I'll never forget that chart that shows no correlation between the consensus of regular people and what is actual policy and a strong correlation between what elites want and what actual policy is. We're a managed democracy and have been for some tim

Having your own car and being able to maintain that car and have a consistent parking place is more expensive in the city. That's the price of having good transit and buildings close enough together for everything to be in walking distance. You have to tolerate a crowd to live in the city.

There are a lot of advantages to living in a big city. Access to jobs, access to culture, better nightlife, more stuff to do more access to different kinds of goods. More 24-hour stuff. Accessible transit. But you have to be tolerant of others. Also you can't really have a horse like in the country.

For instance, if you live in multi-unit housing, perhaps to save money, you're going to have upstairs neighbors and you're going to have to be willing to tolerate them walking around their house normally. If you don't like that, don't live in an apartment.

You could talk to your neighbors but leaving that aside, there is a baseline amount of tolerance for noise that you have to accept to live in a big city. You especially need to accept this if you live in ethnic neighborhoods with cultures that have a different noise tolerance. Don't be a colonizer

it's a total lie by some racist but I would not judge actual people ransacking a store because of SNAP cuts negatively.

They certainly do but the platform itself covers an extensive amount of topics, much of which is not even relevant to the IDF or CIA, whether it be what different kinds of drugs do or detailed lore about all of Sonic the hedgehog's friends. And the site does have some countermeasures against this.

It is not hard at all to get MAGA people dependent on SNAP to demand it be abolished. "I'm on EBT, but those mexican illegals and black people are on 'food stamps' which is a waste of money and should be abolished"

And the saddest part is that so many of Trump's voters are on snap. Other things that create hostility to snap is just envy but it's misguided. Snap is worse than employment income from a living wage.

It's looking more and more like Curtis Yarvis dystopian vision of feudal style property rights for the wealthy, where they are served by disposable dying slaves, coerced into having more children.

The slightly more moderate version of this is incredibly restrictive food rations provided by food banks with no steak or candy allowed. Poor households know what they need and providing them the snap card gives them the dignity of being able to shop and make their own choices.

The right's answer to people going without food stamps is that poor people unable to work (surplus population) should be allowed to die of starvation and as Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin suggest, converted into biofuels. It's just social darwinism.

Still awaiting my George $oros payment for showing up at #NoKINGS_Day & staying until noon.

Somebody slipped this 20 under my door, but something about it seems fake.

Wikipedia is truly the greatest thing the internet has ever produced. it is the modern day library of alexandria, untouched by the AI SEO slop that has, crowding out websites actual research and journalism and he wants to destroy it. Elon is the patron god of ignorance

On one hand the left has an answer to a social ill that is backed up by systematic evidence, but why aren't they giving equal time to the wrong solution that sits well with someone completely uneducated on the topic? Is the left out of touch? We visited an Ohio diner to find out how they feel.

As a liberal let me write this Washington Post op-ed about how I think the Democratic party should Go along with every reactionary dumb opinion Republicans propose so the Republicans will get tired of winning and Democrats can win

Exactly. There is a difference between good things and bad things. Charlie Kirk was a bad person and a propagandist for a fascist movement that is continuing to metastasize. There's "so much for the tolerant left" cliche is a trite argument

for real though, if you can cut my rent costs and make my commute free, you can eat your rice however you like. I genuinely do not care how a candidate eats rice. Use a spoon, Use fork. Bury your head in the plate like a dog for all I care. Rent is too damn high.

also its not even over, they're still doing it, so there's that too.

These people will say claim they didn't know better, that that was the mainstream consensus at the time and they will resent the idea that they could be mainstream and centrist but morally wrong. But people did know better, and the "center" is the center of power not morals

As the tide shifts on Israel and the genocide, we can't allow the complicit and cowardly enablers in the US and EU or the perpetrators to live it down or re-write history or claim that refusing to work with involved IDF personnel is about hating Jewish people

This movie was absolutely incredible and I loved it. It's not the kind of movie I would normally watch but I watched it with some friends and found it disturbing but also an incredible metaphor as well
