If you’re gonna be a troll at least put some effort into it, because right now you just look like a moron who’s too cowardly to own being a bigot.

My concern ends at the illegal entry part, past that whatever happens is the consequences of their actions.
gets informed person was here legally
Shit happens
Uh huh. So the comment you made only minutes prior about your concern ending at the illegal entry part was a lie. It looks like your concern ends when it’s affecting non-white people.
Very cool very deep.
I agree that the US prison system is messed up. There are tons of things to be mad about without making stuff up. People should be upset about the emphasis on punishment and the lack of rehabilitation that occurs.
But here we have a pretty decent rehabilitation program and… we’re still upset.
At some point this community needs to have a frank realization that this is the other side of the same rage bait, fake news slop trough MAGA folks are eating from.
Pine Grove is literally a voluntary transitional program for incarcerated youths (required to be 18+ for the program) to get trauma treatment, mentorship, and work experience with CalFire to improve their prospects post-release: https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/insidecdcr/2023/04/13/pine-grove-camp-continues-youth-rehabilitation/
OP take inspiration from these guys: you too can do something noble and impactful with your life if you can pry yourself away from posting factually incorrect rage bait content.
OP: posts a meme about weird and racist European holiday traditions and how Europeans will appear to defend them
Europeans ITT:
well actually it’s not a Christmas tradition it’s from November
yeah uh, and it’s not actually blackface because we decided it’s soot and ash even though it was and still is blackface
ok we might have people here that like the blackface but they live all the way on the other side of the country which is like a whole 10 minutes away so it doesn’t count
uhhhh you Americans wouldn’t understand with your newer, watered-down, holiday traditions that are stolen from elsewhere
it’s not racist it’s cultural and you Americans would understand if you could introspect about your culture
The painting is titled Italian landscape with umbrella pines which appears to be a name for stone pines. Cool trees.

How does that function in practice? Does the government now hold an active management stake in all these entities?
Seize (that is, nationalize) the largest 100 corporations.
I understand the case for nationalizing key social infrastructure and utilities, but what is the justification for seizing the largest 100 corporations? Also why 100 specifically?
Please crosspost more. You must meet quota, comrade.

Ranked 20th, but out of how many countries?
Well I pulled the full source: the 2021 Net Zero Readiness Report from KPMG.
KPMG evaluated 32 countries. Out of which China ranked 20th. Not terrible, but also not all that impressive with that context.
I’ve gotta give you kudos:
I see you all over these comment sections like it’s your full time job and you consistently have the absolute worst takes. Brain rot GOAT
Yes, it is still objectively right. Anyone deciding not to vote for Biden isn’t automatically culpable for any Trump victory unless they voted for him personally.
This is an incredibly naïve and privileged perspective, clearly held by someone who has nothing to lose if Trump were to win.
The reality of the shitty political system of the US means that it comes down to two bad choices.
However one of the bad choices would see the genocide of the Palestinian people accelerated. Not only that, but Trump has tried to oppose aid to Ukraine, which would allow for genocide of the Ukrainian people to occur unabated.
So if your actions to oppose one genocide results in the continuation of that genocide plus one more, is what you did objectively right every time?
It’s not nothing, but it’s barely anything.
Tell that to the 6,500 people that got their freedom back.
And I reject your assertion that it’s barely anything: by your source’s count he pardoned 2/3 of the people caught up in these archaic cannabis laws.
Referencing back to OP, would you rather have 2/3 of an ice cream cone or go off a cliff?
He could also deschedule cannabis
No, he likely cannot unilaterally do that: https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/can-president-biden-legalize-marijuana-1220802/
Do you at least acknowledge that slow incremental progress, while admittedly not nearly enough, is definitely better than going backwards?
It’s not ”just optics”. Per your source he did pardon 6,500 individuals, which the Last Prisoner Project described as “progress for those eligible for relief.”
Now they do argue that the Biden administration should go further by pardoning 3,000 additional people, which I agree with. But to call this step forward “just optics” is at best disingenuous.
Please don’t misunderstand me: I’m not thrilled about the situation either.
But I’m also not going to coddle anyone that thinks making things significantly worse for untold millions to maintain some kind of ideological purity makes them somehow superior or less culpable.
I hear you and I appreciate what you’re trying to do here, though I am skeptical that these people actually are coming here in good faith.
lol eat dirt loser
