It's the rich buying off both major political parties in the US. One is paid to implement a fascist oligarchy. The other is paid to pump the breaks on the fascist oligarchy when the population freaks out.

In both cases, political bribery has run amok and unchecked. Neither party is beholden to the will of the people. Low voter turnout means Republicans and oligarchy wins. High voter turnout means Democrats and the same oligarchy wins.

Not to sound insensitive, but this is just a social media post quoting another social media post without proof or the ability to verify anything.

Run for political office. The Democrats have no intention of fixing anything, let alone making things better.

And if you believe you're not qualified or don't know how to do the job, just remember that both parties are filled with incompetent fools, fakes, conspiracy crackpots, and morons. It would take considerable effort to do worse than some of the people in congress.

I've been wondering this and I haven't been able to find any good answers to the issue.

Obviously, mass deportations are bad and would destroy lives and the economy, but what happens if these millions of people aren't accepted into any other country?

I saw one post on Reddit that asked this question, but all of the replies didn't actually address the issue.

You can't go back. This isn't just a political difference of opinion, this is a full blown violent cult. We need greater funding for mental health and deprogramming services.

It's the death threats, hate posts, violent rhetoric, and posing misinformation & disinformation. Simply put, conservatives violate social media ToS' far more often than liberals.

So I can drive in the HOV lane, I can't be mass arrested, and attempted murder against me is considered attempted genocide?

My tax return is going to be enormous due to how many dependants I have. I'll have enough money to get TF out of this crazy place.

YouTube is free.

Disney+ is not.

Kids don't typically have an income source. There you go, mystery solved.

As an actual leftist, I hope they throw the book at him. Politicians should not be above the law.

Let me get this straight, it's somehow the progressive rhetoric of universal healthcare and free education that caused a Republican voter to shoot the Republican presidential candidate?

Make that make sense.

I have 38C and I wear a bra for a variety of reasons. It does help with support, they weigh a lot and having them bounce freely hurts. It's like having two large water balloons taped to your chest. Every slight bump or jolt pulls on the skin.

It also helps with sweating. Underwood sweat is a real thing and just as uncomfortable as armpit sweat or thigh rub sweat. A bra helps to absorb sweat and moisture under there.

A bra also acts a a sort of "armor." My breast's are rather sensitive, and rubbing against my shirt or other stuff can be painful. Having a bra layer protects them from chaffing and rubbing.

There's also a bit of vanity to it, depending on type and style of bra. Some are utilitarian and functional only, some are stylish, and some are designed to show off in low cut blouses.

Personally, most of my bras are entirely function and utility as I work as a welder. I'm covered head to toe in safety gear, so wearing a pretty or revealing bra just isn't practical.

I'm a welder, and the general public doesn't seem to understand why we charge so much for our services. Like, 80% of my work is fit-up, alignment, math, measurements, and work area prep.

All the public sees is "durr, me hot glue metal! All done!" That's exactly what you get with Jim Bob who owns a welder yet has never trained for it. He's cheap, his welds are ugly, and they're likely to fail in the near future.
