Wow, I know some of those words.
I'm the one blind to reality? You actually think Bernie had any sway over any one of the moderates who dropped out to give Biden the win? They were loyal to the Democratic Party, not Bernie, and certainly not to their principles, if truly they had any.
She's a young woman with strong opinions. That's enough to make conservatives pop a blood vessel.
This is just bait for grant and investment cash. Sounds genius to venture capitalists divorced from reality.
It seems like you're going down the Silicon Valley Techno-Libertarian rabbit hole, so I highly recommend looking into some Anarchist critiques of Libertarianism and reflecting a bit. This is a trap you're stumbling into.
That's literally just politics.
This gives the same energy as saying "it's just business" after doing some heinous shit.
Name a more iconic duo than Marxists and Anarchist-erasure.
You seem to think that Anarchism is just the extreme/pure form of Libertarianism, and that it's just about more/less government, which couldn't be further from the truth.
I'll acknowledge my bias upfront, I consider myself an Anarchist, so keep that in mind as you read my comment.
American Libertarianism presents itself as being about "small government," which makes it sound appealing to people who are skeptical of authority but have a very shallow understanding of politics. In truth, it's an ideology that holds individual property rights as superior to all others. To an American Libertarian, any infringement on their property rights is the most egregious possible violation of their freedom.
Anarchism means "without rulers." Anarchists oppose all forms of exploitation and oppression, which is described as any arrangement in which one person or group exerts authority over another person or group, usually by force. They favor organizing society via "voluntary free association," which is when people make decisions together on the basis of general consent. To an Anarchist, private property (as opposed to personal property, there is a distinction) is just another way for someone to exploit another, such as when a landlord collects rent.
This text explains what anarchism is pretty well.
But it separates them into the south and northeast.
The fact that these are supposed to be cultural categories and it doesn't distinguish Appalachia is enough for me to discount this as total nonsense.
I see lots of liberals online insisting that the US pulling out of the Paris accord will make everyone else, including China, abandon their climate initiatives.
If any nation does so then - just like the US - they weren't truly committed in the first place, and they would have quietly rolled back their climate goals like the US has been doing already anyway.

ID Request: Pestle Puffballs (I think)

More pictures available if needed. I broke a few open that were in rougher shape and they are solid white and spongy all the way through. Found in open woods in West Kentucky.
Thinking about frying these up and seeing how they taste but want a bit more assurance that I'm not taking a huge risk doing so. I couldn't find these in my National Audubon Society Field Guide so I'm a bit reluctant to take the chance.
