Credit where credit is due, to reddit for making them go to court over it.
I have a feeling that an actual martial law declaration would be enough to motivate a general strike.
This actually happened when early nationalists tried to overthrow the Weimar Republic in interwar Germany. Some old generals and their men took over the capital and declared themselves in charge of the country. A general strike was declared, and the whole country shut down. The generals were then left "in charge" of a totally shut down society. Needless to say, the coup lasted a short enough time that it's usually not even mentioned in world history lessons. This whole event pre-dated Hitler's first beer hall putsch by like a decade or something, if memory serves.
It happens. Just be aware that someday you could have a kid, and they could really hate intellectual stuff and love sports, and say stuff like "my parents are so boring, they only talk about science and philosophy stuff but I want to talk about..."
Just different people being interested in different things. Only important thing is that everyone is okay with different people actually being different.
This is more of a system issue than bad behavior of an individual charity.
Charities can underpay a little bit, because working for a charity has its own appeal. But if you want a talented, experienced person to run your org, you have to consider what they could make if they worked for someone else. San Diego is not a cheap city, and has its fair share of CEO positions.
If you really want to stretch your dollar though, local food banks are probably a better bet.
No, they've been getting progressively crazier since 2016.
2000 was fairly divisive, it went to the Supreme Court after all. But it wasn't even a fraction this dramatic, people mostly shrugged and figured GWB would be like his father, which was unfortunate, but sane at any rate. Nobody was really predicting 9/11 and the invasion of Iraq.
2004 was pretty dull. John Kerry challenged GWB but felt sort of like an empty suit.
2008 was nice, Obama was a strong and exciting candidate vs the very known quantity of McCain, who was a moderate repub known for bipartisanship. Sarah Palin provided for hours of entertaining impersonations by people like Tina Fey, but since she was the VP candidate nobody really cared.
2012 was dull. Romney was a strong candidate, another moderate repub. But Obama was fine, he hadn't broken the country or anything. Brought us out of a recession, even if people were upset about bank bailouts and stuff. Lot of people got health insurance.
Then it starts getting spicy.
I mean, tbf that was admittedly last millennium.
"If I have to create stories so that ~~the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people~~ we win, then that's what I'm going to do."
Yea, we already knew that JD, thanks.
Eh, there's one additional way we can stop them. A landslide victory that puts her massively over the electoral college threshold would make a handful of compromised counties completely irrelevant.
lol This is almost as good as getting him to say out loud that he's never had sexual relations with any living room furniture.
Ah, LinkedIn, exactly where I want to get nuanced answers to weird questions from.
Have to admit, Extinction Rebellion is a pretty good name for an activist group.
... took you long enough to figure it out.
Yes, warfare in the Information Age is a real pain in the ass.
