He’s right, but they don’t have to be! We can protect our children and fellow citizens with popular, common-sense gun reform and legislation supported by the majority of people across all political spectrums. We don’t have to bend over for the NRA (which has been proven to be funded by hostile foreign powers) and extremists. All it takes is courage and action…
Monopolies depend on the government to exist.
I won’t bother with the rest, but this is flat-out false. Unregulated capitalism is responsible for unethical practices such as buying out your competitors, price-fixing, waiting-out your competitors (because they can’t match your unrealistically low price), insider-trading, exploiting a captive audience, and only competing in “territories” (you know, like drug dealers).
I can’t speak globally, but all the worst monopolies engaged in at least one of these. The US is far from perfect, but they squashed several giant monopolies because of practices like this. Corporations without guardrails are unrestrained greed.
That kind of implies we elect someone other than Trump, dust our hands off and say “Whelp, we’re done!” Unfortunately Democracy and Freedom require dedication and diligence. I know it’s exhausting and disheartening at times, but it’s so, so important to keep voting (in down ballot elections), volunteering, and donating.
Fascism does not rest.
“Keep Biden in until after the election then scoot Harris in under the 25th amendment”
That’s the worst possible plan, IMO. Biden can lead, I would be fine with him being president for another 4 years. The issue is he can’t win against Donald Trump. He was behind in all swing states, and that was before the debate, multiple gaffes and speech mistakes, moments of confusion and freezing, etc…

Your comment seems reasonable until you actually question the details:
How would forgoing a capital gains tax benefit the working public? Any answer you give will basically be “trickle down” economics, which has been proven to not work. Giant corporations and obscenely wealthy individuals hoard capital like a greedy dragon, they certainly don’t inject it!
EDIT: Of course they couldn’t answer that one simple question…
Two will be charged with sexual assault with a weapon, sexual assault and forcible confinement when they appear in court. The other will be charged with sexual assault and assault.
I’m morbidly curious what actually happened, but maybe I don’t want to know. I hope the victims get the justice they deserve and go on to live happy, fulfilling lives…
Interesting. As I understand it, pure computing (not sensors recording external data) are incapable of generating truly random numbers. But I’m obviously not an expert either!
I’ve been using “Perfect Passwords” for years, which apparently generate nearly random passwords from server noise, but he admits it’s still not truly 100% random…
Yes, but it’s significant because the prompt was to choose a number. I realize computers can’t really be random, but if we needed to just select a popular number…we can already do that!

I would not want to play video games with the people in the image, if they can’t hold a controller with their fingers on the triggers/shoulder buttons…
