Owning land without any taxes or anything.

So doesn’t that mean the US didn’t really ever have separation of powers? Sounds like the door to fascism wasn’t locked and we just used the honour system.
About a month ago I made this comment about Biden jailing trump:
https://sh.itjust.works/comment/11668328
People downvoted at the time but I knew the writing was on the wall. We were always gonna arrive here in 4 years.
Why would he do that though?
Biden is the status quo president, why would he be a martyr?
Ban felons from running for president.
Pretty good rule tbh
Also, here is me saying he should jail trump a while ago when they were arguing that a president could do anything:

As in republicans could veto the nomination?
Could dems veto the new justices?
Sorry im not American and am trying to understand. I thought dems could have but chose not too due to integrity.
Why isn’t anyone constantly trolling trump about this??
How? Wouldn’t what he did be legal when he did it?
Denied as in dems were unable to or chose not to?
I was talking about the forceful oppression of opposition. That is an element that has existed in the US for a long time.
US has had no dictator yet but a president has much more power than a prime minister.
If you consider fascism to be a spectrum, then US has always had these elements. Dictatorship is basically the end of said spectrum.
So I’ve had this issue too, it’s because we can’t agree on the definition.
I use the definition in the dictionary and based on that, US could fall under it, kind of loosely but technically correct.
I support public transport but I really don’t know how to convince people. I live in North America.
But all those are poor people who got rich via crime since they didn’t really have other avenues.
The Batman lore has a lot of hidden messages about social class and hierarchy which doesn’t translate well to today.
How much are they paying? And how much for the expert to be bribed to change their mind?
Asking for a friend.
We can’t keep reacting to them and treating every election like it’s the last night at the Alamo.
Thank you! While I do agree, voting for Biden is a no brainer when it comes to the binary choice, as someone from another country, this shit is frustrating.
You guys have had the same tone since 2016. I get it but clearly there is a huge crack in the system that is just propagating more and more.
The rest of the world is worried, as in worried long term, not just for November.
Yeah I’m not a fan of the fire fox icon changes either.
Bernie did in 2020.
I think people misunderstood my comment.
Biden being the choice in 2020 didn’t fix anything, it only delayed the problem.
As evidence by this year’s election.
This is the answer,
100 different civilizations could have happened in our galaxy in the last 1 million years with only a few centuries of them emitting detectable signals.
And it could be worse, it could be 10 civilizations in the last 1 billion years.
Really? When did it start cause during all my history classes I didn’t hear about it.
I thought taxes were introduced at a certain point, not that they’ve been here since the dark ages.
Do you have anything I can read up on about this?
