The logic is Nazi flags are part of history so it’s a curriculum thing that allows it to be displayed as part of the lesson. So if you teach a lesson on the history of stone wall or obergefell v Hodges you can fly the flag? Nope, too woke

(Adding my soap box here, not disagreeing with what you said)

Vote with your wallet and habits (and your vote). With the exception of maybe AI, most of those things are produced by the companies because people want them. They’re not just doing it for fun. I realize many of those things are essentials that you can’t readily decline in our society which is where the government regulation would ideally kick in. (And if it doesn’t we should hold our leaders accountable)

I know that individual responsibility is a corporate defection to avoid corporate responsibility but the other extreme of no personal accountability (“10 companies account for 90% of emissions, it’s their fault!”) isn’t exactly the correct stance either. We should all work to minimize our impacts, make green choices when mildly more inconvenient green alternatives exist. If companies can’t make money polluting they will adapt. And if we foster a social environment where it’s socially commendable to make those personal choices then the ecological awareness of the average voter goes up and the political situation gets better faster.

“We are literally turning into a nazi country”

“Chin up kiddo, it probably won’t be that bad!”

If everything were fine that would be one thing you could have a discussion about, how much intolerance do you tolerate etc. When thethe senate and state legislatures are literally chomping at the bit to genocide the trans then enabling that rhetoric can only be collaborators to evil. Not to mention that trans aren’t the only group she has targeted. Working with the “maybe the nazis weren’t so bad” person when America is falling to the nazis is certainly a choice

I’m convinced people who can’t tell when a chat bot is hallucinating are also bad at telling whether something else they’re reading is true or not. What online are you reading that you’re not fact checking anyway? If you’re writing a report you don’t pull the first fact you find and call it good, you need to find a couple citations for it. If you’re writing code, you don’t just write the program and assume it’s correct, you test it. It’s just a tool and I think most people are coping because they’re bad at using it

“You’re not allowed to say anything these days! Next they’ll come for me!”

Bro if what they’re saying about rapists and harassers means they’ll come for you then you are a bad person and they should come for you. But probably also you’re just victim complexing and nobody is going to accuse of anything other than being an annoying ass

Not exactly a jump scare, it’s more of a drama trope; I hate the cliche of casual moments in a car and then they get t boned, sets me on edge in every car scene with dialog

Or a vote of retention like Colorado does. Governor appoints the judges but voters must retain them or new judges must be appointed. Kind of strikes a balance between overtly campaigning judges and more democratic influence on the judiciary
