They basically want border towns to become civilian ran security checkpoints by the sounds of it.

You stop for gas in Bumfuck, TX and the clerk gets to pressure you about what you're leaving the state for. If they think you're "one of those types", this ordinance gives them the authority to make your life a living hell. Doesn't even matter if you're actually getting an abortion, just that they "think" that you are.

Definitely don't ever underestimate how quickly lack of sleep can mess you up mentally and physically.

Inflicting sleep deprivation on a person is widely recognized as a form of torture by human rights organizations as well as the UN.

You mean the fact that the biggest initial source of support the Nazis got was from the emerging business class who were scared of the rising influence of labor unions? Can't imagine why that gets pushed under the bed.

Not like we had that nearly happen here in the US or anything though. Just don't look into the Business Plot or that many of the Jan 6thers turned out to be small business tyrants...

Just remember that the most dangerous Nazis aren't the skinheads on the corner but the ones on Wall Street.

And this is nothing new at all for Apple. I still remember how infuriating it was having to deal with iTunes for moving files to and from my iPod Touch. Jailbreaking so I didn't have to deal with iTunes was such a relief

Android obviously having no issues with you just having direct access to the file system makes it so much easier

That definitely still demonstrates a ride or die mentality. If one sleaseball can sway the room in such a way where than budging against it would lead to ridicule, that still shows the sort of internal pressure there is to tow the party line no matter what

"Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat And the obese milkin' welfare"

Misremembered the line but regardless, still sure sounds like he's blaming them.

"Also, it's hilarious how he can touch on 20 issues that every one of us agree with, but the left hyper-focuses on one line they don't like, because he just looks like a hillbilly trump supporter to y'all."

That's sorta the problem of right wing populism dude. Yeah, many of the issues pointed out in the song are legitimate and need to be addressed but how he tacks on "welfare queens" is trying to shift the blame onto people have nothing to do with your own hardships. That family getting $400 a month in food stamps is not the reason everything sucks right now.

Kenneth Copeland is straight up one of the creepiest persons alive. He has that look and mannerisms like he's actively deciding what part of your body best matches his evening cabernet he has as he waits for his skin suit to be dry cleaned.

Surely centrist neolibs and the far right would never collaborate to prevent leftist candidates from being able to have a chance at getting elected... That never has happened before /s

Government databases getting misused for personal motives is actually pretty common.

AP did a report on this back in 2016 and while public records on this are fairly limited, they still found about 300 cases of database abuse from 2013 through 2015.

"Those insidious trans trying to trick people into sleeping with them! They just don't have any respect for people's body autonomy.

Now anyways, time for me to drug random women without their consent."
