To be fair, most people don’t listen or care to listen to politics. Don’t blame them.

But many DO listen and care about their entertainment. I’ll take it if it means people who wouldn’t get involved do now. Especially if her fans are of the younger progressive variety.

I’ll admit it. I do listen to her songs.

Not much of a complete defeat if it’s just a few tanks. Let alone no date or verification.

There is no indoctrination, so this shit article can take a hike.

Funny thing is the counter protester outnumbered these hate crazed freaks by quite a lot.

Already failed the DoD vote, so he's running out of options.

If he does go to the Democrats, he's screwed. If he doesn't he is still screwed.

Dude wanted this job too.....hahahahahaha!

Only a couple hundred more to go, but f*cking finally!

Unfortunately, as long as the lights stay on, air conditioning keeps blasting, grocery store stays stocked, and entertainment remains flowing then people won't do anything.

The people who could do something would make them lose the next election, be labeled terrorists, or start get harping on "won't you think of the economy!"

Progress is being made, but drastic measures needed to happen decades ago. The question is now how quickly and badly will things get, and how well we can manage it....

I'm sensing a tend here....

On another note, how is it SO HARD not to sexually assault or RAPE anyone when you are a celebrity and/or rich?

Considering their policy doesn't allow for other stuff like this, yeah I am not surprised.

Content that may be generally construed as provocative, divisive, objectionable, discriminatory, or abusive toward any real-world individual or group, may be subject to moderation.

We tolerate content related to real world issues and events as long as the appropriate tag ("Real World Issues") is used and the content is handled in a tasteful, respectful, and non-inflammatory manner.

Reminds me of the time when a Spiderman mod removed the VERY few instances of a pride flag in a recreation of NEW YORK CITY and a Skyrim mod that removed any potential gay romances that only occur when wearing a very specific amulet (including a single dead skeleton couple off the beaten path.)

Those got booted as well cause.....come on now. Its blatantly targeting a group of people about their sexuality and gender who have BARELY any presence to begin with in these games.

Starfield is even more egregious as its LITERALLY just a menu option and the rare use in dialogue....

Really pathetic and sad people would even feel the need to make them to begin with. Let alone feel the need to upload them to a platform.

If you are talking about blatantly kiddie porn, then I absolutely agree with you.

Though it is not a new trend, not particularly an unpopular opinion, or limited to just cringe.

If it’s just cutsie or shortstack type character, then to each their own.

Loli stuff has always been a black hole when it comes to any anime discussion, so I applaud your bravery in breaching the subject.

What explains negativity about a good economy? Partisanship is surely a factor: Republicans’ assessment of the current economy roughly matches what it was in June 1980, when unemployment was twice as high and inflation four times as high as they are now. Beyond that, the events of the past few years — not just inflation and higher interest rates but also the disruption Covid caused to everyone’s lives, and perhaps the sense that America is coming apart politically — may have engendered a sourness, an unwillingness to acknowledge good news even when it happens.

Interesting option from the article.

So, it might be more "everything is falling apart or not the same" type of thinking. Could explain it and wouldn't surprise me.

Everything does seem different after COVID at least. Things don't feel the same even years after.

Exactly.

I'd go one step farther and even say if they even had the same amount of attacks as other dogs, had no possible mental diseases, and all want to caring homes I would still put restrictions/ban on them.

They are just too large to handle, too big of a bite to brush off, and end up in dog attacks a lot. That's enough for me.
