snooggums , in Alabama says law cannot block people with certain felony convictions from voting in 2024 election
@snooggums@midwest.social avatar

No citizen lose the right to vote, ever, for any reason other than no longer being a citizen.

Hildegarde ,

Election related crimes should result in disenfranchisement. People who gerrymander districts shoujd be barred from voting or holding public office.

xmunk ,

Nope, they, too, should be allowed to vote. We shouldn’t allow any path to disenfranchisement.

thefartographer ,

What about the dead? Call me controversial, but I’d like to disenfranchise the dead

xmunk ,

Okay, call me slightly ableist.

JohnDClay , in Harris proposes raising the corporate tax rate to 28%, rolling back a Trump law

What is this tax on? Is it profits only? Or something else?

shalafi ,

Important questions. Fiscal policy is wildly complex and what’s that saying about the road to hell and best intentions?

I’m here for that conversation. What does tax hell out of them mean? Sounds good to me, but the idea deserves some talk.

Etterra , in ‘Evangelicals For Harris’ Drops Brutal Ad Questioning If Trump is a ‘False Prophet’

I was raised religious and boy oh boy, let me tell ya, this guy ticks off so many checkboxes is not even a competition. Peak false prophet/antichrist criteria.

Infinite ,

The only thing more convincing would be if his name was Mark Ofdabeest.

charade_you_are , in ‘Evangelicals For Harris’ Drops Brutal Ad Questioning If Trump is a ‘False Prophet’

It’s a good thing I guess but a ‘prophet’? Is that what these people believe? He’s a dangerous, sleazy grifter. Always has been, always will be.

drbluefall ,

The point of a “false prophet” is that they claim to speak for/act in the name of God for their own (evil) ends. False prophets are the highest tier of grifter in a religious context.

charade_you_are ,

I know what you’re saying but I truly can’t truly understand their way of thinking. I guess it’s the brainwashing they get starting at like age 1.

GaMEChld ,

We are all the products of the universe that created us. To understand them you have to first understand yourself, why you believe what you believe, and then understand that they lived a life that furnished them with their beliefs. But that will only get you halfway, as you will begin to understand them but that does not extend both ways; they will still not understand you. That will take considerably more effort.

tiredofsametab , in ‘Evangelicals For Harris’ Drops Brutal Ad Questioning If Trump is a ‘False Prophet’

I have family that believe trump is necessary for Christianity to win and that I and my step-siblings are only safe because they are intervening for us. This is in central Ohio from evangelicals.

GaMEChld ,

Now ask them if Christianity winning means purposefully bringing upon the end times.

tiredofsametab ,

The thought previously crossed my mind, but I don't think that's what they're going for and don't want to put any more strain on that relationship (people are more likely to be un-radicalized when family don't just pretend they no longer exist and I'd rather not create more conflict without a clear purpose and push them further into extremism).

xmunk , in Georgia governor doubles down on Medicaid program with work requirement despite slow start

It’s fucking repulsive to force people who can’t work to be ineligible for healthcare and there’s a large segment of people who can’t qualify for Medicare coverage that are physically or mentally unable to work without support or at all.

carl_dungeon , in ‘Evangelicals For Harris’ Drops Brutal Ad Questioning If Trump is a ‘False Prophet’

He’s a convicted felon, rapist, and con man.

Zannsolo , in ‘Evangelicals For Harris’ Drops Brutal Ad Questioning If Trump is a ‘False Prophet’

I’m an atheist but if anybody got the bill for anti-christ it’s this guy.

TransplantedSconie ,

He is literally the Seven Deadly Sins mooshed into a fat suit.

some_guy , in George Santos pleads guilty to two counts in federal corruption case, faces years in prison

I dunno why, but I’ve just had a strong urge to refer to him as Greg from now on. It just feels right.

Way to go Greg. You did a great job fucking up your life.

Edit: apologies to people named Greg.

ravhall ,

I’ve never known a Greg I liked.

credo , in Harris proposes raising the corporate tax rate to 28%, rolling back a Trump law

Any way we can tax advertising at 100%?

Valmond ,

Added taxes can be more than 100%

TropicalDingdong , in Georgia approves election rule that could delay vote certification

I wonder how much of all this we can blame on Ginsburg.

admin ,

This isn’t going to the Supreme Court. You might be thinking of this vox.com/…/supreme-court-arizona-rnc-republicans-m…

TropicalDingdong ,

This isn’t going to the Supreme Court.

I dont know if I agree or disagree with that, but I don’t think they’d even be trying it if they didn’t think the supreme court wouldn’t rule in their favor.

admin ,

I misspoke. I meant this isn’t in front of the Supreme Court currently. It might be making its way up there though.

Chef_Boyardee , in Gay man says he was assaulted by Shake Shack employees after kissing his boyfriend at D.C. location

This is an action-packed comment section.

ulkesh , in Alabama says law cannot block people with certain felony convictions from voting in 2024 election
@ulkesh@lemmy.world avatar

To the people saying there should be no reason to lose the right to vote. I do not agree. Treason – this should absolutely bar their right to vote, if they are not sentenced to death. So be the absolutists all you’d like, but there is a line, and a fair due process and conviction of treason is it.
