That came up on Alex Jones recently. So, uh, sorry, your sister is likely listening to InfoWars or something adjacent. My condolences.

I wouldn't be so sure about humanity surviving. It all depends on how many tipping points we hit and how bad warming actually gets. There's no way we stop at 3°. Existence for any humans will be incredibly fraught.
Oh, you mean the people who quoted Hitler? - https://apnews.com/article/moms-for-liberty-adolf-hitler-newsletter-quote-bcce698e901b9e782970030ccd710512
Yeah, they're real model citizens.
The ones holding up the process aren't really siding with Democrats, they're just against theit own party's nominees for various reasons. It's an important distinction.
It may not be your intention, but this comment feels like it's blaming Democrats for not going along when Republicans have the majority and keep failing to put someone up that they can all agree on. Several Republicans have been pushing the narrative that Democrats are to blame for their own party's disfunction.
It gets even better when you realize the US hasn't actually formally declared war since WWII. We don't do "war" anymore. But we still kill a helluva lot of people. Mostly civilians.
While I understand the sentiment, it honestly seems misplaced. We should be able to have completely honest conversations about the dead, even if it is conversations about the terrible things they did. A lot of dead people deserve people speaking ill about them.
Why do you say that? I know she accomplished a lot, but I'm tired of retroactively heaping praise on people when we can often learn from their failings. We can acknowledge what she did while still using her failings to hopefully learn a lesson.
I hope she's remembered for not retiring when she should have (she shouldn't have run for this last term, and honestly probably the term before that) and derailing judicial appointments. She should be remembered as a failure and a cautionary tale. I hope she inspires other old politicians to think about whether their legacies will be tarnished as well.
Since they moved the kids across state lines at one point, doesn't that mean the FBI could get involved? Sounds like trafficking to me
I'm failing to understand why you list "no fault divorce" with the rest of those. Why do you think that's a bad thing?
Sure, but DeSantis won a statewide election, unaffected by gerrymandering. So even though FL's congress has more extreme people because of that, they're not the only ones who enacted this law. They didn't have to elect a fascist as a state, but they did.
Saying that, I do feel bad for the Floridians who didn't vote for him and get fucked over because of this. But anyone who voted for DeSantis deserves whatever they get from his cruel actions.
Dan Olson and Cody Johnston are absolute treasures
