This should have been fixed in the 1800s when Andrew Jackson defied the Supreme Court, but it was ignored and here we are

On par form his last time in office. Speeding up the rate of executions is a very weird policy point.

It's like not standing for anything and sacrificing your party's morals in the name of "compromise" isn't a solid strategy

I'm hopeful this will all lead to America's farmers breaking from the republican party.

I fear american farmers will go bankrupt and all their land will be bought by corporations.

Honestly same. I haven't spoken with my dad in months thanks to his MAGA views. I blame this "fuck you I got mine" as a result of community destruction

Let's not be unreasonable, there can be multiple causes and multiple solutions.

Those countries also used to have a more communal structure amongst families and that still was dismantled.

But they actually implemented social programs and living wages making it not an issue.

Also yes it is capitalism fault. It all is, including the dismantling of our communities to favor more isolated living. It's design to separate us and disempower the worker.

That probably explains the censorship crackdowns

I'd blame a lot of this on the destruction of our communal living patterns. We used to live in extended family groups. It was reasonable and expected to live with your parents and siblings. If you did leave the family home it often was just to build a home on the same property.

But then the idea of the nuclear family was popularized, probably to make more money and sell house, and here we are.

To be clear since what I said has been immediately misinterpreted, family centric living patterns were torn apart by capitalism. It heavily favors capitalism when we are separated from each other and lose community. This wasn't a benign social shift
