That's because they're not "free speech absolutists", they're fascists that want to force their own idea of what valid speech is on everyone else.

Not only that but a lot of businesses built inventories before the tariffs took place and we're seeing that gone now, from now on we'll likely see more increases as everything that is showing up has a tariff applied.

Mage is a game for teenagers, it doesn't try to be anything else other than a game where you roll dice do to stuff.

A country like the US should be self sufficient in energy, food and medicine, but there has never been a concerted policy to do that. One of the biggest reasons is lobbying, for the US to be self sufficient in energy, for instance, it would
