Do you believe people choose to be ignorant of what they should be doing? Blaming oppressed people for being ignorant shifts blame from those with overt power and the systems they serve. Either the system is unjust because it keeps people impoverished, which includes their ability to make better decisions, or the people deserve whatever system they operate under. If this is a matter of people getting what they deserve, then the system is just.

Why does the wage worker at McDonald's deserve an even shittier life? You all think that if America gets punished they will learn their lesson.

If you really thought this you wouldn't wait. You would ambush them so that you can take more out. Y'all are just larping.

It's easier if you're not ideologically consistent, maybe we sell their labor to North Korea for some peace. But if there were ideological consistency, it would be to trade these poor souls on the block chain.

It's not even a question when we're literally fighting for due process.

When asked why such basic tasks are impractical they will say "just look at how incompetent we are!"

Well now I feel like an asshole for telling my wife it wasn't her fault for being let go.

Kind of feels like all three branches have done that. Congress isn't holding the executive or the courts to account, the court is splitting the power transfer with the executive branch to avoid being made outright irrelevant, and the executive branch is acting like a monarchy.

The wait-list for a specialized therapist can be up to 12 months. Compare that to: http://eol.law.dal.ca/?page_id=2472

The wait-list there is 90 days. I guess it's actually just 4 times easier in some situations.

But showing Trump in a casket is not a joke to these people. Their speech is worth less than free.
