yeah, and it created it because we were the ones voting lmao. We voted idiots into power, they stayed in power because we liked them, and they fucked up the government irreversibly.
It's not that complicated, we did this to ourselves at the end of the day.
these are all great ideas. But it doesn't make a functional government.
I'm not sure how anybody here is expecting to implement these if they hate liberal governance (the entire structure the US is based on) if you can't even begin to theorize a functional structure of governance including those things.
statistically, someone who goes outside, unless they go into a shitty part of town, where this kind of violence is more common, isn't going to be exposed to it.
It's like claiming that because we bombed japan in ww2, that the US population has radiation sickness.
The virctims in gang violence include innocent bystanders.
i mean it certainly can, but statistically, gang violence is going to be between gangs. Whether or that happens to be among specific racial, or ethnic groups is a different story entirely.
Of course there is also the question of gang violence hitting non violent members of the local community which may or may not be involved in that gang specifically, but that's a different problem.
We all know exactly what you’re really saying here and you’ll deny and make excuses about it.
yeah, and it's that specific communities, which tend to be correlative with racial/ethnic groups (you wouldn't disagree with me on this one, judging by your comment acknowledging this fact) tend to have issues with discriminate, or indiscriminate violence between members of their community, for various reasons.
This is usually a phenomenon restricted to certain geographic areas though, it rarely makes it way outside of these areas, to places where "mass violence" is most commonly reported on. Because it's not common.
quick edit: all i'm going to say, is that im not reading into the racial/ethnic problem here, you are. I'm just pointing out that gang violence tends to be isolated, concentrated, and easy to avoid.
i mean obviously, but unless you aren't teaching kids how to read/write in school, the amount of complete ignorance you would need to expend in your adult life to backslide so far on something so ingrained into your brain structure is genuinely impressive.
sentences in foreign languages are complete gibberish to me, unless i partly know how the grammar structure and language works, but that's also sort of automatic at that point, if i wanted to actually comprehend it, yeah i would have to put work into it, but that's literally me translating the sentence at that point lol.
they just didn't shoot him enough
dear big tech companies, please continue doing it, i want more people to use linux.
being aloof or absent minded isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's just a different type of engagement with the world, would it be nice if we didn't forget shit the second object permanence stops applying? Yeah, can we work around it, also yeah.
it's weird for me, i have ADHD traits, and also explicitly non ADHD traits, i think it's probably comorbidity with something else rather than explicitly ADHD. But that's neurology for you, sometimes it's clear, sometimes it's not, sometimes it makes no fucking sense.
I can stare at a wall just fine, but depending on what i'm doing, i need a certain minimum amount of stimulation, and just doing things feels so good.
oh its to do with dopamine, well that explains why i never got addicted to porn lmao...
For anybody wondering, my brain neurology is fucked inexplicably for some reason, i can't process emotion correctly, and i generally don't experience them either.
wow look another facetious argument.
I'm not pro "oligarchy" i'm pro liberal governance, oligarchy is by definition, not liberal. It gives excised power to people with money, that is by definition not liberal.
I'm pro capitalism because i think capitalism as a decentralized method of controlling the markets and businesses (i also think that regulation is important, because i don't have brain damage like libertarians seem to, but for some reason anytime someone on the left hears that someone is a capitalist, they assume they must be anti-regulation also), is the best way to go about it. State controlled markets simply cannot work, unless someone proposes a white paper disproving me, i will maintain that point. But if you can deterministically create an economy, that supports the needs of everyone in that economy, feel free to disprove me. The problem is that you can't because it's such an incredibly complex problem.
pro market economy isn't really a bad thing? I like people being able to buy and sell things, it's good. It's problematic sometimes, and rough other times, but that's just how it is. The market will generally bring itself to a normalized position over time.
i am literally against elon musk being in the government, people in the government having and owning investments, i think it's corruption plain and simple, i'm against corruption because it obviously leads to a negative outcome for the people the system is supposed to work for, again, liberalism does not like that.
it certainly won't be the left doesn't even have a plan of what to do when they get into power, the liberals don't really either, but we at least know what we want governance to look like, and that's a great start.
The left hates the current form of US government, and the things they want that they can clearly spell out, are not forms of governance, merely policy, so i'm not sure how they plan to get from step 2, to step 5 without falling in a hole somewhere.
