Why do you hate sex?
What Was the excuse? Purging satanic anti Trump commie moose-lamb science?
Criticism of Trump.
Climate scientists bad-mouth Trump, so they need go. Climate denialists praise Trump, so their pet idea must be protected.
That's all Trump cares for and operates on.
When are people going to realize that this American government actively gets off on harming and killing people?
They do realize this. They approve of it.
Conservatives generally operate from a circle-of-concern perspective. The people who matter are their immediate relatives, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. The topics that matter are those that directly affect them right now. Everything else is unimportant and ought to be stopped or, preferably, destroyed, so it doesn't take anything whatsoever from "me and mine", whether that's something I currently possess, or something I will or would like to possess.
And anyone who opposes this perspective on reality is an enemy, and a part of the stopped/destroyed -- personally and in everything they care for or about.
So, see, from all you wrote, the only aspect that's minimally relevant is the Dems stopped caring for blue-collar workers. That's accurate and factual.
The other topics you brought are right-wing media bogeymen designed to elicit strong emotions, with zero detrimental effect on 99% of the population even if they were pursued to total completion.
DOGE reported on many thousands of subscriptions to things that were being paid for by the taxpayers.
Given their track record, I think it'd be more accurate to say DOGE reported thousands of times on the same one subscription being paid for by the taxpayers, because it appeared on multiple databases, no one at DOGE normalized those because they have no idea how to do that, and as a result the cost informed in their report was falsely inflated by three orders of magnitude.
The Cass Review was prepared following the same careful method of scientific meta-analysis followed by RFK Jr. and his vaccine experts.
No "/s" because this is strictly factual, and even more worrying due to that.
Once Trump's tariffs kick in and the inflation pressure amplifies, Americans will be in the streets calling for his resignation.
Some will. His devouts will think something along these lines:
"Sure, prices are high, but that's because they are attacking the US, and killing babies, and mutilating children, and then grooming those mutilated children into going to their secret pizzeria underground dungeons where they're raped and then sacrificed to Beelzebub, all the while their invading hordes of international military cat-and-dog eating gangs roam the cities causing riots, because they hate 'Murica and must be stopped! And He's stopping them! So higher prices are a small price to pay for Saving Freedom and Democracy and the 'Murican Dream and Way of Life!!!1!11!!"
And so will adamantly oppose any call they may make for Trump to step down.
Android has had sideloading for decades, and none of that happens.
If that's the case, then the way (W)estern, (E)ducated, (I)ndustrialized, (R)ich, and (D)emocratic countries raise their real children into becoming merely older children has hit an all-time low. Or high, depending on how one looks at it.
15-years-old are children? What kind of nonsense is this?
I understand wanting to prevent actual children, that is, those up to 11-years-old, from watching unvetted content. And providing a transition period on a curve once someone leaves childhood at 12 years of age and becomes a pre-teen, then a teen at 14.
But calling those in the 12-to-15 bracket "children" is an utter and complete absurd!
Oops! I inverter the sign. It's a+b >> c+d, not the other way around.
Why would it be cheaper for the government to buy than the expected profit?
It might be worth it when a government factors in: a) the costs of treating obesity-related illnesses in public healthcare networks for countries with universal healthcare, which are most of them, and b) the reduced productivity caused by obesity, which leads to a non-insignificant reduction on GDP and in taxes collected, versus c) the cost of the buying the patent outright, plus d) the cost of manufacturing it in great enough quantity to, again in universal healthcare countries, distribute it for free to the population.
If a+b << c+d, it'd make "National Interests" levels of economic sense. And even more so if that was done by an international organization backed by several such governments.
