This is one of those laws where I fundamentally disagree with the state having the power to make laws like this because the power will be misused, but in this instance, I actually think the law seems fine? Its not just exposing actual luxurious lifestyles like you imply, its also people going into debt to fake a higher level of lifestyle than they actually live, and this self perpetuates through social media like a virus.

You need to do whats best for yourself, but it sounds like Israel would be a better place with your voice in it.

You can dress how you want. If you see a millennial reaction weirdly to what you are wearing, its likely them cringing at a memory of when they wore something similar as a kid. Cyclical fashion trends and all that. With that said, our culture does have a huge issue with fast fashion, and I’d encourage simpler higher quality clothes that wont cycle with trends as often, for the sake of not destroying the planet.

The question still stands, this just reframes it. He had a majority, just not a filibusterer proof one, so why are the Republicans so willing to remove the filibusterer when it gets in there way and the Democrats not?

Really captures the dead eyes.

I suspect you are just a troll as others have said, but in the case you aren’t;

It’s been shown for all crimes, that degree of punishment doesn’t really have much effect on deterrence. People tend to not know what the punishment for any given crime is, they tend to underestimate how likely they are to get caught, and when worrying about consequences they tend to worry about consequences they understand, like how their family or friends will react, not what living in prison for years will be like.

The justice system everywhere is fallible, protections for those in jail aren’t only for the absolutely guilty, they are for the innocent who are incorrectly incarcerated.

Killing someone wont undue what they’ve done. As horrific as it is, the trauma inflicted on someone can’t be undone. You are only putting more suffering into the world when you punish someone without tangible goals.

Other comments are wrong, its complicated residual structures on tv/movies.

You can probably throw together a pretty simple wordpress website without much knowledge. Just keep it mostly out of the box, maybe change the theme.

Here is a noy-very recent example.

As a Canadian, I do see reports of police violence in Canada, and I imagine I’m largely seeing the same stuff you are, so you’ve also likely seen some. With that said, police violence per interaction is a pretty low % everywhere (to be clear, it should be 0), but its like 10x higher in the US than other comparable countries, and the US has a huge population. Because of a combination of those factors I wouldn’t be shocked if like 90-95% of police violence happening in English speaking countries is happening in the US.

Its a meme reference to the Bear vs Man question going around.

I can still see my hands. They look older than I feel.

They do hate them, but generally conservatives believe in personal failings so do direct action against individuals, liberals believe in systemic failings so direct their effort towards changing the system, not the individuals.

30ish

I’m convinced like 95% of people that say they like monkeys have never interacted with one.

/s is a very old internet thing, not a reddit thing. It can be hard to discern jokes on the internet because we don’t know you and we can’t hear your tone.

Its really not and I challenge you to provide stats that say otherwise. Of course its one of the countries with the most racial tension, but that comes along with being one of the most racially diverse.

In the case of wild primates I would believe they know as we would use the word. For Goats, Sheep, Or Equines, I have to imagine its closer to how we get cravings for foods sometimes, because we have some sort of nutrient deficiency that food would correct.

For a while it seemed like his guest quality was generally high enough to be watchable, but its been years.

Yes? C is constant and light travels at C in a vacuum, but lights speed is different in other media.
