Very directly. My company just had layoffs as a direct result of Trump. The company has contracts with the government and Trump cancelled many of them. The Legal team is also trying to figure out if the company will be paid for some work that was already completed.

The tarrifs and threat of tariffs and general chaotic instability Trump is driving around tarrifs is already affecting our supply chain and pricing. We try to make long-term agreements with suppliers instead of doing spot buys, and they are working assumptions of even more tarrifs into their pricing as a buffer.

And how would one know with 100% certainly a person killed in self-defense despite being labeled a murderer by the applicable legal system?

It assumes an impossible perfect knowledge. Or if not perfect knowledge, some percentage of error, making the murderer of murderers guilty of occasionally murdering an innocent self-defense killer.

Murdering all murderers can’t conceivably be “self-defense”, making it unlawful.

Murdering murderers makes one a murderer. If one is going to ignore any context and mitigating factors, no, murdering murderers does not result in net good.

E.g., people who have killed in self defense have been tagged as murderers. Murdering them is not at all a good thing (in my moral framework, at least).

E.g. #2, murdering one person for Reasons does not necessarily mean a murderer is going to murder again. So murdering them adds to the overall murder tally without necessarily preventing any additional murders.

There has to be some element of preventing future murders, not just retribution of past murders, for this to even be a debate, IMO. And then there’s the bar of simply locking them up being insufficient to prevent them murdering in the future.

Facist bootlicker says “what”?

Yep. Remind him that Kamala Harris has half Indian ancestry and he’ll be ready to colonize it right after Panama, Greenland, and Canada.

My uncle, from the time he was a little boy, liked nothing more than farming and gardening. He has one friend and they talk exclusively about growing stuff. He had to be forced to finish high school because all he wanted to do was wrench on a tractor. He barely talks unless it’s farming related.

He apparently takes after other men in the family, always one or two per generation, who were pretty much mute except when it came to their special interest. And they were 100% focused on their special interest.

Back in the day, it was “Uncle Bob just has those family genes. We get one of them every once in a while. He sure is a helluva good farmer.” Today he would be diagnosed with autism.

Yep. And adopted a white baby. Like, intentionally, specifically a white baby.

The slideshow of the lives of the couple included photos from a Black Lives Matter protest. One of the two getting married is a cop. Then I noticed Thin Blue Line decor around the gift table. The other half of the couple is Black.

Lol, no. They were able to have a house and multiple kids on one salary.

You know women does not equal extrovert, I hope?

“Women be bitchy unless I am bitchy first” is just too neatly packaged for internet woman-hating bait. Is this AI or someone trying to karma-farm reddit style?
