Definitely tea party roots, libertarians have been against it for ages.

Reagan really kicked is off on the trajectory of privatization, trusting corporations to bed good stewards of the people. It was a steady trajectory really kicked in to high gear with the recession since blood was on the water

Now the right hates any part of the government that doesn’t hold a gun, and would rather drink poison than impede corporate profits.

I hope this works out. Local news media outside of huge cities is 3 nextdoor posts in a trenchcoat.

We need her in the legislature. Presidents fuck off after 4-8 years, we can’t spend one of our progressives so early

It’s concerning how this pseudoscience is getting so much traction, and we’ll be left with a bunch of nonsensical privacy regulation. Granted I’m happy to err towards too much privacy regulation, but can imagine other privacy issues getting less traction.

The actual video for your own judgement:

I’m not shocked an old man missed a prompt to speak in a low stakes phone call. Mid-sentence in a high-stakes optics-focused debate is the bigger gaffe, but equally normal for an old man.

Ages ago someone wrote a bash script that would calculate your “stallman score”, essentially checking the license of every package in your system.

I think the wheel of history turns on a greater axle than a presidential election. Look at Europe, and the rest of the global north. The machine of neoliberal imperialism has created global instability and climate crisis, and the rich are locking down their spoils with right wing nationalism.

Trump was a fluke, he’d have had more bites at the apple in 2020/2024 and eventually get a win. If not him, then some evangelical fascist.
