eviction is a necessary legal remedy to keep rental housing affordable and available for responsible people.

There's more people then houses in the US, so not really. The necessary remedy is making sure everyone only has one.

If you're a scammer it sounds amazing. Otherwise, something like the steam market is way better.

Does it seem odd to you that the devs would name their platform after a Nazi, when they are Marxists? That just strikes me as exceptionally odd, given everything I know about the two groups.

If you make a joke that risky, and they don't laugh/acknowledge it, you really shouldn't keep telling it. They either didn't get it (and probably won't with future tellings) or they didn't like it.

That's definitely a prarie dog, not a ground hog. They're actually different animals, it's not a regional difference like a lot of people think. Fun fact about prarie dogs, they're only fertile for a few hours a year.

If that really does include everything, why do I always hear about how thin margins are in the food service industry? That doesn't sound like a thin margin to me.

Things that permanently change people should be done carefully and with a lot of safety checks. We can all agree on that.

Everyone does, and they are being done with lots of checks. The above comment isn't saying that though. They're claiming that those checks aren't being done, which is just not true. The rate people regret gender reassignment surgery is orders of magnitude less then many common surgeries, like knee replacement.

liberals are going 180 against them and claiming everyone should be transitioning.

I have never seen a person arguing for that. I have seen people arguing, and passing laws, for the opposite though.

Blocktube let's you block channels completely, even from searches. It also lets you block a few other things like YouTube movies or shorts.

Contemporary capitalist societies developed in the West from 1950 to the present and this type of system continues to expand throughout different regions of the world—relevant examples started in the United States after the 1950s

This Wikipedia article says that the US is a capitalist system.

Lobbying, donor interest protection, cronyism, rise of oligarchy

Where are these things listed in the article as being incompatible with capitalism, and their presence meaning it's some other system?
