Are those plastic bags full of mercury?! Besides each one weighing a ton, that’s a terrifying disaster just waiting to happen!

Stopped clock. Hell, even a backwards running clock is right ever so often.
They did acknowledge the problem in 2008, when Obama ran the first time and the support from the working class (and other non-1%) was good. Then he quickly turned into a status quo democrat and they haven’t tried it again since.
Royalty (even ornamental) in the 21st century is just an example of having backwards and ridiculously outmoded cultural constructs. I admit that I could have phrased that better.
European résumés include photographs and marital status, which would be an outrageous reach into one’s personal life in the states. It’s not surprising that they’re ok with the idea that bosses should be able to have relationships with their employees and still keep their jobs. I guess that makes the resumes make more sense.
What do you call 3 LASD officers who die in an explosion?
The neoliberal controlled opposition is disarmed, because you don’t need personal arms when you have cops and your goal is preserving the power of the state and the capitalist boot.
The actual opposition (who have been disenfranchised by your fellow Democrats), were never so naive and are armed just fine. Just disorganized and excluded from the political machinery.
A reminder that at our level of technological development poverty is a social construct. Whether it’s deliberate or emergent, we can change this at any time.
Ding ding ding. We have a winner!
It’s not the good of the people that they’re thinking of. The US people are just another market to be exploited. Imagine the profits that the producers can harvest
MAD is a nuclear deterrent scheme to discourage anyone from launching nukes. The Samson Option involves nuking much of the world as Israel’s dying breath, even if it’s attacked using conventional weapons.
It’s psychopathic to the extreme.
This was before my time, so it’s always interesting to read about Nixon and see that he was way to the left of the current Democrats and saw a lot of positive things happen under his terms. He’s remembered as a crook and a boogeyman, but by modern day standards, the Watergate scandal would barely even raise an eyebrow.
How times have changed.
