Wasn't arguing with you. Just adding to it.

That is my whole point? When it comes to right to bear arms, the argument 'I need it against arbitrary government/a tyranny' is often used. And that is the whole problem I am pointing out. I don't think those/most people take into account that a tyrant government will go after your kids (or you as a person for that matter), making it very hard to actually pick up arms. Like I said, it is easy to claim something when you are not in danger. We all imagine to be heros from the safety we are in, but when it really comes down to that moment I doubt most of us are those heros.

I don't understand where the 'I can't hate them for it' part comes from and I prefer to leave it out. I am just explaining why it is normal and human to do it like that... taking a hate into any discussionis so polarizing.

It’s always the pickup drivers.

The waste is from the accident. The train was shipping dangerous chemicals used in processes to make the various things you use everyday. It's not about the product or the waste, it's about the safety of transporting it. These kinds of trains have been running around the US forever. The problem is we've allowed the companies that operate these trains to squeeze more profit in the name of safety and this event is the direct result of that.

If you’d told 1990s me that we’d come to a point where the Republican Party and American conservatives were openly schilling for Russia and strongman, pro-authoritarian/proto-fascist leaders like Putin, Orban, Kadyrov, Lukashenko, etc… I wouldn’t have believed you.

I grew up at the end of the Cold War, saw the Berlin Wall come down, and caught the end of the proxy war in Afghanistan. Russia was “the enemy” and the authoritarian, Communist regime they represented was bad. Now we’ve got Putin who wants to be president/dictator for life, suppress rights and freedoms, and hates America. The conservatives, who wouldn’t have been caught dead saying anything good about the USSR, are openly praising his strongman posturing and the iron fist he tries to run his country with.

Quitting en masse still legal?

It only becomes illegal to strike once you threaten go on strike

As long as we have politicians with corporate sponsorships, this will continue regardless of party.

This isn’t the rich white kid who mowed down cyclists

I mean, is there an alternative? Waste going to waste removal/processing sites isn't exactly unsurprising.

> It's not like the Russians are above straight up kidnapping or even killing the kids.

They have torture sites specifically for children in occupied Ukraine. There's also been lots of rape.

This article is newer than that one, they've apparently consolidated processing locations to be more local - a good idea to limit liability/spread.

Nobody bitching here actually has any solutions or answers, just malding that nothing being planned or done is "good enough."

Everyone is traveling through time.

Don’t worry, it seems like they still have a ways to go before they catch up with you.

Yeah they really need to do something before we see more news stories of cyclists killing 2 people and seriously injuring a dozen more…

Its a giant machine that you are nearly forced by societial pressures, such of needing a job and house prices around that job, to use. Not only that he stayed at the scene after the collision he was at fault of, and he is bei g charged with manslaughter. 2 charges of it most likely. There is no way he is just getting away with it and theres no way driving a car is like the blessed faction you're making it out to be.
