American Politics: Fiscal Cliffhanger

[San Lumen]

Okay but, the parallels between how the GOP is treating the Trans community today and how victims of genocide were treated in the years leading up to the atrocities should not be taken lightly either. And the concerns about the safety of the community are valid. It's a rather mute point to argue about semantics and definitions when the physical actions are the same.

Yep. The road to fascism is built with hate and authoritarianism.

I recommend anyone who still doesn't understand the Nazism/Nazi-esque bigotry behind United States transcide to read the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's introduction to the Holocaust and the persecution that came with it.

Ive been to that museum. Its an experience but its nothing compared to the one in Jerusalem Yad Vashem.

Its an amazing state too. so beautiful. It currently has the longest streak of voting for President for a single party. It has not voted for a Republican since 1972 and no Republican has won statewide office since 2006.

In what way are they authoritarian?

Presumably, because they force him to wear his seatbelt and illegalize drunk driving I guess. I dunno. Minnesota's not done anything wrong as far as I know.

Makes it perfect for Norwegians to acclimate to the US.

In other news, the Supreme Court protected access to the abortion pill while it works its way through appeals courts. Alito wrote the dissent that was basically "Eh, how bad could it be, the next case is so soon..."

Using CNN because i know everyone can access it, choose your own flavor if it's not to your liking.

Why is not being allowed to not inebriated drive so bad?

Also, I like a government that helps people. If that's being a nanny, I don't care.

I don't trust them to actually protect the pill when they get their turn. But for the time being...

Wow, the Ron DeSantis campaign is dead.

[Urkennalaid]

Wow, the Ron DeSantis campaign is dead.

Ron DeSantis never stood a chance. I've said this to other people before, but if he goes into the Primaries, all it takes is for Trump to call him a pedo and bring up him drinking with underage high schoolers he taught for his campaign to be OVER. His best bet is waiting until 2028, and even then, he's so uncharismatic. If there is one thing Trump knew how to do, it was to rile up his rabid fanbase.

In general, politicians need to also realize that since times are evolving, they have to use social media and the younger audience as part of their propaganda. I mean, there's a reason Bernie was so popular and still is

Trying to predict the 2028 presidential election now is like trying to predict the 2016 presidential election in 2007. Simply put, you can't. And honestly he's not going to win if he ran in 2028.

His feud with Disney isn’t making him look good either and neither is a bill saying trans kids can be separated from their families.

[The Black Forrest]

Wow, the Ron DeSantis campaign is dead.

He’s not dead yet.
