Dont forget big oil has spent an ungodly amount of money on keeping the general populace skeptical of reality. Punishment for that is long over due and I have no hope it ever will.

Seems reasonable to me. Especially with all the corporate capture of our media and how the DNC gets to have just enough time to pick a candidate if he drops right now.

y’all got a name of this Maine progressive candidate waiting in the wings?

Im Massachusetts the regulatory capture, assisted by neoliberals, requires large sums of the populations money to go to utility companies that are not happy to have their natural gas investments be less profitable.

Yeah but the bamboo is going to damage more than just the data center.

FYI, As an American you can work on making the dream happen by hijacking primaries and the party conventions. It what the tea party did to get MAGA.

Twice

IF we had gone too far the GOP wouldn’t be spending hand over fist to keep people from voting. The dems wouldnt need to pressure a union leader to drop a wealth tax if we were too far it would just be dropped.

Here we are bickering about AIPAC buying our politicians but its more of a time share with big oil, big ag, and wallstreet.

One pedal plus adaptive CC is going to blow your mind. I love it!

Naw one pedal drive is this neat EV feature you can drive with where if you take your foot off the accelerator the car starts to full regentl brake until it stops. Once you use it in a city you realize how much easier a car is to operate when you dont need to swap between pedals a ton. Its also nice because when you do need an aggressive brake, the time moving from pedals has already initiated a deceleration leading to a faster slow down.

Did VW ever implement one pedal drive? Total non starter for me a few years ago (got a volvo instead).

monopoly enforcement in the US is non-existent to shit like AI, so why should it apply to things we like?

Everyone is mad at AIPAC but they are late to the game while private equity has owned the US government since they got scared by occupy wallstreet.

Hi I suggest you crack open a history book and look at why ford didn’t pay his employees in peanuts.

As many of us that understand the problem, there is a white supremacist culture in the southern states invested in oligarchy that act as a rope around our collective necks. idk how to fix it but we cant do anything when they control the senate and through a mix of gerrymander and well funded propaganda networks, the house.

The cities are impressive but imo the rural areas are where, I as an American, are most impressed. Middle of no where charging infrastructure and large walk-able communities put the US rural areas to shame.

Have you ever been to europe? I don’t think you have any appreciation for how successful the regulations in the US around nicotine addiction have worked.

They own enough politicians to keep any possible change under committee review indefinitely. IF we did pass a law they also own enough judges that it would die in a shadow docket. I love oligarchy, basically anything broken is broken because some rich ass hole is paying for it to be kept that way.

The GOP would already had the emergency session called up to pass a law to get around whatever the court just ruled. I can’t wait for dems to do jack shit becuase a republican friendly judge told them too.
