Seriously though, twitter can burn. There is not a way in the US to handle free speech without allowing hate speech. That should be fixed first. It won't be because the politicians use hate speech.

I like nuclear power! Done correctly. not the way we do it in the US but more like the way France does it or some non-backwards-ass politically driven engineered design.

They don't stay that way. That is one of the sadest things about policing in this country is even people who go into with good intentions get corrupted by the system, and they either leave or convert.

I think that was different. Shouldn’t be conflated. The political discourse in the 80s was a lot different than mid 90s and it has degraded to what it is now.

Reply to Police chief says exorcism and prayer used to fight crime and cartels in Colombia: "The existence of the devil is certain" by ChocolateTsar
There is certainly evil in the world. You don't need to attribute it to supernatural force. Usually human greed and a lust for power are plenty a reason for people to do evil things.
