It’s sort of fucked up how relieving it is to know your parent in laws got their US citizenship years ago. It should not be like this

There’s a plenty of ideological reasons, but I think it is partly the environment being so stressful makes it harder for people to be considerate to new viewpoints or people.

Yeah, and my labor contributes to the capitalist orphan grinding machine. Question is not who is pure, but what people are doing with their privilege. Someone is using their new privilege to murder opponents, and she may have used her privilege to take away freedoms. Doesn’t make the two wrongs into a right.

Did we forget who was president when Epstein was murdered in a prison?

Sounds like the parents have decided they’re too old (or she is too old) to deal with this shit

This is why they fired the JAG lawyers at the Pentagon: there won’t be any legal expert opinions in the military to tell the soldiers the order is illegal.

My TikTok feed is rather radical, which is a non+option on all the other corporate platforms.

He was on the lighter side, from mainland China.

I’m white and the only time cops have been a dick to me was when I was with my Asian friend. It’s happened more than once. But the one time I was speeding by myself the police let me off on a warning and were rather nice about it. It’s anecdotal so take it with a grain of salt.

Seems to me there is a big difference between attacking someone’s identity and claiming the earth is flat or marijuana is bad. The fact the mods don’t seem to address this is concerning.

With tariffs and deporting labor, I’m not sure if many will be able to afford rebuilding.

Sorry but simply having our needs met is not enough. You are letting one class determine how everyone else works. People want self-determination and that should be extended to all people, not just billionaires.

The wealthy can’t hide from the Children of Kali.
