Also, if you are really concerned, but think youll have something like diesel available, EVs are still better as not only are they more flexible, but a pretty low cost multi-fuel generator could charge it.

The dipshittiest of comments. Spend some time learning some basic crash physics.

Beyond the clear use of the word "person" - go ahead and tell me how you know if someone is not an citizen before you rescind your own requirement for due process?

Or, how many citizens should lose due process because you decide to skip it?

If you decide to provide exceptions, you will inevitably have a substantial error rate.

Of course, i suspect that is considered a bonus to these nazis.

Oof. Such a bad idea. It does demonstrate that "We mostly care that they aren't contributing to taxes" is just a garbage excuse.

Reading it, it seems to be more targeted as a team knowledge base tool than a word processor.

Supreme Court is still an important source of perceived legitimacy. The further authoritarians can push the Supreme Court to rubber stamp their power, the weaker public response will be.

Its similar to a form of "divine right" really.

Of course, the Supreme Court has to have its own trust and perceived legitimacy in order to convder it.

Lets say 5000 people see this post - should it be normal and expected that 5000 people spend their time hunting down a source to a claim, or have a single OP include it in their post?

The amount of handringing over it was always excessive. China has undergone a massive rural -> urban migration. They still are. The large majority of homes are being used, and more will continue to be. I feel like a china apologist here, but this narrative about ghost cities has always been very silly.

This is what basically worked a few years ago. Massive mess, a huge pain, but it worked.

Please don't spread misinformation about trade deficits. That is part of the "logic" that trump uses to justify US tariffs. Trade deficits are generally not all that important.

There are good reasons to switch from US goods and services - this is not one of them.
