Hmm, I get where you’re coming from. I get the same way when people misuse PTSD. I’ll try to find a better way to state it next time.

Sorry we just passed the law. You can expect an Alma Mater SWAT team to show up and torture you for the information.

We’re talking about the pop culture definition of someone who feels no shame, and just takes the most direct path no matter how fucked up it is.

Anxiety and stress actually do take years off your life. Sociopaths do not suffer from anxiety and stress.

Where I live gas is like 4.50, but electricity is also run by a for-profit company that the state doesn’t regulate.

The entire reason they’re so hard to change is so they don’t get changed on a whim. If it’s in that document it’s because 3/4 of every elected representative in every state thought it was that important. Letting Congress change something like that with a simple majority or filibuster majority is ridiculous and means either party could completely re-write the basis of our laws at will just by changing that document. For example instead of trying to change and enforce every law about marriage and benefits they could simply pass a constitutional change to define marriage conservatively and let the courts go through striking down the now unconstitutional normal laws.

Making that document hard to change is one of the things America got right.

Okay, but the problem most people are worried about is how much food do they need to eat to get their needs met. Growing in a far denser manner doesn’t matter to people if chicken and bugs carry a higher load in the grocery store. So there’s a compromise there. And crickets look like they slot right into it. In other words you’re confusing Economic with Efficient. They aren’t always the same.

That’s a very fine line though. and you’re hoping they don’t fire you just for being the bent nail.

Okay, we don’t need to go adding extra stupid stuff. At the base level you’re doing their normalization for them. At the high level we need an accurate idea of what’s coming so we can prepare.

Watching the actual interview it’s clear he makes some assertions. They don’t want to separate families so they will send the US citizens with the family if the family wants. What this generally means is when the parents are undocumented but a kid is a citizen. This interview does not support denaturalizing people, (but he did do that in his first term), or forcing American citizens in a mixed status family who are adults to leave.

On the 14th the interviewer wanted and got an answer from an 80 year old partially senile man. His first, natural answer to the 14th amendment question was he would go to the people. He only noncommittally said he would look at an EO when then interviewer kept asking him but what about an executive order. If he’s mentioned doing that before the proper way is to bring up what he said before and see if he still holds that position. Not repeating, “but what about an EO” 5 times until you get the funny and the headline writers can celebrate.

The open question is how will this highly suggestable man fare around the likes of Stephen Miller.

You uh… okay with voiding parts of the Constitution with a vote in Congress? or Executive Order?

Don’t ever engage with culture sensing surveys honestly. The only place they weren’t a trap (ironically) was the US Army where they did it on paper, punished people for putting their names on them, and walked right past your entire immediate chain of command to their bosses with the results. And the one time things were truly bad they literally brought in a Sociology expert to study our unit and figure out how things had gone bad, it resulted in all new leadership and team building exercises, in a war zone. (These results do not extend to other branches, I had one done by the Navy and it was corpo trap bullshit, got a lot of the Army guys there by surprise.)

They did the worst thing. They found him, named him, and published a glamour shot. This should have been the school shooting procedure if they didn’t want copycats. Instead of an unnamed killer they can vilify they now have the story of a normal, well educated, young man pushed over the edge. An Anti-Hero. I predict one of two things in the next 1-6 years. The death of health insurance or the death of more health insurance executives.

I’d like to take this time to point out that CEOs are cogs in a machine, important, highly placed cogs, but cogs all the same. They couldn’t run the place any other way without their majority shareholders firing them. Those are generally groups like Blackrock and Vanguard, (The largest shareholders in UHC). They have that status in many publicly traded companies. This gives them an outsized say in the board composition of companies across the economy; on issues like food, housing, and yes healthcare. If you’re looking for a deep state or shadow government, these guys are close as it gets. They don’t directly make the twisted policies but they do fire CEOs that don’t make the green line go up in any way possible.

Once Americans figure that out I think the rage is going to be surreal in it’s magnitude.

Yeah after something like this you go back to your place off the grid for a while. Certainly not some medium sized town guaranteed to have desperate boot lickers. That kid just made 60k if the arrest turns out to be legitimate.

I’ve definitely heard both sides of the argument from people who are in no way rich. This is an echo chamber on anti-wealth issues. What people agree on is getting rid of health insurance.

The policy was cleared up, basically EU/Dutch/Finnish law doesn’t like Jury Nullification in regards to future crimes/calls to violence. But in regards to crimes already committed it’s fine. And being as that’s where .world is hosted, that’s the law they go by.

The hivemind didn’t like that but it’s true, in most states just uttering the words anywhere near the courthouse can cause mistrials and a misdemeanor charge.

They specifically said it’s okay in reference to crimes already committed.

Idealistic teenagers will get you every time. Old enough to drink the Flavor Aid, young enough to not have the experience to temper it.

No, they’re clearly capable of it when they want. That’s the frustrating part. This republican lite theme is an active choice national democrats keep making.

It would leave them without status, which just might prevent legal deportation.
