And it's flagged, of course.

Will somebody vouch for this? I know what you're thinking. This doesn't encourage curiosity! This is politics! Same old, same old.

HN! Come on, how myopic must you be to not see that a working democracy is a condition sine qua non of your dear curiosity. You see what's happening in Iran, right? Well, they don't!

Put your glasses on, HN, you're not seeing shit.

So many people here want to bury their heads in the sand, like that will protect them. It's disgraceful to see people calling themselves "hackers" while they support the feds with no reservations or critical thought.

Just found: "The agent who shot a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday was pulled about 100 yards by a car last year while firing a stun gun at the driver." So, this is a trend.

Yeah, he broke open the rear window and tried to unlock the door.

I feel no shame in anything I felt about Charlie Kirk’s death after seeing their response to this, and that looks like it was a team kill from conservatives. One side of the political aisle in this country is screaming about how violent the other side is, while they are committing murder and telling us that our eyes are lying to us. Gonna be a fun decade ahead

How is this situation even remotely similar to Charlie Kirk’s assassination other than a death occurred?

The nature of our current political crisis is changing by the minute, and with every fascist act this administration emboldens the next wave of left wing opposition. The moderate position for future liberal candidates is now the full dissolution of ICE. The more radical position - which is rapidly gaining support - is the arrest and prosecution of everyone involved in this administration. Starting with the president…

I'm not sure that isn't the moderate position. Every one of them are certified criminals. They all need to stand trial. I pledge to do everything in my power to ensure that they do. So say we all.
