Awww. Image broke. Just me, or does anyone have a reupload?

Ty for the tack on info 💜

To simplify this for my overtime working, night shift brain. The only difference it will make via donations is to the general pool if another instance is in desperate need of funding, or to sh.itjust.works if more than the annual budget is raised via donation; is that right?

I think I see some exploitation of fewer forestry service members now too.

Bless up Lemming, I’ll hit you up if things become desperate.

Deal. I stopped pledging “allegiance to the flag” over a decade ago when I realized this wasn’t a nation with “liberty and justice for all”. I’ll also bring some trans baddie friends with me.

But like, could I come visit if I need to seek asylum? That would be different than tourism, right? I’m not really happy or comfortable with the situation here, nor have my efforts been able to change other people’s views (e.g. make them think about consequences).

Ohhh, such a relaxed bun. Very much at odds with how violent and energetic I’m sure they actually are.

Ty, ty. No talking about pets without paying the pic tax. One back for you.

;_; I can’t see any kitty pic

Happy you could join! You’ll find that not only are bans much more reasonable, but conversations are frequently downright pleasant. Aditionally, there are communities built just for calling out mods that abuse power or are heavily biased. The system here is working much better from a user perspective.

Like what? I get wishing things never got to the stage they are at, but what do you wish a bunch of unorganized hackers did earlier? Genuinely curious as I’m not good enough at coding to think of any creative “solutions”

I love being able to read the tour guide at my own pace rather than have it said to me. These structures are great.

Yeah. And he isn’t the only evil, defective clone.

I have the question mark for a side quest. Unfortunately you will not only be stuck helping me, but I have difficult to skip dialogue that was translated and localized three times.

I’m considering paint spalltering within the hypothetical that the federal agents are aggresive and risking harm to others. People get hurt and killed with their “non-lethal” methods. I would gladly go to jail for a time if it saves a life.

In the same way I would advocate the crime of going over the speed limit while passing someone on a two lane highway, yes. I believe the American people have much to learn from French protests.

Edit: Or another crime example would be feeding homeless people. Just because it’s a crime doesn’t make it immoral.

I prefer reading fiction myself. That’s partly why I keep upvoting posts in this community.

Pre edit: Oh, lol. I just typed this out and realized you were the same guy from elsewhere in the comments. Feel free to completely disagree with me, but I’m leaving this here for others that want to read and think.

There are a lot of great answers to the question, how about this one.

When the USA spent 6.5 billion anually (started with George Bush) it prevented 20 million people from being able to spread HIV each year. This includes to children that would be born with HIV. Now you might not have the empathy to consider investing that for foreign adults and children at the cost of double what just Elon Musk got last year in government contracts, but let’s change from HIV to the next Covid. What would happen to the rate of infection globally if 20 million more people from some of the poorest countries became vectors of a highly contagious deisease? That sounds like a problem for the USA to me.

Yup. That does sound racist. Mentioning black names and a court docket together in an example leads me to think inherent bias exists in the commenter.
