Anti-fascism is a political movement

Wrong.

with a lot of political theory

What?

Its not the same thing as saying you’re against fascism.

That's exactly what it is.

Their greatest magic trick is that it will disappear for the entirety of a Republican administration. It's Schrodinger's caravan. It only exists if there is an election coming up, or a Democrat is in office.

Most of the US military is mostly made up of conservatives

That's a generous interpretation of the word most. Among active duty plus veterans the US military is 34% Republican. If you take out veterans it's only 26%.

and red states are the only ones with some semblance of a manufacturing base

Straight up ridiculous nonsense.

California is not only top for manufacturing, but grows half the food in the country.

I dont think a hypothetical civil war will turn out as well as blue staters think.

It's not going to happen, not even in your wildest, most traitorous fever dreams.

People are complaining about not having better options than two old guys, but are also complaining that their rivals are getting coverage during the primary season.

Did you seriously make an account just to make this comment? The Heritage Foundation? Fucking yikes.

The U.S. company said in October it planned "modest" price increases this year as demand held up despite rises, leading it to hike its 2023 profit forecast for a third straight time.

They will simply keep raising prices until demand plateaus. It has nothing to do with production costs or shipping costs- they will gauge us for every single penny simply because they can. And if sales drop they will still make more money than before because a bag of chips that used to be $2.49 is now $5.99.

The problem is that one of these candidates lost the last time there was an election, and then broke the law and tried to illegally maintain power, thus making himself ineligible to run again. Is it really such a problem to uphold the Constitution of the US?

It makes more sense that they are just assholes rather than they can't figure out basic taco architecture, despite 50+ years in the taco making biz.

Barriers and safety nets at suicide hotspots can reduce rates by 90%

Samaritans chief executive Ruth Sutherland said: “The period of suicidal crisis, where someone is fixated on taking their own life, usually only lasts a short while. Creating a barrier, whether it is a fence, or an alternative course of action, such as details of an organisation like Samaritans which offers round the clock support, or even something as simple as someone reaching out and asking if they are OK, can often interrupt people enough for them to have second thoughts about what they are doing and seek help."

You're right that someone who is firm in their decision will find another way, but this helps to stop impulse suicides.

She's either delusional and she's sticking her fingers in her ears while screaming lalalala, or she actually thinks this is a message that sells to all the people who are angry about their autonomy and healthcare rights being stripped away from them. I'm not sure which is worse.

They're already planning to go after contraception. It's on their wishlist. We already know it.

I think the Boomers are a lost cause when it comes to this, but you need to teach younger people critical thinking. You need to get your news from trusted sources. You should not be blindly forming opinions based on random facebook pages or reddit comment chains. Every single thing you read on the open internet should be treated with suspicion. Watermarking is just too easy to get around.
