I mean the UK, America, and France had their own fascist problems in the 30s, see Oswald Mosley and the 1939 nazi rally at Madison Square Garden, and Vichy France’s government didn’t fall out of a coconut tree (nor were nearly enough of them strung up after the war).
Sadly we won’t be able to rely on the USSR this time.
If it wasn’t for FDR we would have sided with the Nazis and never embargoed Japan for the invasion of China. Even then FDR supported the existence of the American apartheid policies.
And in Canada with Alberta looking to replace the hospital management with a corrupt Catholic theoligical institution that bans abortion, contraceptives, assisted end of life, care for LGBTQ community etc. thetyee.ca/…/Smith-Radical-Plan-Privatize-Hospita…
We’re midway through passing the blame torch. Soon they’ll drop the millennial part and it’ll just be “gen Z is killing an expensive or shitty industry how could they!”

Well pretty soon the “they” will be millennials. Boomers are retiring or dying off, and there aren’t enough GenX to fill all the spots. Older millennials are in their early 40s now.
If you own any land that’s all public records (in my area at least). Kinda annoying that you can just go to a towns website and see all of the tax bills with addresses and a map of exactly where that land is.
Damn near everything you do involving the government becomes public records of some sort.
A pretty poor excuse not to vote though. Kinda sov-city like saying don’t get a drivers license at 16 so that you never need to get a drivers.
I don’t, but there’s lots of reasons people do it, there might be additional costs associated with it but everything I’ve heard of it that the person in charge of the trust just pays the property tax like if they were a normal person instead of the agent of a vehicle.
One benefit to a trust it that transfers take place entirely within the framework of the trust, so you can transfer use rights and “ownership” within the trust without incurring the transfer fees and taxes associated with splitting up a plot in the “meatspace” of titles and deeds.
People didn’t like this take because I was talking about Israel and Palestine, but if you willingly engage in a war, you forfeit your right to your land. This is how it’s always worked.
Israel and Palestine is complex and so many hands have been Involved in the size and creation of the state of Israel. Growing the size of Israel through war is not a good idea in my opinion.
I generally agree. I support Israel’s right to exist but there’s no good reason for it to grow. I think it can grow through war though, but also believe it shouldn’t.
Well, if the Ottoman Empire did not side with the Central Powers in WWI, they wouldn’t have lost their land and it wouldn’t have been sliced up and eventually given to the Zionists. Although, the tension was already there and would have probably been bloody either way, just without allied support.
as far as how it always worked, it never even required willingly going to war, just loosing. id bet there are no people on earth that haven’t been conquered and displaced or assimilated at least a bit. many of them hundreds of times. these no such thing as indigenous/native people or land unless you work with a very short memory or have no history.
I’ve said it in a comment before but I can smoke all day and be 100% fine the next day. I can’t drink more than a few drinks without nearly dying the next morning.
Makes more sense to do weed, not alcohol, just to be able to function later or the following day.
Honestly pretty crazy to me that 45% of legal Gen Z hasn’t had alcohol at all. That’s the craziest data in there for me if true. I guess covid really cut parties out for those prime peer pressure age groups. And it’s a cyclic effect as there’s less drinkers to peer pressure new drinkers.
I enjoy a drink(not wine) but the price and health are real kickers. I want a low abv good tasting beer and that’s hard to find as craft is still chasing the high abv super IPAs. I only have a drink with my weekly dnd and that’s kinda it anyway though.
I’m gen x and have never drank. In my 20’s people couldn’t believe this. But as I got older and hung out with people I relate to I found more and more that I wasn’t alone on this. From my personal experience and friend circles, most people go through their party phase and then alcohol loses it’s appeal.
I’ll take this guy over the Moms for Liberty and MAGA school board people that have been keeping our area in the news the last year or so. At least this guy is somewhat entertaining…
If she wins and she does this, I will open my own business. I’ve been on the fence for months about it, this is enough to pull it off. I look forward to a future with her as our President.
They can think it violates the Brazilian constitution all they like, my understanding is that the supreme court already weighed in on the issue and that’s the only opinion that matters in most countries.
You’ve never heard of biased, politically motivated supreme court justices? That’s… hard to believe. You should Google “Roe v Wade” and then check back. How can two different versions of a supreme court rule completely differently on the same issue if the underlying constitution hasn’t changed?
Read the relevant parts of their constitution, then check the supreme courts decision, and let me know how you think it makes sense.
Point isn’t whether it’s right or not. The point is that once the supreme court rules, there’s no “higher” court to take it to. The lower courts can’t rule differently on something explicitly ruled on already, and they can’t “overrule” the supreme court since they are explicitly “under” them. So regardless of what Starlink says, they aren’t going to change that, at least not any time soon. And X will either be dead, irrelevant, or significantly modified by the time the court changes enough to get them to change their decision.
