I love how you assume anyone would be shocked by that, as of any of us has that much faith in humanity left at this point.

Isn't this what containers are supposed to provide? Docker seems better from both a security and usability point of view.

You really know nothing about the water situation in the American southwest. Good luck piping enough water (from where exactly?) when the entire Colorado River is being used up and aquifers are approaching empty. And that is with usage metered water.

Conservatism can be traced back to royalists in both pre-revolutionary America and France. It is as it always was. It has never been about conserving anything but privilege and has always sought control over everyone else.

What you call conservativism was a rather unconvincing PR campaign. It was never about personal liberty or freedom. It was definitely never about conservation.

It seems to me that the right's answer to cancer and heart disease is that shit happens. The left wants universal healthcare and public funding of medical research.

What measures did the party take to punish those three Senators?

Now try to implement that in Las Vegas. Pay per use is the way to go anywhere with constrained water supply, regardless of whether is a public or private utility. (I should definitely be public.)

We usually only find out years after the fact when the information is declassified. Also, secrecy is only necessary to the extent that it helps reach objectives. Knowing the CIA infiltrates leftist movements undercuts hope and increases distrust between leftists.

It always comes back to natural resources, generally oil. That's not necessarily the reason for specific strikes, but they are always in service to developing or maintaining "cooperative" local governments.

What might really blow your mind is how culturally liberal much of the middle east used to be. Then came the global oil rush and the decision that reactionary theocratic governments were easier to control. Western intelligence agencies are largely responsible for the level of religious extremism and violence we see today. In fact, it worked so well that they decided to try it at home in America. That's the short version of how we got exactly where we are today.

I disagree. These aren't Nazis, they are cosplay Nazis. Nazis actually believed in a cause and we're willing to put their balls on the table in service to that cause. What we have now are grifters who have been made to back down repeatedly.

The time for violence might come but so far civil disobedience has been the smarter move. If elections start being cancelled, that's a whole new situation though.

I feel like that is almost nobody. There may be certain actions that are inadvisable while the Republicans control everything, but that doesn't prevent other actions from being so taken. People taking no action now won't act any differently next year.
