You find today’s completely politically unengaged, risk averse, violence averse, and enthusiasm lacking population to be MORE likely to actively resist, and not just complain and hope to wait for the next election, maybe kick a few bucks to a political party and keep on working on the 401K?

The people of NC care far more about basketball than principles, 10000000%.

Yeah man, there was mass mobilization of white people to resist Jim Crow laws and Japanese internment.

Their armed resistance was incredible.

Because most liberals are not leftists, and prefer to ride out whatever happens to people other than them. Their outrage never moves beyond the point where they would take action.

They would be reassuring their kids that it was just a temporary political speedbump as their neighbors are put into camps, and do nothing…

It’s pretty easy. If she claims she didn’t know her daughter was emancipated (and gone for a freaking year) she needs to have custody revoked for neglect.

The dems have been calling for this investigation since the leaks.

The GOP has completely squashed it.

Well, you know, if you outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns. But if you outlaw abortion, people will just settle down and accept it.

Yeah, as long as you only use the energy equivalent of 3 gallons of crude a year. Most use more than that daily.

Not really, no.

You can publish ridiculously libel about things with impunity.

Outlets host people literally calling for the murder of the president. Leaks from Snowden were front page news. Every embarassing thing about our government gets published. Special operations have been ruined because of media leaks and yet…

Easier analogy. You build a $10000 production line to build widgets. The factory must be paid for by widgets. Then the customer scales back their order from 10000 widgets to 100 widgets. You have only one customer, the line can only make widgets to this spec for this customer. They rise from $1 added cost per widget…

I’m trying to figure out how a worm that closes all the incoming network ports on these hasn’t been written and deployed for the good of the internet.

I’ve found good luck being suspect of any hacker/leaker/distributor of information who aligns him or herself with a nation’s agenda, rather than a personal one.

Counterpoint. Bill is still really, really popular overseas.

I think The Atlantic made a good case for siccing him on Palestine/Israel.

Front AND Back.

95% of trips taken by Americans are 30 miles or less.

It’s conjuring a one-off situation to discredit a solution that works for 95% of use cases, and then citing an event 5 billion years in the future to justify nihilistic self destruction.

For the record, our species only came into existence 1.3 million years ago. So…

I’m an engineer. I’m quite good at math. You’re an old man yelling at clouds.

Are you just yelling into the void, here?

Because if you are a freshman, you can mingle with boys usually considered popular on campus, drink for free, and go to a party where they have the money and adult enablers to set up a better party than your friends could.

Essentially, you get to go to a party subsidized by wealthy parents, by people who have many…

It’s not that some men aren’t shitty rapists, it’s that frats give shitty ment with the motivation, the means and oppurtunity to do it an order of magnitude greater than anything else. It gives them a place, easy access to drink to excess (demonstrated over and over again through research), it already attracts those…

The preponderance of evidence disagrees with you.
