Absolutely but who cares? It saves people from being taken advantage of, and if someone does run a casino it would actually be fun.

The only difference is in respect to biological limitations of women. For example, very few women almost none will ever be able to do a pull-up. So having a pull up quota to pass the PT will disbar nearly all women and drive up the cost of recruiting enough soldiers significantly. It's not necessary in any type of way. There are certain roles women aren't suited for. Ones that require physical strength. Everything else they are perfectly suited for, many tasks they are more suited for. Roles which require understanding people, adjudicating power, anything aesthetic, jobs which require a higher average intelligence but not unusually high intelligence. Right now I think women make up nearly 20% of the U.S military. Pete's effective ban on women will drive up the cost of soldiers by some amount, I would assume by a similar amount to women being disbarred, leading to a situation in which all soldiers will have to be paid more in order to compensate or using conscription which will greatly lower the effectiveness of the army to the extent that you will likely need 2-3 times the soldiers at a discount to get the same combat effectiveness, and will destroy the officer culture of the military, by making the U.S more like Russia. A military which is highly corrupt and political and staffed by career bureaucrats.

Have to wait until a majority wants a revolution because it's not really ethical to do this until a strong majority wants to do it. Right now it would basically just be an insurrection.

He made his entire career stereotyping black people. Should have seen that one coming. I mean who was his audience even? Mostly white rednecks?

That guy would literally be a perfect clown for the confederates or something. He hates his own race and it's very obvious. Republicans in general tend to be very self hating. If they are black they hate black people, if they are gay, they hate gay people, if they are atheists, they hate atheists, of they are religious they hate religious people. If they are rich they hate Rick people. If they are poor they hate poor people. If they are men they hate men. If they are women they hate women.

The good thing is that they completely lack any wisdom or intelligence and it takes them 1000x the effort to do anything as a simple progressive person could do. They would have no power if they didn't have trillions of dollars of propaganda and bot farms supporting them. They would never get anything done without spending a billion dollars to do it. That's why all the Republican states are dirt poor and have really high crime rates and full of people who can't even think through even simple thought experiments.

Boycotting any business which encourages discrimination against people, government surveillance. Engage in community outreach, teaching your fellow community members about socialism and progressivism and nationalism. Also shaming and calling out people who support them. Dont be too much of a dick about it. Just simply tell them they are evil for supporting those people who victimize the innocent and steal all of our tax money, and try to brainwash everyone with algorithms and advertising backed influencers.

Also get out and vote blue no matter who until the Republicans stop supporting the state and then unify with them to get rid of the state so we can reform our system, kick out the rich, and take back control of our laws and state. You need to vote in every election, even if you have no chance of winning. We also need to do our own polling to ensure they are not tampering with the votes.

Do not date anyone who is maga, tell them why as well. Tell them they need to either support the common people or they need be happy being alone with their big paychecks as they support the state. Materialism or humanism. Until we can reinstate democracy and reform the state and our laws. We cannot compromise with those people in any type of way. We have to start from the ground and work our way up. Also make sure you show up to jury duty to support your fellow citizens against the hostile anti American judicial system. Do not allow religion in your home. If you see people wearing religious symbols in your business, that comes from the big 3, then ask them to leave, since these same maga businesses do the same to non Christians. Observe no anti discrimination laws which protect religious people but do not protect queer people. Don't get yourself sued or put in prison but there are many ways you can keep those people out of your community and make it hard for them. They don't belong here unless they support the people and democracy and human rights first. If they want to strip people of human rights then do not observe their human rights. Don't let them be hypocrites.

Hopefully they will realize that the best America has ever been outside of racial and social issues is when FDR was president who was basically a social Democrat, although he preferred the term progressive and new nationalist. The decades after his economic reforms were the greatest time in American history, and then the Republicans got power again with Nixon and started to dismantle all of it, by the time Regan was in office, he killed organized labor and cut taxes on corporations leading to the current situation of hyper Inflationary debt based economics.

In some ways I understand. If they did anything less they would be denationalized and since Persians aren't considered white really they would get a way worse deal. The vast majority of the people would be homeless and starving while armed propagandized guards protected international companies exporting every valuable resource out of the country. The unfortunate part about Iran is the religious stuff. Religions are terrible. They ruin the happiness of most of the population.

I mean even if it were just better odds it would be worth it maybe. If I were regulating gambling, I would make sure that Casinos had to pay out at least 90% of what they brought in and distributed widely with some mathematical function that approximates a bell curve.

I use mojeek, and startpage sometimes. Ddg is too influenced now, they do the same stuff Google does. Brave is run by people who hate LGBT people so I can't support them in good conscience.

At least poker is fair. Funny enough fair gambling is considered illegal and immoral for some reason, but slot machines are okay, even as they are designed in every way to victimize dumb people.

I think Microsoft puts the minimum possible effort into windows. It's a very small piece of their cloud, investing, data selling, propaganda, and AI company. They just make so much money off of speculation nowadays. Inflation is really high so the stock market grows really fast even if the economy is shrinking. A company like Microsoft is positioned to make so much money just in growth because they hold billions of dollars in the stock market.

They absolutely will ruin windows in every possible way, until people jump ship and start using other operating systems, at which point they will just kill the brand or sell it, and focus on their other sectors that make profits. They like many people know this is the right option. Keeping an operating system going is extremely complex these days and even with all the money in the world, microsoft could never find enough talent to actually pull it off. When you get to that level, most programmers aren't motivated by money so much as working on projects they like. Most actually intelligent people also would refuse to work for a company that spies on its citizens and sells them out to the worst people on earth, which are politicians. At this point Microsoft probably makes way more money selling servers to the IDF to capture all phones calls from people in Gaza then they make off windows in 10 years.

Ted Cruz looks like someone I wouldn't trust to sell me a used car.
