What good is making her resign going to do? Don’t get me wrong, she should be gone, but Trump put her there and she’s doing what he wants her to do. Forcing Trump to swap one stooge for another doesn’t accomplish anything except resetting the “Trump’s AG did something bad” counter, which might actually be useful to him but doesn’t help us at all. Focus on the guy who put this obviously unqualified person in charge of the DOJ.
If you’re gonna game the system that hard just get divorced and keep living together. Remove the uncertainty.
I don’t know about you guys but I’m tired of taking the high road. These fascist pricks have no morals. They know there are lines polite and reasonable people won’t cross and they use that to their advantage. They have no such constraints. Every hesitation on our part exposes another crack that they can slip through and avoid consequences. Threats of social repercussions, financial penalties, and prison sentences will not win this fight. The only way this ends is if we take it all the way.
Charge them with treason, execute them, and redistribute their wealth to the people. Anything less will only allow this disease of insatiable greed and lust for power to fester and one day return. Even going that far will only keep such men at bay for a generation or two. It will take constant vigilance and unwavering commitment to the principles of equality and justice to keep them out of power. We got lazy and gave them an opening. If we want to get rid of them we have to be willing to be as ruthless as they are in pursuit of that goal.
Not exactly. RCS is the default when enabled but it’s supposed to fall back to MMS when RCS is not supported. For whatever reason my messages are not doing that, but only in most of my group chats. Messages to individuals and even a couple of group chats work fine using MMS.
Ah fair enough. Thanks for the clarification.
No SMS or MMS either?
Same, been having some issues with receiving group texts but overall the switch has been much smoother that I expected. MicroG works for all the use cases I’ve tested except RCS but I don’t really care about that.
Have you had issues receiving group messages on e/OS? RCS is borked but I figured that would be the case. Not getting group texts is a problem though and I’ve tried every solution I can find but nothing seems to work.
To be fair, parenting is a pretty shitty gig. Expectations are high and support is low. People judge everything you do, especially those who have never done it themselves. Even with good kids its a thankless slog most of the time. God help you if you get a hard one.
How else are we going to know who is at the door? I mean, I guess we could open it but that’s boring
I think that any solution in the form of a formal government regulation will be subject to that kind of corruption, and real solutions need to be found elsewhere.
I think that’s a fair statement as it relates to the current US government but I don’t think that’s a valid general philosophy. I agree that our current priority should certainly be to implement a government that can be trusted to regulate things effectively. If that isn’t taken care of first then the rest doesn’t matter. As evidenced by, well, everything happening right now haha. Still, the ultimate goal should be government action on this topic because we cannot solve the problem at an individual level. Some people can have better outcomes than others but there’s no level playing field without government intervention.
Its perfectly relevant to my point, which is that the government is already involved in the sort of behavior we’re discussing. If we accept that preventing societal damage, or promoting social well being, or whatever else you want to call it, is a part of what the government exists to do, then why would something like preventing mega corporations from hijacking the development of children fall outside its purview?
I notice you left education off that list
How is this argument different from “it’s not the governments job to provide healthcare / education / social services”
To be fair, at that point we already knew he was a rapist. The new information was the gay stuff. Of course that’s going to be the most interesting part to everyone
I’m certainly not shocked that Trump posted some racist shit
You could say the same about ballet. Participants in both are athletic but they aren’t playing a sport
Or we could collectively decide that we want a government that can be trusted to manage something as fundamental as drinking water infrastructure without poisoning people and vote accordingly. If you can’t trust your government to provide basic public services then what is the point of having a government at all?
Knowing who they are is irrelevant until someone does something about it. Up to this point no one has.
I suppose that’s true but it does seem like it would be more effective to spend the effort tying her failures directly to Trump rather than letting him offer her up as the sacrificial lamb. People seem to think he’s good at delegation and “business stuff” so hammer him with the mistakes his people make and force voters to remember how highly he once spoke of them.
