Or just use software that you don’t need to mod to do what you want. That’s easier.

Thank you! God it’s so annoying that liberals act like this then wonder why no one likes them.

I’ve had MLs more tolerable than the most smug liberal.

Moving the goalposts is how they justify running such a shit candidate that loved shooting herself in the foot with the silver bullets she should have aimed at Trump and his campaign. And not missed.

And codifying Roe v. Wade!

And stimulus checks every month!

And making sure COVID was managed and not ignoring it like Trump!

And ending police brutality!

And protecting LGBT rights!

And making a green new deal!

And…

It’s like Trump supporters, any facts or evidence can be dismissed with a thought terminating cliche so thoughts slide right off the smooth brained supporters.

“Did Soros pay you?” -> “Did Russia pay you?”

Yep, still have people downvote me when I say Biden is an aid to murder.

Does anyone know why Biden has the authority to do this? It seems more up to Congress to decide if a debt is forgiven overnight. “Pen and the Purse” is what my social studies said every class.

Means testing is just a poverty trap. My family personally earned a bit more money and the state of California now said “Cool, you no longer qualify for free health insurance, you gotta pay.”

And while it’s not a lot, its a few dollars a month, it has less options. Not even medical transportation in the rural area we live in.

They couldn’t arrest Bush when he invaded Iraq, they won’t arrest the entire idea of “The leaders of North America and the European Union.”

We can’t arrest Putin, we won’t get Bibi.

I think the mask truly went off in 2003. Dubya was an international terrorist in the highest office of the world.

It’s like how if some random dipshit harms someone else they go “Oh, so it’s okay to hate men? I’m a man so I’m the bad guy?”

When no, you’re the one who assalted someone. What you are doesn’t define actions.

He could be using his king powers granted by the SCOTUS to give minimum wage, the funds he promised, fully cancel student debt, keep queer protections, make abortion legal, or any of the things he said he would do but somehow was always stopped.

But he just keeps giving aid to “Literally Genocide LLC” because who cares, he’ll take that AIPAC money and run before the Trump fans start going after him.

“You can push Biden to the left once we win!”

“Murder is bad? Defend Ukraine, not Israel?”

“WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?!”

In a way, he did. Star Trek helped to break the racial barriers of 1960’s America, and inspired a generation of scientists and engineers to invent things that we use commonly today.

There was an entire generation of people who saw what Star Trek brought to the TV screen, and wanted to bring it into reality. Gene saw thousands of fans were inspired to become a better person because of an idea he had one day.

People saw an interracial kiss on screen for the first time. Some were outraged, most didn’t see a problem. Some saw a Japanese person working equally with white crewmen while Japanese-Americans still were treated like garbage and had their possessions still stripped from them.

Roddenberry intended the show to have a progressive political agenda reflective of the emerging counter-culture of the youth movement, though he was not fully forthcoming to the networks about this. He wanted Star Trek to show what humanity might develop into, if it would learn from the lessons of the past, most specifically by ending violence. An extreme example is the alien species known as the Vulcans, who had a violent past but learned to control their emotions. Roddenberry also gave Star Trek an anti-war message and depicted the United Federation of Planets as an ideal, optimistic version of the United Nations.[15] His efforts were opposed by the network because of concerns over marketability, e.g., they opposed Roddenberry’s insistence that Enterprise have a racially diverse crew.[16]

Gene didn’t live to see a post-scarcity, no violence, bigotry free society, but he inspired people to achieve it. Gene died happy with knowing he sparked an entire idea into action, some day in the future.

In the canon of Star Trek, humanity had a series of eugenics wars, wars for resources, and then capped it off with a World War 3 where the Geneva conventions were scrapped with nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons used by every world power.

The mess was still being cleaned up and the effects of hundreds of millions dead is when people went “Why did we ever hate each other? What did some dude in the African Union do to piss off some dude in the European Alliance, that pissed off some dude in China?”

And then when Zefram Cochrane used the Phoenix to test warp flight, everyone truly went “…Holy shit, we’re not alone. We can fix this for everyone.”

The recent election and 2016 say otherwise. When Biden said he’d follow Sanders’ policies, he won the biggest margins ever in American history.

Fascism is tempting for undecideds and people scared of the future. Some dude says “hey you’re hurt, I’ll help you” you might not care what the costs are as long as you feel safer.

We could have built a policy of “Everyone is hurt, everyone needs a leader, I can be a leader for those Trump is targeting.” She could have been a silver bullet to Trump’s thick skull. She could have done so many things differently than Biden or Trump, and she played to the middle ground.

And the middle ground was still pro-border protections, fracking, not listening to the marginalized people Trump hates, and how the policies could improve America at the cost of the trolley problem of Gaza. Instead we’re getting none of her promises, but Trump is getting all of his high demands for order and fascism.

We gotta, otherwise we’ll see that one team openly hates the game, and the other team is still kicking around the ball and acting like moving 10 inches solves the game from falling apart.

Colbert was satire when he just copied what Republicans were saying, with the obvious intentions of “Jesus Christ, do they even hear themselves?”

The Onion can be satire now, and when “No way to prevent this, says the only country where this happens on a regular basis.”

Probably never will. We’ll be hearing them blaming us as we shuffle in a chain gang to the concentration camps.

Vegans are more “consent” than focusing on the consumption.

Vegetarians eat honey and drink milk. Vegans don’t as they don’t feel that animals can consent to the actions being taken place on their body. It’s basically a form of “Can this animal agree to what is taking place?” question. If they can’t even answer a yes or no, then it’s a form of abuse.

Like how we consider that animals can’t consent to sexual acts. It’s wrong because we exert a force to them that they can’t even disagree with. Bestiality is obviously wrong, and I don’t think you’d find a lot of people who would disagree except those who perform it. But it’s weird that we view the killing and eating of them as normalized.

And I am saying this as someone who consumes meat. I fully acknowledge I am complicit, I just don’t defend my actions.
