Ah, we can blame capitalism for that one.

I get it’s risky and money is needed to survive, and prison is bad, and all, but it seems a bit hypocritical for doctors to violate their modern day version of the Hippocratic Oath.
They rationalize it by saying that they can’t help anyone if they are sent to jail. It is partly true so I don’t think we should blame the doctors here.
Plus, Jesus didn’t even mention abortion once. He ordered his followers to feed the poor, but now they fight against feeding the poor and fight for causes Jesus never talked about.
I am beginning to think that true Christians are communists.
Everyone I know thinks our two party system is shit, but at the same time they think we are stuck with it and that it is a waste of time to worry about things we can’t change.
They’re wrong. We could change it if we all collectively demanded a better system. We are only powerless because we choose to believe we are powerless.
A good start, but Jesus, why haven’t they planted any trees?
Too true. I would give my right hand to live in Europe rather than the US.
I just read a story where a cop visited someone based on a noise complaint and ended up gunning the young Airman down while he was on a video call with his mother and gf… So from my perspective, cops are the danger.
Ugh, this conversation has reminded me of how much I hate that woman is pronounce wo-men and women is pronounced like wimmen.
Why can’t we just spell words as they are pronounced or pronounce words as they are spelled? It would make the language much easier to learn for future generations
Is it not dehumanizing to call veterans psychotic? Seems a bit like kicking someone while they’re down. The military broke them enough, the last things veterans need is to be mocked, dehumanized and treated like creeps.
When I worked in healthcare there were days where I clocked in at 7am and was forced to keep working until 11pm without any lunch or dinner break. Worker rights in the US are almost completely non-existent and the way some workers get treated is hellish
at some point people will have to start owning their consumption patterns.
Next time you are buying groceries, don’t buy anything that has any plastic in the packaging and then get back to us on how avoiding plastic is merely a matter of choice.
Nearly all clothing is full of plastic these days as well. Plastic from china is just as bad for the environment as plastic from any other country.
Critical thinking is essentially learning to ask good questions and also caring enough to follow the threads you find.
For example, if mental health is to blame for school shootings then what is causing the mental health crisis and are we ensuring that everyone has affordable access to mental healthcare? Okay, we have a list of factors that adversely impact mental health, what can we do to address each one? Etc.
Critical thinking isn’t hard, it just takes time, effort.
These days, profits growing slower than anticipated (but still growing) is framed as losing money.
Didn’t workers make that exact argument when their good manufacturing jobs were being sent to poorer nations? Seems hypocritical that the government allows globalism to hurt the working class as long as it benefits the rich, but suddenly globalism is bad when it hurts the profit margins of our billionaires.
I think devil horns would actually make him look less evil. It would distract from the deep void that hid behind his sunken black eyes and reptile smooth head, the void where his humanity and compassion for the safety of others had once been many decades ago.
After reading the title and seeing the black abyss in the eyes of the great-value Voldemort wannabe, I was scared for a moment that someone who was so openly hostile towards the safety of cyclists could win an election. It brings me great relief to know that is not the case.
I am somehow extremely disappointed that people who support this obviously corrupt and evil little man also have talents like art, and music, and probably others.
Oh man, everytime I see a GPrime85 comic I am sad because the guy is legitimately talented and it hard to believe that a guy who is so talented could also have such stupid and contradictory takes: https://x.com/GPrime85/media
Paying for early access == paying to be a stress tester.
Considering how the US’s CIA will infiltrate leftist groups to undermine and break those groups up, would that make the US an authoritarian state? And if someone passively enables authoritarianism through complacency then does that not make them authoritarians by default?
Read up on Operation Gladio if you want a peak at how deeply fascist / authoritarian the US truly is: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Gladio
But she only threatens to murder pedestrians so that makes it okay. She wouldn’t actually murder them (as long they scurry out of her way
