Seems to mostly be called “Screaming Seagull” or “Inhaling Seagull”

Ah. They would never do anything good because they’re evil, and they’re evil because they would never do anything good. Logic so airtight not even the tiniest fact can penetrate.

2,300 different charities according to her website. You can see the whole list here: https://yieldgiving.com/gifts/

Well MacKenzie Scott has given away $17 billion of her ~$60 billion over 5 years, so she’s not terrible.

Roosevelt walked so Taft could waddle.

None of these are pardons; they are commutations

He ate all DeBussy?

Really though, the level of imperialism apologizing I’ve seen has been pretty humorous on this platform. Like people will say with a straight face that we need to support our client state Israel to secure our regional interests.

Is this being federated from some platform other than Lemmy? Because I have literally never seen someone support that position here.

This would also have to pass the House, which it would not. I agree with Bernie’s statement and respect his choice to put the resolution forth on principle. I do not respect the article author or commentors who are either ignorant of basic U.S. civics, or choosing to be deliberately deceptive in order to place blame solely on Democrats.

1. The article argues campaigning with Liz Cheney seems to have no effect. Calling it an “electoral fiasco,” especially in the headline, clearly implies that it was detrimental in a significant way.
2. The evidence that the rallies were ineffective is comparing Harris’s results against Biden’s. This is terrible analysis. This should be at least a difference-in-difference comparison (the difference in the change vs Biden, using similar counties that were/weren’t visited). Useful evidence that their analysis actually works would be applying it to strategies they think were positive, and showing the relative improvement there.

An article about how we all need to come together opens with a salvo against all of their allies. Beyond parody

Sisyphean Effort is actually a thing

Nah, that’s another cut up with very little of the interview

Humans have honored the dead since before homo sapiens. Laws can be complicated, contradictory, and confusing; respecting the dead is clear and primal.

Yeah, this probably won’t change a lot of minds, but some folks will see there is something wrong about a man who would dishonor the dead to celebrate himself.

For anyone wondering, this doesn’t actually work, because the bananas will realize they are upside-down.

Definite agree with the core of what you’re saying, though for US and EU (and to a lesser degree “High income countries”), the numbers are quite close, as clean grid energy is significantly outpacing electric vehicle adoption (and EVs rely on a clean grid to be clean).

If you return the tax to everyone as a dividend, then it becomes progressive, while still encouraging less polluting options

Effective systemic change requires changing the systems, not individual people or companies. If we want less virgin plastic or gasoline burning, it needs to be less profitable to extract oil, process it, and sell it to people who want it, otherwise somebody is going to do that.
