Encase no one here has ever heard of "Oklahoma" its a state in this country apparently. You can tell by their retarded allocation of resources and backward-ass priorities.

Pretty fucked
In my state if a child is born with illegal hard drugs in their system the state seizes custody right from the Hospital, and if the mom wants to get custody of her child back, she has to complete a substance abuse treatment program such as a 12-step program
Speaking of that, I was on hold for Child Protective Services tonight for like 30 straight minutes, and it’s funny when I called their recording begins with “Are you interested in a job working for CPS? We have openings right here on our hotline!” This is before I am even allowed to hit a prompt for making a mandated report. It’s like they are begging “Hey, do you like these 30+ minute holds? No? Then work for us! Please. We are desperate….”
I half expected when I finally got a phone specialist that she was going to say “are you calling to inquire about being hired by CPS?” And when I replied “No I need to make a mandated report” that she’d hang up on me before I could finish the sentence lol. But luckily that was not the case
But yea, CPS is more desperate than ever. Even before the labor shortage it was a very stressful (and occasionally dangerous) job, incredibly high case-loads, incredibly high turnover

Oh I guess in regards to “is a fetus protected by the rights of a person” argument, I am not allowed to make a CPS report based on what the mom is doing to her fetus
She could be drinking a bottle of whiskey a day while shooting meth and the report won’t be investigated by CPS
Fetuses have no rights

I was honestly surprised by it. When I was a newbie to my position I tried making a report for a lady that was shooting meth and heroin daily while pregnant, trying to save the future child from possible birth defects. Was shocked to discover it wouldn’t be investigated
Hmm, other stuff that people might not know about CPS…they can actually be somewhat chill about recreational illegal drug use as a parent. If a parent is using something like meth, but not appearing intoxicated when caring for the child or allowing their child to have any accidental access to it, CPS can be surprisingly chill
I remember a case of a mom who would leave her child in the custody of her separated ex (who was responsible), then go on a weekend meth binge at a motel by herself. Then sober up and pick the child back up after. CPS will get involved and investigate, might offer the parent some substance abuse support, but they won’t sever rights in that scenario because the mom was leaving the child with a supportive trustworthy adult before becoming intoxicated and the child had no accidental access to or exposure to the drug
Another scenario that CPS doesn’t want to touch us homelessness. If you are, say, living out of your car with your child, as long as it is not a very little kid (under age 6 or so), CPS will not sever your rights to your kid because a car is still considered shelter. I had a parent begging CPS to take temporary custody of their teen son who was living with her out of her car and they wouldn’t do it, surprisingly

But ya gotta have something. I remember a young, possibly ID (Intellectually deficient, the politically correct clinical term for borderline legally retarded) naive mom who had just taken a greyhound bus to my state with her like 1yr old baby and was homeless
She mentioned she had slept in a park with the infant the last 2 nights. Needless to say when I made the mandated report CPS sent their AHIT (after hours investigation team) an hour after I called to find either the mom or the infant some shelter
That shit won’t fly with them. Gotta have some form of shelter, responsibility as a parent. Food, shelter, clothes, medicine if needed

but here it is anyway:
Abortion is a necessary evil. Take a look at any current population density map and tell me exactly how we are going to meet the needs of 10+ billion people.
No, its not a nice political statement you can run a campaign on, No its not gonna make your "god" happy, No its not something in a nice neat little package to be served up as a solution.
Its a nasty business, and absolutely necessary. I am not pro choice or pro life. I am pro-human.

Last little-known thing about CPS before I go swim laps: Have you ever heard a parent threaten to send their kid to a group home, or to give up custody? I’ve heard it so many times, hundreds of times
If your parent ever angrily did it to you, it’s almost always a hollow threat. You can call CPS and ask to give up custody of your kid. They will give you a ton of shit about it and remind the parent it is FELONY neglect. Oh and if they take the one “problem” kid, they take ALL the kids, you don’t get to pick which kids you keep. And you don’t get any back
So I educate parents, as politely and diplomatically as I can, that these threats in addition to being very damaging for a child to hear, are also not possible. I have had a few parents still insist though, telling CPS something like “take this fucker I don’t care about the felony”. I’ve seen it a handful of times, actually :(

That tends to be how I look at it. I just add some dressing about how we shouldn't demonize the would-be mothers.
My mom was a social worker. She often talked about these drug addict women that would just have one kid after the other. Shes a pretty empathic person from a rough background herself. But even she after awhile would say "we need to sterilize these people" or something to that effect.
Drug addicts produce kids with problems -- the developmental psychology/biology actually matters a lot in these baby phases. So the state has to fund these kids and their psychological problems until their 18. Usually by then they are good and fucked up -- so they proceed the cost the system even more in services and the justice system.
Its just a shit situation that our society isn't well equipped for. This situation will just get worse without abortion.

