Have fun just leave the McDonald's breakfast crew alone

Which is why usually there was laws to prevent them from doing whatever they wanted but that's out the window.
Fear not, there's a lot of gun enthusiasts, ready to fight against tiranny!
And all they have to do is take over the Diet Coke factories. The Orange will be powerless after that.
There's a lot of gun enthusiasts, ready to fight for tyranny! - FTFY
The sad truth is that the Left could also potentially have a number of gun enthusiasts because nothing is stopping any of them from doing that, but the Democratic party has turned most leftists into pacifists who are afraid of guns and feel that impotent sign waving and finger waggling is enough.
I am surprised that its been 19 hours so far and there arent at least ten people calling you a Nazi already
This is pretty much entirely false. Gun ownership is far from non-existent on the left.
And frankly, supporting the right to own guns doesn't give you a right to demand that others do so if they choose not to.
YES
They also said we should respect Nazi free speech rights and the religious beliefs of people who disallow doctors to save their children from dying.
Honestly, if Republicans/right-wingers want to kill off their own voters by encouraging anti-intellectualism, anti-vax, etc, we should allow them to Darwin Award themselves to extinction. Fuck them; all this leftist empathy and pacifism has allowed fascists to resurge and take over nearly every government across the world.
Yeah that's really more the Constitution than anything.
I disagree wholeheartedly. The Constitution was there to serve a small population in the early years of the country. The amendments they made and why they made them have very little if anything at all to do with what radical fascist SCOTUS members claimed since then. There's been years of arguing about this already so I won't bother with it here but suffice to say that I absolutely reject the notion that violent fascist ideologues have free speech rights unless you can show me that Fox News and OAN are providing prime time slots for socialists and communists. No I do not gove one single fuck about "bUt tHeYrE pRiVaTe cOmPaNiEs!" because private companies have been publicly oppressed for opposing views.
I disagree wholeheartedly.
You shouldn't. Freedom of speech does have some limitations but not in the ways you suggest. It's an integral part of Constitution and this country.
that Fox News and OAN are providing prime time slots for socialists and communists.
Just doesn't make any sense man. Not providing an opposing view isn't a violation of free speech. People do it constantly.
Law only exists to control those lower in the hierarchy than the ones who hold ruling authority over its enforcement and interpretation.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich are no longer rich.
That's a fantasy. What we could do is stop voting the party that does things like remove healthcare coverage from 17 million people so it can give more tax cuts to billionaires.
But we insist on saying both sides are the "same" instead.
Not a great example to compare yourself to. He was actually the lying, asshole, bad guy the whole time.
He was a villain in that he was a threat to his ex-wife and child, but his position on society up until that’s revealed is spot on.
Yeah, but he killed a Nazi and a rich golfing asshole. And he got to die too, so like, win win win. Three less assholes in the world, minimum.
You telling me the street fell apart in two days?
I have literally seen that happen for many roads recently "repaired" by the poorer county to the south of mine. They don't seal them or repave them; they drop a bunch of loose gravel into the potholes which just gets thrown out after a few hours of vehicles driving over it and widens the potholes.
Never lived in South Carolina? It shows. Road functions. Barely. Then the afternoon rainstorm happens. Then the road fails. Giant pothole, sinkhole, 36 inch tree fell, it's two feet under water, road no longer exists because it was washed out, bridge suddenly missing. Happens all the time.
I used to think Hampton Roads / Tidewater was bad with its water depth markers on the edge of roads to let you know if you were about to drive your tail pipe or be completely submerged. But then I moved to Lesser Carolina. Whole new level of difficulty.
Went to a convention for the weekend. Getting back took four times as long as we had to consult every available live resource to see what roads were open and still existed. Because hurricanes are a thing that happens here.
So, in summary, fuck yes. Roads fall apart in two days.
It was a quote from Falling Down (the movie in the post) but that fucking sucks :(
Taxation becoming automated and controlled by our place of employment is exactly why it is paramount that workers own our places of employment even more so than in the past.
If we own our places of employment, we can collectively refuse to continue funding this fascist regime and utilize those funds for our own local, grass-roots initiatives.
Just want to say that employers don't actually control your withholdings. By law, you can submit a new W-4 to change your withholdings at any time. In fact, it's often built-in to HR software to make it even easier to do.
Of course, you still have to contend with the IRS come tax time if you underpay through the year.
I used to kind of be against tax evasion, after passage of the big bunch of bullshit bill I'm philosophically on the side of small time federal tax evaders. Nobody should be funding this government and its massive hand jibber program for the rich. The federal tax code has completely become a way to redistribute money upwards.
A 3rd of your household income? I pay 53% of my income plus 21% taxes on everything I buy.
Don't hate the game, hate the player.
What? No ill hate this game thanks
So you don't want taxes to pay for roads and so on?
That isn't the game being discussed.
I'm what way is it not? We pay tax money to the government. That's the game. A good government spends it on things that benefit their citizens. They are the players. These arseholes are cheating and spending it on themselves and their cronies, and ways to terrorise their enemies. The game is the same but the people playing it aren't.
But thanks to everyone for all your insults and downvotes. It's just like being on Reddit.
We are upset because of exactly what you are talking about about: the leader PLAYING A DIFFERENT GAME THAN WHAT WAS AGREED TO. The game you described is what should be played, but instead they play "how many poors can we get to eat each other today?"
People are being rude because you sound like every self confident prick in right wing circles who smuggly says "yet you live in society?" any time someone suggests improving anything.
