But again, the was at low altitude. You can absolutely open a door at low altitude, but it won’t crash a plane.

You’re not wrong, but to clarify, that man was never getting that door open.  Unless the plane was at low altitude, there is no human strong enough to get even remotely close to opening a airplane door at altitude.

but in a true display of American exceptionalism, the U.S. has somehow managed to get even more dangerous.

Henry Ford is dead, Hitler is dead. As far as anyone can tell, their ideologies did not carry into the modern operations of their companies.

I’ve been thinking about that a lot since earlier this month. Here’s what I’ve landed on in my head.

If I’ve learned anything over the last few months, it’s that I assumed people paid WAY more attention to the world than they actually do.

An all blacked out RAM 1500.  Despite knowing what everyone thinks of you, you still went to a dealership and spent money on one.

Keeps cost down.  Plus parking lot moms only want white anyway, so I don’t even know why they have choices.

Is this really the narrative? Trump won the election, and right wing media controls the majority of the narrative on traditional and internet media. And the narrative is that we should block anything Democrats don’t agree with? How do you come to that conclusion?

If only legislators put even an ounce of effort into regulating the internet.  But nooooo, that would be “curbing free speech”.

Exactly. Scheffler was in a clearly marked player car with his credentials displayed. He was told to proceed by a security guard and was not made aware of the accident (which multiple witnesses corroborated). Then a police officer, who was later disciplined for not following body camera protocol, tried to stop him…

Scheffler wasn’t being “entitled and dumb” and all the charges against him were dropped.

Can we just take like a one week break from Trump/Musk? You guys are trying to pump this shit out so fast that you have spelling errors in your titles, and honestly we’re all exhausted with this.

I don’t disagree with anything you said.

Boomers are an easy out.  There are plenty of people with plenty of skin in the game (years left to live) who voted Trump.  Let’s not give them a pass by blaming this on Boomers.

You should feel worse because you’re the next stop north when all of us mouth breathing American’s are starving and have nowhere else to go.

I still don’t understand how MAGAs think tariffs are a good thing.

This is the part I’m stuck on after this election. I think American citizens have gotten overly comfortable with the idea that America’s existence as it is today is permanent. In the span of 50 ish years, we’ve gotten so used to the privilege of living here that we’re now willing to spit right in the face of that…

It doesn’t make it OK with me, but we just learned this week that it seems perfectly fine for 72 million people in this country. And it’s really more than 72 million if you count the 15-20M people who just decided to sit this election out entirely.

Musk can continue to receive and even increase the amount of benefit he receives from the government while cutting the budget for the rest of us.
