Does it put people on a list that can be leaked? In principle it should not.

Yet it almost certainly will.


This is what decades of incremental power creep results in. To make matters worse, the liberals share a large part of the responsibility for this outcome. Liberal voters favor strong governments that are heavily involved in people’s lives. They’ve given no consideration to what that involvement means when the liberals eventually hand power back to conservatives, which happens on a circular basis in democracies. So the liberals hand more power to the government, which gets inherited by the conservatives, who use it against the people. Rinse and repeat.



Let’s ban cars too, and knives, and bleach, and umm, anything that can hurt someone if misused. Yeah!


Ah yes, ban guns right as governments and corporations are going full fascist again. What could ever go wrong? That would stop all crime. It’s not like someone could drive a truck into a crowd of people in New Orleans on NYE and kill 15 people in half a second. That’s just impossible.



I wonder if it would ever be implemented.

What do you mean? It’s already implemented. You’re looking at a picture of it.



At a minimum, wear clothes that fit you better than he does. All that money and power can’t give a man class, nor a sense of style.


As an American, and a veteran, can I just say how disappointed I am in our “champion”?


What about those fat wheel bikes? They’re more comfortable too. Not great for commuting, but fun to ride around.



It also sucks for people who don’t want to buy a rolling surveillance machine.


Except they’ll just completely leave the “under trump” part out and directly blame Biden.



That’s because he doesn’t understand how economies work. This is the guy that bankrupted a casino.


Do you have a time machine? Because high-powered criminals don’t go to jail anymore.


You’re absolutely correct in your conclusions. I’ve been trying to spread the same message and get my close friends to see this situation for what it is, and all I get for my efforts is called a libertarian (which I’m not), or be told I’m racist (I live in a blended family and friends group).

The leftist elitists in the USA love to scoff at the close-minded bigotry from the right, and pat themselves on the back about how open minded they are, while being completely closed off to anyone who tries to tell them how they’re alienating people, and causing strife with their identity politics.

Identity politics are poison. They seem purposefully engineered to sow division, instead of their stated goal of inclusion. I’ve tried to talk about this online a few times and gave up after being eviscerated by people parroting agenda points rather than actually engaging in a conversation.

The left, or the Democrats, or whatever you want to call them, have continually alienated huge portions of the population, portions required to win elections and actually change policies, with issues that affect miniscule portions of the population.

I want everyone to be treated equally. I want equality and inclusion. You don’t obtain that by telling 60% of the people in the country that their voices don’t matter, their opinions don’t matter, and their only job is to shut up and listen. Yes, it’s wise to listen more than you talk when someone who has experienced something you haven’t is sharing their experiences with you. But the overtly hostile fashion in which that message has been spread is offensive, and damaging, and alienating, and we saw the outcome of that last night.


This election is proof that people are just genuinely dumb and hopeless

Or that trump really does represent their ideals, and they’re just horrible people.



That was a singular, isolated event, probably heavily influenced by the movie Heat. We’ve never had another robbery like that since then.



I misread the community name. I clicked through from the main page. My mistake.


Which next election? The presidential election? Surely, you must be joking.




It’s getting less funny every day though. I’d say things are downright concerning in Florida nowadays.



They don’t once explain what MAID stands for. Medically Assisted Intentional Death?



It should never be used as a source of news. But I guess “less” is an improvement.





No no. Decriminalize all crimes, ban access to things for law-abiding citizens.


ALMOST EVERY DAY, I hear someone talk about how terrible things are right now. Whether it’s the crushing cost of housing

How short people’s memories are. Who was in charge of the USA when housing prices exploded? Who cut taxes for corporations and investors, and refused to raise interest rates despite out of control appreciation? Who is really responsible? Fucking wake up, people!


Those are better for up close and personal. It also requires less training and practice.
