The guy literally got brain damage and became more conservative. You can't buy that kind of political commentary.
Smells like a Manchurian Candidate.
Alwyas seems to happen to only one of the two parties. Almost like it's on purpose.
I got brain damage and became more leftist.
He's also strangely against lab grown meat.. which I just flat out don't understand. It's unproven on whether or not it's even economically viable... and PA is famous for scrapple. So I mean.. calling anything else slop is confusing.
It's a well known fact that Republicans like killing animals. Just ask Kristi Noem
Why wouldn’t it be economically viable?
I remember reading this article on the subject and finding it interesting: https://archive.ph/8xyWx
My terrible summary of that article is that it's really hard to turn cell goop into something that is recognizably hamburger. There's a shitload of structure to meat so you have to make the cells do their "turn into this part of a cow" thing. That's been really difficult to scale up. One shortcut you can take is to use actual animal meat as a starter, but then you're no longer making vegetarian meat, and I seem to recall there being some other issue with that.
I really want lab grown meat to work, but I'm losing hope.
If we made a continuously long chain of meat using artificial cells, at what point is is it just the cells? Or is it still the Meat of Theseus?
On paper it totally should be. I mean, you're not growing animals, just the parts you want to eat in a vat.
But well, in actuality it may follow the same path as vertical farming.
Hopefully he'll end up in the same circle of hell as Kyrsten Sinema (if I remember my Dante correctly, this means that Satan himself will be nibbling on their heads for all eternity alongside Judas, Brutus, and Cassius).
Id like to see him have another stroke.
Do is he a piece of shit who lied to get into office or did he lose his mind after having a stroke?
Side note: continuing to run for Senate after having a stroke isn't bravery, it's insane.
His Israel support is likely all bought by AIPAC money. Our system has to get campaign finance reformed so badly. Money in politics has destroyed this country and made every politician have to capitulate to their donors or face primary challengers who can out spend them. A good example is last election when these tech bros straight up crushed Sherrod Brown who was merely skeptical of crypto. It’s the biggest obstacle to change.
If I'm employed as a bus driver, and I decide overnight that I'm just going to start working dispatch without approval, I lose my job.
We need a mechanism to remove representatives who have chosen to no longer represent what they did when elected. Or, we need to stop using representatives.
Recall elections are a thing, are they not?
In theory, the election cycle acts as that mechanism and they'd fail to get reelected. However, a combination of the 2-party-system and general voters' apathy when it comes to politics means that in the vast majority of cases an incumbent just needs to slap a D or R next to their name and they're in office for as long as they want.

I hope ICE comes to deport a Brazilian women that lives with him.
Definitely don’t leave ICE an anonymous tip. That would be bad.
I can only assume that the author of the article is either a few years old or slept through the last forty years, because yes, conservatism is exactly what you voted for. And that's the problem, no matter which team color you pick, you get conservative outcomes.
Shockingggg
