Would that people had burned that building down 50 years ago when the foundation was created. The Heritage Foundation is responsible for much of the evil that exists in the United States.

Same here. But I avoid saying it too often because I always get jumped by a bunch of forced-upgrade lemmings who insult me and tell me I'm a dumbass because I expose myself to immediate and terrible danger from evil hackers in the next 30 seconds. Which of course isn't true, but most people have been so drilled into blindly updating anything anytime an update is available without even checking what they're installing that they'll aggressively confront you if you don't.

Always remember that Trump was voted in. He's not the problem, he's a symptom. That's what's truly scary.

The instance I use (SDF) has stopped fetching Youtube video titles and thumbnails weeks ago. I just add them manually now.
The SDF instance runs 0.19.8.

Most people have money in the SP500 through their 401(k), sadly.

As long as Trump obeyed the judges - or at least didn't disobey them - he was still south of the dictatorship line. Now he's crossed the line. Because the judicial was the last rampart before tyranny, and all previous dictatorships became official when they started ignoring the law.

Yes of course, an article is subjective to a large degree. What I meant was that the site tries to itemize all the issues so as to minimize the subjectivity.

The reason I sympathize with Madam is the same reason I sympathize with most migrants: they're not doing it to hurt the country they migrate to, they're trying to have a shot at a better life. I totally get what you're saying but that doesn't make her a bad person.

Sir however is a dumbass: he did the very thing the guy he voted for said he would crack down on and now he's bitching and moaning... Well ya know, faces, leopards and all that.

I've stopped buying the American exceptionalism myth.

It's not sentimental: it attempts to measure the percentage of each of the 14 characteristics of fascism the United States meets, then combines them into a single "fascism completion" score.

Depends on where you live.

Where I live, people bring their cart back whether there's a coin in it or not. But the one thing you can count on is that few people carry coins around anymore. Therefore the locks are more of an inconvenience to everybody than a genuine help for the stores to keep their parking lots tidy.

In fact, the store are totally aware of this: I live way up north, and when it gets really cold, the stores unlock all the carts themselves and keep them loose so people don't have to take their gloves off and manipulate freezing cold metallic disks, so they can grab a cart and get inside as fast as possible.
