  • Incompatible if unchecked and it definitely shouldn’t be running it, it shouldn’t be the singular pillar, it shouldn’t be a way to gauge who is more free than others. It should be a part of an economic system if anything, not the entire point of one. Unfortunately we have a bunch of mentally ill members of our species who hold it up as some magical end all be all, even despite warnings from various ancient cultures about how bad that turns out when you do that.


  • I figure it’s why their brands of Christianity are so popular despite losing ground with younger generations, because they don’t have to admit they’re wrong about their faith if it turns out to not be truth, they’re just dead. It doesn’t matter to them if they fucked everyone and everything over with their beliefs, cause they’re gone and their wake of destruction doesn’t follow them personally. No need to be embarrassed and pretend you never believed it.


  • The something something is that they’re very open to and easily swayed by propaganda due to the nature of their belief systems and they genuinely thought democrats were the primary group susceptible to damage from Epstein revelations and investigations, prosecutions, but once it dawned on them that they were conned by the con man they sent to harm people they dislike, they got embarrassed and decided to move on to the next talking point they were handed. The problem is republicans don’t have great and convincing talking points at present that don’t point back at them in negative lights, so they are sticking to the old cultural warfare battles like trans, communism, gays, think of the children, Muslims, etc, but the economy has collapsed so hard already that their core base can’t ignore it and just parrot those cultural talking points while enjoying poverty that mostly affects their enemies and only somewhat their own lives.









  • Yes, but the Supreme Court ruled that historical preservation groups don’t have standing to sue when the president illegally tears down a building and builds whatever he wants on top of the ruins without congressional approval or appropriation, and that congress may have standing to sue, but that means no lawsuits would stop a president as long as said president had a compliant, agreeable, or inept congress in power, you’d have to wait until an opposing party or congress gets elected to stop illegal acts by the president… which seems… not what the founders intended or set up.
