Where do you think Jefferson’s Black descendents come from? Who do you think paid the bounties for scalps? Germ theory wasn’t invented yet, they didn’t know why beer was safe to drink or why they needed to bathe. Settlers thought it was strange how the natives would strip naked and bathe in rivers - so uncivilized! Unlike Europeans, who would bathe as little as possible as to preserve their modesty.

All of this is easily looked up.

Your idols were evil morons. Read a history book.

They’re going to overreach so hard during this Presidential term, holy shit. There’s also many unpopular things they’ve wanted to do for so long and now is their chance.

I wonder what the breaking point will be.

The founders would routinely rape their slaves and participated in scalping. They were day drunk all the time because one of the best ways to clean water was to make it into beer. They didn’t believe in bathing, they thought washing the grime off would let the bad airs in and make them sick.

It’s clearly making fun of boomer humor. 🙄

He could still pardon them all, it’s not like his hand would cramp from signing too many papers! Go through, one by one, and pardon them all.

And all the people on federal death row, that Trump is going to kill.

And all the people with federal marijuana charges.

And people like Leonard Peltier and Julian Assange while he’s at it.

What’s stopping him?

Infrared isn’t red, though. Seems like it’s worth making a distinction between different frequencies if the way it interacts with matter is different.

If everything else was legal, people would stop dying from drugs laced with fent.

I’m not saying it’s okay, but to give some historical context, literally every president of the past 80 years and the next 5 presidents would have and will do what Biden has done towards Israel.

Ronald fucking Reagan forced Israel into a ceasefire with Lebanon, Syria, and the Palestine Liberation Organization. And it was a real ceasefire, unlike the current joke of a ceasefire Israel has with Lebanon that it keeps violating, and it held for a long-ass time.

I care that he’s not pardoning people in immigration detention. Instead he just pardons his crackhead son and leaves.

Yes, and also, they believe pregency complications are God’s punishment for her sinful nature. The deaths are the point.

I figured something cool was happening to allow them to use radar from the air. So it’s not even radar, it’s like, ELFdar.

Really weird they went for the “lightspeed” angle tho

… isn’t that just how radar works? A radio emission is sent out, bounces off an object, and then detectors measure the difference?

The fact that this works from the sky is definitely new, but I think all radar is light speed by definition.

Legislation is still pretty complicated, having professional legislators makes sense just as a technical profession.

We could certainly stand to have more direct input though!

Sorry, you misread what I said 😅

You, the recommender, are the one picking the instance. Whichever one you like best! Don’t bother telling them anything about instances, that’s a waste of time. Just say “go to lemmy.world and post” and don’t bother explaining anything else.

Turns out the concept of “checks and balances” was always a stupid lie.

Just casually visiting the beach in Nazi Germany.

Feed me to the mushrooms.

I’m telling people that it’s okay to be a normie.

And it is.

Car nerds can be car nerds to support the normies who can only drive.

Rewarded?

This is about what is best for getting more people in into the fediverse. I’m telling people to stop being nerds and chasing normies away.
