It’s basically why I don’t order pizza anymore. Even if you directly order from the store they just partner out with a random app. Like no I don’t want my pizza to arrive 2 hours later cold. Thanks though

It’s like every other technological innovation we’ve made. It’s not going to go “back in the box”. We need to figure out how to appropriately use it to make our lives better and mitigate the bad. Then again we still haven’t figured that out with cellphones.

Also very weird take. The revolution was started by the wealthy. It wasn’t some grassroots rebellion. It was backed by the authority of the individual colonial governments. So each state’s colonial government joined in to rebel. That’s a lot different than expecting some protesters to start a sustained rebellion.
To be clear my previous comment wasn’t talking about The American Revolution. It was talking about the general concept of revolutions. Historically they can work, but as I explained that’s a lofty thing to expect an individual to start

A proper reconstruction for 20 years or so and baring current elected Republicans from office for life, barring their 1st generation descendants, actually trying traitors with treason this time, bolster the education system, un-gerrymander the voting districts, ensure everyone has easy access to voting, automatically register all citizens to vote, do away with the electoral college, and that should just about take care of it.
arrow74@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•Kids born today are going to grow up in a hellscape, grim climate study findsEnglish21·2 days agoI’m not saying revolution doesn’t work, historically it does. But your judgement is not very practical. If you act as an individual you get arrested for terrorism and the state charges you with the death penalty. You riot the state brings in the riot police to bash your face in. You truly revolt and they bring in the tanks and declare martial law. Martial law would greatly benefit the current administration.
I don’t know how to get around these obstacles, and I suspect neither do you. I have a whole hell of a lot more respect for those that leave their homes to protest injustice than those that stay at home and do nothing other than critize people for trying. I don’t see you volunteering to fire the first shot in either my country or yours. So until you are ready to take that leap maybe don’t critize those trying to do something. Or come up with a criticism more constructive than “why don’t you just commit crimes and risk everything including your life”. That’s a lot to ask of anyone

arrow74@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•To End Birthright Citizenship, Trump Is Rewriting Civil War HistoryEnglish2·2 days agoFunny how every state that succeeded listed defending the institution of slavery as a reason for leaving the union and subsequently joining the confederacy.
I think the most accurate statement is the Confederate states left the Union to preserve the institution of slavery. The Union originally only sought to bring back the Confederate states and end the open rebellion. Lincoln was much more interested in restoring the Union than ending slavery, and in the early part of the war would have absolutely allowed slavery to continue if it meant ending the rebellion. Thus, restoring all states to the United States. However, as the war progressed it became clear there would be no easy resolution. Through the Emancipation Proclamation he was able to break the power behind southern production, the slaves, and push forward abolition. A cause he personally was always favorable towards, but unwilling to sacrifice the Union for.

I always did like how the Ferengi found human slavery abhorrent.
But also didn’t really acknowledge that their women were effectively slaves.

I don’t believe other than the planes he slipped through immediately after the Courts first order, he has broken it further. Since then he has obeyed this one. And this is just a continuation of the existing order.
But you never know anymore. And of course this is just about kidnapping people and taking them to an El Salvadorian Gulag. Nothing about him revoking green cards over free speech
