This was my thought. When he invades Iceland everyone will reference the part of this speech about use of force and realize it only applied to Greenland.

This. Corporations on paper should have consequences like a person. In practice, they can do whatever they want, because the US Government worships capitalism. More so than the people.

I felt like I agreed with the title, but the logic in the explanation doesn’t hold up for me. I don’t think analog or digital are more resistant to various things that may happen – both are susceptible to their own things.

Where I do agree: I can hold a vinyl record in my hand, and it’s MY copy. Mine has a scratch that makes that noise on track 2. The crackle is specific to mine. It is unique in a way that the Spotify equivalent isn’t.

But put that record in the wrong spot, it’ll warp. Everything dies, just in a different way.

PSA: I am not suggesting equivalence. I’ll take analog all day long and it shocks me that people are willing to pay over and over again to access the same content with digital streaming. But yeah, can’t get behind the logic in the post.

Citizens United was a tipping point. If corporations are people and can give without limit to political campaigns, then only corporate choices will win. The others won’t even make the ballot. It is 100% a fix.

Was there democracy before Citizens United? Maybe. Certainly more than now.

A better question is how many more leopards need to eat faces before ANY Republicans grow either a brain or a spine.

I think it’s an astronomical number. Bigly.

I would never have guessed that WWIII would have started over Greenland.

Punk AF.

Not even the tiniest of violins for this one. I hope these bootlickers live in fear for the rest of their lives.

They are a good example that simply being human does not necessarily give you humanity, and they should all be absolutely ashamed.

Jokes on them, my kink is being left alone by absolutely everyone

Peggle. As a grown ass person I still play it at least once every couple of weeks. Stupid fun when you don’t want to pay too much attention.

This this this. Show me a conservative that a) can understand that different people are affected by different things at different times, b) that people in government need to accept (a), and c) that they aren’t the main character, and I’ll show you Half Life 3.

They literally control all the government. And they still couldn’t govern.

If the roles were reversed, I can’t even imagine the right wing media backlash.

Most times I listen to records.

For digital music, I have a local collection. I copy chunks of it to my phone periodically for remote listening.

Making people pay over and over again for the same product is the greatest trick businesses ever pulled.

Clearly he’s saying “Trump stop”, another crazy lefty /s

I mean. It does make me feel better knowing I’m not actually alone.

Ah yes, of course, Donald Trump, president of Israel

And? Laws don’t matter to these people.

When there are consequences for a law being broken by these folks, report that.

In linguistics this is called “code switching”, and it is extremely common among native bilinguals.

Meanwhile, the president says he “couldn’t care less” about uniting America
