Oh, so the dumb fucking wall is still happening? And we can just waive laws now? Since fucking when, and how come the California High Speed Rail Authority doesn't know about it, or does efficiency only apply when we're increasing suffering?

[–] Posadas@hexbear.net 37 points 2 years ago

California high speed rail = inconveniancing white landowners

Boarder wall = getting to destroy indigenous graves and harm people displaced by US foreign policies

astronaut-1

the laws have never applied to the ruling class.

We cannot; they can. The ruling class has only practical constraints on what it can do, but in truth bears no legal obligation to anything but itself. Individuals in the ruling class may receive punishment for lawbreaking, having violated their obligation to their class, but when the ruling class moves in a unified fashion, there is no such thing as them being bound by their own laws, because they are the ones who write the laws, enforce the laws, and rule on allegations that the law was broken (or, more accurately, they own the people who do those things). In a capitalist society, what has the general support of capitalists and thereby the major parties is always going to be "legal" unless a divide forms in that coalition.

Literally burning a pile of all the money budgeted for this would be better for society.

I have been to the wall several times.

A wall is something that you can go over, under, around, and through. It won’t stop anything. Just takes resources to build and destroy.

[–] Dingus_Khan@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

It won’t stop anything.

It stops plenty of migratory species, some of which are endangered doomjak

Who gives a fuck about

that clean water, National history, those migratory birds (X2), that clean air, that wildlife refuge system, those eagles, fish and wildlife (X2), archaeological resources, paleontological resources, that clean water again, the noise we make, the solid waste we dispose of, any liability or compensation for environmental harm, and whatever the fuck an antiquity is

blue MAGA must be currently receiving the new updated talking points, from "we need to stop trump's racist border wall!" to "its okay for biden to bulldoze protected wildlife conservation areas for the racist border wall"