This was probably allowed to happen because of the powerful interest against business as usual with fossil fuels. But its the same damn thing on every issue.

here's what I think is happening. Right now people are spending less, so they think they can quit their jobs and blow their savings.
Home owners and stock owners (normal people) are doing well, becuase they have homes, WFH and stocks, which are doing extremely well!
Then when the poor's start to think they will just start going back to work when they're ready, but they'll be in for a surprise.
While all this was happening prices were steadily rising, which was allowed because of the stock growth and the worker shorteges.
And the poors will become desperate to get back to work and they will take the same wages they thought were not enough.
And so they'll go back to work for the same money, prices will stay high, and judgment day is inevitable.

The reason I buy stocks despite not being a professional or insider, is because I know the country won't take away that money I put away in there (or the business) if it is at all in their power to stop it.
More than I can say for alot of other investiments. If you save money -- which you should -- you should probably put it in things likely to get bigger and keep up with inflation.
This video is a good explaination: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFgPNVytlwA

Home owners and stock owners (normal people) are doing well, becuase they have homes, WFH and stocks, which are doing extremely well!
Then when the poor's start to think they will just start going back to work when they're ready, but they'll be in for a surprise.
While all this was happening prices were steadily rising, which was allowed because of the stock growth and the worker shorteges.
And the poors will become desperate to get back to work and they will take the same wages they thought were not enough.
And so they'll go back to work for the same money, prices will stay high, and judgment day is inevitable.
What you're are describing there is the theory on how we run an economy like ours. Its called a "Liberal Market Economy". Opposed to a "Coordinated Market Economy."
The LME wants their labor force to be flexible. That means, you can do all kinds of different jobs, expect to be fired at will from your employer, and have no safety net to encourage complacency.
We are the most like this out of any of the big capitalist countries. Although we include other countries like the UK and Australia in this list.
Opposed to continental Europe like Sweden and Germany. Their economies are centered around preserving their skilled labor force and the sectors they work in. You are not on your ass if you get layed off, and education is funded to make sure you can actually do something worthwhile in the economy.
In these countries, you don't see the same problem where those fresh out of school can't find jobs. The schools themselves are built around getting you job ready.
Unlike our college model which is designed around making an elite finishing school for those already well connected and supported.

The unique factor here, is that because of covid nobody is going to the club at the rate we used to, or eating out, so they are saving more money.
I think this is creating an illusion the working class is using to subsidise the strikes and labor shorteges we're seeing right now.
But what they dont know is that what they're doing is eating through any savings the pandemic may have given them, and when they run out as the pandemic comes to an end ( or if not we collapse for other reasons ) they will come to realize that they are desperate to go back to work, but it's not as easy to get a job as it was before.
So it creates a unique bubble to screw up that house of cards you describe lol

I'm not sure the above situation will make people more likely to sell Microsoft* than buy it. Which is ultimately the only thing that moves a stock price. The very fact that the vast majority of stocks are owned by the top 10% who are likely to be fine, means that they aren't going to have to sell them.

Well good for Rand Paul getting it out in the open. But I'm guessing this will just turn into some kind of partisan shit.
It would be nice if we could get some public heat on the fact that we are continuing to make these bio weapons (whether the intention of the research or not). Its just a matter of time before another crazy illness x10 worse than covid.
It might take 50 years but it will happen if we continue to do it in these sketchy Chinese labs. Not to mention the utter retardation of giving our biggest rival all this science as well.
What is all this risk for? So we can sell a bunch of flu shots throughout the year? That's the impression I'm getting.

