  We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent. - Justice Sonia Sotomayor

  As should we all.

  I’ve come across Against The Machine by Paul Kingsnorth. This is pretty much getting at the same. He’s a great writer, imo.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What even is money at this point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Because that’s how the rich like it. The poors feel the effects, while the rich maintain or grow what they have.

  Who are you talking to? See, you’ve included me in a group which i am definitely not even a part of. If this is how people like you behave, this country has no hope of reconciliation. (I have, and would never vote for, someone like Trump, btw)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know… just like how “black voters” are not a true homogenous voting block, neither are “MAGA” proponents all of the same ideology. There’s no rule book they all “abide” by. It’s a spectrum of ridiculous people.

  Nice examples provided to prove your point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘It speaks to me in brain rot’: Theorising ‘brain rot’ as a genre of participation among teenagers⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Some sources – mainly psychology and wellness websites, but also notably mainstream news outlets such as Fox News…

  Are we still referring to Fox News as a “news outlet”?

  Our culture disintegrates every time we choose convenience over everything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A thermostat should be called a thermostay.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The word thermostat comes from the Greek “thermos” (heat) and “status” (standing or stationary), which translated loosely means “keep heat at a steady level.”

  I left Spotify for many reasons including this. They’ve only proven that they do not care about artists at all. I remember before I left, many of the tracks that came up “based on my playlist” were just random AI generated crap.

  That’s literally the only reason Trump is where he is. He’s not actually good at anything.

  No worries haha. I actually looked up “Barista” to make sure there wasn’t a male version before I commented just in case.

  You mean because they don’t pay them enough? Also could be a him, btw.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 USA⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You weren’t kidding!

  California enforces many wildlife regulations. CESA, or the California Endangered Species Act, is designed to keep animal and plant life from extinction. The law covers any threatened “bird, mammal, fish, amphibian, reptile, or plant.”

  Insects weren’t mentioned in the specific act’s wording. However, a separate California regulation legally defines fish as “a wild fish, mollusk, crustacean, invertebrate, amphibian, or part, spawn, or ovum of any of those animals.”
  So, are bees actually fish? Yes, because all invertebrates are according to California law. The broad definition of fish allows activists to fight for insect survival.
  The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has clarified that “It was not believed necessary to include the term invertebrate in the original legislation because ‘fish’ is defined in the Fish and Game Code to include ‘invertebrates’…”

  Talk about by-the-book!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Attorney General: ‘Everyone is Welcome Here’ sign cannot be displayed in Idaho schools⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Inama went on to argue that messages of inclusion are not political, especially when both state and federal law dictate that public schools must accept all children and cannot discriminate.

  “To say that ‘Everyone is Welcome’ in a public school system is not political, it’s the law,” Inama said.

  Inclusive sayings aren’t new to public schools, Inama noted. Back when she was a student, signs that read things like “All are Welcome” or “Everyone is Welcome” were a common way to encourage kids to feel safe and welcome and therefore ready to learn.

  “It’s all over the place. It’s not a political opinion, it’s a pretty common message,” Inama said

  Sounds like the times are trying to change the common message. Laws are already changing to be discriminatory as we speak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I see what you’re saying. But I also think the comment chain is speaking to the limits of our knowledge. The “limits that physics imposes on technology” is only based on what human beings have figured out through our limits of testing the rules of existence. What we can’t test, we have never been able to prove. And some things we may never be able to test or prove (such as Dark Matter). It’s easy to say there isn’t evidence of something, just as easy as it is to say that it’s because it’s past our limit/ability to test those things right now.
