I'm halfway through season 2 and I love it, you are saying it gets better?? I've never watched any star trek movie or series at all, it seemed like a good starting place and I'm hooked.
To your last point, OP did state:
As a U.S. American, I know I wouldn’t trust my government or politicians to do anything but enrich themselves at my expense
Can you blame them? They did attend schools in Florida afterall.
Troubleshooting, researching, and having curiosity are all important in this field.
Me and my millenial siblings went to good schools, college, etc, but nothing at school seemed to encourage these things. In school it felt like a lot of tricks on how to be successful on multiple choice and short essay tests.
We were all typically ahead of our peers I think because at home we were taught art and handywork, how to research and solve problems on our own, how to think critically and be curious from a young age.
Among my cohort it seemed like the arts and creativity were seen as totally separate from technical work like programming. But some of the most successful people I've known in the computer science field have been very artistic as well. There are skills you learn outside of the typical 'hard science' curriculum that seem neglected.
Cops don't care though, they get paid a lot in many places and still go out of their way to do as little as possible. I'm sure plenty of people know a cop or two personally that are great people and do help others, but the institution as a whole attracts the worst types and encourages unnecessary violent responses, it's outdated and needs changing, the funding could be better served elsewhere.
It could be viewed more accurately as 'never underestimate the power that emotional abuse and manipulation can have on a vulnerable person'. You're not wrong exactly but I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. To me it makes it sound like you're saying she should have known better than to let herself get murdered.
I wrote a well cited essay in an English 101 class about how sanctions don't work and often have negative results, I got a great grade and it seemed clear based on the evidence, but these mofos just can't help but sanction. It must be useful in some way to the people doing it but what could be a personal benefit?
Shit is fucked everywhere, Idk what country you are in but young people have been struggling all over for a while. Sure, plenty of people have fucked up but most of us have been following the guidance given to us and doing everything we can with what we have.
Ignorant of what?? The things I see with my eyes and ears in real life? I'm seriously baffled, what the fuck is your deal, I even said you were correct
What the actual fuck are you talking about? There is no other city in this nation where people leave their cars open. Not a single one.
You’re either trolling or so disconnected from reality it’s terrifying.
This is one of the most intense responses to a comment I've ever had and I was just mentioning an observation of my life experience lol, I don't understand where you are coming from with this.
Nazi ideology is explicit violent and encourages murder of non-white people and others, there is no constitutional protection for literally threatening someone's life even if only through words.
If you menancingly say to someone "I'm going to kill you" you can be charged with a crime for that in the US. Supporting Naziism is little different than saying "I encourage the murder of Jews and other non-Aryans."
