@ksorbs I'm not defending what they did because it's absolutely horrifying But it's not only blacks who do it but this is the agenda they're pushing to make us hate/avoid each other. Instead of blaming the colour, blame the people who raised them, That's where everything starts.

Now that Cesar Chavez is credibly accused of sexual abuse of numerous women, including 12 and 13-year-old girls, I presume we are going to be releasing any and all government files pertaining to him, scrutinize his relationships with other labor leaders and the Democratic Party, publish his private correspondence, and consider as tainted or (possibly even complicit) anyone who met with him or traveled with him, particularly in the presence of young girls. That's how this goes, right?

She defended a pedophile and a rapist because it was politically expedient. She did it for her own cold, calculated benefit. She is complicit in the victimization of children and has come clean on her deathbed only now that her foul idol’s crimes have come to light. Rename every street that bears his name and banish this evil woman from history.

Most people don’t live to see 96 years old. Dolores Huertas did. And for most of her life she had to uphold a legacy of a man that didn’t deserved to be upheld. Protected his life at the expense of her and the children of his that she secretly bore.

@Weichaus @wholemars @ABC7 FSD was turned off more than four seconds before the crash. So yes. And this is a trial. We won’t have to wait long. We can check back when it’s over and see who was right.

So scary! A Tesla Cybertruck crashed into a concrete barrier while in self-driving mode on a Houston, Texas. The truck, without warning, tried to drive off an overpass, The driver tried to take control, but it crashed into the barrier.

This is misleading on many levels, but let me point out one obvious falsehood. Cuba has not been "blockaded" as when, for example, the Royal Navy blockaded French ports during the Napoleonic Wars. It could not do business with the US, in part because communists stole American property on the island. But the island could do business with the other 199 countries in the UN. The reason why Cuba is desperately poor, therefore, is not because of the US blockade, but because its socialist system produces next to nothing and the island has, therefore, next to NOTHING to sell.

Lower class people embracing novel social deviance initially engaged in only by elite has been happening since 70s (sexual promiscuity, single motherhood, drugs). High functioning people can abandon social norms and continue to function. Others can’t and fall apart. Myron Magnet described this phenomenon in “The Dream and the Nightmare” which was supposedly a huge influence on George W Bush and “compassionate conservatives” like Michael Gerson.

Something that often gets missed in all this, apart from @LadiesOfReddit “dinergoth” discourse, is how this is so concentrated in the lower class. It seems to be happening not in our major left wing urban centers, who you might otherwise think would be most inclined to it for ideological reasons, but in flyover country. In the home towns you go back to on your summers home from your fancy college, you see your third quartile friend wearing cat ears and long sleeves with thumb holes behind the grocery checkout. The elites seem to unleash these deviations from normality, but let them pass by without effect, while the lower class gets one shotted by it, having no immunity. Like picking up smoking when celebrities who would never touch cigarettes pretend to on TV.

In 2016, 87 % of "very liberal" people said using violence wasn't justified to achieve political goals. Down to 67% by 2020. Drop of almost 20 points. That is huge. In 2016, 93% of "very conservative" people said violence was never justified. By 2020, that's up to 96%

The Rabbit Hole@TheRabbitHole

Liberals are more likely than Conservatives and Moderates to think it's justified for citizens to use violence to achieve political goals. Young Liberals are especially open to violence.

@MatthewDelCarlo @RokoMijic To be clear, what I’m talking about doesn’t have any issues with transmission or storage. You can store synthetic hydrocarbons in barrels and tanks, transport them over existing oil and gas infrastructure, and burn them in existing cars and power plants.

Matthew Del Carlo@MatthewDelCarlo·
Solar works best on homes and rooftops - using existing space and cutting transmission losses. Large-scale (utility/ground-mounted) solar runs into real engineering limits: high maintenance on vast arrays, long-distance transmission needs, and massive storage requirements to handle intermittency. It's far less energy-dense than nuclear or natural gas. Solar needs 18–50x more land per unit of actual electricity produced (factoring in capacity factors ~20-25% vs. nuclear's 90%+). Natural gas and especially nuclear deliver reliable base-load power with compact footprints and lower ongoing maintenance/fuel logistics. For a resilient grid, we need diversified sources—solar where it fits best, paired with firm power like nuclear and gas.

Roko 🐉@RokoMijic·
What Brett isn't telling you is that the power from the solar panel must be used instantly. If you want just 10 days of storage for a 400W solar panel you have to pay about $10,000 for batteries. The barrel of oil is its own battery. And if you have to put that panel in Southern England on land that would otherwise have been used for housing, you are going to pay $12,000 for the land. So: - Panel ($92) - Batteries ($10,000) - Land ($12,000) You can see why oil is still competitive.
Brett Winton@wintonARK

a barrel of oil can provide as much electricity as a 400W solar panel does annually. a barrel of oil runs $92 and comes with a few minor logistical complications. this year the solar panel should run less than $90; you can order online, ships in a week.

@lawprofblawg Also no per curiams and no hidden votes. All justices must declare their vote aye or nay publicly on all matters before the court, including shadow dockets, cert grants/denials, etc.

Two fundamental changes that need to happen at SCOTUS: 1. There needs to be 13 Justices. 2. Vote counts should start with dissents. Looking forward to all the 6-7 decisions.
