I don't want to be conspiratorial but this helps stop the class awakening all of this was helping bring about. The more we know about him, the more people will identify or not identify with him and then we're back to culture war being the conversation instead of class war.

3b. He loves having these fights because he can say 'BUT THE IMMIGRANTS' and MAGA, because they don't actually understand anything about the American constitution or law, will back him because they'll believe it's just a bunch of liberals protecting criminal aliens.

Last time Trump separated families, do you think this time they'll play nice? But sure, keep you head in the sand.

Hey you're messing with our class solidarity posting that

Agreed, it won't stop the radical right GQPers from doing their evils. Plus it will alienate more people on the immigration issue - what the USA needs is real solutions and people would see this for what it would be, political gamesmanship.

Besides a one time donation y'all might also consider cancelling your Spotify and NYT and WashPo subs and putting those monthly payments to NPR/PBS/other great independant or local news sources.

They tamed those sandworms from birth

Wow that might have helped actually. My third party dock never needed any troubleshooting like that though so I've stuck with that.

I mean the social contract is not always a physical thing and not always by explicit consent. Just by carrying out our part of the system and accepting the benefits of it (infrastructure/protection/stability) we are implicitly consenting to it.

That being said, I absolutely agree with you that it is always slanted heavily toward the wealthy and not to benefit the working class but only to keep them in line.

It quite often didn't recognize the HDMI output so I'd have to try all kinds of things like rebooting and unplugging/replugging until it would finally output to my screen. Also had some trouble getting it to start charging a few times.

I have had problems with the official dock so I got a cheap third party replacement and it has been flawless.

I got a cheap third party stand/dock and use my Deck more in the living room than I do portably now.
