To take it further - cities and towns. Most cities have a fairly dull color palette (browns and greys). There are of course exceptions to this but most people live in very bland, non-offensive environments from cars, to clothing, to the houses and office buildings where they live and work.

I've always wondered why humans both love color and are scared of it at the same time?

History shows us that you can safely assume Trump is lying when he says something ~~will be good for the Amrican people. Full stop.~~

FTFY

I seem to remember a story from trumps first term that there was a few hundred children that went missing from their detention centers and ICE didn't have a clue as to where they went.

Did this happen? And was there any follow up?

Because if it's true then ICE has been at the very least turning a blind eye towards human trafficking for years.

Another data point (if you needed one) that republicans and billionaires only give a shit about something when it affects them personally.

Illegal deportations - not their problem

threats to journalists - not their problem

dehumanizing specific groups of people - not their problem

thousands of federal employees losing their jobs overnight - not their problem

defying constitutional amendments - not their problem

Fuck with their ability to hoard more money - Shit we need to do something!

Its right up there with the bumper stickers I saw that said "I want MY country back!"

Guess the race, gender and age of the driver of that car - Bonus points to guess the type and design on the cap they were wearing.

When you don't have a solid social safety net, 30+ years of indoctrination of "individualism good, family and friend support bad", a medical system that is built for profit and generations of both subtle and obvious propaganda that the more money you have the better of a person you are, I can understand why people protect their small stack of chips.

well, it's been a quick and painful way to educate the American population on specific economic theories and topics

shifting to the right instead of listening to the massive calls for more progressive policies

My thought is that the center-right Democrats that hold power in the federal government saw what happened to the center-right Republicans when MAGA took over, the centrist lost power to the more right leaning politicians. If the centrist Democrats do the same they will lose power as well. So their strategy has been to ignore and undermine the more left leaning policies and candidates so they can stay in power longer.

Just the opposite.

With the potential of medical expenses rising, medication costs going up, insurance becoming shittier (if you'll be able to afford it at all), staying healthy to continue to earn a paycheck (that is a depressing phrase), the potential of wide spread violence, I think its imperative to be as healthy and strong as you can be.

You may also find yourself in a position where you're the only one you can count on and if you are sickly, and weak then it will make things that much worse. Or you may find yourself in a position to help someone that has less ability to move and you'll need to be in good health for their sake.

I think that most billionaires are clueless to how savagely hated they are by the larger population.

I've always thought that most trump supporters just projected what they wanted trump to be on to him and trump never corrected them. Why would he?

so it's no surprise to hear these regrets because their false images of him are cracking and they don't know what to do.

This is a realization that I've come to:

that humans survive (and thrive) when there is a genuine organization based in part on empathy. When a human tries to disrupt this organization for their own gain then it's in the best interest of the group to ostracize and remove that human from the group.
