@SaltyGoat17 Wait... lemme get this straight... you think Trump knows what he's talking about? If you're looking for brain-dead morons... check out the nearest mirror, my friend.
Historic wildfires are tearing through Turkey fueled by heatwaves and megawinds. 70+ blazes. 13 dead. Multiple thousands evacuated.
No time to wait. #ActOnClimate#climate#energy#renewables
Thank you, San Antonio, for peacefully assembling to demonstrate your righteous frustration with a federal administration that continues to ignore the fact that this nation is a democracy.
We showed the very best of our community today.
Looks familiar?
1. Concentration of power: Authoritarian governments are characterized by a centralized power structure where decisions are made by a single leader or a small group of individuals.
2. Lack of political pluralism: Authoritarian governments do not allow for political opposition or dissenting views, often suppressing or eliminating any opposition parties or political movements.
3. Limited civil liberties: Citizens in authoritarian regimes have restricted freedoms of expression, assembly, and association, and may be subject to censorship and surveillance by the government.
4. Control of media and information: Authoritarian governments often tightly control the media and information sources to shape public opinion and limit access to alternative viewpoints.
5. Weak rule of law: Authoritarian regimes may operate with little regard for the rule of law, allowing for arbitrary and discriminatory enforcement of laws and regulations.
6. Limited accountability: Authoritarian leaders are often not held accountable for their actions, as there is limited oversight or checks and balances on their power.
7. Use of coercion and repression: Authoritarian governments may use tactics such as censorship, propaganda, surveillance, and violence to maintain control and suppress dissent.
8. Limited political participation: Authoritarian regimes often restrict or manipulate the electoral process to ensure continued power for the ruling regime, limiting opportunities for genuine political participation by the populace.
Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch.
President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.
@cremieuxrecueil@elonmusk Bullshit. A 12-pound fetus trying to squeeze through a maternal pelvis adequate for a 7-pound baby is an example of fetopelvic disproportion. "...the regular use of Caesarean sections has reduced maternal mortality." Nothing to do with selection of brain size
@Megankstack I understand the "scapegoating" comparison. For me, it's placing the fault in an appropriate context. If it takes a village to raise a child, that's where the failure lies. I hope there's a national awakening by parents to their culpability.
