This seems like a good post for a math sub for sure.

Oh, 100%. Gold is perfect for people that wish to avoid the stock markets. I even have a few coins myself.

I just find it ironic that if we ever needed to use our gold as a curreny, we would be fucked.

Sure starting to feel that way. For now, I’ll just wait for the appeals.

If they loose 2024, they will simply rebrand to Project 2029

Hooah

To be frank, this is the best takeaway from the article.

They said the quiet part out loud… again.

edit: spelling

This is obviously part of a much broader, Republican-led nationwide effort to restrict and suppress voting, disenfranchise Americans, sow distrust, and grant Republicans more control over our election system, all in the name of “election integrity.”

By leveraging Trump’s “big lie” and the stream of election fraud propaganda, conspiracies, and misinformation that followed to promote unnecessary solutions to fabricated problems. They’ve convinced millions of disgruntled supporters that Democrats have compromised our election system.

This is the claim now: undocumented immigrants are voting, and that Democrats, particularly Biden, are encouraging it, even though some of these places are VA centers.

There’s a narrative in conservative circles that immigrants are being pushed to register to vote when they sign up for any benefits. Trump’s allies allege this is happening.

The reality is, anyone applying for benefits is asked if they want to register to vote. However, if you are not a citizen, you cannot use that application to register, because you have to prove U.S. citizenship.

It’s election fraud, interference, and subversion to combat conspiracies of election fraud… period.

There’s a pattern where Republicans jump to conclusions about a stolen election, and when facts contradict these conclusions, they create conspiracies and rationalizations to double down. This is the conservative modus operandi.

Facts don’t matter to them; their prejudices and delusions guide their thinking. In their minds, anything is justified because they believe the election was stolen. They won’t be convinced otherwise, so it’s up to Republicans, who have been pandering to these grievances, to act. Unfortunately, this action often results in widespread voter suppression under the guise of protecting elections from fabricated threats.

Aaand moreover, propaganda and rhetoric from Trump and prominent Republicans who have embraced the stolen election conspiracy are empowering right-wing zealots to intimidate voters at polling places. Some even consider becoming election or poll workers to “stop the steal.”

This is happening nationwide, particularly in densely populated, Democrat-leaning areas.

This effort gained momentum after the election and has continued, with few Republicans or conservatives acknowledging it. Most believe that these Trump loyalists are justified in passing sweeping “election integrity” laws that undermine, rather than uphold, the integrity of our elections.

History will compare this era in American politics to the years before Nazi Germany.

I love when politicians casually talk about getting rid of journalists. It’s also ironic as she was a “journalist” once.

Almost like… it was staged

Random opinion: Ive never liked gold personally.

The problem with solid gold being a currency is even the smallest amount of gold that could be carried in small enough amounts to be used as currency would be a coin. A solid gold coin is roughly $2.5K.

You could break it up but you still have $625 pieces.

If we ever need to use gold to trade for food, you are looking at some expensive eggs.

Multi CDN integration is a thing. And fuck CF. Unlimited means unlimited. Stop trying to lie to your customers and change the rules.

If the IP’s were an issue, then they wouldn’t have offered to make the issue go away with $$$.

How do so many people lack reading comprehension?

Where did I justify anything? I simply stated facts and pointed out that the article is written by a student who attended the protest and goes to school at City U. And I said that now they can go protest peacefully, which is their right.

And it doesn’t matter whose perspective it is. The students were arrested, spent a night in jail, and were released. Minor charges if they don’t get dropped. This story is full of students complaining about how shitty jail was and stretching the truth.

Do you honestly believe the students, while in admitted general pop, somehow were singled out and not fed? I promise you that those students were forgotten by staff the moment the were booked and treated just like everyone else, which is what the students in the article are complaining about:

The conditions we’re hearing about are inhumane,” Mitra told The Intercept. “They take away the dignity of every person in there.”

Yeah, that’s jail in most cities.

I just wonder why literally no one is reporting on this if even some of it has truth.

What are you even rambling about? Who said anything about calling up newspapers? My 12 year old nephew has a better reading comprehension then you do.

Yes, invalid conplaints. The linked article literally says, “according to two faculty members.” The entire article and conversation is based on the the third-hand account from these two faculty members after tapking to the students who were arrested who were upset that they spent a day in jail. Sort of strange that not a single other newspaper or online publication is reporting on this though.

Also keep in mind that this article was written by a student from City University. The same University that is mentioned in the article. But of course, there is no way the student-reporter is biased at all.
