@reddit_lies The suffering of man is both necessary and useful.

Suffering is not a reliable cornerstone for an ethics framework. Take "reduce suffering" to its logical conclusion and you arrive at Efilism, which argues since suffering requires sentience, the most ethical outcome is the extinction of all life.

@ManicZebra @greendragonhq Your flags say you are a stealer anyway.

@Glow_Lib @greendragonhq Georgia uses paper ballots. Which were handcounted at least once during the last election.

Trump is going to announce that the two Democratic senators of Georgia are illegitimate. He is announcing it himself rather than taking it to court to prove it because there is more power in keeping the conspiracy alive than to bring it to court and have it thrown out instantly.

@NickyFrank30 @sophia_surfs Good boy Joe.

@sophia_surfs Biden will back her

People don't want to hear it, but I genuinely think Kamala Harris will be the 2028 nominee. If there's a war or a recession, she will win; if there isn't, she will lose, regardless of how much of a hissy fit activists throw. The only thing standing in her way is polling that shows her losing to Vance or Rubio.

@TheLastSquatch Fiat iustitia ruat caelum!

BREAKING: Trump is planning to declare that Georgia's two senators, Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, are “illegitimate” because of “fraud.” Announcement could come as soon as tonight, per Washington Reporter.

@CNawrocki83510 @MikeOrlandPark @Mrbandot1 @bennyjohnson @DC_Reporter Name a case that was decided on the merits.

@MikeOrlandPark @Mrbandot1 @bennyjohnson @DC_Reporter Do you actually believe that? What’s it like to have such necrosis of the brain?

HUGE: President Trump is allegedly planning to announce that both Senators from Georgia, Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock are ILLEGITIMATE due to election fraud, per sources from @DC_Reporter This could be massive.

@SprouseBre29818 @greendragonhq I think he will break the rules if you keep saying he can't do anything about you breaking the rules.

@greendragonhq Even if they were illegitimate he couldn't bring it to court bc the statute of limitations is apparently up.

@CahillCarla @greendragonhq Right, the Vice President has the duty to expel them by vote of the Senate.

@greendragonhq a president cannot simply declare sitting U.S. senators illegitimate and remove them. Senators’ authority comes from their state’s election process and the Constitution.

@mavsmarie I encourage you to think separately about the fraud investigation in Georgia. Trump says a lot of dumb shit, but here it's very well supported by fact.

No fraud happened. And if Trump does this, this will literally trigger a Civil War. Ossoff and Rev Warnock are two of the most popular well liked Senators across bipartisan lines. They also get shit done to help the people. If you throw them out, it’s going to be the end of democracy as we know it.

@BTTreut @bonchieredstate Incorrect. It's a legal matter so it should be handled within the legal system.

@bonchieredstate Exactly. If there was hard evidence that there was fraud, this would’ve been released by the DOJ and the investigation or grand jury announced.

This feels forced. Like things are a bit shaky so, quick, throw some red meat to the diehards and get the influencers their clicks. Zero chance this goes anywhere.

@ArchStanton2112 @bonchieredstate Georgia is bad man. You'll see.

@bonchieredstate This is Mike Lindell level bullshit.

@CounterTyrannyX @OGYoshima Appeal to Extremes: Taking a reasonable premise and pushing it to its furthest, most catastrophic conclusion to prove it invalid.

@Glow_Lib @OGYoshima Slavery is cheaper than low-wage workers, yet I don't hear you advocating for that on behalf of "profits" and "greed and free market is good"... No there are limits. Importing infinity people from Africa, South Asia, or China is a dumb idea.

Why do tech companies hire H-1B workers when we have thousands of graduates in America? Are they really better at their jobs than we are? No. The primary reason H-1B workers are so popular is that the system creates a form of legal slavery. Think about it. Some H-1B workers may be paid less than the average for the same role. Many feel pressured to work overtime, avoid taking vacations, can't form unions, and don't even think to ask for higher wages. Why? Because if they lose their job, they can lose their legal status in the U.S. and may have to return to their home country. As a result, some workers endure poor treatment, labor violations, humiliation basically everything in the hope of eventually obtaining a Green Card and being able to bring their families from India to the United States. We Americans CAN'T DO THAT, we have stronger labor protections and greater freedom to change employers or negotiate for better pay and working conditions. It's time to end this abuse against American middle class. Every H1B is one American family without a breadwinner and there's millions of them. Enough is enough.

@CounterTyrannyX @OGYoshima I think the goal is to make money and one way to make more money is to pay your workers less.

@Glow_Lib @OGYoshima The goal of a market is to serve the people who defend this country and live in it. It is not to enrich laborers or corporations looking for the cheapest labor the fastest. A country with a billion laborers will always outcompete a poor person in your home country.

@CounterTyrannyX @OGYoshima You're gonna get a fucked up market if you put your thumb on the scale of labor prices.

Because there is a near-infinite number of competition from high-population countries. How socialists destroy economy is: they either (a) eliminate competition entirely, creating govt-to-govt or govt-to-business systems or (b) create hyper-competition, where you are now competing with an unlimited amount and will not get anything out of the competition. If you just started getting good at tennis, there's no point in forcing you to join a world competition, when you haven't even competed locally among neighbors or the city, or the state first.

@CounterTyrannyX @OGYoshima Why should Americans be exempt from competing in the labor market?

H1Bs are slaves, they can threaten them to work overtime. It also started with people who believe their own talented and skilled engineers are worthless. They believe humans are interchangeable, expensive parts substitutable with cheap parts. "My high-skill engineers won't let me replace 3 of my teams that he says are essential, but they're salary is so expensive... What if... What if I can hire foreigner low-skill engineers who will let me replace every expensive part of my business and hire fewer expensive senior-level engineers?"

@PJDeU2 @mattvanswol Good guesser. Lucky star.

@mattvanswol Heart attack, embolism, aortic dissection... people sometimes drop dead.

I’m sorry, but Lindsey Graham dying out of the blue like this doesn’t make any sense at all. We have him on camera yesterday looking perfectly healthy. None of this is making any sense…

@CoreyWriting She told the Jesus freaks to get lost. That's not a centrist.

Only people who inhabit social media believe Kamala was perceived as a moderate. She was seen by the public as very progressive, and Trump was seen as the moderate choice. Among the major reasons she lost were progressive policies on immigration, the border, social issues, and the economy. If she took actual centrist positions and said "boys don't belong in girls sports" she'd win way more votes in swing states. But progressives will never accept that, so they try to force white guys with leftist politics wearing flannels and swearing down our throats, because they believe this is what the median voter is looking for.

@DeepHouseBear @clarkaw Do they have a website?

@clarkaw Yet strangely you have had nothing to say about Islam having exactly the same views, to the point where 50% of Muslims think I should be in prison.

@AZHeidiP Not bad, it makes you look two years younger.

Why, yes, in fact I am wearing this today 100% because of the gorgeous dress the Princess of Wales wore today. We have very different body types, but A line dresses are my favorite

@DonnyApocalypse @brad_polumbo Johnny came marching home.

@brad_polumbo You know I could be sympathetic to this if not for the radical left trying to prevent the will of the people. What’s going on in sanctuary cities is borderline insurrection.

This is an extremely sad story. Forcing people like this out of our country helps no one, and they are the exact folks immigration reform should be focused on incorporating into American society.
