most of them are being mined in politically unstable or to western civilization unfriendly countries, with terrible effect on the environment.
Has that ever stopped everyone, though?
In the end, I don’t care what lifestyle my job can afford if I don’t have the time to enjoy it.
3 years can be a very long time, though.

There is no US without slavery.
War crimes are the bread and butter of any respectable US president.

I could see voluntary chemical castration and psychiatric support as a viable middle ground between lex talionis and a 21st-century legal system. Physical castration? Get the hell out of here.
People just missed the whole chunk of history in which Enlightment thinkers argued against corporeal punishment and the body of research that disprove its efficacy as a deterrent. Nice /s
You see, your issue is that you are using your brain instead of asking for brutal retribution
It would be nice if you didn’t spew populist bullshit on the web, but here we are.
What the shit? Are they going to bring back “an eye for an eye” next?
I would keep on doing my job (teaching English as a foreign language), but I could get rid of all the pointless stuff such as grades, tests etc etc
Because the power of inflicting pain without consequences is the main reason why most people become cops.
Because even though there’s a video showing that a cop killed a man, everybody (even cops) is innocent until proven guilty. Otherwise, you could get into a trial for slander and for having caused distress.
He’s trying to legislate, goddammit. All it takes is typing “Bernie Sanders legislation” in a search engine, and use your goddamn eyes. Here’s what he’s trying to do:
My first amendment would ensure that we are not providing any more offensive military aid to Netanyahu’s war machine while he continues to violate U.S. and international law. This amendment would not touch funding for the Iron Dome or other purely defensive systems, but it would end aid to a war machine which has already killed 34,000 Palestinians and wounded 77,000, 70 percent of whom are women and children. And, right now, as we speak, hundreds of thousands of children face starvation as a result of that war machine.
The second amendment that I am offering would remove the prohibition on funding for UNRWA, the backbone of the humanitarian relief operation in Gaza and the only organization that experts say has the capability to provide the humanitarian aid that is desperately needed. Israel has alleged that 12 UNRWA employees out of 30,000 were involved in the Hamas terrorist attack on October 7. […] That is being investigated and it should be. But you don’t allow thousands of children to starve because of the alleged violations and actions of 12 people.
They would have taken him out as soon as he started damaging the bottom line