This is so stupid and it comes from the very Republican (Rand Paul) that didn't use precaution and got Covid19.
The human population has seen a Coronavirus (what Covid19 is) in the past kill millions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1889%E2%80%931890_pandemic
To think a coronavirus has to be engineered and released on the public is ridiculously stupid and at one time was only meant as comedy.
My God, SARS-Cov-2 (a Coronavirus) had just affected China in 2004.
In fact there are over 500 Coronavirus like viruses found in some of the bats studied.
It would be irresponsible if we didn't study these viruses (even stated by Fauci)
And yes some of them can be passed on to humans from the bat.
Hell, Scientists from the Wuhan Institute of Virology went to the cave to collect guano samples. In November 2019, three researchers became sick with a flu-like illness and sought hospital care, according to a U.S. intelligence.
The first known coronavirus cases were reported in late December 2019 in Wuhan province, and the first death was reported there in January 2020. It is very possible those individuals passed the Conoravirus we know now as a variant Covid19.
We seem to forget the mismanaged response to this virus in the US was clearly from one party. Those that continue to pass misinformation by regurgitation word of mouth (their own research) are the problem. To the point many of these who have succumb to this misinformation have turned to Xenophobia to work out their aggression and confusion.

What the hell are you talking about? Sars-cov-2 *IS* the current pandemic virus. It causes the disease known as Covid-19. You follow? You're thinking of Sars-cov-1, colloquially known as just "SARS" which was a briefly-lived virus in 2004. Technically it does still exist, but almost nobody gets it. "SARS" was much more deadly than Covid-19, but much less contagious. So they kind of have an inverted relationship.
The NIH admitted they were funding gain of function research in wuhan. *They* admitted it. How much more will it take for you to accept it's not some wacky right wing conspiracy theory? Gain of function is the process of manipulating a natural virus to make it more transmissible and more dangerous to humans, in an effort to develop more effective defenses against such viruses.
Their excuse is essentially "well, err, we didn't realize at the time that's what it was. And fauci didn't lie exactly, cause he didn't know at the time either! derp!". Like, are these people professionals? They apparently don't even *KNOW* what they're funding??

Yes actually, they *were* putting spike protein from a novel bat coronavirus into mice, to ultimately study how it might affect humans. Nobody is saying this is some kind of Dr.Evil research, it does have an altruistic goal, which is to protect humans from deadly viruses.

Others have been infected in the past if not months before the most recent Coronavirus was first reported.
I assuredly can blame Republicans on there absolutely horrible means of handling this Pandemic. Our nation was one of the worst to handle this pandemic, if not the worst.
There were so many times the previous Republican administration suppressed, hid or mismanaged it. Hell, Jared Kushner's team did some of worst heinous things:
"Most troubling of all, perhaps, was a sentiment the expert said a member of Kushner's team expressed: that because the virus had hit blue states hardest, a national plan was unnecessary and would not make sense politically. "The political folks believed that because it was going to be relegated to Democratic states, that they could blame those governors, and that would be an effective political strategy."
And you conveniently left out the part the NIH reported:

The ratings aren't looking good for President Biden's CNN Town Hall meeting last night. Here are the early numbers on cable news views last night:
Biden town hall: 1.20 million viewers
Fox News: 2.83 million viewers (Tucker + first half of Hannity)
So 1.6 million more people watched Fox News' normal lineup than President Biden trying to address the American public on CNN.

It's pretty basic, when the leadership is like, retarded sounding and changes their position on things constantly, the people freak out.
This is all perfect example of leadership that is just totally collapsed, across the board. Nobody can trust anyone because even if you are in leadership they're all super polarized, I mean like, can you say if you were a conservative religious fellow that AoC would consider your feelings? Hell no, and visa versa for the other side.
So really it's not any one persons fault. Not even one leaders. It's collectively everyone who is like Horza's fault for engaging in and encouraging this behavior.

