Hm. So it matters to you whether or not the cannibals that are about eat you hold their pinky out while they drink? I guess it matters in a posthumous way but you are still gonna get eaten. I guess if I have to choose who eats me, I would choose the one with a little class, but, I am still stuck on voting for someone who will eat me regardless of what else they will do.
Honestly, even SCOTUS isn't quite as captured as a lot of people on both sides think.
It is captured enough to turn the law on its head. That is enough.
I am one of the lucky ones. I am "white", I can trace my lineage here in America before it was America back to sunny and warm England. I am not gay or trans. I am not poor. My only drawback is that I am not stupidly wealthy. So why should I care about all of this bullshit?
I can tell you why I care: Because this has all happened before and EVERYONE suffers until it is corrected. Stay blind, I don't fucking care. This shit won't be over before I die, so feel free to extend the suffering as long as you would like even though you think you are trying to be reasonable and rational. The USA as you knew it is absolutely GONE. Enjoy trying to keep it together. It doesn't exist anymore.
what if an engineer managed to create
By all means, show us working data, pilot results, or even a peer-reviewed prototype.
Reading comprehension is not really your strong suit.
Or do you have some issue with collective action and personal responsibility?
Why do you think I was speaking about collective action and person responsibility? I took issue to your assertion that money and tech couldn't solve the issue. It could. It probably won't, but it could.
the entire (or at least most of) the federal judiciary would have to be corrupted.
Oh boy. Do I have some news for your about The Heritage Foundation and The Federalist Society.
This is straight up socialism.
What the FUCK?
Read the definition of Socialism and nod your head that it COULD fit what we are seeing... and then read the definition of Fascism and realize that you were dead wrong.
Isn't government ownership of corporations socialism?
Not quite, this more accurately describes it:
He does know what Fascism is and the government owning part of a business sounds exactly like the definition of Fascism to me. But who am I? I don't have any money, so nobody cares what I see.
I think this would work quite well.
Yeah, just like the Supreme Court should work quite well. Time has shown us otherwise. Your method does not involve any cleaning or resetting, so corruption will eventually build up around it. How? I can't predict a specific future, but I can predict trends. Corruption is everpresent, even within our own souls.
When shit hits the fan, they, many of them poor and uneducated, will be first to feel the pain
They have been feeling the pain for decades. What you really mean is that they will start dying at a much faster rate.
Kind of like how you have been protected by democrats from the horrors the Republican party is about to unleash for your entire life and taking it for granted.
LOL. The Democrats want the same thing as the Republicans, just for different purposes. Both parties want absolute power and ALL of the money. Both parties think they can spend your money better than you can, they merely differ on what exactly they want to do with the money. The Republicans want to satisfy their personal greed. The Democrats want to help others with whatever is left over after their corruption... which ends up being nothing much of the time.
So, a person's choice is to either vote to lose all of their money and power or die. Not much of a choice. The Democrats would have had SOME legitimacy if they had not intentionally fucked over Bernie, showing the Democrats are basically the same as the Republicans. Neither party will listen to the People. Look at the New York Mayoral race. The dude in the lead is a Democrat and both Republicans and Democrats are attacking him. To be fair, the Democrats are more on the side of not supporting the guy than the attacking side, but, that is how Democrats operate in general.
Please, someone explain how this makes sense.
If you can pay off someone who has power, then you get away with whatever you did. If you can not pay them, they destroy you so thoroughly that everyone will find a way to pay the powerful.
Is it rational now?
What makes you think logic will work in this discussion? The clouds deidentify frogs tree rainbow usually.
The amount of illogical insanity appears to be breaking everyone's mind while laws are broken in plain visibility to everyone... and yet somehow or another, people are denying that they saw something. Logic is not rational in a world of mental disabilities.
You can't fix a planetary crisis with money and some technology.
hmmm... what if an engineer managed to create a way to pull CO2 out of the air and break apart the carbon and oxygen, sell the oxygen to rocket launches and made carbon fiber thingies out of the carbon and sold those... all while using sunlight to do all the work?
Not saying this is likely, just pointing out that your proclamation may not be quite as solid as you think.
Shh! Shh! It's OK. The climate change denying retard isn't going to listen anyway.
Hm. Maybe they are a climate change denying genius? It all depends on your perspective. What I mean by that is that the person has something to lose by acknowledging climate change so it is smart to deny it so they don't lose what they want. They just don't want the same thing as you. They don't care if their children suffer, they are making money right now. Later is an afterthought.
With the incremental improvements in computers and phones slowing to a crawl, my impression is the opposite. In other words, I'm pretty sure people are holding on to devices longer before replacing them.
Ummm, Windows 10 was just retired a few days ago with Windows 11 forcing the discarding of millions of excellent computers. Are you sure you are living in the same reality as the rest of us?
