I think whether we like it or not economic systems have forced their way into our political systems.

And anyone with any existing power is strongly incentivized to kill any "new ideas" in the womb. As they would most likely represent a departure from the current system that they benefit from.

Any dramatic restructuring is going to be a very "significant" event. We may currently be on the precipice of one such event in the United States, this remains to be seen. The existing power structures have been significantly destabilized and pre-existing norms and rules are being outright ignored.

Power will shift, it remains to be seen how much and to where.

In any case, we may have the opportunity for you to see some new interesting governmental concepts, or perhaps a return to some classics, or a mix of the two (a little overtly capitalist fuedalism perhaps?).

We sure do live in interesting times.

Now that's some class solidarity.

One important thing for people to think about right now is "what happens when other countries don't accept deportees?"

They start to stack up. Housing, feeding, and guarding "dangerous undesirables" is expensive.

Surely, it would be patriotic to save your country money...

It might be too late. It might not, who's to say. Videos from this weekend have a very familiar ring to them though.

Common mistake. They based the movie on my life.

I learned magic then the cult followed. I meant to learn sleight of hand magic, but accidentally ended up with blood magic instead. The demons won't let me sleep, but I haven't missed a white rhino payment yet. (I wanted to go with a regular think cause who the hell wants to pay the premium, but to be honest the blood just contrasts so much better with the white rhino, it was a no brainer)

Alternatively: capitalism is working exactly as intended.

It's not all theHill's fault, there's plenty of blame to go around.

They didn't even push back against the reactionary talking points from the looks of it. The primary argument mentioned is "states' rights."

It's the same thing they've been doing with immigration, conceding every single point, until they eventually are running on "bipartisan legislation to address the issues!" That consists of all the Republican talking points from eight years ago.

The wrt54g was a workhorse, but the cooling....

Democrats hated "the gays" too until like 15 years ago.

It's the same as rainbow corporatism. It's all a facade used for political expediency. It's never actually about human rights. Both parties deserve the fates they get. Unfortunately they'll do everything they can to take us down with them.

It's cool that one bigot can do that.

Just goes to show you, don't let your dreams just be dreams.

Surely there's a library book somewhere on Russian mixology, I've always wanted to learn how they make cocktails over there.
