NATO is liberal and that comes with all of the problems of liberals but in what ways has it functioned as a fascist organisation?

Working as intended then, because it was never about savings.

I was reading that the backlash in the town halls and elsewhere is providing room in the eyes of those with power to lose like CBS and politicians to be more forceful in their opposition to Trump's dictatorship-in-the-making.

Macron really going out of his way to fuck over the French people, eh? Calls snap elections right after the far right wins big in eu elections, then refuses to follow the will of the people when said election backfires.

Part of my thinks the left will be better off in opposition, though.

"Cmon, can't we all just hate queers in peace, together?"

 

From the article, my emphasis added:

"Bills targeting the LGBTQ+ community remained stagnant for the initial months of North Carolina's legislative cycle. However, the landscape shifted when Democratic Representative Tricia Cotham, elected from a district which voted for her,** a Democrat, by +19points, switched to the Republican party**. This gave the GOP the crucial 72 votes required to override a governor's veto. Subsequently, these bills were promptly slated for hearings and aggressively advanced by the state's Republican leadership."

The idea that because it's not flesh and blood, it's not a vital organ, seems to becoming increasingly outdated as it was clear that this woman's life was transformed in a way that enabled her to be more "normal" (there's probably a much nicer way to say that but I'm blanking.)

Removing it should be treated the same as ripping a prosthetic limb away from a patient.

 

Sure, updating patients rights would help but how fucked is it that our system allows this by default in the first placd?
