We’ve even had an “Evil must be opposed!” moment.

Gee, maybe you should have spent more time improving the lot of everyday people and less time playing footsie with billionaires?
A lot of neoliberal erstwhile-progressives are about to find out the consequences of selling out their principles for a seat at the rich kids’ table.
Most of Europe’s already found this out, Biden and Trudeau are looking at the same thing, and I expect Starmer will be out on his ass after four years of failing to help the poor and middle class, as he’s so busy right now assuring everyone that he’s not a socialist like Corbyn.
How much of this is decline at the expense of Windows 11, due to Steam lowering barriers to entry, fatigue with Windows’ hard selling, and/or extending the useful like of hardware that W11 abandoned.
So, money is speech, is pollution speech too?
Does it work the other way? Can I follow Threads users without being on threads.net myself?
But I’m reliably told that racism isn’t a thing any more.
Coincidentally, that’s what using it is like, too. :)
To be fair, that’s a British style of writing. It’s a loaded word in North American journalism, but neutral in the UK.
This would be accurate if they ever cared about neonatal or prenatal health… They don’t.
Infant mortality being sky-high is completely fine. Mothers with no supports, nutrition, or health care? Fine. A baby can die in utero as a result of neglect and they’d say it was God’s will, or rather that it’s God’s will that they not pay taxes for health care.
Ugh…
How did PCs beat out the Amiga, Mac and ST with nonsense like that?
I won’t say I didn’t have a bit of schadenfreude when Fort McMurray burned.
I agree, but to some degree, people own their government, and this government is, more than many, responsible for much of the causes of climate change.
I’d say the same thing if Florida sinks into the sea, or South Texas and Louisiana are swamped, or north Alberta catches fire.
Apropos of nothing, Saudi Arabia is the definition of a petro-state.
Chickens. Coming home. Roosting. Etc.
It’s hysterical to hear right-wing commentary about how New York Democrats are socialist Marxist communist hippies when the reality has much more goose-stepping to it.
There’s parking In Montreal?
I suppose that’s what potholes are for…
They don’t think of working class people as people.
They’re things, abstracted away from empathy.
There’s a solution for this: socialized medicine.
It works literally everywhere else in the world.
They are playing the same game they always have: use carrots like this to get voters to the polls, and hold off on those carrots until an election year.
The problem is that it doesn’t reliably work. Progressive voters just see three and half years of very little progress and six months of fearmongering and pandering, which causes as much or more apathy than it does engagement.
If you look at what the Right does, by comparison, it’s interesting. They throw red meat to their base on day one, and keep it up for the entire term. They know that they need to keep the base pumped and expecting results, which is a big reason why conservative voters turn out at much higher rates: they feel listened to.
Flip a few more of these and Fetterman can sit and fume.
Do they?
Because their actions imply otherwise.
