Bret what I'm getting from this is if the choice was "execute you immediately" or "put you in a cage for the rest of your life" you would pick the cage. And be happy about it, because lesser evil I say lets try it!
It turns out that choosing the lesser of two evils is, in fact, a moral imperative. And some folks want to wait for the Revolutionary Perfect, but I would equally challenge them to demonstrate a single time where a 'start from nothing, year-0' revolution has turned out well for most people.
In the past they were referred to as "civil rights activists" or "gay marriage activists" or "anti apartheid activists" or "slavery abolitionists" They won so decisively you are able to ignore what their work looked like and instead cry for multiple days about it and call it disrespectful
we need a term for the annoying thing people do where they get mad when a candidate for national office doesn't espouse a position that has like 5% favorability and might take multiple lifetimes to achieve. sorry to be a product of my raising again but i think it's disrespectful

This guy loves ICE, cops, the IDF and two Trump presidencies. I also like "this isn't what happened. okay it is what happened but pretend 2024 turned out differently then what". Congrats on getting what you wanted!
"4 years maintaining what Trump did as liberals go back to brunch" isn't what happened. It wasn't what would have happened if 2024 turned out differently. At some point you have to really ask yourself whether your worldview is being fed nutrients or something else.

I needed to keep quiet about this but this is what I was working on earlier this year. My publication “Harming Children: The Effects of the UK puberty-blocker ban” was evidence used for this! I had to submit a lengthy affidavit via NZ local trans group PATHA. Let’s hope we can overturn more now.

Really notable how much the Biden admin let themselves get ratfucked by the industries they had the power to investigate and regulate. The tech and elon musk industry is the really big one but there are a lot of stories like this
“For years, economists dismissed corporate collusion as crankery and blamed bird flu for high prices. Then the feds found evidence that could prove the cranks right, and almost nobody noticed.” www.politico.com/news/magazin...
