It’s been found that the proportional size of certain parts of the brain correlate to political views. For example, if the part of the brain that is responsible for the fight-or-flight response (the right amygdala) is larger, that is correlated to a higher likelihood of being politically conservative.

Well, to be fair, it might not just be the money. He’s giving credit to the stroke, so maybe it just takes extensive brain damage for a progressive to turn conservative.

Saying a brain injury made you more conservative is not the flex you think it is.

Bro, you have the actual statement in what you commented lol. The dealership told him it was only driven into and out of the bay. Fucking everyone knows you need to test drive it after a top end rebuild like that, that’s not the issue. It’s what they said, which is just a total lie. If you have to drive it 8 miles

How can you say that? Polluting aquafiers to pull methane out of the earth to make fertilizer to pollute different aquafiers to feed corn to ship across the country to turn into ethanol to ship back across the country to add to gasoline to pollute the atmosphere is the American Way!

I think the issue is that they said one thing, it didn’t get driven, when it was clearly a lie. I’d be pretty pissed off too. If they were like, yes we had to test the engine and drove it a bit, I’d be much less likely to argue about the 8 miles. Though 8 miles does seem a bit more than what’s needed.

3rd Gear: Maybe the federal government should stop handing out tax breaks and subsidies to Big Oil and Big Corn.  Then maybe they will rethink their bullshit strategy.

I see shit like this where the guy has a rap sheet of SERIOUS crimes and yet is out there walking free versus the myriads of people now serving hard time... for smoking a joint. Stupid.

Found the incel Musk worshipper.

When he stops spray painting himself orange, I assume it will stop.

Unfortunately, those that would be offended by calling him orange are for all intents and purposes beyond being won over. Even the most left leaning of liberals, and previously the most ardent of conservatives, are able to laugh at the gaffs and foibles of their representatives. The inability of diehard Trump

Right, but since we ARE livin in a police state with illegal stops and illegal civil asset forfeiture, why does it appear to be applied so inconsistently? If we all live under the system where cops can take our stuff even if we AREN’T convicted of a crime, why do they drag their feet when a repeat offender commits

People are pissed when Police seize clearly innocent peoples things. This is a different story. Repeatedly breaking the law with seemingly endless documentation, they could have and should have taken his car a long time ago.

It only sounds claustrophobic if you think you can’t leave—that is what the fear based conspiracies around 15-minute cities are pushing.

The people I know that live way out of the city on their mandatory minimum 5 acre lots are often living in fear, always armed, filled with xenophobic racist christo-fascist rage.

How about we just have one rule for everyone to follow, regardless of “commercial use”?  If anything, commercial vehicles should be held to a much higher standard, since they are driven for many more miles than a consumer vehicle is.

Damn, it’s a good thing no one’s ever been wrongfully convicted of anything, and that both policing and sentencing are perfectly fair and equitable across all groups at all times. And, of course, that the private prison industry doesn’t set minimum occupancy rules to ensure it has a supply of labor from which to

You have a fundamental misunderstanding of the prison system, and humanity.

When you look up “white privilege” in the dictionary, a hyperlink to this story must be included.  “Wasn’t criminal” to assault a police officer??  That roar you just heard was every single Black guy in American screaming “WTF”?

Do you know what police officers do??
