Everybody knows what needs to be done. Parenthood needs to be sustainable for the parents. There's just no political will to implement a policy that will only start paying off in 20+ years. Every politician kicks the can down the road, or implements half-hearted policies.
Edit: Just realised I posted this to the wrong instance comm 😅
Boss Hogg was a corrupt politician and a main character. I don't remember much beyond that. But my memory is that the Duke Boys were escaping persecution from local state actors.
Side note: I was a little kid and my friends in pre-school thought the car could fly, which broke my brain when I couldn't articulate that it jumped.
As the title says, this popped into my head while walking to my home being showered with subzero frozen rain.
Modern english is just an creole language of 5 different european languages and made super easy to mix the conflicts between those languages. Thats why its so easy to learn for most people.
My social media environment (mostly Lemmy for the last year, after I left Reddit) is very leftist. I'm finding myself floating more and more left because y'all have a point and there's not many counter-arguments in this social media environment. I sometimes wonder if that's how MAGA folks feel--floating more and more right because that's what they're surrounded by.
Of course, my floating is (naturally /s) based on reason and leftists making good memes/arguments.
Anyways, that's this morning's introspection.
Side showerthought: my convictions are based on memes. Anyone have nice, accessible resources for giving those convictions a more solid base? I'd love something like a graphic history of leftist thought (similar to Queer: A Graphic History). Something approachable but with citations. Thanks :)