Fascism revolves around a victim complex. The movements come up with reasons why the majority group in the country is being victimized by evil minorities.
There is about 25-30% of any given population that basically have fascist psychologies. Just give them that chance and they will enthusiastically victimize others -- rationalizing that they are protecting themselves.
A few ways to spot a fascist:
They suck up to those in power and look for "safe" scapegoats. You guys seen this asshole in every EQ guild. Kissing ass to the leader and the officers, piling on to someone who screwed up at every opportunity.
They tend to view the world as some zero-sum game for survival.
Strong on the believe there is something inherently good about conformity.
I've seen this personality on the left. There the assholes trying to round up the rednecks from the jan 6 riot. No they won't criticize wallstreet, yes they will punch down on poor hogs.
I just tend to think its not as dangerous.
But either way, the job of American elites as I see it, is to make sure these kinds of people aren't in power. The problem is they want to hang on to way things are -- they just spent 30 years getting it this rigged and they want to keep it that way.
Fascists are natural allies to those trying to suppress a population like this.

all of the DNC's platform is based on victimhood. We can say that the conservatives are victims but lets be realistic the policy they care about gives zero f's if you are a victim and expects you to deal with it.
So the difference is, someone who whines (conservatives), vs someone who actually tries to use being a victim to govern (democrats).

If you look at what Stalin did in the old Soviet union -- its a good example of fascism that also considered leftwing by most people.
Example of early Stalin writing:https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/stalin/works/1901/11/x01.htm
The working class is not the only class that is groaning under the yoke of the tsarist regime. The heavy fist of the autocracy is also crushing other social classes. Groaning under the yoke are the Russian peasants, wasted from constant starvation, impoverished by the unbearable burden of taxation and thrown to the mercy of the grasping bourgeois traders and the "noble" landlords. Groaning under the yoke are the little people in the towns, the minor employees in government and private offices, the minor officials—in general, that numerous lower class of the urban population whose existence is as insecure as that of the working class, and which has every reason to be discontented with its social conditions. Groaning under the yoke is that section of the petty bourgeoisie and even of the middle bourgeoisie which cannot resign itself to the tsar's knout and lash; this applies especially to the educated section of the bourgeoisie, the so-called representatives of the liberal professions (teachers, physicians, lawyers, university and high-school students). Groaning under the yoke are the oppressed nations and religious communities in Russia, including the Poles, who are being driven from their native land and whose most sacred sentiments are being outraged, and the Finns, whose rights and liberties, granted by history, the autocracy is arrogantly trampling underfoot. Groaning under the yoke are the eternally persecuted and humiliated Jews who lack even the miserably few rights enjoyed by other Russian subjects —the right to live in any part of the country they choose, the right to attend school, the right to be employed in government service, and so forth. Groaning are the Georgians, Armenians, and other nations who are deprived of the right to have their own schools and be employed in government offices, and are compelled to submit to the shameful and oppressive policy of Russi-fication so zealously pursued by the autocracy. Groaning are the many millions of Russian non-conformists who wish to believe and worship in accordance with the dictates of their conscience and not with the wishes of the orthodox priests. Groaning are . . . but it is impossible to enumerate all the oppressed, all who are persecuted by the Russian autocracy. They are so numerous that if they were all aware of this, and were aware who their common enemy is, the despotic regime in Russia would not exist another day. Unfortunately, the Russian peasantry is still downtrodden by agelong slavery, poverty and ignorance; it is only just awakening, it does not yet know who its enemy is. The oppressed nations in Russia cannot even dream of liberating themselves by their own efforts so long as they are opposed not only by the Russian government, but even by the Russian people, who have not yet realised that their common enemy is the autocracy. There remain the working class, the little people among the urban population, and the educated section of the bourgeoisie.
IDK though. Sounds a bit like tucker carlson with a few marxist words sprinkled in. He was like 20 when he wrote that.

I think it’s an error to assume that stoicism in the face of victimization helps on a quantifiable level in the long run
If someone was being victimized by a group of people, and they stay quiet and stoic, a part of the victimizers might respect that and stop. But we all know the majority wouldn’t. They would see it as invitation to go harder and/or forever

