Very mixed. Just for my kids ….

Right. Part of the problem is self-righteous people thinking in black and white.
Trump promised to deport illegals. Of course there won’t be any impact on documented immigrants.
People who think this way also tend not to be able to synthesize the larger answer based on other info, such as Trump promising to act as dictator from day one or trumps complete lack of empathy and respect for the law, or the amoral sycophants he put into leadership positions
Every president has deported undocumented immigrants and we don’t usually object too much. If that’s what was happening this wouldn’t be as big an issue. The problem is when it’s clearly racist , or depriving people of human rights and due process, or done by a bunch of thugs cowering behind masks while holding themselves above the law, or brutalizing witnesses and spreading terror., or kidnapping people from schools, churches, courthouses. Was this voter able to connect the dots?
Sure but Harris already win NY, so it doesn’t affect anything
A person in this thread above here was talking about being politically unaware of Greta Thunberg. It is valuable to continue fact checking, both so we don’t normalize the lies and to catch any unaware people
Not mine but two from my state? wtf?
Stop being obtuse. Giving up advancements in science and technology is stagnation. Thinking it’s a good idea to not do anything until people are fed and housed is stagnation. Again, it’s not a zero sum game. Those unfed and unhoused people are not that way because of investments in technology and science, and not doing those things will not affect those people
Focus your nonsense on corruption, exploitation, capitalistic excess, income disparities and most of all elected people with empathy …… that are the cause and could help
We put too much stock in training here, for things that should be obvious. How do we know you shouldn’t do that? I haven’t had any police training.
This is related to that “qualified immunity” bullshit. Somehow we let what could have been an appropriate thing turn into cops being above the law except in rare cases they were specifically trained for and there is existing case law. Bullshit. All too many of these look interesting headline cases start with “any sane person knows …” yet cops are above the law
But don’t you wish we had status quo now? I could go for a little stability and respect with a side of human rights and investment in the future
Smaller than many “no kings” protests, smaller than the Pope’s thing in Chicago.
“No Kings” protests are planned everywhere! I intended to go in my town, but now im tempted to go into Boston for the bigger one, to help those numbers
I don’t see it as a zero sum game. On the contrary, I see advancing science and technology as an investment in our future that makes it easier to take care of our people, and stagnation as making it harder to care for our people
While I liked both Harris and Biden, this last election proved you need to be a white make and you need to be loud and argumentative. Policies, intelligence, ethics, competence are no longer important. Biden biggest mistake was laying out the foundation that would make america better over a decade, when people are clamoring for immediate action, or at least noise and chaos. Newsom can stand there and argue with the fascists.
We all have different battles. Ours are currently focussed on our colleges and universities, research and innovation. We recently won one where the court decided that mango Mussolini can’t prevent specific colleges from admitting foreign students out of spite. Of course there’s a major chilling effect but it’s a win.
Also, one of our senators has been extremely vocal and active. Not much Dems can do in Congress but speaking up is a start
And yes, we have many “No Kings”protests lined up that will get huge turnout for our population. Thoughts and prayers are on the way, but also gives encouragement for our representatives, our state, our law enforcement to do what they can.
The problem is we’re over-consuming now, over-populating now, but will feel the effects of lower birth rates in 50+ years. There’s extremely delayed feedback on population trends, but that doesn’t make it untrue.
Even conservatives sometime start from a point of truth. The problem is their solution is to turn back rights for women, opportunities for women. Technically correct, if you have no morals or empathy.
For the rest of us concerned about this possibility, society needs to change a lot to remove obstacles from people who do choose to have children. And this would take a couple generations to take effect so we need to start now, to stabilize the dropping population in 50-100 years
US has the cheap solution: higher immigration than most developed countries. I’m sure we’re going to encourage that while we try to figure out how to make having children more appealing. No one would mess that up, right?
I look at long term trends where the global population peaks in a few decades then heads down all too quickly, and find it important to act to stabilize that at a level a bit below here we are now
Yeah, what are those damn commies going to demand next, human rights?
That’s really cool. I haven’t seen anything like that Caldero since a college roommate many years ago.
They have to. Where else would so many new ones come from? So many who are so unaware of rights and laws?
