To be clear, this isn’t my plan. I’m just relaying the reality of the situation to you. This is what is happening and we have to deal with it.

That would mean shifting the democratic party left. They’re the ones pulling that end of the window right.

Winning the vote is the only metric that actually counts for how good a campagna is.

It still takes you an hour, it just takes everyone else near infinitely longer.

No one has anything like a plan to fix things. The point is to break everything hard enough that the staunch status quo idiots with their heads in the sand are forced to look up and start doing something. Failing that we’ll have a quick death rather than a long and torturous one.

Slow death versus a possible quick death with a chance for a cure.

When Arizona banned them almost all of them just pivoted to auto title loans. These use the same laws pawn shops exist under, so you’re basically pawning off your car for a couple hundred dollars.

The payday loan model. I bet they’ll even let you take out a new loan to pay off the one you already have burying you even deeper.

Technically, you were.

Well, yeah. That’s why we know it should be banned.

Temporarily yes. Perhaps not in the long run, though. Sometimes you have to go through some pain to cure the disease.

So, just don’t do the two things that happen to every non-stick pan ever. Gotcha.

You sir, are entirely divorced from reality. It would be best for you to stop replying to the straw man you made up in your head and reconsider this entire exchange.

I guess the world can be whatever you want when you just make up reality in your head.

Good luck with that.

You may want to freshen up on your history. Ending slavery was a huge debate right at the beginning. They chose poorly in the end, but not for no reason.

Also, there’s a reason the only person you could come up with for your silly comparison was Thomas Jefferson. He was probably one of the most flawed of the founding fathers. Though he’s still a significantly better man than Musk on the whole.

Most of the founding fathers wanted to abolish slavery, but they also knew they needed the economic power of the southern states’ cotton trade and that they would be virulently against ending slavery. They kicked that can down the road, but laid the groundwork that eventually led us there for the most part.
