If I had to guess, it's because up until now you've held the assumption that the people in power know what they're doing for the most part, and nobody was a dying felon in his last years on earth terrified of going to prison for raping children.

Now you are under no such illusions, and the people in charge ARE dying felons that rape children and have no morals, and the government doesn't even want to try and check or balance itself.

That solar panel looks useful.

Since I have never gone out in nondescript black clothing at night to destroy these things, I can't say from firsthand knowledge....

But yes, yes they are. They make great trickle chargers for large batteries that only get used intermittently. Or string several together and enjoy an ebike battery charger. I have a similarly sized and shaped panel I found somewhere that I use to charge my 18650 bank.

A couple flock cameras near my town keep getting taken out and put back up.

The latest blurry security camera footage to catch the culprit has led to sweet FA since they ride a nondescript dark color mountain bike, wear all black clothing without logos or text, and seem to avoid riding their bike unmasked near businesses with cameras and houses that might have door cameras.

I don't even think they know gender/skin/hair color. Anything other than "average human height" really.

Anyway, shout out to everyone who destroys one of these things. It's illegal, but it's the morally correct thing to do.

it was a guarantee to:

respect Ukraine’s territory (which Russia vialoted, the US didn’t)

bring any violations to the UN security council (which was done, but with Russia having veto power, useless)

Most people I speak to have the impression that any attack on Ukraine meant the US would jump into full scale war mode to defend them. Honestly I wish it were. At least then it would have been harder for the Biden administration to essentially ignore.

"here's a bunch of old equipment, good luck buddy" was technically more than required, but grossly inadequate.

As an American in my 30s...

Just don't trust anything the US says, period.

Who knows if our 4-year mood/tantrum cycle will honor the deal in 15 years, let alone 5.

Take it from me, you don't want to go down the "eugenics" road...

I really don’t like ice. It’s cold, slippery and wet.

And it gets everywhere.

Just like the shitty US fascist police...

For the same reason that half the MAGAts in government that we have crimes + named suspects with mountains of evidence, and still no trial.

The same reason donld Trump incited a crowd of people, on camera, to go try and overthrow the government on a cold January morning 6 years ago, and despite people dying and people being murdered in the attempt, the person we have on camera starting it is now the goddamn president instead of in a cell or pine box.

We have no justice system. It only ever existed for whichever out group is being targeted. The rich and influential don't exist in those groups and instead of trying to hide that like they used to, nowadays they just openly flaunt it.

Even if I did, too late you greedy bigots.

Account less than a month old and posting uplifting news, while being salty about said news in the comments.

I smell astroturf.

American here, most have no idea that Canada has a prime minister and not president, and JT was the last name most of us heard in relation to the Canadian government.

I doubt very much Trump knows who the current PM is, so I could absolutely see him demanding the capture of "president Trudeau"
