When you remember that ICE and DHS and CBP were all created out of the 9/11 "we have to do something" hysteria you realize that actually Al-Qaeda won! The terrorists succeeded in their intended goal. America lost and terrorism won.

Because the opportunity cost to “go vote” is absolute trash.
We have research that proves laws do NOT reflect voters. Laws reflect the wealthy (political donors).
There is literally no causal connection between your vote and your governance in our system. And it’s not because we don’t know how.

Agreed. The People must be able to remove people from power that harm them. Democracy hinges upon CONSENT of the people to be governed.

For consent to be valid, there must be a method to withdraw consent. The people need a safe word!

This is a wonderful observation. Clear communication is critical to collaboration.
Our system has also been reliant on written documentation trails and bureaucratic routine procedural processes.

It’s wild what we’ll support when it promises to benefit us personally. Being on the “right side” doesn’t absolve your self-serving intentions.
This is the fallacy of the “lesser evil”. It’s easy to make promises without accountability.

A corporation’s right to make money by poisoning the land and people overrides the peoples’ right to clean, air, and land at all times. If we wanted to live forever maybe we should have been born rich, hmm?

Biologically speaking, “sex” is not mutually exclusive nor a fixed trait. Google is free.

When I say “ideas are meaningless without disprovability” I am stating it within the context of science. The “idea” that someone harmed you can be true, but will only applies to “science” where it can be “disproved”. Not *all* ideas are meaningless without disprovability.
