  I think the issue is the US was founded by the wealthy for the wealthy. The solution is more than just writing your representatives, demonstrating, and getting involved with local politics. All these things can help the situation, but they won’t solve the problem.

  We really need a new constitution that protects our rights. We need to be able to say everyone is guaranteed access to housing, medical care, education, work, and privacy. We need to state that governments and corporations cannot manipulate people anymore. They are using the best of psychology and sociology science against us, this is unacceptable.

  We have to ensure resources are fairly distributed, that wealth is spread out, and that our political institutions are designed to resist corruption. We have to look past popular vote for representation along with all the other systems we use that trap us in this never ending cycle of pitting people against each other for political gain. We need to move beyond having the government be an abusive entity representing monies interests.

  Until we get these things we will never be able to move on. We will forever be trapped in a system that only values how much it can extract from us.

  Typical American response. Yeehaw you gonna kill some people er what!?

  Attacking each other is not going to solve this problem because the wealthy have been pitting us against each other for a long time now. It was the wealthy that cause WWII and every other major war where everyone but them ends up dying.

  I agree there are better alternatives.

  Arguing in bad faith is a mistake. Blocked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marjorie Taylor Greene calls on NPR, PBS to appear for hearing on media bias⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “Germany spends $142.42 per person on its public media. Norway spends $110.73, Finland $101.29, Denmark $93.16. Leave Scandinavia for Western Europe and you see the U.K. at $81.30, France at $75.89, and Spain at $58.25. Heading a bit east? The Czech Republic’s at $60.08, Estonia $55.70, and Lithuania $32.71.

  Only trust the Anglosphere? Try Australia $35.78, New Zealand $26.86, or Canada $26.51. How about Asia? Japan spends $53.15, South Korea $14.93. Africa? Botswana’s at $18.38, Cabo Verde $15.22.

  And then there’s the United States — which spends $3.16, per person, per year, on public broadcasting. Ten quarters, four dimes, five nickels, and a penny.”

  Please, just stop with your nonsense.

  NPR receives a small number of competitive grants from CPB and federal agencies like the Department of Education and the Department of Commerce. This funding amounts to less than 1% of revenues.

  I am a little disappointed this is not one of those pictures you need to squint to see. Someone should jam this and Gwyneth Paltrow’s hoo-ha into stable diffusion. For humanity, of course.

  That is a good point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft announces studio closure as it lays off 185 staff⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was pretty sure Steam was getting dunked on because you don’t actually own the games according to the contract. I was just pointing out this is also true of any commercial piece of software.

  For example, you go to GameStop and buy a physical copy of your favorite game. When you install it he EULA makes it clear you don’t actually own the product, just a license.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft announces studio closure as it lays off 185 staff⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t bother reading the EULA for all commercial software then. You don’t actually own anything you purchase.

  Unless you have the code there is no freedom and it is all an illusion.

  HIV should already be eradicated in the US. The reason it has not been is due to the greed of pharmaceutical companies.

  How fucked up is it to sentence people to die needlessly. Let’s call a spade a spade. Aotus will be guilty for the deaths of everyone killed by this decision.

  False, still like Trent’s version better. Nothing against old washed up Cash, but he didn’t add anything and just made it slower and more melodramatic.

  Did he out Emo Trent? Probably, but that didn’t make the song better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨These dames wanting inclusivity⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  When the genital sexuals came on the scene. You know the ones who want to check everyone’s genitals to make sure they are what they say they are. The ones who are only attracted to the genitals, they could care less what is attached to them.

  For them genitals is life and they have infiltrated our government to pass laws like bathroom bills. This will allow them to examine everyone’s genitals. So far they appear to be winning and everyone’s genitals will soon be seen them.

  The Genital Safety Administration (GSA) will need to have a booth in front of our bathrooms there to perform their checks. Another genital sexual licking their lips in anticipation next time you have to drop a deuce.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What was going on in England in the 1970s to give Monty Python so much comedy fodder that is still relevant today?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I grew up in Seattle in the 80’s. I really thought all races and sexualities were accepted and that men and women were equal. Boy was I surprised to find out a lot of our nation was backwards as fuck.

  Monty Python made such sense to me philosophically so it was second nature to watch it. I didn’t even think of it as British and for me it will always be timeless

  Monty Python and its absurdities are a breath of fresh air in a world gone stale.
