Which is so fucking weird! Imo, jury duty is the most direct way you can affect politics. Your voice is loudest and you have the most influence.

I have never been placed on a jury and the last time I got a summons was back in college.

When suing a multibillion dollar corporation, that has more money than sense, it's going to be a war of attrition. RDJ likely has millions and would probably prevail in court but this assumes that SCOTUS, who currently being fucked in the ass by corporations, will rule in his favor.

Sure RDJ can afford it. But it will be bloody. Like Endgame.

There is a tiktok that I'm too lazy to go find but basically it boils down to Trump FANS vs. Biden Voters.

Trump fans are willing to break the law (read: not go to jail) because they believe they are above the law. The law is for punishing other people.

Biden/Harris voters are not fanatics, at least generally speaking.

Every time I come on this site, it's about "get rid of the Republicans!!!"

This is not a "both sides" thing. One side is actively trying to kill people.

If conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.

I don't know about you but I'm not okay with that and I am personally okay with defending my vote, by violence if absolutely necessary.

This is the reason. In our fucked up country, Trump, a rapist convicted felon, has a legitimate chance of winning the presidency.

Do you want a galactic war between Mars and Earth? Because that's how you get a war between Mars and Earth.

It's so fucking weird right? Because couchfucker Vance talks about how motherhood is the best thing.

But I guess if you're on the wrong side of color spectrum, motherhood is bad.

Open washing enables companies to capitalize on the positive perception of open source and open practices without actually committing to them. This can help improve their public image and appeal to consumers who value transparency and openness.

Saved you a click.

I think it's a result of trying to get support right now so you don't get stuck waiting for someone to up vote your question or having other questions push your thread further down.

I've been a victim of this myself and going to Discord seems to be better getting someone to actually help you, especially for niche questions.

I'm not saying I like it but I certainly get it.

Because, from them, the law exists as a means to punish people you don't like.

"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

Republicans would crucify him.

Keep in mind that is why the Jewish leaders wanted him killed: because he spoke the truth
