Essentially it allows California to gerrymander by removing the independent redistricting body. The stated reason is to nullify Texas’ own partisan redistricting. I believe that there is a clause to that effect. Sort of like if you do this, we’ll reciprocate.

Maybe they fear coming out against child killing will make them antisemitic.

Maybe. But if that’s all she wanted to do, she could just concentrate on that. It sounds like she went above board to fit in.

To these people any society with trans people in it is a destroyed society since their society is trans exclusionary.

Yeah, but it turns out that ignorant, bigoted people are easier to control. So whatcha gunna do.l?

It depends on how much contempt they have for electorate. And their propensity to learn anything.

Despite all his bloviating about militarizing Washington DC being anti crime. He repeatedly shows himself up to be quite the opposite. Rhetoric is cheap actions are where the rubber meets road.

I don’t mean to invoke phrenology but the little girl on the right isn’t doing the right any favours.

Even if the US is belatedly on the right path, and “if” is doing some pretty big lifting hear. Without some honest and deep introspection and recognition that they fucked up, these latecomers will fall for the same old shit again and again. Just can’t trust 'em, bro.

And the politicians that are hoping to sell out.

If you are in the UK and thumbing up this post, is that considered a terrorist action. Be careful out there…

Is it really a human right if it’s not exercised? Are any rights, for that matter. If a right is negotiated, does that mean that it more an option?

Yeah, without the grid scale energy storage, this is little more than green washing. I think we should utilise the UK portfolio of wind turbines as close as 100% as possible before building any more.

While I think your comment is perfectly valid and I do agree with it. I also think maybe you’re looking too deeply into what is essentially a pity bon mot.

It’s OK, he doesn’t need her endorsement anyway, just the electorate’s. At this stage I think an establishment democrat endorsement will do more harm to Mamdani’s campaign than this shun will do.

Bad? From what perspective? I’ve been using it no problem. Sure, it can get delusional (what LLM doesn’t?). But it’s useful to get the general gist of something.

Is that your policy? Sorry bub, even abstaining is a political stance.

Sorry, by “it” I meant the cartoon. I don’t see much fascism on display in the image. The whole obey thing and Unitary executive theory where Trump controls everything is by definition authoritarian. With flecks of totalitarianism when it comes to thr handling of immigrants. Non of this prevents his administration also being fascist.

It’s not really fascism, more authoritarianism/totalitarianism.

What a petty diva Musk is. FFS, every jab Musk tries to land on Trump circles 'round to him. As he, himself stated he got Trump elected despite credible accusations that Trump palled around with and knew about Epstein’s PDFilia.
