From nightlife to life at night: Cities must stay open later to beat the rising heat
"Must" in a headline means "won't".
Capitalism wants us miserable and exhausted.

Sleeve to protect your Flock camera from the elements by covering the lens
Reply in thread
Seems to me like this could be modified to mount a laser pointer to point directly into the lens without having to stand in front of the camera to aim it.

Democrat leader Hakeem Jeffries and Trumps son-in-law Jared Kushner discuss ways White House and Democrats can collaborate
Reply in thread
No, this is Jeffries and Kushner, not democrats to their voters.
They probably talked about how best to murder Palestinians.

"No precedent in American history!" NYT would have defended child labor.
Stopping the orphan crushing machine would abolish the orphan crushing industry. There's no precedent in American history.
Medicare for All would save a trillion dollars and 114,000 American lives, both annually. Fuck the insurance racket.

Republican running to the left of too many democrats.

'Stop gaslighting me!': Florida Democrats' Senate nominee and party chair have heated call over socialism
Reply in thread
Maybe, but the alternative is centrist democrats who can only be counted on to support genocide.
Or republicans.
I regard as suspicious anyone who tries to demonize progressives or DSA candidates.

'Stop gaslighting me!': Florida Democrats' Senate nominee and party chair have heated call over socialism
One of the Florida Democratic Party sources said that the organization did not favor Vindman over Nixon and was neutral in the primary.
Is anyone actually stupid enough to believe this lie ever again?

The wing that lost to trump by running on how great genocide is has no business telling anyone what it takes to win.

Feel free to actually cite anything I’ve said that you see as somehow being in conflict and I will explain them to you.
How about I don't waste a bunch of time wading through your apologia for bigots just so you can pretend that bigotry is just a harmless difference of opinion that never harmed anyone.
You’re arguing with a near 50 year year old man who spent 5 years in prison in the US for being black at the wrong place at the wrong time.
You're arguing with someone who won't disclose biographical information on the internet as a replacement for defensible ideas. It cannot be verified without a serious breech of privacy and it's a cheap way to argue.
You sound like a kid who hasn’t had much actual experience with genuine intolerance
Anyone who disagrees with you must be younger than you and therefore wrong. Why not? After all, in this thread you've argued that misgendering and deadnaming trans people is tolerant behavior, and lamented at length that you can no longer call disabled people slurs without pushback. I'm wasting my time with you and should have seen that from the beginning. This is the last two cents' worth you're getting out of me. I overpaid already.

The line comes at insisting others different from yourself are inferior and don’t have the same right to live and be. That is intolerance.
So far in this comment section, your line has been set at about half a dozen different places. I think this is deliberate to make your position difficult to pin down and thereby effectively argue against.
Because you're trying to get people to blithely accept bigotry as a normal part of a healthy society, until such time as bigots achieve their (your) goals.

You only really need it for those you’d consider bigots or horribly wrong in their values because they don’t match your own.
People who think my friends shouldn't have rights or exist at all are bigots. People who insist that I should be forced to tolerate them are just stalling until they can progress to violence. That's what you're doing.

Part of that is accepting that they have the right to be honest about how they feel just as much as you have the right to be honest about how you feel.
I think you're only tolerant of bigots and no one else.
