Which let’s them run the line at the next election about being tough on crime and only they are up to the task. Win win /s

Well yes, that’s literally the way Conservative governments operate, you’re catagorised as one of them if you’re in the club as a hard working ,upstanding citizen and you’re a grifter if not. They have no time for people they see as “grifters”, which is most people.

The politics of envy sees many who suffer under conservatives vote for them in the hope they too can have somone to look down upon when they are "successful "…any day now.

No it won’t, you misunderstand COP meetings.

I hope it languishes around 3-4% at most, if it does get 7%-10% enshitification inevitably ensues and it will grow more and get worse

Change needs to start at the top. Cut the greedy fuckers out of the loop and you’ll see how much waste we can reduce

Well, sort of. The top needs to change but that change won’t come from them, it has to come from the bottom. Alas it doesn’t and won’t as voters drift towards fascism looking for easy answers from the very people causing this rather then moving the political Ovrton Window and torwards more green, sustainable radical politcans that are currently sidelined by the orthodoxy.

So, about those Native Americans

I love Noddy Holders (lead singer of Slade) anecdote on on Graham Nortons show saying he was paid money in Germany multiple times to shit on a glass table while a dude was underneath.

Finally, a good news article!

Who keeps voting for this idiot? he’ll only be replaced by somone who has seen his success and do the same thing.

Probably did, this is the US, money is the solution.

Yes, 55 Percent of White Women Voted for Trump. No, I’m Not Surprised.

My dude I really appreciate your knife posts. I don’t post or ownmany but your obvious enthusiasm on the subject is amazing.

I own 1 Spyderco knife :)

Any recommendations for bushcraft style knives ? Pocket or otherwise.

Well the good citizens in The Australian state of Qld just voted in a climate denying party, and got rid off the the only two Green politcans in the state government, so I’d suggest voting for the “Leopard at my Face Party” should work out all for all of Australia, with emissions here in Aus. still increasing.

We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas.

Good, made a decision decades ago to have a vasectomy as there are way to many people in the world and misquoting Thoreau, what use a kid if no livable planet to raise them on ?

I always felt if the need to be a parent overwhelmed, I could adopt any number of abandoned kids.

I like kids but I’d fell way to guilty about having any. Not having them also let me retire at 35 and pursue my own interests, I’m now 58.

I’d suggest not, cats destroy and entire ecosystems, I’d suggest cat owners are self absorbed, entitled, narcicistic… or some combination.

Hell, there toxoplasmotic shit kills dolphins as it washes into the ocean.

Fuck my bf in the ass…

This was covered by JFK yeah ?

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”

I’m at 0, no ones done anything agresious enough to warrant it yet. I dont think they ever could, annoying is another thing entirely though, I’d block for that.

I disagree with most people most of the time, I’m a stranger in a strange land
