I'm shocked there's no bump in 2020-2021. Many people I know, myself included, started drinking so much more during the pandemic.

Fuck the fascists. We fought the British over less tyrannical shit than what Trump is promising.

Maybe because manh people think it's useless and stupid and wish it would go away. Trusting a random bot to tell you the political leaning of an information source so you know whether to trust the information is peak stupidity, IMO.

This comment is proof a certain segment of liberals just can't be happy.

"just Medicare expansion and lowering prescription drug costs" Just?! Oh you mean just two issues which voters have been demanding for over 2 decades? Just what democrats have tried to accomplish forever but Republicans have blocked?

Political parties are capable of having and achieving multiple policy goals at once. Jesus christ.

Sometimes it feels like playing up how everything is sacred for native Americans actually infantaliszes them and gives the American government a pass on the truly horrific wrongs committed against native Americans.

I'm glad she's the candidate too, but you're just making up a scenario in your head based on no evidence.

Fun fact, if you turn a toaster sideways you can use them to make quesadillas.

This works about 90% of the time.

Defeatist bullshit

The reaction to Project 2025 has really surprised me. There's nothing new in it that hasn't floated around in the worst parts of conservative circles.

I am so glad I canceled my WaPo subscription

Some context from a mod at /r/law

Selected Applications of the Brandenburg Test The Supreme Court in Hess v. Indiana (1973) applied the Brandenburg test to a case in which Gregory Hess, an Indiana University protester, said, “We’ll take the fucking street later (or again)." The Supreme Court ruled that Hess’s profanity was protected under the Brandenburg test, as the speech “amounted to nothing more than advocacy of illegal action at some indefinite future time.” The Court held that “since there was no evidence, or rational inference from the import of the language, that his words were intended to produce, and likely to produce, imminent disorder, those words could not be punished by the State on the ground that they had a ‘tendency to lead to violence.’”

In NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co.(1982), Charles Evers threatened violence against those who refused to boycott white businesses. The Supreme Court applied the Brandenburg test and found that the speech was protected: “Strong and effective extemporaneous rhetoric cannot be nicely channeled in purely dulcet phrases. An advocate must be free to stimulate his audience with spontaneous and emotional appeals for unity and action in a common cause. When such appeals do not incite lawless action, they must be regarded as protected speech.”

The test determined that the government may prohibit speech advocating the use of force or crime if the speech satisfies both elements of the two-part test:

The speech is “directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action,” AND

The speech is “likely to incite or produce such action.”

I don't know what the hell is going on but I love these comics

It feels like Proton has lost touch with reality. Their core products are stagnant and unpolished while they keep adding new services. Then they add a Bitcoin wallet and start cracking jokes about shitcoins. When there's backlash from paying users, their volunteer mods demand civility, ie stop criticizing Proton.

I'm probably not going to leave Proton any time soon because the move from Google products was exhausting. But I have completely lost faith in the company and am on the lookout for an alternative.

I canceled my subscription. The billionaires have openly declared for fascism. Fuck em all and may God help us.

I didn't say it was a good idea.

Of course it's a fucking issue! Do you think it will be better now that Netanyahu got the person be wanted in the white house?! My god how short sighted are you!

I know you did

Me: what's that mean?

Them: age sex and where you're from ;)

Me: 13/m

Them: do you have a bush yet?

Me: A bush? What do you mean?

Literally my first interaction in a chat room.
