Your premise is fatally flawed. People don’t organize organically in large groups. The media tends to lead them. All this rule you have would do is make sure grassroots protesting isn’t permitted but when the elite run a media train on citi

Nobody trusts them or anything else in the govt if they have a room temp iq. What does my lack of trust do to the cia or fbi? They both still track my every move. The govt makes laws I despise. We have no control.

I’ve never had this asked of me and I think it would really make me want to look for a new job if it was required Also, this reminds me of the unpleasant experience in a very small grad program of being asked for anonymous feedback at the e

Honestly, they shouldn’t be allowed to advertise to teens at all It’s pretty sick how we have this parasitic industry built around “how can we manipulate developing brains at all costs for our profit?” What’s the benefit to our society? Men

Simultaneously, you can see that in several of these cherry picked examples the coldest temps recorded during those times were quite close to the record cold as well. If you look at the global maps, you can see that while some regions are e

Yet with 80%+ (or so) of the population vaccinated, one would expect a drop in people dying from covid At least - that’s what they said when it came out and they demanded everyone take it. Plus with all the boosters, combined with the gen
