So I was gonna make fun of her without reading the article. But I stopped myself and read it.

Student wants to have a republican club, at a Historically black university. In order to be recognised officially by the uni you need a staff member with 3 years at the uni to sign of/endorse your club. She has emailed at least 2 faculty and both have declined. She does not say how many she has reached out to or in what way. Everyone should feel so sad for this poor woman who just wants to be heard!

No I kidd. She's a whiner and an idiot looking for attention. She says she has met with 3 other students a few times unofficially, yet the minimum to be recognised officially as a group is 10. So even if she could get a sign off by a faculty, she doesn't have enough people interested in her garbage to qualify anyways (my soul brightens just slightly at this thought)

And why is she emailing random faculty? How many classes is she taking? Did she ask each of those professors, in person? Seems like she is trying to raise a stink without putting in any of the work. Wahhhhh! you won't recognise my shitty club! Help help I'm being oppressed!

The only smart thing in that whole article was the thought that in order to change the GOP you need people in it who aren't shitba.... Excuse me, who represent all walks of life and colours of skin. But frankly, that's a looooooong game to be playing...

They are not easy to grow. And they are male and female so you have to have both for fruits. I don't know the ratio, or much beyond that, I've never gotten a pod to sprout...

Did Trump's campaign have credible evidence she didn't? Was there any reason for them to suspect she was lying?

It's a waste of time to prove every little facet of someone existence, not matter how "easy" it would be.

Instead, let's ignore wild bullshit accusations of lying unless we are presented with some sort of evidence that backs it up, or come up against a strong reason to need to know (I can't even think of a decent reason in this example...)

If Harris is caught in a lie about something related (lied about her qualifications during a campaign speech or something) THEN maybe demanding she look up her records and print some proof would carry some weight.

As of now, I'm just tired of this double standard. They squaxk and squak and demand proof for every little thing, it's just to waste time and energy.

Just make sure to do it from Walmart or Lowblaw or some other government teet sucking price gouging corporation.

  • this is the argument *

This is exactly NOT what will happen.

I'm assuming that was your intention OP, but just in case:

What will happen is private sector clinics/practices/ect will be able to pay more than public, because they can charge whatever they want, so all the talented nurses/doctors ect will vacate the public sector for private, leaving public understaffed and underfunded even more than it is now. Then some shit government will point at the anemic public system they let suffer and say "it doesn't make sense to keep this thing alive" and take it out back and shoot it. Then we turn into the states.

The rich get better care (which they can already get with a quick plane ticket if they can't wait) everyone else gets $300 cream.

It's f-ing ridiculous that anyone believes for profit healthcare would (note I believe they COULD, they just are designed not to) provide better care than a unified public service that wasn't being slowly chipped away to make room for profiteering.

It's the same thing you get eatting undercooked pork. Only recently did the pork industry manage to get it mostly out of their herds so now the "recommended temp" to cook pork is dropping.

But it's still very common in bears so you have to treat it like pork and cooked it to 165*

which sucks, I'd love to try a juicy rare black bear steak.

Then the driver should have been charged with those offences. Also I have no idea how YOU know he was breaking any traffic laws from that video. The officer onsite indicates the lights are not to be trusted, and "speeding", I'd love to see how you went about determining that from this video....

The cop played a stupid game and won a stupid prize. In a just world once he heals up he would go to jail for the same crime/time as he falsely accused the driver of. Oh well.

Sad they didn't mention what a disaster Country music has become over the last 5-10 years. Used to be about trucks, country girls and beer. Now it's about beer, whiskey, moonshine, drinking in your truck bed, drinking because of country girls, and drinking because you are working class. I want a 1:35:47 YouTube video essay on the top 50 songs the last 4 years and how they became nothing but advertisements for branded alcohol and propaganda that all poor people need is a few beers or a shot of whiskey to keep being productive and "happy".

I grew up (90's) on local Canadian Country radio. I still tune into it on my drive to work if I don't want to hear about boat crashes and genocide. And I sing along. But it's fucked. I know it.

Hang on a tick. Is that my old cheese? My good-time boy?! Or is he but a simple human man?

My Aunt said she'd leave if Trump was elected. Within the year she had sold her working farm and bed and breakfast and moved to Costa Rica with her husband.

Most people can't afford to do that,or still have kids at home or whatever. And I honestly don't like her or my uncle that much, but I was so proud of them that they did that. They had the resources, so they just did it.

Most people don't have that freedom. But those who do should put their money where their mouth is.
