I'm pretty sure this isn't the first red flag but if she don't see this as a red flag and get the fuck out of dodge, I worry for her safety.

Profound truth. Spoken, not found on his laptop. Hope Dems are listening to Progressives, not lobbyists.

How you know this has nothing to do with the fetus is the fact that the rapist has any rights to the child. Rapists should have no rights towards the child at any point. Rape should void any and all rights.

Corporations routinely damage property, steal wages and property, destroy ecosystems and human lives. All they get is a stern verbal condemnation, a small fine and another tax break. Burning a warehouse down hurts but it ain't enough. We need real accountability for Corporations.

Generally it's never good to celebrate or excuse violence. However, when you consider violence against corporations that are responsible for the most amount of violence the recent actions against them can be justified. When you think about corporate crimes against humanity, they are rarely punished

NC Dems need to do a better job in Rural America in general but especially rural parts outside of the city centers because they're more likely to vote for Dems.

Primaries are for choosing the candidate you want. The general is for deciding who you want to fight. You want to fight the candidate that agrees with you the most.

I didn't say it was perfect but it's objectively doing better than most of the country when it comes to housing affordability. I don't think there's hardly anyone making minimum wage. Even McDonald's workers are making $15 here. Not enough, but the federal minimum wage isn't common.

You actually can. I live in the Charlotte Metro area. They're building a lot just to keep up with the growing demand. Our rents are amongst the lowest and most stable in the country. It's not just how much you build, but how you build. Density is key.

It's our job as Progressives at this point to have Progressive candidates available at every primary in 2026 and 2028. We need to be seen as doers. We need to be seen as the people that gets shit done so that we can dominate primaries and the general.

I don't know anything about Turkey. I just found a fallacy that you're engaging in called the "Packaged Deal Fallacy." Just because someone, in this case Mosler, agrees with 1 thing, that means he agrees with everything they do. If that was the case, Mosler would be a Biden & Trump supporter.
100
Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 03/01/2026
You're being disingenuous. Mosley liked 1 thing they did. He did not co-sign the entire regime. Again they didn't try MMT. In fact, they didn't even follow the directions of the World Bank. It doesn't matter what your system is, if you fuck you agriculture you're guaranteed to fail.

Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 03/01/2026
Luckily Im not doing that fallacy. Sri Lanka did not follow MMT. Just because Mosler liked 1 thing they did does mean he likes everything they did, nor does it make that thing they did MMT. Just because someone claims they're doing something doesn't mean they're actually doing it.

Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 03/01/2026
They destroyed their agricultural capacity by switching over to an organic system too fast instead of phasing it out. Their primary issue was really the fact that their leadership was a family government where the only way to get into the government is to be in the family or marry in.

Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 03/01/2026
Yes every nation has debt. Mosley praised them for cutting their foreign debt but if ny memory is correct they did start borrowing in foreign currency again. Regardless, if you actually understand MMT you would know it takes more than bad fiscal policy to fuck up an economy.

Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 03/01/2026
They didn't do MMT. I know they said they did. But they took debt from outside of their own currency. By definition of MMT they didn't do MMT. They even had conversations with Fadhel Kaboub and he said they didn't do anything he told them to do.

No, the Oligarchy is the problem. Traditional econ that only serves to move money to the top is the problem. MMT isn't even big enough to case any problems.

Government shouldn't be in the business of making people wealthy. Government should be in the business of running society as equitably as possible. What we have now is a wealthy model thst funnels to the top. I don't know if we should have any policies that concerns itself with making people wealthy

Swapping energy sources is the easy part. What's hard is building the housing we need. Adding extras like ev charging station and solar panels to an affordable housing building is unnecessary and makes housing more expensive to build. Build the housing first, add the extras later.

Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 12/10/2025
They don't need to. All cities could be fueled by the most polluting sources known to man. Them powering dense housing and other urbanist infrastructure would counteract the emissions and would use less energy than adding these milestones. We can fix all that after the infrastructure is built.

The importance of a kitchen when you're traveling is key to reduce costs. You can't save money at a hotel, extended stays with kitchens allows you to save on eating out. Airbnb's give people that ability. Unfortunately, I agree most people are just using it because they don't like being in hotels.
000
Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 12/10/2025
I think it's depends. If you're staying some place for a day or 2, a hotel is more than enough. The reality is we don't have enough extended stay housing. When people travel, the cheapest hole in the wall hotel/motel is $50 a day. For a month that's basically rent prices.

Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 12/10/2025
If we are serious about climate change, reducing CO2 is the metric we are using. Even if we don't change how we build new housing, simply building more housing in high density reduces emissions. So at the worst, we're hitting multiple birds with one stone with no change in materials or energy use.
020
Da Trill Progressive @datrillprogressive.bsky.social · 12/10/2025
They are connected. A lot of our energy needs is influenced by our housing. Low density developments require and use more energy than high density developments. Not to mention regulation and housing norms prevent energy efficient housing impossible or expensive to build.

They did. The difference is that flexible screens are a relatively new technology that developers are trying to understand and improve their applications for. There's literally nothing new about a new iPhone. Their software is basic, barely any AI tech, but they're charging you premium prices.

Who does she think she's impressing with that disaster? I hope the EV think is just for the pipes and not the full charger. Getting the pipes ran is great for future proofing while keeping costs down. Paying day is always cheaper than tomorrow. But poor people can't afford EVs yet.

I generally don't know enough about Powell, but being in the MMT space, I don't agree with some of the policies I can understand. But the way Powell does everything he can to respectfully show Trump he doesn't respect him or his power will forever get my respect. Powell has zero fucks to give. Lol
