People do die 30 years earlier because they’re black - thats often how racism works…
Imo how do we know what “normal” is and has that been the case for the last 1000 years? The Japanese have employed sumo wrestlers to serve in a sport, for instance. I think its fair to say fat shaming is a more modern phenomena that’s occurred more recently as high calorie low nutrition food became mass produced and microplastics have accumulated in all our bodies.
techically the US is like 99% immigrants
some republican would have won in 2020, for sure; trump or somebody worse
the easiest way to fix the courts is to appoint “all american citizens of voting age currently and any future citizen when they reach voting age” to the court - this means presidents would simply no longer be appointing people to the court. The current justices could still write opinions they would just be nonbinding without a vote of the public.
I hate this timeline.
Would be a shame Dark Brandon used his newfound powers to execute the supreme court for treason.
weird that the constitution says nothing about “immunity” but the courts keep creating various forms of it. Its almost like we explicitly need an amendment that says courts are not allowed to declare things “immune” from the law.
Wrong, this is the elon musk complaint forum. Always has been
That won’t be enough, but its a good start
Boeing says those capsules are just fine, its just a little leak, bro.
The advertising ouroboros continues to devour itself
Him getting JFK’d isn’t an impossibility. Sad thing to wish for, though. I feel like Biden actually has good intentions here, I’d like him to just retire in peace. Democrats in congress could oust him as unfit under the 25th amendment and it would probably work whether the republicans join or not.
that would 100% lose the election for democrats if party insiders handpick the candidate instead of voters. A better strategy would be to pickup a half decent VP that can do a debate and then resign after election
Yu zunk my buttlezhip!
I’m pretty sure Trump said he wanted extra genocide so its:
Pro-Genocide Felon vs Slightly less but still pro genocide.
Its that old thought experiment:
You run into two presidents one cannot tell the truth and will mostly only respond to comments about himself while the other often mumbles incoherently but occasionally says “the idea, you’d lie about this”
You need to know how fuck to get out of here. There is no exit.
pretty sure 3 out 10 americans believe they’ve met a demon or space alien
you could just, idk, fine job listings that are up too long without a hire.
Too long being like 1 yr
No, I was correcting YOUR comparison. I think shaming racists is quite good, while shaming fat people is misguided.
The point here is that our value judgements about health aren’t medical or scientific. Risky behavior isn’t universally frowned upon by society. Often its encouraged.
In the US, for instance, automobile accidents are a lead cause of death for people under 35, yet we don’t treat driving with the same disdain as smoking or obesity. As far as “lack of physical activity” goes, car accidents represent a major source of injuries, which do make people less able to keep up healthy lifestyles. Yet again, little disdain.
Smoking is a great comparison here, because if you want to take the medical literature seriously you can’t just handle it from the consumer end, you also have to deal with industries that employ swaths of food scientists to make bad food addictive and cheap.
All in all, I do think we could benefit from thinking about why we shame people for things and ask ourselves if we’re applying these judgements in a consistent way.
