I keep thinking about this video. There is no way they had probable cause or a warrant on that guy. Like every single other person, it’s just straight (attempted) kidnapping by the state with no legal authority.

I do feel bad for the troops being forced to randomly patrol cities.
But also: this is hilarious and we should do more of it.

Comedy has the ability to tackle serious subjects and get the audience to think. This bit is both funny and sad. The portrayal is already happening in Red States. Oklahoma has a requirement for teacher to pass a special certification designed to require acceptance of ultra conservative dogma

The financial economy is immersed in the kind of wild gambling we saw leading up to the 2008 financial crisis.
We’re seeing it all over again — this time with crypto, meme stocks, junk bonds, and investors pumping up shares of AI stocks without knowing what it is.
Be warned.
