“How many unborn children would die?” is something you do not hear Republicans ask in response to this, curiously.

Republicans say they hate communists. So why do they like Donald Trump?
Trump supporters may be surprised to learn the state takeover of means of production is not driven by the left

Challenge your assumptions! Today, it is liberals playing the part of conservatives: fighting to protect the established order (democracy, open society, individuals liberties) from destruction by far-right revolutionaries. View my own: unexemptional.substack.com/p/liberals-a...

Reminds me of a story (surely apocyphal) of an astronomy professor lecturing that an expanding sun will swallow the Earth in 5 billion years. A distressed woman in the audience blurts out: did you say 5 million or 5 billion? The professor clarifies 5 billion. She says 'phew' and sits back down.

There’s no fucking way in hell that MLB HQ is going to allow the Braves, Padres or Brewers to prevent the Dodger$ from going to the World Series again.

I wish for this too but it's not going to happen. MLB has allowed the Dodger$$$ to become too $$$$. Which is why I barely follow baseball anymore.

I find it depressing that we're arguing over whether or not LLMs qualify as "conscious beings" when countless non-human animals clearly qualify as such and yet we continue to inflict needless pain and cruelty upon them.

What U.S. president would call a foreign leader a “son of a bitch,” “bad guy” and “fucking liar” but then do everything he asks
including sending $23 billion in military aid, providing political cover, and protecting him from accountability under international justice mechanisms?

Right. The Impunity Agenda knows no temporal bounds. They need to retroactively exonerate past abuse of Executive authority to justify ongoing abuses. Very clear why they're doing this.
