Context for the title, in case you’re wondering: https://archive.is/UL7jK
Country that has never once given a shit about fire codes suddenly discovers an excuse to arbitrarily emiserate dozens of people.
This is a lot like how our government is all concerned about National Security™ when it comes to pretty much anything else, but a bipartisan bill, supported by both of the last 2 presidents, and upheld unanimously by our current dysfunctional Supreme Court, with National Security™ as the excuse, and we still have Tiktok.
Laws are only there so the ruling class can keep us in line and them in power, and they will never be enforced homogenously.
Exactly what do you thinks fines do! If you’re rich, fines don’t matter… if you’re poor, go to jail for not being able to pay a fine.
Amazing how hard Dems worked to turn TikTok into another far right media platform.
I’d love to talk shit about the current administration too, but I’ve been in buildings where fire inspectors would cut off the power cords of any space heaters they found because they violated code.
I’ve never seen a fire inspector in any building I’ve worked in. Twenty five years on the job and it’s never happened.
Reminds me of that story a couple of days ago about the homeless guy that got ran over by a bulldozer when they cleared out his tent to tidy up the city for MLK day. Nothing says you admire MLK like killing some poors, right?
Par for the course for Atlanta though, isn’t it? The only thing worse than driving through that city is living there.
Kinda surprised Americans don’t worship Constantine.
Isn’t that the name of the Keanu Reeves movie about the guy who killed himself and now he’s damned for all time and works for the Church, and the Archangel Gabriel was there, but he was played by a woman who kinda looks like the “perfect” chick from Fifth Element?
What would Jesus do
Jesus turns water into wine. The human body is 70% water. Earth is like 60% water. Jesus was an alcoholic.
Does that mean Jesus could cause people to become intoxicated? Assuming he can control how much of the water gets turned into wine so he doesn’t just immediately kill the person he could pull off some fun pranks.
I mean…thats how I took it when I went to catholic school.
Also in catholic school, they never did answer the question of why we drank jesus’s blood, and ate his body. Why is that ok? And how did we STILL have so much left to go around so many centuries after his death?
These answers went unanswered to me in 2nd grade. I did get to hang out in the principals office though.
