DeSantis says as US president he would eliminate IRS, DoE (Energy & Education) & DoC(Commerce)

Reply in thread

DeSantis is a Harvard law school grad and Navy lawyer, he absolutely has an idea what all of those governmental entities do, this is just him and the GOP trying to normalize the fascistic accumulation of power, step one of becoming a dictatorship.

Also this is the GOP's plan to do exactly that:

It's just a step by step to purge the government, then whatever else, of undesirables while making an effort to destroy our government one piece at a time. Fascistic Libertarian hellscape here we come! (Also this is nothing new from them, just more open fascism)

Trump pushes envelope with comment on the ‘poisoning’ of U.S. ‘blood’

Donald Trump, second generation German immigrant, who has lived within sight of Lady Liberty most of his life, what an embarrassment, not only to Americans, but specifically New Yorkers, one of the most mixed melting pots of a city in the entire world. What a racist idiot, especially when you consider the fact that south and central Americans were here before white people, so if anybody is diluting America's blood line, it's white motherfuckers like myself and Donald Trump.

Finding a Tech Job Is Still a Nightmare

We need to unionize, or the existing Tech/Communications unions need to get better and expand to include us.

We also need to force tech departments to stop offshoring their workers, I love our Indian tech Bros as much as the next guy, but companies need to hire local first rather than ripping off Indian tech Bros on the cheap just because they can.

And lastly, let remote workers who can do their jobs perfectly fine working remote stay remote, there is absolutely no reason why someone who works in cloud or virtualization technologies should have to be onsite, same with developers, same with so many other positions, both tech and standard.

'Scripture is very clear': New House Speaker tells Congress God has 'ordained' them

Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.

The most powerful man in the House doesn't like divorce

Reply in thread

No dummy, this type of shit is exactly what increases domestic violence, spousal rape, and spousal murder.

Time to grow the fuck up and realize a wife isn't a sex doll combined with a domestic servant.

If this is your religion telling you this then fuck your religion, and any other religion that offers abusive lines of thinking like this.

People shouldn't be forced to be trapped in their shitty marriages if they don't want to be, and not everyone needs a reason to fall out of love, or to realize they were never in love, sometimes it just happens, love is just brain chemistry and the focus of that love tends to change over your lifetime, so divorces shouldn't need to be proven, all a divorce should need is one side calling it quits on the marriage, and we all should learn to respect that.

Nick Fuentes defends child grooming on his podcast. A former supporter disavows him, yet a majority of right-wingers in the replies proceed to side with Nick and defend pedophilia

Reply in thread

All the calls of pedo are coming from inside of the "Right wing house", the Left isn't accusing anybody of grooming, however we definitely should be with the amount of priests, pastors, coaches, and cops who get caught molesting kids.

It's by design though, the Right wants to lower the age of consent, and they are using terms like "groomer" heavily against liberals and LGBTQ folks, because they want a justification to exterminate them once they get the camps going.
