I mean their constituents. Some republicans don’t have to ever worry about being reelected since their area is so gerrymandered.

There are a LOT of republicans against this bill too. It’s only the wealthy 1% that aren’t effected by the anti-environment policies that are for it.

Why do they not care if their base dies? Like during covid, they let them die and encouraged behavior that would kill them. What is the point?

Both sides, amirite?

I wish that were true, but it’s not. Anywhere along the Mississippi, tornado alley, earthquake country, flooding, etc., those are all equal opportunity disasters.

Again, thanks. I’ll pass this on to the instance mods to see if there are patterns for others.

Huh, wouldn’t you have to have people trust you to do this?

Republicans can fire him at any time they want. The democrats will help them.

Wow, thanks for looking into it and trying to figure it out. You may not be able to tell, but do you think it was trying to respond like a normal user or just posted by accident?

Don’t give them too much credit, it should never have started in the first place.

We’re already there as well: https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/alligator-alcatraz-immigration-detention-site-in-the-everglades-what-to-know/3645008/

Did you see that we had a 6 million people, peaceful protest? If those turned into riots, so many people would have been murdered by our government and “with justification.” Riots are what the government wants. They’re itching for reasons to take over democratic cities. We’re different.

Protests do work, but my entire life I kept hearing from everyone about the 2nd amendment and why Americans need to have guns for this type of shit.

They pointed to Canada and more recently Australia as to why taking away their guns is bad, yet here America is now: more guns than people, but afraid to use the 2nd amendment as it’s designed to be used.

The people saying these things are the right wing. There are liberal gun owners, but they usually see the nuance of the situations. Please don’t treat us like a monolith. We have states that are like developing countries and education systems that are almost non-existent. And then we have other states that have the best schools in the world.

Looks like you’re Canadian. You might want to clean your own house right now before giving advice. You have right wingers already getting way too many votes.

Also, this:

The Peaceful LA Protests of June, 2025 worked. We’re all talking about it now. If the LA protests weren’t peaceful, we would have different talking points for this weekend’s protests and protesters would have been killed. This administration wants this.

YSK - That there is a lot of trolling and brigading starting to happen around the LA peaceful protests to start violence. Here is a roadmap from 2015 on how they do it.: https://sh.itjust.works/post/39873361

Also, this:

Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.

So you’ve taken part in Paris riots? Did anything you were a part of change to more your liking?

Not always though. Sometimes it’s just a guy protecting someone and they murder them. I seriously think about that guy going to work that day and how his family felt about how they died. They’re not necessarily protecting good people, but it’s just a job.

Yep, people all think that a criminal history means they did something bad like robbing a store or assaulting people. It’s not, it could be that they were here illegally for 6 months before they became legal.

Where do you live?

We’re in trouble guys.

LMAO, how’s your freedom going Texas? The government will now have access to all of your porn history. Kids being kids will probably figure out a way around it, but will the adults? I’m guessing nah.
