Dunno but I haven't seen him in much recently. Probably not related but kinda interesting...

[–] coyootje@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, definitely a kinda true statement on their end. Except they mean it in a positive way and it obviously isn't...

I'd say you see the same thing with bikes, especially in the big cities. They cycle everywhere and go through red lights all the time. However, a bike is a lot less dangerous than a car (unless it's an electric bike that can go very fast), which makes it slightly less of an issue in my eyes.

It's because for many people, driving a car comes with a certain entitlement. And why wouldn't it? Especially in the US, where drivers are fully accommodated to with infrastructure, crazy roads and all kinds of drive through stuff?

It's even noticeable here in the Netherlands. Lots of people I know that are very kind, mellow people turn into insane road ragers the moment they get into their car.

I mean, the fact that there is stuff for sale in the US with the label saying "scientists in California have proven this causes cancer" is proof enough that even a crazy nutter like RFK can be sometimes right.

I hope people protestors will be there to chant stuff at him about Epstein and him being a pedo. Do it like they did to that neo nazi in Germany, that was amazing and on live TV.

He didn't come in go fix things. You can argue he did the first time he was president (even though most of his decisions then also backfired and were shit) but this time around all he's doing is destroy things.

Merrick Garland is honestly the worst, in a way everything that's going on right now is (in)directly caused by him. He could have been quicker getting Trump jailed over the Jan 6 stuff, he could've done more with these files... He just did a shit job in general.

[–] coyootje@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Sure, and it probably makes sense in the context he said it in, but I still think it's worse than denying what they ask him. To me it always feels like that person has something to hide.

[–] coyootje@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

He's obviously guilty and I really hope people don't let him get away with it. He should be shamed for what he's done, even if it was "long ago" (which it clearly wasn't judging by his continued contacts with Epstein even up to when he was president).

It's crazy, he's pulling all the "break glass in case of emergency" files out at once. Let's hope it's not enough to distract people from what a gross pedo he really is.

I wish it was like that here in the Netherlands. Instead we get flights that stay more or less the same price due to heavy subsidies and constant bickering about the trains. They've already announced another 10% price hike on trains for the coming year, after already raising it by 5-10% every single year for the past few years. It's insane. Add to that the extra inconvenience of having to cross borders with mediocre connections and I can understand that people don't take the train.
