Dictatorship and fascism aren’t synonyms.

I can agree with that, but it is a very different thing than saying there is controlled opposition.

So he’s going to sue the shit out of the government, right?

It makes no sense to spend on both parties. They would get more corporate welfare if they spent for Republicans every time.

And why would Democrats participate in such a conspiracy willingly? You really believe that none of them would spill the beans? It’s just not realistic.

It’s really absurd that corporations keep pretending that infinitely replicable digital products should work the same as physical objects.

This is simply a conspiracy theory that falls apart if you think for even a second. Do you think corporations would spend billions to influence elections if the results didn’t matter?

Like God said to Bender in Futurama “When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all”. I propose calling this Bender’s Paradox.

Meanwhile New Mexico has the highest property crime rate and the second highest violent crime rate per capita.

My dad was on an aircraft carrier when he served. One of his favorite stories to tell was when his ship was riding out a hurricane and fishing trawlers couldn’t get into port to unload their catch. The trawlers sold the ship for next to nothing tons of the biggest shrimp they had ever seen. It took 3-4 bites to eat each shrimp. The sailors stuffed themselves on shrimp for the next week.

You are the one who compared drag shows to smoking. I was simply pointing out that such a comparison is flawed.

Edit: actually one way drag shows and smoking are the same is that they are only available to consenting adults who are free to do what they choose regardless of others opinions on what is best for them.

If so it should be easy for you to prove I am wrong. Go ahead. Cite your sources that drag shows kill people.

There is no disagreement with objective facts. Nobody ever died from attending drag shows.

“Second hand smoke” is the smoke inhaled by people nearby a smoker. This has been found to be nearly as harmful as smoking. This means that parents who smoke around their children are harming them.

I sarcastically joked about “second hand drag shows”. There is obviously no such thing. If someone goes to a drag show, it doesn’t harm other people. This means your comparison between smoking and drag shows doesn’t work at all.

If we are applying it to the US, I would say Native Americans. Originally, this law was because land could only be leased for at most 50 years. It could not be sold. That feels appropriate since most , if not all, Native American groups didn’t consider the land to be something that could be owned.

Okay, fine. But you have to do all of it. That means nobody can change more than 10% interest and there has to be a jubilee every 50 years where all debts are forgiven and all land is returned to its original owner.

There is no such thing as “second hand drag shows”.

This is a quick snapshot from the same article. Republicans are attempting to buy the midterms.

It’s kind of remarkable that an elected official can knowingly and openly violate the Constitution without there being some branch of the federal law enforcement arresting them.

IIRC female genital mutilation became federally legal in the US due to a Michigan court case decided by a Trump district judge. That was during the first term and I haven’t kept track to see if they made it illegal again.

The Constitution supercedes state law.
