Just browsing thru images shows this to be quite untrue. Its just a subset of reddit content, also gamed by bad actors. Plenty of hateful and violent content, as well as a staggering amount of misleading graphics as well. Look for yourself, be your own judge.
Yet my meat comes from sustainable near-wild farms that enhance the environ, not a factory farm. Should I have to listen to some loud vegan breathlessly proclaim all omnivores to be vile and lacking in ethics? Everything is a damned grey area.
Just check bidens voting record in office. Very, very far from progressive. He has always run as the law and order guy, and helped push many of the laws enabling police misconduct today, such as mandatory minimums, 10x tougher crack sentancing, etc. I want to move forward too, but he is not the guy.
Being armed does not matter, unchecked power matters. I could care less if they carried ak47s as long as they used them more sparingly. Disarming the police might have more effect on how interactions happen, but is not the problem, nor a very workable solution where citizens have the right to be armed.
The police are bound by laws. Attacking them is not helpful. If the police are bad, the laws are bad, and/or not being enforced. The history of mandatory sentancing laws (funny enough brought forward by none other than Joe Biden) might as well be the soundtrack for police racism over the last 20 years.
The CNN arrest was not violent, not were they held long. The reporter later said everyone was nice, and they had orders to arrest anyone in the path of the crowd who did not immediately disperse. If there is an example of the police acting badly, or treating press differently, this is not it.
I would argue activating autopilot while distracted is not only counter to teslas instruction, but criminally negligent. Please either drive, or take an uber, for the rest of us.
I am not sure how a different system would have changed things. Look at russia, half the middle east, etc. Not exactly the common definition of capitolist. Producing energy is about the most productive thing a country can do for its people, no matter its politics of distribution. The fact is that petroleum is/was the most efficient way to do that. Science first, then you can drag out your personal politics.
When no-deal looks as appeling as the deals being offered, this was an eventuality. I think many knew this going in. I doubt, however, that this is purely due to foot-dragging by the current government, and more to do with some hard-won lack of trust on both sides of the negotiating table. Both the UK and the EU made some unfortunte moves, shady deals, and asinine assertions, in the brexit adventure that will likely poison the well for years to come. Until a compelling (military or financial) reason comes along, I expect the situation to mostly remain the same.
Except there are at least 3 posts here about finding the discarded fabric laying around. Most seems to have been repurposed, but the lack of having any use for it afterward seems a gross oversight. We are splitting hairs here, so I should acknowledge while it is not littering, it is still preponderously wasteful and short-sighted.
As a rural in the USA, I see it quite differently. Urban areas are hard left, and rural areas are a smattering of everything. I have never been attacked for my beliefs in rural areas, and yet I have in urban ones. There is a huge divide, but to assert yourself unquestionably on the right side paints how you view your position in the world. Stop demonizing what you don't understand, or you are very much the root of the problem.
It depends. Unless membership is optional, I would consider it a lesser value home. Which is ironic given its intended function is to (possibly) keep one asshole from ruining property values, in exchange for a different set of assholes (possibly) destroying value in another way.
Some things need a human touch. Interacting with other humans is one of those things. See any automated customer service bot ever to see how absolutely terrible an idea that would be.
If the suits are pressurized more than the environment, escaping gasses often cause moisture or frost to form at the point of escape due to differential cooling condenstion. Could that be what they were seeing?
Nothing but vegtables, with meat once a week is not anywhere close a balanced diet. Veggies are mostly carbohydrate, which does not help either. But as most will point out, whith that many people affected in the family it is likely a genetic predisposition.
I think Moore is a jackass more interested in profiting off of outrage than furthering the human condition, but seeing him treated this way is pretty disappointing.
Seeing the same happen to Errol Morris was even more heartwrenching.
Yet even more dissapointing is the depths that 'documentaries' have hit. I used to enjoy them as edu-tainment, but can't stomach the preachy psudeo-scientific bs that passes today. From Netflix to the 'science' and 'discovery' channels, even (previously good) natgeo are peddling everything from fruitatarian diets, ghost hunters, bigfoot, occult nazi ufos, and rekki. Its a sordid state, and I am not even sure where to look for even 'lightly' biased stuff anymore.
I agree, but there are many that object to anything the potus does by virtue of who he is, and what he stands for in thieir eyes. Its hard to argue in good faith with that camp. There are a few who think the status quo is fine. They are likely the same people making lots of money under the current arrangement and are having trouble seeing the forrest, but for the trees.
I hope this helps at least open new opprotunities for social media whose likes we have never seen before. Both better curation and more open-ness are potentially up for grabs. Surely this is only an opprotunity to anyone with a sharp mind.
About goddamn time. I am not on Trumps side on 99% of issues but this is absolutely needed. The platform-publishers have failed to police themselves, and have (too) publicly played favorites lately.
Please, if you disagree, reply with why. Besides ad-hominem attacking the person, and if this particular incident is a good example (it is not), explain why fb/twit/etc deserve dual protections?
