Also, protesting provides training for organizing and brings up voices and leaders that are needed for future actions to be successful.
The leaders we read about during past revolts didn't just appear on the front lines magically. In the past many revolts took years or decades to transform the territory. With sometimes several generations of leaders playing important parts in the process.
Individualism is not an American value
E pluribus unum.
I prefer an income cap, 1 million a year, at a standard tax percentage, then all income above 1mil is taxed 100%. Capital gains are treated as income. Any profit is.
But trading value that has already been taxed is not counted as income. So selling a 10mil house for 11mil is only taxed 1mil, as the 10mil was already taxed as income.
Same for corps, but with a 10mil profit cap a year.
The low cap discourages businesses from merging into massive conglomerates that control too much of anything.
We don't actually need national or international businesses.
Of course I also approve of making for-profits outright illegal. So the cap wouldn't even be relevant for businesses anyway, as they'd all be public services, and any 'profits' they made a year would just be put towards more, or better services, or improved employee compensation packages, or subsidizing costs in the future until prices balance back out, or refunds (all depending on the business/industry).
I'll donate a blade to lower any cost concerns.
Some rope too.
Anyone else?
Anyone have some trees they're willing to have milled for the frame?
No, I assure you, I am a loser... But I never supported Trump in anything, and certainly not as a politician.
I would support however his effort to furtilize a random field in Montana with his corpse. But nothing else really.
Well, it's kinda impossible to know for sure, as anyone not targeted by the Hitler regime as enemies was still discouraged from publicly, or even privately, disagreeing with the party.
But there was likely some poll or support data available to scholars at different points that would give an idea of actual support at those points.
I don't have those details, and am not who you were asking, but I did hear support dwindled as the US entered the war. And, logically, it was probably higher when he was elected then when the war started getting real nasty.
Most people start not liking their leadership when their leaders actions cause them personal distress.
I think I read this somewhere before.
However, it might just be that I'm remembering my own personal experience with reality.
Hard to tell for sure.

Please be careful with those absolutes. Thanks
Because ultimately people want our society to progress, get better, so that the quality of their lives can improve.
Holding back our progress isn't healthy.
Reverting to less functional practices is dumb.
These are basically our political choices any time we vote on something that's not purely about the methods we employ to achieve necessary tasks.
Evolve, remain stagnate, or devolve/regress.
Well, it's technically true. Pedophilia, attraction to children (prepubescent youths), is generally best addressed with acknowledgement, treatment, and management.
Sexual assault, and rape, and predator practices are the crimes identified pedophiles are typically found participating in if their attraction to kids isn't addressed appropriately beforehand.
Ya'll don't really think being attracted to kids is a crime itself do you? Or that there aren't thousands, or tens of thousands, of people out there that are attracted to kids and just don't act on it, or haven't been identified?
Pedophilia, though specific in nature, is a similar subject to mental health in general, in how it's treated by society. As it becomes more acceptable to admit to having mental health conditions, the instances of those conditions leading to dire circumstances dimishes.
Be more proactive, and less reactive.
Note: though it should be clear enough, I do want to specifically state that this message in no way promotes or supports criminal actions taken towards children or knowingly disregarding such actions if the assailants are rich, or any other such nonsense.
Like being tall, or black, or gay, being a pedophile is a state of being, not an action, and people should not be attacked for their state of being, full stop. Crimes they commit are another matter entirely.
I'm jealous of all y'all who know why you got bans.
I've gotten warning and temp bans, but they never specify why. They never include the content. Just saying promoting this or that is very unclear, like how, when, where? Did I actually?
I always just ignore them and carry on on alts for a while.
Their shit is so stupid. But there's a lot of useful content on Reddit. I still hit up old house and DIY type groups, cause I own an old house, and specific tech groups because of the tech I use, but I don't miss the rest.
