies cabinet positions, so they could all make huge deals with government contracts) is now just the norm and completely legal.
Nah, it would have been way better (especially for literally everyone else) if they didn’t play at all.
Instead all the greediest people are realizing they can do this and they get all the things they want (so does Trump, along with more power) and it’s only at the expense of the entire American population (and the rest of the world too).
Fuck Cook.
It isn’t clever. It’s literally greed. It’s not even that other people haven’t thought to do this, it’s that you have to be a total piece of shit to do this.
Eventually someone is going to get the idea that hospitals should start installing chips and screens into the skin of newborns and it either displays ads or it only cost $150k to have it removed.
Thanks for having your baby at our hospital. The ads help pay for our CEO’s 4th mansion.
It doesn’t affect me.
That being said “policing” is a hyperbole.
Obviously no one is forcing people to swear, they are just giving them shit when they censor themselves.
Those people can still choose to censor themselves even when someone tells them it’s ok to swear.
It’s no more policing than OP ‘policing’ people to not ‘police’ him.
People have opinions. You can’t request others to not have their opinions if you’re going to share yours.
The article states that he was tracking the animal with the intent to kill it and then says it suddenly charged him, as if it was so super random and out of the blue.
Then you realize that you’ve been only paying attention to yourself repeating this in your head and have been mindlessly nodding and saying “yeah” for the last 3 minutes to the other person and have no idea what they are talking about now.
Alright, I’ve looked through the overwhelming amount of responses telling me to end things with him and I’m so grateful for all the support, but I’ve decided that I’m going to stay with him and we’re going to get pregnant asap 😜.
I’ve realized that I just can’t live without him (even if that means it comes with the occasional black eye).
I’ll always forgive him. He is my brother after all.
To be fair, most of the posts that people are commenting to break up on are like “Hey, so my significant other stabbed me in the stomach last week and as I was sitting in the hospital, I realized that it just made me feel disrespected, ya know?
This of course all happened after he told my parents he owns me and they can’t see me ever again and he threw my cat out of a 4 story window.
What should I do guys?”
“You don’t need to mine,
you don’t need to tunnel for
or root out anything.
Your vast soul,
that seabed on which
the ocean of you rests,
holds every part of you,
holds you like coral to a reef.”
When the goal of every CEO in late stage capitalism is to beat last quarters profits by a large percentage, pocket a giant bonus to themselves, leave the company for another company and repeat.
