I mean, if we genuinely had a significant amount of local, state and federal law makers that cared about protecting their constituents instead of whatever the fuck they are doing now, we could have some accountability.

What frustrates me is there doesn’t seem to be anyone in a position to promote change to this problem that is really talking about it. They may pay it lip service but nothing beyond that.
Because to many people politics is a team sport - their team is always right the opposing team is always wrong.
So if the refs call a foul on their team then it was a bullshit call, but on the other team then it was fair.
I was thinking of appealing my parking ticket to the Supreme Court
Yes. but those people that lose their jobs wouldn’t have to stress about either paying for or using healthcare - This freedom can give many people the opportunity to do something they love (or like to do). Maybe that is starting a new business or creating a new product? Or they could go work in a different industry that they find more fulfilling where previous they couldn’t because of the lack of health benefits.
I think in the long run the people that lose their job grinding away in a huge faceless health insurance job might actually be a good thing for them?
Some people just don’t like silly videos I guess …
A true “Patriot” would follow the trail of the filter. Where did the raw materials come from for the filter? where was it manufactured? how was it shipped to the store? Who put it on the shelf? If a dirty librul ever touched it then it can’t be certified as “non-woke”
I think the way you need to do it is The Onion style of journalism, with a wink and a nod. BUT when your crazy ass right wing theories get shared as “FACTS” on other social media sites you don’t dispute it. I kinda think that is how most right wing YouTubers do it.
If the system was working as it should congress can impeach him. But that’s not going to happen we know that he knows that.
I also think that he is using this GOP congressional firewall to keep doing it because why not?
I was head over heels in love with this person for years then they dropped the bomb that they wanted to break up. I was devastated.
It was intense pain and sadness for a few weeks, then depression, then numb. For a long time I couldn’t get them out of my mind, I wrote (but never sent) many emails to them about how I hurt. That kinda helped. I started to reach out to some of my friends and would do things with them. That kinda helped. I started a few new hobbies. That kinda helped. I started dating again. That kinda helped.
By the time I was doing all of that about a year had passed. I still thought of them, and I still do to this day (6 years later) but the sting and pain of that day is gone. I’ve been through a few break ups since then and I think I’ve taken them better because of the end of that relationship.
All that to say, you will heal - you may never forget them but the pain will go away. At this moment it may not feel like it will go away but it will and you will be a better person because of it
I’ve got nothing to add other than, Alex Jones is a big piece of shit
but now we have a scapegoat
