I don't really believe in climate pessimism like that. I think some militarization and restriction will happen, but people *are* pretty good at focusing on a problem once it makes itself too obvious to ignore.
well jeez when you put it that way it sounds almost monstrous!
I thought this was solely a Vance pet peeve, why do other people in this administration care so much about the Pope??
"If the pope wants to see how shit gets done here at the fascism factory, he's welcome to come down any time" alright man
A creative writing professor of mine in college once assigned us a short story that basically had a Camp of the Saints level view on immigration but, since the author included a "because of climate change!" disclaimer to make it Progressive, it was questioned by no one in my 99% white class.
Really disturbing how many people think it's reasonable to assume immigrants just move around like an unthinking zombie horde, leaving destruction wherever they go.
Aside from the irony that nobody reposting this knows how it was made, it's also pretty wacky how directly this stuff tends towards romanticizing the Retvrn to pastoral life and paints cities and civilizations as a dystopian wasteland
Honestly I *can* see it but something about Driver's face has always turned me off to an extreme degree, can't explain it
Please let me write a modern day reboot of Dark Shadows (the 60s vampire soap opera) in the style of a prestige drama that's 50% Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 50% Downton Abbey.
The other horseshoe has property-is-theft and taxation-is-theft as its two ends.
Not gonna stop them from lifting these doritos from the 7-11 and chortling on their way out! Praxis.
No one who perpetuates this mentality is *lamenting* the notion that they've been forced into crime lol, they're deeply celebratory of the fact that they can commit crime now and get patted on the back for it by the same dumbasses they've convinced that only billionaires have moral culpability.
"The rich don't play by the rules, so why should I? I'm gonna shoplift."
"Actually if we vote for Democrats they have several ways to force the rich to play by the rules in the party platform."
"But I don't WANT to make the rich play by the rules. I WANT to shoplift."
What do these hand picked candidates who are running way ahead have in common? Oh right, they were all successfully elected statewide already.
I wonder why the DSCC wanted Mills in Maine! Probably [convoluted conspiracy theory about Israel or The Establishment!!]
It’s funny to me that a big justification used by Platner backers is “fuck Chuck Schumer and the DSCC who shouldn’t be hand picking candidates!!!” and meanwhile the fact that the DSCC is really good at recruiting strong candidates has almost single handily put the Senate in play for Dems
Superdick returns!
Correct
I've spent a lot of time in countries where graft and grifting are the norm and I assure you it is worth a truly immense cost to prevent that from taking hold in our society.
You do not want to live in that kind of society.
Wait back up, Lois as Luthor's gun moll? I could get into that elseworlds story
Arm thing!!
Oh my god they're gonna have him do the arm thing, my ass will be seated opening day, in Gunn we trust.
If the same HR employee offered them a 10% raise but was a woman, they'd be saying that whore kept me from getting a 15% raise.
Genuinely if the HR person announcing the 30% company-wide layoff was a man they wouldn't say shit. They'd shake his hand on the way out the door and say "understood sir, it must have been a hard decision to make 🫡"
The movie frankly writes itself
Block this fucker and also maybe report for incitement of violence. Genuinely obscene to be using Smokey the Bear to say actually commit arson lol who cares
There’s just no comparison. The two parties are systematically treated completely differently by the Fourth Estate & it is a massive problem for American democracy:
He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence
No worries lol. In the comics there are like 5 Clayfaces so you could theoretically kill off a couple and still be in business. Plus sequel potential for the movie!
Cry more, bitch
