@AkilahObviously Poverty would be eliminated in the US if the billionaires gave up just 50% of their wealth to solve it. Even the lowest billionaire would have enough for generational wealth. Alas, socialism is evil. Capitalism is sacrosanct. Preserved with bootstrap theology and meritocracy.
@kissedbythesun Dems would have once again, tried to play nice and take the high road while the GOP played like their eternal destination depended on it. MAGA is a cult wrapped in Christian clothing. Their "calling" is to dismantle Dem policies. How do you reach people in a cult?
@kissedbythesun The decline would have only been delayed. And if you thought the religious right got indignant when Obama became president, we're dealing with an even more divided nation now. Also, Dems wouldn't have noticed any of the party issues uncovered this past election.
@PoliceThePolic1 There are non-violent ways to calm kids down. It has been proven. What this video shows is that the adults don't know how to use reason and logic to de-escalate a situation with a teen. Perhaps they need to go back to basic training on de-escalation tactics with minors.
@ChildPleez007 They are required by their religion to forgive 70x7. Commanded to pray for their enemies. To turn the other cheek. To love persecution because to be persecuted for righteousness is good. They are stuck in two cults that feed off each other.
@ChildPleez007 He wasn't the root cause. He was the catalyst that exposed what was already in existence. The root cause comes from the framers and innovators of American style racism and white supremacy dividing indentured servants by race to keep them from uniting and asserting their rights.
@ImKnotTheOne Their religion requires forgiveness."70x7." It's baked in. Do something wrong? Blame it on satan or a demon. Ask for forgiveness. Wash rinse repeat.
@AkilahObviously And yet there are children among us who are hungry (preventable), homeless (preventable), or are infected with diseases because of antivaxxers (preventable). If only they applied the same zeal to fix the issues that plague those children already born.
@WTOP Would be nice if DC was actually a state. But that does sound kinda cool. A national state fair with all the trappings including the tasty state fair food.
@LqLana@jamestalarico Such an injustice for all those who were rehabilitated and wanted to contribute to society that were denied employment for having criminal records. And yet, here we are in 2026.
