You know what, anyone still buying a Tesla deserves it.

Yeah, it’s getting harder and harder to be hyperbolic these days.

The lackeys were the ones actually doing the illegal act. To sue Trump they will need to prove he gave direct orders to censor media and that it’s not a “will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” situation. And even in that case the lackeys still need to be held accountable for following illegal orders.

Too busy making lists of people to ship to concentration camps in Guantanamo and Central America. But don’t worry they are just following orders, and 20 years from now they will all see themselves as victims. /S

Weird, every time I went to my local GameStop before it closed it looked like a diversity fair.

Amazon needs shipping prices to stay low. If they go up, Amazon either needs to reduce their margins to pay for it or they will be less competitive against physical shops. Either way their profits will take a hit.

It’s just an involuntary hand movement, like when someone reaches for glasses they are already wearing, or reach out for a phone that’s not in the pocket. He got the habit from all the times he does the Nazi salute behind closed doors. /s (but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s actually true)

Before modern electronics it was even more useful than gold, whose only function was being shiny - and the gold stored in vaults is not even doing that.

Ok, which other police department is going hire the now unemployed swines fine agents of law?

The US is probably going to steal any assets Alexandre de Moraes has in the US. But that will open a Pandora box - one that might make American oligrachs like Musk very unhappy.

From the article

filed a lawsuit against Justice Alexandre de Moraes in a U.S. court in Tampa, Florida.

The argument that follows is literally that a Brazilian court didn’t follow the US constitution.

This is as bananas as China starting to fine people that talk about Taiwan or the Tienanmen protests anywhere in the world.

There’s still the question why an American court would have jurisdiction to apply the American constitution in Brazil.

The Catholic church is guilty of many sins. Giving a fuck about the US President was never one of them.

It still says that executive branch employees should just follow orders, which is not compatible with the rule of law.

That still reduces the executive to “just following orders” which is a principle that’s not accepted anywhere that follows the rule of law.

Yes. The moment someone questions that they are no better than a fascist.

Some people may need to be detained to prevent harm to other people, but that should always come from a place of respect for everyone’s lives and wellbeing and not out of a desire for revenge or punishment.

“Worth” in the humanist “all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights” sense, not in the capitalistic “if you aren’t rich or making the rich richer, then die” sense.

Dignity. So “worth” in the humanist sense of the word, not in the transactional sense.

Warning: Some of the photos in the link are VERY gory Yes there are photos.

It’s a common joke because the average budget of a sci-fi blockbuster is higher than a typical space mission.

Of course that’s comparing apple’s to oranges at several levels, but that’s why it’s a joke, otherwise Hollywood would have it’s own space program.
