Novel way to teach children that the constitution ain’t shit.

All the old memes are new again.

Does John Brown’s Kansas territory get to be in the Midwest club?

Oh yeah. That makes sense. I’m with you.

I’m a bit out of my depth here, I don’t know history enough and don’t retain knowledge well. I feel like monopolarity hasn’t been a great thing for anyone who isn’t part of the NATO aligned countries. The US has intentionally bombed and blockaded countries to the point of infrastructure collapse and kept them in this state sometimes for decades. We’ve supported and instigated coups that have been followed up with death squads murdering hundreds of thousands. On the other hand world wars have a huge death toll and a higher likelihood of life ending nuclear war. I feel like any perceived stability that comes with monopolarity is a mirage that only exists for a fraction of the population, and multipolarity while potentially deadly also represents a world where less powerful people and nations may find new options for support. Like many countries turning to the Chinese Yuan for global trade. Yet nuclear war and world war with their massive potential death toll seems real bad. Someone better at history and geopolitics help me determine what’s worse.

If there are ever consequences the US will leverage the consequences into justification for their next imperial project. They literally cannot lose in this particular dynamic. Only multipolarity or the ceiling of profit they can extract via financialization will stall this empire. Luckily both are beginning to happen. Also I’m dumb, there’s probably other stuff too.

I think I need arch support. Thanks for the recommendations!

I’m on my feet a lot for work but I’m not moving huge pallets of product or working in an active construction site; I’m mainly meeting end users for in person tech support. What kind of foot rescuing shoes exist for when work boots aren’t appropriate?

The advice I have seen is stick to "local" instead of "all" so you don't see deranged liberal threads, though you'll still see the lost liberal wandering aghast into a normal Hexbear thread. And sort by "hot" instead of "active" but I don't really know why that is better?

Tell all the Oppenheimer nerds that Jean Tatlock (probably) didn’t kill herself and then force them to read the Church Committee.

“New look. Same crunch”

That’s what I want to hear from my friends when I show off my new summer look.

Just let a CNN anchor embed with the troops in any military action and see how fash CNN is. Police and military will happily produce cheap and riveting content for any news source as long as they accept the narrative angle with it. Look at how media has covered every war since Vietnam.