Jibartik I'll continue outperforming you in every single way while you brigade a thousand half-men against me, and defend your right to call me a faggot on TV with a heavy lisp and tears in your eyes. Upper lip quivering as you stand shoulder to shoulder with millions. Pathetically hiding your true feelings, insisting it's not like you have any sort of problem with faggots you just like the word. And how are you supposed to keep up with what they are called anyway, not like you're a faggot yourself after all.
You are a disgrace. A coward who cannot admit his true feelings even to himself. This is why your heart hurts, Jib. Humiliation is normally considered painful.
Hope this motherfuckin helps you little pissants who can't even come correct. Who have to lie to yourselves, tell yourselves trans ppl are mentally ill and therefore that's why you have to be ruthlessly nasty with them -- err I mean wait, that doesn't add up ???? you're still a piece of shit psycho ??? so what in the fuck are you even talking about as you engage with the same bullshit over and over for years ???
Must be straight up retarded if there's any confusion left in that walnut. Just accept that you're a Nazi already, but too fagtarded cuck'd by culture to manifest it in racism or cultural imperialism that respects your ancestors or anything else remotely compelling. Little tiny atomized half men fighting exactly whom they are told and no more. The only dick chopped off is yours.

Yeah, trans people have blunted their feelings. Whereas fascists are super in touch with them. As they defend their right to be vicious using linguistic technicalities, they display the finer sense of empathy. No Saturday Morning Cartoons inside that head. :rolleyes:
Also it's totally cool to equate trans people with blade chop chop surgical wound sliceeee ugly gash blood. Not hate speech at all! And I suck, I'm super sensitive for taking this "wrongly". And you aren't influenced by the television whatsoever. And you definitely aren't exploding with nonsense in a completely misbegotten sense of victimhood. Yeah. I am the one here playing the victim, by quoting you. Only I can play the victim by definition, like they say on the TV -- which you do not watch. Right.
Now put away the hate-adjacent jibberish. You've crossed over. You're just spewing the latest slurs now. Bladey chop. So say what you mean with me, Jibby: I'm hurting. My soul is empty. This ennui has taken everything from me. I know you feel the same and like me cannot love. Can we then find meaning in hatred? Fuck faggots. Make a spectacle of their suffering for me. Let's find out. We can all be victims.

Political Science already shows that in the long run in modern States, the people paying off poor people eventually take over the people paying the ultra rich. At some point, they're just too damn expensive. You really don't need to give people all that much to get their vote, considering they are used to nothing.

Yes, because free trade hurts american workers and incentivizes companies to move jobs over seas, where labor costs are much lower. If you're the president of the united states, you're supposed to care about US citizens. It's a crazy idea I know.
"Free trade" is just another terrible idea with a happy-sounding name.

High paid manufacturing jobs were the result of labor bargaining power that mostly kicked off during the great depression. You can't just put it all back together again because the idiots that voted for Reagan finally realized their fucked.

Let me get this straight. the new liberal is,
- NO manufacturing at home where we have regulations (that we vote for)
- continue to move all manufacturing where there is no regulation and a language barrier as well as a military barrier for journalism
- Instead of bringing jobs back, now we just get free money to buy those things?

But they wouldnt if they had to stay and they would upgrade their facilities and iphones would cost the SAME as they do now and so would overpriced john deer tractors. The environment would be better and there would be more happily employed people.

We have a service based economy. So there are a lot more people doing that.
But we still have jobs that are similar to factory work. Like warehouse work. It's just we pay them shit because now the workforce has given up all its leverage.
Basically trump bringing up this idea that manufacturing is gonna come back -- its a dumb idea for older people that remember the high pay and STILL don't accept that was because of unions and New Deal norms. They think there is some kind of thing within the manufacturing that made it high pay.
That was completely incidental. If we were nothing but a farm country -- we would be talking about the good old days of high paid field hands.

none of you can talk about anything politilcal without reverting it into a trump policy discussion my god
try asking the democrats to look inward and dont be rediculous with this nonsense about how AI manufacturing will be cheaper than human manufacutring so we should get rid of human manufacutring
america was on track to being an itally or a sweeden or any other country that had pride in their country, their workers, and their products that they make
we built a country where you could have mass manufacturing AND a healthy workforce, reuglation, and it balanced out, for 50 years this ran strong
then we let people rape and pillage it and now here we are.
its a cultural thing, even if you werent hung up on a trump argument, you're thinking about the bottom dollar from a PRICE point perspective, youre not thinking about the rewards you get from a society that takes pride in the thigns they build
And if the nation tried to bring in manufacturing we could do it
Go watch the movie American Factory... the workers wanted to work, they just didnt want to compete with exploited workers in china, and because we think about the bottom line, they said, no factories then.
