The vast majority of corporate profits in prison are extracted directly from inmates and their families. This compounds the economic disadvantage to the inmate’s community on top of idling a potential earner.
In the US, the poor are a resource for capital to extract and there’s no richer vein of poverty than what runs through the American legal system.
The previous owner of my home replaced the pressure regulator, but just installed it next to the old one. What happened was when certain taps were running together, a water-hammer developed between the pressure regulators and made an unbelievable roar and racket. It sounded like the house was trying to get up and run away.
You’ll notice a significant overlap between the people who cheer this verdict and the ‘all lives matter’ crowd.
You’re all liars because no one has mentioned the smell.
Use common sense! You think nerds changed their egg out on time?
Consider that the cost of energy is going to be the limiting factor on AI. When the VC dries up, who is going to pay the light bill?
I don’t understand the nuance of Syria, but even I can tell that this is a rock in Putin’s shoe and I’m here for it.
Give them places to live and teach them to grow food which will help pay for the whole thing.
The mentality that social programs are expected to justify their existence financially before their effectiveness can even be considered is one of the biggest reasons problems like homelessness are intractable.
Real media literacy is knowing that there is no correct, final, or definitive reading of a text. Any reading that can be backed up with the text is valid. If Maverick from"Top Gun" can have a queer reading, then “Judge Dread” can be viewed as unironic fascistic glorification. This Atlantic author’s argument boils down to dueling book reports.
“multiple valid interpretations” =/= “all interpretations are equal”
To be clear: I’m talking about a possibility, not a prediction.
We’ve nothing to go on but incomplete and likely incorrect public information. It would be foolish of me to entrench around speculation.
These are not the same person. They fit the description, and where near the scene. Police would want to talk to both regardless.
Nevermind the Tax stuff. I was soooooo looking forward to his gun charge going to court.
if you don’t know, he was charged with perjury because when you buy a gun you have to check a box that says you haven’t abused drugs in 90 days or some shit. With this SCOUTS, it would be hard to imagine this provision surviving a challenge. After all, if we accept that buying a gun is a right, then some government agency can’t deny you that with an arbitrary rule.
The gun nuts would be forced to choose between persecuting Trump’s enemies and gun rights.
Superhero movies are big budget police procedurals where the goal of the heroes is always to protect the status quo.
This guy is going to ruin the FBI and that’s a good thing. If you’re worried that he’ll use the institution to punish his political enemies, I’ll remind you that past Directors have assassinated leftests and Civil Rights Leaders. So that’s hardly a break with tradition.
I’m not going to bootlick just because Trump is the one fucking with these pigs.
It’s obtuse to treat the bear metaphor as a math problem. It’s doubly so to correct the work.
The first half of your comment is an acknowledgement that you don’t understand American culture and the second half is you casting declarative judgement upon it.
I don’t know which one of your minds to respond to.
This is shaping up to be the official first shit-show of Trump’s second term. Remember, if Gaetz is only prominent in Washington and under the graces of Trump because he blew up the House to oust McCarthy.
Would anyone be surprised if McCarthy was whipping votes against Gaetz?
We’re no worse than Trump makes for a lame bumper sticker.
Hunter’s prosecution may have been political, but that’s only because that’s what it takes to overcome his privilege. Hunter Biden is the phrase “do you know who my father is” made into a person. Everybody in prison is someones child. Fuck Hunter Biden and his defenders.
This subtle language choice is revealing. Start talking egalitarian political reform and all of a sudden “the Government” and “the People” are two different things: As if they are made up of, by, and for two different kinds of people.
