Mubarak had been dominating the county since the 1980s. The 2011 to 2013 period was a brief period of not-dictatorship

Plenty

I can’t find this quote anywhere in here.

Self-belief

Doesn’t settle disputes

This would be funnier if Egypt was a democracy and not a horrifying dictatorship

Anarchists are saying lawyering made rulers ruler.

Wait, what?

Which Anarchist has ever said this?

Morality existed far longer than laws and court.

Morality without consensus, which leads to conflict and violence

Your Republican party is destroying the federal government.

What has the federal government been up to recently?

Rationing Motor Oil

During a Climate Crisis

GOOD

Idiocracy was an optimistic look into our future. At the very least they were actually trying to fix their problems and willing to listen

There’s an implicit criticism in Idiocracy of “Smart” people. Specifically, of institutionalized and bureaucratized forms of tracking and grading intelligence.

The movie kicks off with a bunch of ostensibly smart people doing a bunch of stupid shit - putting careers ahead of family, turning the military into a status symbol, prioritizing asthetics (curing baldness) over real human health. It’s implied that the human response to declining intelligence is to build a supercomputer that outsources all our thinking from us.

If we’re living in anything, it’s the prequel to Idiocracy.

No. Idiocracy was funny.

Anyone can die

But it takes a special kind of person to become the victim of gun violence while publicly defending gun violence.

No idea why this is being downvoted.

The underlying theory behind The Holocaust, chattle slavery, and segregation was the upholding of property rights. @im_fine_sandy@nord.pub has the problem dead to rights. Holding property above people consistently leads to hypercriminalization of the underclass.

Who has the right to live?

The spider, which subsists on it’s prey? Or the fly, stuck in the spider’s web?

The US is a global hegemon.

Meghan Markle would be popular with non-Whites.

Saying shit like this is what makes so many people disgusted with the Monarchy

If people brought their tv to every event and outing ever I’d have the same criticism

Just make cell phones heavier.

Problem solved

They’re losing the race, but they’re also chronic liars and cheats. You know they’ll just keep doing what they’re doing, while insisting every other model needs to be outlawed for breaking laws they aren’t bound by.

I think those people got the message and we’re just being freaks

Police sought and found Jarques Ratliff, 51, who is Black, and arrested him when they encountered him walking on the street, authorities said on Friday.

…

Ratliff also did not appear in Hinds county jail records on Saturday. It couldn’t immediately be determined if he had a lawyer, and a message was left for the public defender’s office.

…

Spivey said police did not share a motive or whether DNA led them to the arrest. Spivey said she did not know the man who had been arrested, but she was asking her daughter’s friends if they knew him

Sounds like they found a homeless person to absorb the blame.

Biden’s Department of Labor reopened the issue and proposed a rule at the end of August that would push up that cutoff by nearly $20,000 — to $55,000. The draft regulation, which still needs to be finalized
