Tucker Carlson Thinks...

Death cult capitalism -- because if the world doesn’t eat you, they sure as hell will.

Yup. First step to putting out a fire is to STOP HELPING PEOPLE THROW GASOLINE ON IT!! Republicans have turned the government into a dumpster fire BY INTENTION and continue to throw fuel on that fire at every turn. There is no path to extinguishing that fire (let alone fixing everything they’ve damaged) by continuing…

That’s kind of the problem — it doesn’t matter how many laws there are forbidding something, if nobody enforces them, they might as well not exist. And guess who effectively owns law enforcement? I’ll give you a hint...not the average person.

I agree. But in this instance, they don’t have that. They don’t even have a *simple* majority, not when you actually look at the voting track records of the members. Which is why all these cries to ‘ignore the GOP and stop trying bipartisanship’ are pointless — they don’t have the votes to bypass the GOP blockade. And…

Given her state, she’s like Manchin — about as ‘progressive’ as the staunchly regressive population she represents will permit. Which is to say, she’s not really a Democrat and never will be. She’s part of the remnants of yesterday’s ‘moderate republican’ who has been displaced by the rabid radicalization of the…

What is the point of having ‘enough votes’ when the votes you *DO* get won’t be in favor of your agenda? See: Sinema and Manchin.

Hey, hey! Orangutans are quite peaceful, and while quite strong, are more likely to hide or flee when presented with anything that might be threatening. Don’t you be comparing them to Trumpanzees — which is somewhat more appropriate, because Chimps are also quite strong, can be short- or ill-tempered, and can be…

With our present-day ‘stay the course’ attitudes regarding doing anything of real substance to undo all the damage we’ve caused and continue to cause? Yeah, we’re pretty well fucked. It just won’t be the people causing all these problems who will pay for it. Sure, humanity might go extinct, but it’ll all be long after…

I didn’t say it was. But *TO SELL SOMETHING IN AMERICA* it has to meet certain standards, both legal and regulatory. Guess where the American government is repeatedly falling down — yeah, setting laws and regulatory standards that protect consumer rights. Just like this one.

The *perversion* of the Golden Rule in action: he who has the gold makes the rules.

Another example of consumer rights protections being failed by both political parties, in whom the people have entrusted the power to stop these kinds of abuses and misconducts from happening.

This would also fall under the umbrella of bribery, which is *ALSO* a huge no-no for law enforcement. But America and its law enforcement isn’t corrupt or anything....

Standing at death’s door....

What is there to investigate?! Any officer kneeling on someone *ISN’T* following police procedures, because that is *EXPLICITLY* banned. And kneeling on someone’s NECK?? You only do that if you’re trying to kill someone — that’s called ATTEMPTED MURDER. And the other officers who stood by and didn’t stop it are ACCOMPL…

78 degrees is not an unreasonable temperature. 70-72, in a near-desert region of the world, where triple-digit external temperatures is pretty normal, however, *IS* unreasonable.

Unfortunately/fortunately, there is a solution to help address some of this. But it’s not cheap. Billion-dollar infrastructure required. First, the heat itself is an easy ally. Focus and concentrate it to produce electricity. Use that electricity to desalinate sea water and pump it (yes, really) through reverse…

While this is all important — and yes, industry has been actively and/or passively sabotaging recycling efforts for decades — recycling is the last-ditch effort to minimize the impacts of our society. Reduce first. Reuse what you can. And then, the option of last resort, recycle anything left over. Recycle is last…

The problem is that there’s nothing so sophisticated or expensive about secure communications networks that major syndicates couldn’t set up *their own* encrypted network. They’re just taking the shortcut of letting someone else build and manage it for them. They’ll realize the flaw with that approach and move…

I’ve being comparing humanity to a dog blissfully chasing after cars into freeway traffic...or a child playing with a bottle of trinitrotoluene. Nothing good can possibly come of it...but they just can’t help themselves either.
