It's such a forceful word that's lost all meaning in this day and age. Every time I see the word 'slam' in a headline I know literally nothing has been done about the problem.
Like, thanks Mozilla. You pointed a finger. What now?

"Now there is also another bit where it acknowledges some were explicitly fighting to defend slavery. However since what those researchers are using is letters…"
You're really handwaving away what's called a primary source of information. Those letters are actually really important for understanding what was going on in the heads of the soldiers at that time. The fact that they were explicitly writing about the right to own slaves shows that they were aware of what explicit right they were fighting for.
I keep hearing how other states outside of CO are getting bent over on weed prices while I pay 60 for an ounce of decent stuff.
At this point, how many times has Miles watched himself die? His whole life is like one giant existential tragedy.
Calling a method of execution barbaric in it's practice isn't the same as saying the executed is a hero. If you're not willing to engage with this subject, then please don't make one up to get angry at others over.
Yeah, there was only one right that was in question. The average confederate soldier was there because he wanted to protect the white mans ability to own slaves because he thought he was going to get rich doing it once the war was over.
I guess it's fun to cosplay as a poor, but they keep bribing politicians to prevent that. Their wealth can make that happen if they actually wanted that.
Right, so it makes sense to use ad blockers to stop all ads. If bad actors can corrupt absolutely everything, then absolutely all ads will need to be blocked.
Trump wasn't the president in June of 2022. That's when Roe V Wade was reversed. This happened under Biden's watch. Democrats have failed time and time again to do something to enshrine abortion rights when they've had the opportunity. Why would I believe that they are actually going to do something this time around?
Here's how the future's going to go if Biden gets elected. They'll spend the next 4 years not protecting abortion rights, and then a republican's going to get elected in 2028, and completely destroy abortion rights federally. Democrats will continue to con you into voting for them by faking a promise to bring back abortion rights.
Shit's going to get far fucking worse before it's going to get better.
So I guess the answer is yes, the media made it a story by writing this very story.
Or security. Lots of cops moonlight as security guards.
