Won’t someone rid me of this troublesome candidate?

am I doing it right, JD? Or should I say that drumpf is going to eat your pet?

What’s the tattoo? I’m glad you were able to yeet that fucker out of ya 😅

Nobody but republicans are voting for genocide. Everyone with a conscious and brain are voting for the lesser of two evils because that’s the only choice we have. You’re inflammatory BS does nothing but make you seem more fringe, less thoughtful, and therefore easier to ignore.

This was posted to Lemmy yesterday, I watched it, and it’s relevance just keeps relevancing!

The Death of the Euphemism

Why does it need to be equal to population?

Because I was responding to the previous commenter that cited specifically those numbers.

I get what you’re saying, that other cultures are not as tolerant, and when said culture pops up in a previously tolerant area, it can cause tensions. To that I’d say that we have a system of government enforcing laws in a uniform manner across a region precisely because not everyone agrees uniformly. You can’t strip away the freedom to be wrong, you can only enforce rules that support equity, safety, and inclusion, and do so especially within local populations that seem to eschew it.

But also, not all migrants are intolerant. So assuming that they 1. are, and 2. will stay that way, is a xenophobic dog whistle.

It’s really a terrible place to live if you’re not rich and white.

No, you’re thinking of the Flaming Lips.

Rage Against the Machine is about exceedingly long carpentry nails.

I miss when conservatives tried to conserve things like national parks (i.e. Teddy Roosevelt) instead of using conservatism as a mask for racism.

It’s like, it seems appropriate for a two party system to have one party push for progress, while the other advises caution. But they dropped the euphemism and have been just blatantly racist/xenophobic/anti-other for far too long to pretend now that conservatism is anything else.

are European countries regularly taking in migrant populations equal to their countries population?

my bong has a bunch of crevices/nooks that get gunked up with resin n’ such. Put in some salt, a healthy splash of alcohol, and shake it up! you’ll be surprised how much that gets.

Sounds like an awful slippery slope 🙄

Well good thing we’re not taking in 330 million immigrants all at once then, so this will never be a problem.

That money comes from taxes that rise with increased economic activity that rise with the population.

It’s a racist lie that increased immigration leads to increased crime.

if you’re into that, just wait till you hear about alcohol and cigarettes! Anxiety, paranoia and panic attacks seem fine compared to Cirrhosis, COPD, Emphysema, Cancer, Stroke, Renal Failure, Kidney Failure, and Fatty Liver Disease. All of them painful, all of them deadly.

But god forbid people smoke some weed 🙄 They might in very rare occasions get a temporary increase in anxiety!

If they let you stay in the car, they’ve already decided you probably aren’t going to grab a gun from under the seat. So there’s no safety issue for them.

Dude, you aren’t making a lick of sense. Google “officer shot during traffic stop” and tell me again that keeping your window rolled down during a traffic stop is unreasonable.

crack the window as necessary, get out when ordered

two things he refused to do? What are you talking about, dude?

That straight up sounds like a terrible time, I’m not gonna lie

Whatever it takes to get people to take some shrooms and chill all the way the fuck out

If putin throws a dud nuclear weapon out, would that stop us from nuking them? Would we be like “oh bless your heart,” and stick to traditional weapons, or would we be like “you fucked around, now find out why America doesn’t have universal health care?”

amid increasing concerns that the lack of a ban on use is promoting drug abuse by young people.

This fucking backwards ass notion of weed as a “gateway drug” needs to die. Their reasoning for calling it that shows their idiocy, in that it’s called that because it’s cheap and harmless, so they think it will lead to people believing other drugs are similar. Imagine branding something as dangerous because it’s (Checks Notes) cheap and harmless.

Although from personal experience, I’d say that weed is a gateway drug of sorts, in that if you’re addicted to something far more dangerous (like alcohol), using weed can act like a “gateway” to sobriety.
