For me, I hand write checks weekly. That 3 percent credit card fee can add up quickly. Invoice me, and get the total payed at the end of the month. Also handy for person to person transactions, where cash is impractical.

I think you dont understand. To rewrite that card would be a big red buisiness card that says “you are fucked”.

Thats it.

Arm yourselves and the people being hunted? Are you fucking kidding? Thats literal ammunition to the opposition. If you had your way, a bunch of illegal immigrants now are using illegal guns to shoot americans.

Your advice legitimizes the “invasion” of the other. It does the opposite of what you want. Your solution galvanizes the right to point and say “see, they are all murderous criminals” get them.

For fucks sake think for a moment. This is the absolute dumbest take ive ever seen.

Over the past 3 months, i have disributed over 1500 red cards. los tarjetas rojas. They explain immigrant rights and what to do if ice shows up. https://www.ilrc.org/red-cards-tarjetas-rojas

In a normal world, thats enough to help protect them. Its a little step i know, but its something i could do to help.

Now it is a lie and i mislead my neighbors and friends. They are not safe.

Next step?

Yeah were are at the point where the cult has so much control, that they can say whatever they want and completely pave over every option. Contradiction? Not really. Infighting? Nah, theres always someone on my side. Regrets? None. If they cover every option, they can never be wrong.

We have hit the “pick and chose your own adventure” of identity politics, where you cant argue anymore, because they stand for… everything and nothing all at once.

Let your imagination run wild.

I know ted is a piece of shit, but that post, and literally everyone else’s response to it, including booker who referenced the post in the last 30 minutes before the record was broken, knew that it was a joke.

Ted tried it already and failed to hit the record. He knows how hard it is.

That was an assholes way of appreciating something, without admitting that he has respect for it.

For fucks sake.

Ill be honest, thats a victory in itself. Creating a crack isnt a loss. Its progress. As small as it may be. A damn doesnt fail because of a meteor hitting it. Its a crack here, a fracture there. It adds up.

The resiliency of that mentality isnt impenetrable.

I understand what you are saying. But i believe that it is not really representative of what is happening or needs to happen to the usa as a whole.

Brownback just wasnt strong enough of a virus to build immunity to this sickness.

He may have been an slight inoculation for some people, but the immune system as a whole went on and then forgot about the weak virus.

what is happening now is a bigger bug. Lets just hope the fever doesnt kill us.

Yeah i think we will soon be far along enough that my personal feelings about this, in comparison to a random unpopular kansas govenor, are irrelevant and not a fair comparison. Its hardly a fair comparison right now.

I had to look up brownback tbh.

The “sam brownback concept” isnt a thing. But there are real examples of the yoyo slinging back hard enough to hit someone in the face and make them reconsider letting out the string again.

Im worried that at this point, for all the destruction and permanent damage hes done, that we may just need him to stick around and break more things.

If he kicks off tomorrow, we could have this happen again. It all gets washed under the rug and hes replaced with more subtle powers. It only took 4 years for the majority of the usa to forget the first round of damage he caused, after all.

But then again, if he lasts too long, we risk never recovering.

There is a sick, nihilistic balance to all this now imo. I want a guarantee that we dont slip down this road again. And unfortunately more pain may be the only way to guarantee it for the next few generations.

I feel dirty even saying it. But in my gut, i believe it.
