      I'm from the year 2042 the year he dies and I'll confirm his last words were: tarriffs are the reason I'm immortal and then died like the sad orange clown he always was.
      Ironically the crowd sizes for his funeral are massive! Only because they made a dance floor over his burial site.
      Trust me in 18 years it'll be a fun time.

    I was curious if that Missouri aluminum worker still had a job and discovered that the Magnitude 7 Metals closed in early 2024 citing “abnormally cold weather” meaning that employees only got 4 days notice of their lay-off instead of 60 days (there is an exception to the required 60 day notice if they can cite a natural disaster)

      That's how fascism worms its way in, changing history & convincing the idiots in society that basic facts are wrong & were instituted by "they", the bad guys that are the cause of all of your problems, through some wider conspiracy based around one of their characteristics. The idiots elect the people promising to end it & they start with mass cleansing & clear class divides between the elites & the working classes.

    Marriage equality became necessary for the LGBT community because for two people who've been together for years couldn't receive spousal benefit, have joint banking, visitation in a hospital setting or if their partner of many years died.
    People who have their rights uninfringed are blatantly attacking those marginalized people who just want the same rights, not special rights or treatment under constitutional law.
    There are no constitutional rights that aren't being abused by the right wing conservatives to infringe upon the rights of marginalized communities around the world.
    Religious beliefs being used as a weapon to blatantly justify recommendations of oppression and genocide is actually unconstitutional and goes against the Universal declaration of human rights.
    It's reckless and demeaning to those religious people and organizations who accept the diversity of this human race.

    I must admit, I’m not sure why, instead of getting on the bandwagon that:"Truth isn’t truth" as being silly, they don’t start to explain that since our percetion of events are based on what we perceived, previous experience, personality, information we pay more attention to, our individual strenght and weakness, there’s very rarely a situation that’s a universal truth the moment we’re involving people perceiving a situation… It’s more than time we start recognizing that due to how different we all are, we very rarely perceive the same thing while looking at a situation… Ackowledging that would be a great step in starting to think of ways to navigate our complex world while working with our differences instead of dismissing them…

    I’m not defending Katter here, but I just want to say this: I live in the UK.
    If I was Scottish and flew a Scotland flag in my garden, I would be seen as proud to be Scottish.
    If I was Welsh and flew a Welsh flag in my garden, I would be seen as proud to be Welsh.
    If I was Irish and flew a Ireland flag in my garden, I would be seen as proud to be Irish.
    If I was Norwegian and flew a Norse flag in my garden, I would be seen as proud to be Norwegian.
    However I am English and if I flew a England flag in my garden, I would be seen as a racist homophobic POS and immediately be set upon by News and locals as such.
    The line between patriotism and racism has been wiped away. That’s all I’m saying.

      Stop lying. People get more hate for flying a pride flag in their garden than flying the St. George Cross. Everytime the World Cup is on the flag is everywhere, even in Scotland and Wales.
      You're acting like the people in America that treat the Flag like a religious symbol & claim it's not allowed to show it off anymore because of "the woke mob" but it's just their intolerance and "patriotism" (ultra-nationalism & supremacy masquerading as such) on full display as they berate people for not respecting a fucking piece of cloth. No one is coming to cancel you because you put your national flag up. You're recieving accusations of homophobia and xenophobia because you harass people online and spout hate speech and claim you're being silenced.

    His answers were "reasonable".
    for example, the word "gay" was a
    happy useful word.
    A Gay World is a Good World. right?
    Instead, now a days, "gay" means a gay man or woman.
    The other day, my dog acted gay.
    I do not mean it in a mating way,
    He jumped around, wagged his tail,
    and I thought to myself "THAT is gay".
