I’ll never understand how lobbying became a thing. It should have been shut down as anti democracy the second it was proposed

Nah I’m just gonna leave this instance and go to one where I don’t see you pedantic pricks
So you’re butthurt that people tried to make it a legitimate conversation?
Jesus Christ lemmy has some fuckin morons
Because my roommates dumbass mother keeps waking me up after 5 hours of sleep and I’m too livid to fall back asleep
What fucking comparison are you looking for?
The rest of the public has been manipulated by oil barons who constantly push these fear mongering talking points.
It is safer in every way.
You act like Homer Simpson is real and that’s how nuclear power plants operate. In the modern age unless it’s just gross incompetence it’s been safer for decades.
Oh and if you want those safety regulations to ever get better you have to keep putting money into them. You’re not gonna get progress by ignoring them.
In fact that’s the only reason nuclear power isn’t more prevalent because the average citizen is so blinded by oil propaganda they refuse anything to do with it.
That’s why we call it “late stage” capitalism.
Because the environmental damage caused by the largest nuclear disasters in history is still nothing like the damage from fossil fuels.
Not just that but the fossil fuel industry’s history is full of much worse disasters than any nuclear plant.
If you were to truly compare them based just off safety it’s no contest. Nuclear power is cleaner and safer
One of the presidents of the US did it regularly and he never got shot for it.
The kids only real crime was being too drunk to understand what was going on.
Because it’s a special type of cognitive dissonance to be a POC and run for the side of racism.
Just like Republicans gays who act shocked that the party of homophobia is homophobic. It’s relevant because it just shows how full of shit he is
He’s a terrible person and when he dies may he rot in piss.
I’d care about him going senile if him being sane wasn’t as detrimental as it was.
Empathy is a good thing but let’s save it for the people who actually deserve it and not old ass racist pieces of shit like him
Probably because most people don’t go around saving copies of these examples. You notice it make a mental note and then forget until someone brings it up again.
I sure as hell don’t go around documenting everything that bothers me about a tv show. In fact I usually do the opposite and try to ignore them.
I love when people try to pull the empathy card.
There are people on this planet who do not deserve empathy nor the benefit of the doubt. Corrupt politicians are some of those people.
They should focus on leaving the country
That’s literally all you said…
Ah yes it’s making Russia so much money which is why their economy is in perfect condition and the ruble is worth more than ever!
Yeah but as an American I’m the one that has to deal with the smell long after the sandwich is gone
Yes because that’s the easiest solution for people enduring violent oppression.
“jUsT lEaVe!!11!”
Yep it’s that simple. Forget your lives forget your families forget making where you live a better place JUST LEAVE! 🤓
Ah yes protests against the rich have never been useful before
I get not wanting to see it everywhere but you also have to understand that this is really world news. This is a central figure in American politics that is actually going to trial for an attempt to overthrow American democracy.
This is a historical moment that will probably be talked about for decades regardless of which direction it goes.
Because that’s exactly what it is. It’s a way for the rich to force the policies they want while quelching any policies they don’t.
