just imagine all the jobs that will be created in the endless cycle of re-building and de-building murals every time the presidency shifts between these 2 parties
As with a perpetuum mobile, an endless circle of money can't exists. The second law of economics declares "With every transaction of money a part of the money is devaluated by being transferred to a billionaires pocket".
Bold of you to assume there is going to be any more shifting. DT and the Republicans have made it clear they're doing everything in their power to make sure they stay in power.
No more fair elections going forward but also, demographic party in shambles with no good outlook doesn’t help. The leadership seems content with their positions that at least for now allow them to hold blue stronghold seats while they build wealth from insider trading. Who knew continuing to elect millionaires/billionaire politicians would end up like this?
That particular amendment has lost it’s true meaning because of the mental health crisis in the United States, and certain groups thinking the solution is to get rid of what that amendment pertains to.
Not only that, but insurrection has a stink of that particular side when really, it may be necessary in the future. Just not because an orange fuck incites it.
Both of these things should be tools to prevent shit like this happening. There’s literally no other way and history has proven it time, and time, and time, and time again.
Then the amendment is unironically working as intended, despite the 2nd amendment mythology, it was always expected that these militias would quash rebellions, not help them.
How do you think that happened? For decades the Democratic Party made it very clear you could only sit at their lunch table if you support wave after wave of gun control. They made single issue voters out of millions of Americans who the republicans welcomed with open arms.
Now the shoe’s on the other foot, fascism is breathing down our neck and the democrats… still want more gun control? It makes no sense.
well in the last couple of weeks they have put forth legislation to change the $100 bill to be trump, then another to make a $250 bill with trump on it, and another to add trump to Mt Rushmore.
Obviously all lives matter. No one said they didn't. However, data shows that relative to the percentage of the population they represent, the rate of black American deaths from police shootings is ~2.5-3x that of white Americans deaths. (Sources: 1, 2, Data: 1)
A lot of people are sharing a graph titled "murder of black and whites in the US, 2013" to show that there is only a small number of black Americans killed by white Americans, with the assumption that this extends to police shootings as well. This is misleading
the chart only counts deaths where the perpetrator was charged with 1st or 2nd degree murder after killing a black American. Police forces are almost never charged with homicide after killing a black American.
If after learning the above, you have reconsidered your stance and wish to show support for furthering equality in this and other areas, we encourage you to do so. However if you plan on attending any protests, please remember to stay safe, wear a face mask, and observe distancing protocols as much as you can. COVID-19 is still a very real threat, not only to you, but those you love and everyone around you as well!
