It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

If I see you posting AI slop, it's an instant block. Even if you think it's cute or says a lot about society. If you are purporting that some AI slop is real news, I will report you for misinformation, and then block you. Sloppers should be marginalised.

The way y'all are experiencing joy watching industrial ag crash is fun and all but the way you do it, ie: "haha stupid farmers deserve to suffer" reads as far more anti-rural than anti-capitalist.

Y'all really think everyone off pavement is right wing, and it's very Hillary coded. Gross.

one billionaire could fix every street, every pothole, every building in your town and it wouldn't even be a blip in their bank account unless you live in New York City or Beijing

I still think it's pretty interesting that rob mcelhenney and ryan reynolds did save an entire Welsh town for fun because they're not Billionaires, and Billionaires could save every Wrexham on earth. All of them. Every single poor town could be salvaged and the people saved and billionaires refuse.
