Small detail some might miss, one of the editorial board signatures is Ted Kaczynski.

Brilliant paragraph:

“What of the tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians killed before this attack?” some may ask. Our response is simply that we aren’t going to engage with that because it would be too hard. We also won’t be addressing Palestinians living in refugee camps without access to clean water, electricity, or housing. Others may ask, “Isn’t it your responsibility to provide context, particularly on thorny issues such as this one?” To that, we merely say: No, shut up. You’re being annoying.

There should be some kind of punishment for knowingly arresting people you can't charge with a crime. This has happened at numerous protests for years, dozens of people arrested, released without a single charge.

Isn't false imprisonment or abduction a crime? The police use this as a disruption tactic, they don't care about the likelihood of actual charges.

Dang, only "slightly injured".

They are already shooting women in the face point blank, and Trump calls the shooter a hero and the victim a domestic terrorist. Burn this motherfucker down.

Nah he's still loved, I've seen Luigi prayer candles and grafitti plenty, he still receives massive amounts of fanmail. When the actual trial starts the fans will come out more.

Unless those on the attacking side (MAGA) decide they don't want to murder more of us, I'm not sure we can. The first civil war was incredibly bloody and tensions between the sides never settled down fully. We are in this situation partly because there is no way to have a compromise with people that believe some of our society's members aren't human. The white supremacist view of slave owners and supporters of slavery never went away, it needs to be cut out from the root.

National Guard units shot and killed four student protesters in Ohio at Kent State University in 1970, wounding nine others. I've read the police used excuses like they had intel there were communist agitators involved, funnily similar to what they say today.

People can say whatever they want but we don't cater to bootlickers here, they can go fuck themselves. Why should we allow comments from people who want me dead? Their fascist bullshit is allowed basically anywhere else, they can go to reddit.

It's giving me hope for the future of workers, I'm thinking of deeper effects strikes like this could have. Thousands of people going on strike, a lot of them likely for the first time. If these get results, thousands of people will know first hand the power of class-consciousness and collective action, without relying on voting or petitions but concrete action. It will inspire their views going forward and inspire other workers.

There are times cops have shot someone 30 or more times, who is clearly absolutely dead and they will still apply bandages and give CPR sometimes to give at least the impression of protecting life. To me the denial of medical care in this situation is even more proof of guilt than the shooting because they can argue they feared for their life in the moment, but they had ample time to provide aid and deliberately blocked it.

The murderer even went to check the body immediately after but then left, I would be unsurprised if he saw she was still potentially alive and they decided to block aid intentionally to make sure she was dead. I assumed she was shot in the face or head 3 or 4 times which would be unlikely to survive, but apparently she was wounded twice in the chest on the right side, once in the forearm and once in the head. I don't know the specific damage from the shot to the head, it's most likely she would have at least been in a vegetative state or have severe brain damage if she had lived, but to deny the chance of any aid for over ten minutes would seal the deal of a conviction for murder if I were a jury member in this case.

I love how the post I saw immediately before this was about Biden's new Trump insult, 'Broke Don'. So insult your rivals by calling them poor, definitely a good way to relate to struggling voters.

It's an especially insidious type of monopoly to me because it deals with relationships, they can manipulate millions of people, affecting the creation of their families and kids.

Good, AI art fucking sucks.

What year was the tablet? Samsung argued against Apple that they couldn't own the design of the tablet itself because it had been done in 1968 in 2001: A Space Odyssey. Either way, nearly every piece of tech could probably be found first in sci-fi.

The Wikipedia article for the attack has a pretty thorough summary of the events, most aspects of it are pretty well documented as far as I can tell. Essentially, the police were able to slow them down while congress members were evacuated to more secure areas. After a woman was shot breaking into a barricaded chamber door, much of the attack seemed to dissipate, and not long after further reinforcements were able to help clear the rest of the building. Trump then told his supporters to go home, knowing they had been routed.

Wholesome to see people help, but the main feeling I get is revulsion that this person can have a wheelchair provided with insurance but can't even get proper functionality without paying.

And the Democrat leader Schumer says his job is to keep the left pro-Israel, there is no redeemable politician in power here. If we had real justice they would all be hanged for supporting genocide.

People will see your comment and think "hey that sounds like my city", but you could say this about basically every major city in the US.

It's an opinion piece, they start out with their claim and try to back it up, it's not a news article, what is the problem?
