I was using some facsimile of "comedic effect" in an attempt to make a joke.

How recently was he hanging out with Elon Musk?

I don't know, man. I don't think there's any healing the divide that already exists. It's not like Fox and the other propaganda machines are churning out messages of unity or anything. If you're worried about a slippery slope, I hate to tell you that we've been on it for a long time, now. Obviously, the future isn't set in stone, but I think it'd take one hell of an external threat to get us all to band together at this point. Maybe those UFOs we were all concerned about last year could do it?

Way better shape. The police actually arrested the traitors on the day they did the treason. What a novel fucking concept.

I don't dispute his personhood, but that doesn't imply he's believable, when his entire career has shown him not to be.

You're assuming he's doing it for moral reasons rather than trying to produce a "shocking exposé" around an emotionally and politically charged set of current events for maximum engagement.

It wouldn't surprise me if this is at least partially true, but James O'Keefe has exactly zero credibility. He has made it his life's work to produce poorly-made works of fiction, and he has the audacity to call it investigative reporting.

Still, giving Republicans the benefit of the doubt on, well, anything feels deeply immoral.

I don't know... setting conditions on when he can die seems like beggars being choosers. At this point, I'm ok with him escaping the completely ineffectual clutches of justice and just dying of whatever disorder kills him first. Him dying won't magically fix everything, of course, but I'd say it's a great fucking start.

Jesus - where do you live that 1 out of every 10 times you take mass transit, it's a harrowing affair?

Well, second biggest, anyway. White men have them beat, with 59% of them voting Trump in 2024.

True. It's only when they lose access to the program because they voted for the party that said: "I'm going to kill that program" that they go out and write pleading articles like this bullshit saying: "Wait, no - but good people like ME benefit from it! You can't kill this program!"

It's worse than that, I'm afraid. The author of the article is a woman. So not only does she not care enough about her son to vote against the party who wants to kill him... she doesn't care enough about her gender to vote against the party that wants to strip them of their rights.
