Perverse Incentives. The US has the largest incarcerated population in the world almost directly because of this carve-out. Mandatory minimums, the three-strike law, overpolicing, etc. find some of their reason for existing because it allows for more legal slaves.

Godfreed?

It’s okay for them to be wrong.

Wait! You’re telling me that is east and west flip in the southern hemisphere? Shit, is that why the moon looked so weird in Peru? /s

“Left geographically”. Damn, such a mouthful. If only there were a word for that… /s

… what?

It’s a disparaging term towards accountants, turned to be one for capitalism writ al

Liberalism is not the Liberal party. It’s the marriage of capitalism and democracy that most countries have today.

Oh fuck. I should do that. That’d be hilarious

Nah, let’s use this information to squeeze even more money out of people. Gotta be the first person to be responsible for the majority of human suffering capital. /s

Dense living isn’t the issue. It’s single family homes turning everything into lawn

That’s it.

… if your mouth is healthy, neither of these things hurt or bleed. The “shiv” is used to measure the pull away happening between your gums and teeth. If you brush/floss regularly, that gap will be small and not inflamed so it won’t hurt or bleed. Likewise with flossing, your mouth is bleeding because it’s fighting off an active infection in the gum tissue. If you flossed enough, there wouldn’t be an infection there to fight and no bleeding would occur.

I’m Time’s person of the year of 2006. Do you think that gives me a pass or something? /s

he did it so they would buy cars to kneecap any union effort.

Don’t get me wrong, he did the right thing, but it was to stop a union being created rather than some 4D chess move. He did use your logic as the excuse, though.

You’re requiring the entire American populace to have the same level of being informed as yourself in order for this plan to work. In the real world, lots of people are incredibly ignorant of the actual political situation in the US. The democrats need to adjust their messaging to get those who aren’t politically engaged but vote. That means speaking on the material reality for the average person and discussing how to solve those issues. That means EMBRACING MORE PROGRESSIVE POLICIES.

Yeah, if you know a leftist who stayed home because Harris wasn’t left enough, shame the fuck out of them. But that isn’t the same as saying Harris lost because she didn’t embrace the left. Most Americans don’t know they’re left-leaning because anything “socialist” must be evil.

If that’s their takeaway, then we’re doomed. They did nothing but court Republicans with their “We can be tough on migrants too” shit. It always blows up in their faces. Biden ran a moderately progressive campaign and blew Trump out of the water. Maybe… just maybe the supposed left party should stop courting the right. Most Americans agree with progressive policies (once you couch them to not sound too “socialist”)
