@1mediaoutlaw@sophaller This is the state utility company threatening eminent domain to service energy, not a data center itself, same as would be for a factory or any other manufacturing business that needed energy. Your other example of an actual data center was a financial OFFER not eminent domain.
@1mediaoutlaw@sophaller Listen dummy, enacting eminent domain for the purposes of building data centers isn’t a thing, it has actually only been deployed to frustrate the development of data centers (see Nashville). Again, try to be less gullible.

@ZaidJilani The Senate is embedded in the Constitution and (requiring approval from all states to even remove) and a fundamental part of the system of checks and balances (the people, the states, the federal, and judicial). This cavalier ignorance of that represents a failure of civics…
@UpdatingOnRome@sophaller I hate to say Sophie is getting paid by proxies of China to spread this nonsense but Sophie is probably getting paid to post this nonsense by proxies of China
@1mediaoutlaw@sophaller Around 224 acres are currently used by data centers meanwhile there is over 900 million arable acreage in the US, try to be less gullible…
@AlexDewmont987@gkingsventures Your “at the time” statement was wrong as neither owned slaves when Grant defeated Lee (4/9/1865), although he fought it in court Lee was forced by decree of the will to free his slaves in early 1863, Grant himself freed the slaves inherited from his father in laws estate in 1859
@kiros_tedd63667@thedarkhorsepod Ya, he says “I’ve thought about this”, and I thought I believe that because it looks like you dressed yourself up with a toupee…
