The problem isn’t the student loans per se, its that the principle has been paid off many times over and somehow moat people own many times more in interest.

Forgiving imaginary debt is not the same as paying off someones bad debt.

I think Steven Miller is pulling a lot of the strings.

Early on in the presidency he was reported as the guy basically first and last to be with trump each day.

But in your scenario, that was exactly where you needed a new cable, even though you had the right one before then.

So if your monitor came with 2 cables and your gpu came with 2 cables, thats 4 cables instead of 3.

That is such a huge waste of material.

When a monitor supports both display port and hdmi port, they need to supply 2 6 foot cables just in case? And what happens when 6ft isn’t enough for a specific situation. You need to then buy an extra one just in case?

Also, when buying replacements, the cables are totally unnecessary.

We have a bad enough problem with E waste. Making it worse for the sake of the tiniest convenience for the average consumer is ridiculous.

I think it has a lot more to do with the urban / rural political divide. And the fact that the cities are where political unrest will begin and take root.

They’re trying to stifle it before it gets bad, or use any violence as an excuse to increase the pressure.

Also, it helps normalize having soldiers in the streets , so citizens put up with it as a new way of living.

The redactions never travel as fast or far as the original message. They know this.

I love your optimism.

But at some point, you have to look around and say this isn’t business as usual anymore right?

Maybe we’re not there for you yet, but have you set up your own lines where you can say, once they’ve crossed that line, it’s not okay?

My lines were way back when he promised to chase down dangerous criminals, and they started rounding up day labourers. When they tried to pretend due process was unnecessary and undeserved by the people they didn’t like.

When they deployed military units in domestic cities under the completely bogus claims of emergencies.

Nothing they say is true, because the only thing they treat as true, is whatever is most expedient to them in any given moment.

There is no legal or traditional way of running the government that is safe from their perverting intentions.

Congressional approval is kind of a forgone conclusion at this point isn’t it?

I don’t trust any of the safeguards in place to hold. Some might. Some won’t. The ones that fail will be abused to a greater and greater extent as they test their limits.

If that is all they are doing, it’s to normalize their presence. Until it isn’t all they’re doing anymore.

You can trust them, because they aren’t bound by the same chains as the mainstream media. That is where I get all my best news from. /s

David Pecker, former publisher of the National Enquirer, testified at Donald Trump’s hush money trial Tuesday about the “catch and kill” agreements between the former president and the tabloid, detailing arrangements involving Trump’s former doorman and an ex-Playboy model.

So it is actually kind of interesting that they’d be talking about this at all.

Sometimes words evolved for the spelling, sometimes for the sounds.

I think in this case it was for the fun sound, especially given it arose through tiktok communities.

Isn’t exclusive data just ‘Trust us bro, we have the numbers?’

I don’t think that defeats it at all, it just changes the direction of the conversation and is as deeply philosophical as the first. Some might say life goes on with or without free will so it doesn’t matter, other say that the a societal acceptance of the absence of free will removes the burden of guilt, and could reshape society in very profound ways, so of course it matters.

Some women stay and fight. If there were no men, then more women would stay and fight. Your argument is really holds no water.

“Women need men, because a lot of men are terrible people.”

There’s less posts sure, but when I left last year so much of Reddits front page content was just badly reposted bot garbage anyway.

There were some specific communities where there we enough active real people posted to keep it interesting, but I could tell then where it was going, and as far as I can tell I wasn’t wrong.

Artificially created content to force or fake engagement to drive ad sales isn’t any less dead than here.

Also the fact that you’re giving your content up for free so spez can lock it behind paywalls is just insane.
