Well thank goodness for that! This was a disgraceful and unforced but of cruelty from the Democrats. Wish this country had more than one party.

This would…be good actually? The scary thing about guns isn’t revolutions, it’s random sad men poisoned with conservatism doing a mass shooting.

The choices at this point are a flawed one state uniting two bodies, or one state with a successful ethnic cleansing. Two state solution has been taken off the table by illegal settlements of the west bank and, soon, Gaza.

The old fascist tactic of accusing the other side of the things you’re guilty of.

Really telling on yourself here! Would be funny if you weren’t so sad.

It’s not that straightforward. Copyright is different in that infringement is only enforced by rightsholders through litigation. That means they hato find you, sue you, and make a convincing argument that your backup is harming their market viability.

On that last point, some personal backup is unlikely to be found to be infringing. It’s more problematic if it’s something shared or done in a significant scale.

The company which used forced Uyghur labor and other sweatshops?

IF there’s any contenders for “woke” “company”, it’ll be a workers coop. All other companies run on exploitation.

I don’t know, it’s really a lose lose either way. Biden is either too soft and the GOP calls it a win and does something worse, or he is too tough and he’s called a dictator. I’d rather he take decisive action and put the fear of God in them than let it escalate and get even more immigrants killed. Honestly after the shipping migrants to liberal states stunt he should have thrown the book and/or CIA at 'em.

Then they pretend to not see the predatory employers using and relying on undocumented labor to exploit. Honestly going after those profiting would be far more effective and humane, but clearly not the point for them.

Yes, but political engagement can’t revolve around voting.

It’s shit. You have to navigate a beurocracy and don’t even always have choices down the ballot. And when you do, you often have no idea who the candidates are beyond some half baked Facebook page. It’s also a huge burnout pit. Put months of stress into a binary outcome you can barely control. And even that is if you’re engaged in canvassing and etc, otherwise it’s just a chore.

Youth need to be mobilized in long term action projects. Something like Encode Justice for example, where they make civic engagement a part of their daily life, is far superior. It’s also harder, but that comes with doing something actually impactful.
