    The ‘War on Woke’ makes the ‘War on Drugs’ sound marginally less insane. That’s kind of an accomplishment.

    The only thing those people are signalling, in my opinion, is that it doesn't take much to bait people into engaging with reddit to give them traffic, can't wait for an article about how metrics are going up so investors have nothing to worry about.

    Even his follow GOP want this Russian symp gone.

    Idaho opts out of nearly $15 million that would feed children this summer. Why? ( www.idahostatesman.com )

    @xuxebiko Their GOP members likely weren't able to find a way to embezzle it easily enough.

    That same provocateur will probably then say that someone’s father also smelt of elderberries!

    My vote is for worldwide politics and have a magazine for "uspolitics". But not sure if that is possible.

    The PGA was initially against the idea of even acknowledging LIV exists, and their tune changed overnight and now they're merging with LIV.

    Trump's getting a lot of money, and so are a lot of other members of the PGA...I'm confident.

    Our owner class here would, with their own two hands, slowly feed children into a wood chipper feet-first if it meant making a single penny. Most of the country can't pay attention, they're scrambling 24/7 to merely survive each day. The few who find a ledge to cling onto turn around and see the billionaires and the chippers, and instead of being disgusted, most start cheering it on because they've been lied to their whole lives. They've been told there is only enough ledge for them alone, and if more people "make it", they'll fall back down and be ripped apart. So they cheer and guide the travesties to secure their pittance, without ever looking up to see how much empty space there is.

    Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced the passing of a law that could render driver’s licenses and other forms of identification from several states invalid, including Vermont. ( www.mychamplainvalley.com )

    As of July 1, in addition to Vermont, four other states’ IDs will face extra scrutiny from police, as they may provide forms of identification to applicants who do not give proof of citizenship or legal status:...

    It's long been a cornerstone of my political daydreams that federal charges should be filed, as a matter of course, against any lawmakers who vote for legislation later ruled unConstitutional.

    My first question is always going to be, what is the moderation policy for Nazi's/white supremacists/fascists?

    Are you adopting a zero tolerance policy for that sort of rabble rousing trash, the iamragesparkle method, or are you going to say your hands are tied unless they blatantly violate the community guidelines?

    I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

    And the dude next to me says, "hey i'm not doing anything, i'm a paying customer." and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, "out. now." and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed

    Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, "you didn't see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them."

    And i was like, ohok and he continues.

    "you have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and it's always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you don't want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.

    And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And it's too late because they're entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.

    And i was like, 'oh damn.' and he said "yeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments because their end goal is to be terrible, awful people."

    And then he went back to ignoring me. But I haven't forgotten that at all.

    Yes. With Ron the fascist DeSantis deliberately alienating Trump supporters I think it’s safe to say that his arm of the party has shifted from a leopards eating faces party to a jaguars eating leopards and faces party.
