Well, it's seizing it for the capital class. Doesn't that count?

The lines between corporate America, the American government, and organized crime are thin to non-existent.

Shit! I just paid for a vassecectomy!

Cities hosting the WC almost never recoup their investments. Sure, it's a windfall for a select few, but it is a bad investment for everyone else.

I'll do it. After all, I can't possibly fuck it up worse than the last guy.

It's not often that the most privacy conscious choice is also the most reliable, easy to use, and flexible option for something, but Home Assistant checks all the boxes.

When is Harris' anti-oligarchy rally? Obama's? LOL, Pelosi's? Why the fuck does this one guy who should be retiring on a beach somewhere have to keep dragging the entire Democratic party? I love Bernie, but it's beyond pathetic that after all these years it's still his job.

The one silver lining is that Trump voters are about to face reality in a way would never otherwise have to deal with. I really wish that took the edge off, but it really doesn't. The impacts of this election will be horrific to everyone, even those who will profit in the short term from the graft and corruption.

Anybody that the Republicans put in charge of any federal agency is there for the purpose of destroying that agency. I used to think defense was an exception but, given Republican's new found love for Russia, I don't think that can be assumed any longer.

If humanity were proactive enough to do this, then we wouldn't need to do it at all.

he said he wouldnt drop out unless "lord god" told him too.

I don't think that's exactly a fair characterization. He was being given a list of one person after another with "what if X asked you to drop out?". It would be complete idiocy for him to say yes to any of that. So, he used the "lord God" expression to make it clear that his answer wasn't going to change. Whether or not he is open to dropping out, he's not going to nod in that direction publicly unless he's already decided to do it. Frankly, it was a dumb line of questioning.

I agree that it's frustrating that Democrats use shitty Republicans as an excuse to be just a tiny bit less shitty. However, it's getting really annoying that you can't criticize Trump without someone chiming in with "whadabout Biden?!" and you can't criticize Biden without getting a "whadabout Trump?!"
