The issue here being wealth inequality. A problem where the conservatives and liberals have the same solution.

There are certainly mechanisms that can change this. Step one is admitting liberalism has become a caustic ideology to the majority of Americans.

The difficulty is convincing 14m Americans of this.

I agree with this approach, most people hate politics. They either have an aversion to words like these or, use them incorrectly.

I think a very large part of educating, agitating and organizing is meeting people where they are. Once they get over their aversion, one would hope they will become class conscious.

I hope they break up google. I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I’m remaining cautiously optimistic.

I am not a German, so I appreciate you explaining that to me. As an American I’d love to say the same about our judiciary.

Oh I’m not advocating for letting them remain in a position of political influence.

I’m asking what mechanisms beyond simply banning them will need to be implemented? I’m thinking banning them is only a bandage solution.

So, for the sake of argument, if AfD is banned would they not just became a paramilitary group?

What’s to stop them from devolving into something more ‘nefarious’ if they are stripped of political power?

I just like the idea of a corrupt judge, in the US, getting primaried by a working class person. Obviously, with the correct counsil, if elected.

I want to believe those are the kinds of people this legislation is designed to support, in a perfect system.

If not, its just more fluff to jam up and backlog the beurocracy.

How it will play out is another story. Maybe Mexico will try it out.

Yeah, that sounds really nice. I work construction so almost every site is hard to reach with public transportation or, too far for biking.

My best option is to get a very fuel efficient vehicle or, a motorcycle lol

If I never had to drive again, I’d be so happy. My job requires I drive :(

So Musk decided not to leverage this influence and instead acquiesced to a foreign government for funsies.

Sounds like him.

So in your mind the possibility of Musk being extradited could lead to those colossal outcomes?

The starlink thing died yesterday but, I can’t imagine a reaction this strong from the US financial sector or MAGA.

I disagree with the intensity of this response, if it were to happen.

I’m failing to see the connection with Brazil here.

What would the backlash be from the US financial sector?

Why would MAGA be mad about the US Government extraditing an African American?

Remember that time Musk expressed that he was in favor of free speech? Then he censored content on his platform for the Turkish government?

Why would the US strain their relationship with Brazil over Musk? Politically, it makes sense to extradite him.

Also imma need a citation on how extradition works, I searched the wiki and couldn’t find anything.

I would love to know what you consider extremist political systems from the left.

It’s really a winning strategy by the left. As long as the Nazis let their fascist flag fly, the left look normal.

If you don’t confuse and scare people with ideology, I think you can meet them on a personal level.

I support moving the overton window this way.

Oof, The ultimate “this you?”.

“It’s facilitated in part by a Job Development Investment Grant from the North Carolina Department of Commerce, which gives cash grants directly to a company when it creates jobs and invests in the state.”

I wonder if this makes it kind of like, although not equivalent to, a project labor agreement. I know North Carolina is a right to work state.

It would be nice for there to be union presence on a job this large. However small the chances of that may be.
