You don’t see how the military operating in darkness with no oversight has ended up in disaster time and time again?

Fine. They can hide the stuff they don’t force me to pay for. I have a right to know where my money is going.
Fun fact: there was only 1 woman oompa loompa in the gene wilder version of Willy Wonka, and the actress’s name was Pepe Poupee
Probably not much, her hand is on her thigh. Though I guess it’s possible that a goddess has articulated hair. If you zoom in on this chess piece her finger is clearly extended and going between her legs
Sometimes I see a nude depiction and wonder to myself if it’s artsy or pornographic. In this case she’s fingering herself, so that answers that question
You’re acting like popular vote matters. What you’re saying only applies in like 3-5 states. I live in Connecticut. Bidens going to win Connecticut. It’s not going to be a significant help to him, because our puny electoral votes are never ever ever ever ever going to decide an election. It does not matter who I vote for in the presidential race. Lots of people are in the same boat as me, probably most of the country. I suggest you save your shit for Floridians and Ohioans.
If you’re talking about the fairness doctrine, it required broadcast networks to devote equal time to both sides of controversial issues. It never applied to opinion shows, which are like 2/3rds of the content on 24 hour cable news networks, and it never applied to cable. You could bring it back tomorrow and it wouldn’t change anything about Fox News.
There is not, nor has there ever been, a legal ‘standard of truth’ for news media. There shouldn’t be. If you trust the government to decide what is true and punish the media for reporting otherwise, what’s to stop trump or the next trump from weaponizing that? That is why the first amendment exists.
I’m not pushing it as a two sides issue. I haven’t seen anyone in the Democratic establishment advocating for media censorship like this. I’m talking about you, as an individual. You’re not a side.
The massive polarisation in the media needs to be addressed and the outright blatant lies told by the Rightwing goons needs to be legally stopped. ‘Free Speech’ my ass. They need to be labelled ‘opinion’ or ‘entertainment’ or something other than pretending to be ‘fair’ or ‘news’.
Replace “rightwing goons” with “leftwing commies” and this is exactly Trump’s plan lmao. Do you not see how that is a problem?
He was originally fleeing rape charges in Sweden so yeah, he still would have had to hide.
And serial rapist, let’s not forget that
It’s a delicate balance between courting the black vote and not alienating their base of ignorant rednecks and full on white supremacists
Tbf he wasn’t given an opportunity. Society wouldn’t have allowed him to introduce jim crow, throw 200,000 Japanese Americans into concentration camps, or commit genocide on the choctaw. I’m sure he would do all those things and more if the pesky deep state wasn’t holding him back.
You’ve got to admire his commitment to not giving a shit what he says or how it looks. Not exactly a quality I’m looking for in my president though.
This is the year of Linux on the desktop, and that is good for Bitcoin.
More likely a solution nobody is happy with but everyone can live with. Your point stands though.
You equivocated between the two as if they are both lock step voting the same on all legislation
I did no such thing. You asked when they ever agree, implying that they never do, and I gave several examples of them agreeing on some pretty bad legislation. Maybe you’re confusing me with someone else. This was our first interaction.
you had to go back to W W 2
No I didn’t. SOPA and the DMCA were a few years ago. Patriot act gets renewed every few years with bipartisan support. KOPA is brand new. You’re latching onto the oldest example I gave because it fits your narrative and ignoring the others. Stop that. It makes you look like a dipshit.
I answered your question accurately. Instead of moving the goalposts after the fact, maybe you should ask a different question to begin with.
What policies or legislation overlaps between these two?
Off the top of my head, the Patriot act, the Iraq war resolution, DMCA, SOPA, KOPA, support for israel’s genocide, Japanese American interment in WW2, and the Gulf of tomkin resolution. Only some of the most dangerous policies in this nations history, no big whoop.
Then don’t make me pay for it. That’s my intelligence, I bought it. So did you. What else do you pay for that you’re never allowed to see or even know about?
