Please look up Obama’s drone strikes.

On the 1701-D they baldly go.

The more successful you are the less you’re exploited.

the harder you’re work means you are rewarded if you choose the right careers

What did you mean by this? Do you think there are jobs that need to be done that do not deserve to be paid a living wage because the person doing it didn’t work hard?

You know what I’m asking and you’re being tedious on purpose. Stop that, talk to me like an adult speaks to another adult.

I’m talking about the Christ who died and was reborn to fulfill the prophesy, not a rabbi from Nazareth named Jesus. I imagine there was more than one man named Jesus, more than one rabbi, more than one temple smashing rabble rouser. None of them performed miracles, none of them were reborn, that’s fiction. Do you not understand the difference?

Why not answer the question?

You seem to think there are jobs that need to be done where the workers deserve to be exploited.

No state has received full funding for their snap/ebt as of this morning. Some funds are being released by the federal government to states but not fully, not uniformly, and with serious delay. I can’t find any credible evidence that anyone has definitely received their full November benefits as scheduled. In fact, the USDA has told states they can’t fund the cards and then be reimbursed by the federal government under current rules and the USDA has stated, as of this morning, that they will not fully fund benefits due to the shutdown.

I don’t believe you are telling the truth.

Well, I hate to break it to you…

Use expressive hand gestures. 🤌

I enjoy the undercard

New Balance is famous among people with wide feet and other orthopedic issues.

People in those situations need to know they aren’t forgotten by their friends as much as they need time and space to sort themselves out. It’s hard to say what’s appropriate. Trust your own judgment m

What do you suggest they do?

Eta: Always be super careful when people sitting on the shitter tell you that you should go out into the world and commit real life violence. Nobody who does these behaviors is out here on the internet flagging it for the world to see. They could be lazy internet-dwellers, they could be edgy teens, they could be feds, but don’t let them influence you. And if you’re going to do what they suggest, for God’s sake don’t talk about it.

Except me.

And you.

POV

Well, keep being anguished and angry then, I guess.

It’s 100% true. The safety of your local streets, housing costs, education, availability of food and clean water, even parking enforcement, all of these are decided by your city, county, township, or state. The executive branch of the federal government has almost no control over people’s daily lives.

National guard: Little Rock Central High School and the Kent State Massacre were two notable cases where states deployed the national guard to terrorize civilians. In the late 60s Delaware deployed the national guard to Wilmington for nine months. I strongly encourage you to learn the history of what guardsmen have done in your state.

Now, please talk to me like an adult speaks to another adult or don’t reply.

We’ve gone from “sex sells” to “rage sells” and it’s reflected in all media. I’ve been on the internet since 1994 and I was on BBSs before that. In the 80s we were always taught to be cautious about the motivation behind public communication, whether that’s advertising, news, posters on telephone poles, or people yelling on street corners. Nowadays people walk around in a constant state of despair and furious rage over “seeing how awful things actually are”. The conflict in Israel has been going on since 632, for example.

If there’s an active conspiracy out there, it’s a handful of super wealthy folks in media are producing content that causes you to hyperfocus on Agent Orange and his band of fascist wannabes because that’s the politics you have the least control over and has the least control over you. They want people’s minds flooded with hand-wringing anguish because it stops them from focusing on their own family and community and making things better for people in their orbit, which would cause them to potentially lose a little bit of power. If you want to buck the system, start with your own city council, I promise that your local zoning board has plenty for you to be angry with.
