Yeah, it's a terrible "meme", but If rather not give it a platform.

Concluding an ABC television news broadcast

Three American media outlets that weren't censored by the government. How do you think this is handled in Russia? In China?

Seems like you're missing a ton of nuance in manufacturing consent, and have turned from the frying pan into the fire in that sense.

Yes, Western media is biased towards corporations. This is most clearly seen in anything labeled "finance" or "money", but is pervasive.

But the only time I can ever think of Western media doing anything on the scale of censoring the 1989 Tiananmin Square Massacre is the Iraq MWD debacle. And they've never done anything like the Great Firewall.

As a rule the US government does not mislead its own citizens the way Russia and China do.

And even if you're 100% on board with every word Marx has written, I don't understand how that leads one to defend modern day Russia and China.

The West absolutely has problems. And it's good and right to point those out and try to fix them. But to try to paint the East as the answer to stand against the West is dangerous and dumb.

The Ohio Republican party just made a brazen attempt to consolidate power (and failed).

They tried to effectively remove citizen initiatives, because the legislature doesn't control those.

Kevin McCarthy and Ted Cruz are not true believers. Neither are Mitch McConnell or Jim Jordan. MTG and Boeburt may have been at one point. Judge Cannon probably is.

Most of them just get behind him to ride his political wake instead of getting run over by it. They don't have illusions that they can control him at this point.

They are dumb, but not fall for Trump's bullshit dumb. They're dumb in that they're willing to trade the future of the country for short term money and power. They can't see how a rising tide lifts all boats.

The "unfortunately" is weird. The judge is supposed to interpret law, not decide it. And he's determined that this law conflicts with inalienable rights in another law for a particular reason.

I understand people think it's not broad enough, but more specific is more defensible, and more likely to stick.

The GOP leadership want Trump gone. They're not dumb. Trump is destabilizing and damaging to the party. He doesn't give a shit about either the GOP or the country. The GOP is all about a small group of people gaining power together, and they're not in Trump's extremely small circle of one.

But they want his voters, so they'll rarely say that out loud.

Huh, so actual advertising of the instance might be a bad idea?

What are you thinking for the longevity/stability of this project? I'll look around and see if I can find anything about that, maybe in !main .

I love the domain name by the way.

OOP is fine. It's particularly Java culture that's terrible.

I never want to see the word Factory in a class name ever again.

When a Java dev writes in any other language, you can tell. Too many layers of abstraction is a key indicator. They make simple problems complex.

I once inherited a C# website project from a Java dev. I couldn't even figure out how to modify the CSS. And I'm a C# dev.
