There are two types of people who do back ups:

• the paranoid
• the experienced

Tbf, they can still be in uniform and it can be a kidnapping.

Qualified immunity notwithstanding.

The sad thing is that corporations have more rights (quantitatively) than humans.

• Can offset tax liability through complex structures
• While they cannot vote, they can effectively hide their identity behind Super PACs
• Any criminal liability results in fines, never jail time for anyone in charge
• in fact, all corporate executives benefit from liability shield, so long as their actions can be tied back to benefit the company in any way
• Can own just about anything a human can own, with the added benefit that they belong to the company. Digital rights (e.g. books, movies, etc.) legally belong to an entity that cannot die.

Never heard of pixelfed and I've been holding off on joining Instagram.

Thanks to the Streisand effect, I now have a new app to try.

I know it's a meme but it's pretty good.

The segment was good but you fucking with them still wastes their time so they don't scam someone else who would be less diligent. It's still good to waste their time. It just sucks that late stage capitalism is forcing them to do the job.

They're not going to survive

Are you kidding me?

Alexander Bell stole the telephone.

Edison regularly stole inventions from Tesla among others.

Steve Jobs fucking mind raped Woz.

The American Dream is taking someone else's hard work and profiting off of it.

This exactly. His base fully believes the story that immigrants are voting illegally, so he sets up very challenging rules to register to vote, making it time consuming and prohibitive.

The law is then used to suppress votes in districts that vote against the GOP.

At that price, Five Guys.

It may have started as falling for a conman. But at a certain point, you have to ask yourself at what point is each individual responsible for his threats to democracy.

You either are a willing and active participant or you are willfully ignorant.

I've met people on both sides of that spectrum and I'll tell you right now, they no longer can claim they fell to his con.

Only that the "let's" is referring to only Democrats. Republican/alt-right people will continue to use violent rhetoric.

You know what they call law students that are at the bottom of the class?

Lawyers.
