The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and Black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or Black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and Blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.

-- Nixon advisor John Ehrlichman

It's quite the success, in fact.

You'd probably get thrown in jail for contempt of court, but all you'd have to do as a defense attorney for this guy is get the family member of a cancer patient who got denied by UHC to testify and explain jury nullification. Surely 1 person in 12 would be willing to do the right thing.

The party refused to pressure Breyer & RBG to step down. Obama refused to play hardball with Garland.

Biden negotiated with himself and cut debt forgiveness to 10K. Then the SC strikes it down ~~, and he throws his hands up and walks away~~. I'm old enough to remember when Trump's obviously unconstitutional muslim ban got banned and he rewrote it and tried again until it stuck. It didn't fully take until the third try. Then he expanded it twice.

[Edit: I looked it up and he did give it another go, my b]

I'm sorry, who allowed Trump to pack the court? The Debt Collective?

Fish is great! I used it for a while a long time ago but I ended up stopping because a few tools expected your shell to be set to something posix compatible. I wonder if the support is better now, I should give it a shot

The most useful bash command of all: sudo apt-get -y install zsh; chsh -s zsh; exec zsh ;)

I kid, I kid! I actually like bash a lot. I really prefer it for scripting. Arrays are extremely useful but not specified in posix. Bash is pretty ubiquitous though.

I'm also curious if there are any bash partisans who prefer it over zsh and for what reasons.

I prefer the spinoff, "Whose parking spot is it anyway?"

Musk overpaid a ton for twitter because he made a stupid joke, tried to back out, and got forced to follow through in the courts. It is of course possible that these were Machiavellian machinations with benefits a rube like me could not possibly understand. Or, and hear me out here, he is just a buffoon who fell ass backwards into something that ended up working for him.

Either way, he is a serious danger. But the thing that makes him really dangerous is his wealth, a thing he did little to nothing to deserve.

Because this IS a class war and our side has been consistently losing for over three full decades.

100%. I'll just point out that the Democratic party leadership is very wealthy and their class interests align with someone like Musk. Maybe one reason we're losing is because the people we choose to fight don't want to win.
