According to a 2000 report by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), Tucker wrote for publications of the League of the South, a group the SPLC considers neo-Confederate and white supremacist. The SPLC report said Tucker was listed as a founding member on the league’s website
League of the South? Bad guys. These are bad guys and if he’s friends with or even only does business with them he is a bad guy.
Talking politics in church tho? I mean I also agree with the sentiment but what happened to being citizens of the kingdom that is not of this earth? I understand lots of religious leaders are advocating for the other side, but it seems wrong to me either way.
Can you believe this guy? I never admit when I’m wrong, I just insist I’m right and say several things even more wrong than the first thing, but with confidence and conviction. This inspires respect and admiration from stupid people.
Who is answering these polls though? I suspect it’s a lot of old people who have alienated their kids, and have plenty of time to answer their land lines, desperate to chat with someone about anything.
I could be wrong, but when I get these calls and texts asking me who I’ll vote for or did I know senator Jeff Merkley worships thr devil and wears pink underwear or whatever, I never answer, I delete em and I suspect most other people do too.
It’s funny that many actual leftists are saying they hate Harris because she leans right and if the dems lose, they have only themselves to blame.
Yeah, slaves of the corporate overlords are attacking her because she’s a new Brandeis.
Its funny that people say reddit is such a leftist hell hole, meanwhile more than one lemmy instance has actual leftists who seem to hate Harris so much they’d rather see Trump in the Whitehouse.
I mean not funny haha, but funny weird.
Well, a little bit funny haha.
Is PBS an acceptable news source around here?
Anyway it’s interesting that tougher knife laws have been passed in Germany following the attack. This is misguided in my opinion because when knives are outlawed, only outlaws will have knives. How do people not recognize that the only way to stop a bad guy with a knife is with a good guy with a knife?
Thank God Americans have the right to carry our knives to festivals, playgrounds, kindergarten classes, and wherever Americans go, to keep our nation safe and free.
Mi ne pensas ke numero du estas stranga.
What’s our secret? Low overhead! And we pass the savings on to you, our valued customer!
When I moved north, I realized there are only two seasons here: looking forward to summer, and dreading winter.
Well that’s something I suppose.
How many times over the last 4 years have I been told “Oh, they really got him now!” Do any wealthy politicians face consequences for the shady stuff they do( I include democrats in this category)?
And then I think about George Floyd who tried to buy a pack of smokes with a phony $20, and possibly didn’t even know it was counterfeit, but was killed shortly thereafter.
This is not the America I want
Die, heretic!
Some baseball scholars consider any contact between the bat and a Hindu, Sikh or Buddhist baby to be foul bunt, and therfore an automatic strike. A Scientologist, Church of Latter Day Saints or Jehova’s Witness baby on the other hand is considered a fair ball unless caught in flight with runners on first, first and second, first and third, or bases loaded (with less than two out).
What kind of Christian baby? If it’s Pentecostal I’ll hit it out of the park, but a New Southern Reform Anabaptist baby? No way!
Wait, is he saying
Yet that horrible day was the vindication, not the expiration, of our constitutional system. The system worked. The riot was put down. Congress, including Republicans, reassembled and certified Biden as the next president.
In the courts, many Trump-appointed judges ruled against challenges to the election.
Our system was put through a Cat 5 stress test
So let’s reward the ones responsible!
Seems like that’s the logic here. Tell the vice president to lie and subvert our system, Cause a riot in which someone is killed, and an estimated 1.5 million dollars of damage to the Capitol building, including literal shit smeared down the halls, people doing jailtime and a whole bunch of frivolous bullshit lawsuits - These are the actions of someone who will defend democracy and ought to be president!
This is one of the dumbest pro-trump arguments I have ever heard.
SRA describes the goal of their organization as “to provide an alternative to the mainstream, toxic, right-wing, and non-inclusive gun culture that has dominated the firearms community for decades. We seek to provide a safe, inclusive, and left-leaning platform for talking about gun rights and self defense, free from racist and reactionary prejudices, while providing a platform for the working class to obtain the skills necessary for all aspects of community defense.”[25] The group describes itself as “working class, progressive, anarchist, socialist, communist, eco-warrior, animal liberator, anti-fascist, anti-racist, anti-capitalist, PoC, LGBTQ-plus.”
Wow! There’s a whole bunch of people I’m friends with that I didn’t even know about.
The basis of prison abolition is not the idea that we should replace prision with something else. We start by understanding that it is the structure of our society that creates and perpetuates systems of crime and punishment. The emphasis on punishment does little or nothing to address the safety, health and property rights of the public. So it can be seen that it is a public problem that requires a public solution: the vast resources spent on catching and punishing people would be better spent on prevention by making mental health, substance abuse and addiction treatment affordable and available to everyone.
Rather than punish, a greater effort could be made to help rehabilitate people who have lost control of themselves and their lives, to restore them to living in harmony within their communities. Of course there will always be a small proportion of the population that are unable to healthy lives, unable to resist resorting to theft, violence, and desperate attempts at self-medication. Such persons do not benefit from punishment.
