It's not just BS. It is choosing the death or other serious outcomes for millions of their fellow cultists to help win the next election. It's a bit like lighting a fire at one corner of a large mansion to stay warm for the winter, except those that struck the match won't face the consequences.

(2/2) In the movie Jurassic Park someone said, "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."

I thought about adding to this quote but it stands just fine as is.

I believe that people, without putting unnecessary things in them, should strive to become their best possible selves. I believe in people period.

AI is about finding ways not to invest in humanities future, but about replacing as much humanity as possible with technology. (1/2)

The right will claim that because we have turned our back on God we fail and in so doing try to claim the mandate of heaven, which is utter trash.

The right wing has turned its back on ethics and basic human decency and is certainly not following the teaching of Jesus.

I agree fully. ANY elected official that defends the cold blooded assassination of a journalist needs to step down from power or be impeached.

America is supposed to stand for something. We are supposed to have ethics, not defend those without them.

I'm no fan of MTG, yet I am a fan of republicans breaking away.

MTG has noticed that there is a lane where you are in opposition to Trump. More will. While we are not remotely safe from Fascism, because people were dumb enough to vote him in twice, it does seem that the cult is fracturing.

The planet has more than enough people. He wants a particular skin color I suppose. I simply don't believe the republican party cares about the next generation. They certainly haven't acted like it. Right now it is hard to live without children, let alone with and that's mostly on them.

Yes, there was a lot of blame to go around. He was, however, a large part of it. He should have came down hard on them saying anyone leaks anything, they are fired. Agents were trying to play politics, which is unacceptable. Instead, he helped Trump immensely.

I checked and Waymo uses Lidar which Tesla dumped for cost savings. Curious that.

I don't buy her conversion. She keeps trying to redefine MAGA as some force for good. It was and is a force for evil. The whole thing has at its heart looking out for ourselves first, regardless to the cost to others, which is really just another definition for evil.

Yes, this era must not be forgotten. We also need to redouble our lessons about the Nazi regime, since some people are white washing it.

I interpreted as putting his personal word above what was right. He had foolishly promised.

Merrick Garland committed Comey's sin, and that is not living in the real world. Comey enabled Trump's first win, since he wanted to appear "Super Fair." That is more or less what Garland did.

Give evil a thousand chances more than anyone else, and it is liable to win the lottery on one of them.

He told the truth about trump once. That seems to have exhausted his supply of ethics. (Most likely he was just getting revenge at the time, and it was not ethics.)

Either way, Cruz is a horrible human being.

One random guy my family knows was talking about getting the $2k. Some people appear to be still buying it. Then again, I still think our focus should not be on Trumpists, but on those who didn't vote.

I'd be totally not surprised if they somehow push out the checks say a week before the next election. They are, of course, insane, but honestly, they would do it.
November 17, 2025 at 12:44 AM
That's part of the reason we have trump. Republicans were afraid of doing what was necessary to get rid of him, because Trump would do his best to destroy his own party if they didn't toe the line. Now they have the best shot they are going to get anytime soon. Are they going to do what is right?

It proves she is abandoning a sinking ship and was not in fact as stupid as she appeared.

Even if she was as stupid as she appeared to be, that is not a reason to follow her. Now we just know she is evil rather than stupid, which most elected Rs left are.

Technology allows those who really wish it to find true information. Many don't make the effort. We complain about the information control in China, yet is the average everyday American actually exposed to a higher percentage of truthful information?

We must do better, or we won't do better.
