The “lung float” test claims to help determine if a baby was born alive or dead, but many medical examiners say it’s too unreliable. Yet the test is still being used to bring murder charges — and get convictions.
I think they’re just really loud. Most people aren’t like that. But since the republican party can’t seem to win elections fairly anymore, they’ve decided to throw the rules out and go for fascism.
Didn’t we get to that point by the loud ones being able to vote their chosen into office though? That’s the part that surprises me, that there were enough of them to get the proper people in office to dismantle the country’s democratic process.
A lot of it was a coordinated effort to gerrymander. They lost the popular vote by almost 7 million votes in both of the last two elections. There’s also been a lot of foreign countries targeting misinformation and propaganda campaigns in the U.S., Russia, China, Vietnam, Iran.
And we’ve been buying it unfortunately. They’ve been attempting to sow anger on the left and the right, and make it seem like everyone is more extreme than most people are, which has furthered the divide on both sides of the political spectrum.
Unfortunately, there’s also roughly 20-25% of the population who just eats this crap up, and they’re the extremists now dominating national headlines.
Sadly, the electoral college is the reason we are in this mess right now.
I believe that’s also a reason for the rise of racism we see today
People subconsciously know that their wealth (even if it’s not much it’s still better than that of people born in most parts of Africa or Asia) is mostly built on exploiting those people historically
Then either you have to give up some of that power and wealth if you accept that they are just as human as you or just have to draw a line and look down on them
Why are we trying so hard to go backwards to the 1700s?
It seems just the American religious right are doing that. There just seems to be many more of them than I first imagined.

Men who are terrified of the loss in power. They can’t stand the idea that they could ever be held accountable.

Because religion is the root of all evil
beacause god!
Hmm, what was very powerful in the 1700s, that lost so much power nowadays…
