These people really just want to live their southern plantation owner dreams. You want Americans to work these jobs pay and provide benefits that will attract them to do it.
Farmers in deep-red Pennsylvania are struggling to find workers. They're pushing lawmakers to move faster on a farm labor solution, even as Trump cracks down on immigration.

“We need people to do the jobs Americans are too spoiled to do," said one farmer and three-time Trump voter.

What's being "protected" is not "free speech" but rather the RIGHT for white men to be white supremacists in public without any criticism or any consequences. I hope that's clear.

I cut my teeth installing Slackware on Dec Alphas. I use Ubuntu to this day because it simply works.
LINUX GEEKS: Eww Windows, you must switch to Linux!

ME: Installing Ubuntu.

LINUX GEEKS: No, not like that.

If you’re arguing for people to cast off the shackles of principles and ethics and throw their enthusiasm behind Buttigieg and Newsom despite, as far as I know, neither of them declaring a run for anything and us not even having hit MIDTERMS yet, let alone primaries…

Enjoy the cornfield I guess?

Stablecoins is their new "gold standard" and is just as dumb as it was back then
Tim Scott on stablecoin legislation: "The Walmart or Target folks shopping will see costs coming down, which means prices will stabilize as well. This is good news for the economy, good news like the single one who raised me, good news for seniors on fixed income."

Platforms should not be a neutral place of discussion. They should reflect their user base. If you don't like the conversation here go else where.
