So while that is a fun fantasy, and let's say it's even plausible. What do you do afterward? Do you execute the police officers in the street? Do you ship them to a re-education camp set up by the fifth column in the foot hills of the rockies? How long do you keep up the charade? Parallel Systems of support are needed to fight a fascist government, not just a bunch of larpers on an afternoon.

Do "red states" not have a proletariat?

Why? He's been back stabbing and sidelining since he got to be a victim and his pro-cop cause sucks a lot. If Bloomberg paid his PAC a few million to endorse the political equivalent of Pelosi, you bet your ass he'll do that.

Thank you, Lemmy is looking like a slippery slope back into Reddit today with everyone just screaming at the headlines without knowing the full stories or context.

Have you read the article? You should it pretty short, and the Headline absolutely gets it right.

What she’s saying is to use the word “kings” instead of “oligarchy”. Which I get. Sure - do that. Makes sense. Same argument, same vitriol, more punch.

Still don't agree with that. Oligarchy is a very specific thing that we are currently living in. We don't have a king, not even by the most new-speak of definitions.

Detailing her plan, Slotkin – a former analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)

Also hard pass. The CIA should be shuttered they will never be able to provide solution to the problems of capitalism, because their number one goal is to secure "US Interests Abroad" meaning, prop up the oligarchy.

Killing billionaires isn't on the list, I question the objectivity and truthfulness of this piece.

The more I hear about billionaires losing billion's the more I appreciate the tariffs.

Partitioning is one of those obsolete Unixisms that is best left in the 90s. Only exception is dual booting, but even there partitioning isn't really very important anymore

Dams are extremely ecologically disruptive and generally shouldn't be considered part of "green" infrastructure. Not that small scale dams don't have a place in good environmental stewardship, but a good way to tell if someone advocating for "green energy" is full of shit, is their position on hydro-power. That said even ignoring the downstream international impact of this dam, the consequences of "the largest dam" in the world cannot be ignored if you want to pretend to care about the climate, which includes river ecology.

Breaking news the Capitalist party (D) still using racism to protect capitalism. Next up, the Capitalist party (R) says a bunch of racist shit.

Or maybe stop using fossil fuels? The best time was 20 years ago, the second best time is now.

A bargain at twice the price.

"Revenue: US$202.8b (up 4.1% from FY 2023).

Net income: US$17.7b (down 17% from FY 2023).

Profit margin: 8.7% (down from 11% in FY 2023). The decrease in margin was driven by higher expenses. "

Plus they won't even end up paying that much.

I swear the UK is as dystopian as the US and even worse in a lot of ways.

It literally always has been and that fact is why the US even exists.

GMI is literally the cheapest way to solve poverty in America, and no-one is even pretending to care.

Sure, but they are radiation sources and beyond microwaves, "nuclear" material exists in several consumer products, so that isn't really a reason we haven't had consumer nuclear batteries.

Stock prices are a reactionary and misleading indicator about the efficacy of any given policy, and should certainly be ignored when evaluating the actual effect a tariff has.

You mean like Microwaves? Or Smoke detectors? Granite countertops etc. Or watches, and Energy Efficient CFLs?

Good. Now that we are here, I hope trump causes the complete fall of American Capitalism along with American world influence. We haven't been worthy of our position since the late 40's, if we ever were.

That university had no business banning those words and ideally the people who came up with the banned words would be guillotined. Because if you don't nip thought policing in the bud, you end up with what the current administration is doing in an official capacity. Then the next step is the subject of various over referenced books and dystopian fictional stories except real.

What's the difference between a "women's" sports bar and a sports bar? Seems like a pointlessly gendered classification.
