Didn't you know that if you criticize one thing it means the opposite is perfect and beyond reproach!

Yea but where? There’s a push for it in my state. Drove past a new area that will be a neighborhood of cookie cutter SFH, probably with driveways too short to contain full size vehicles. And they’ll cost more than half a million so I’m not sure how that’s affordable. Anyway. It’s being built on the flood plain. 8/10 flood factor.

Wrong. They let Cambridge collect it on their platform. Huge difference.

The rest of your post is irrelevant.

For one thing, today isn't 2015

And we should ban them too. I love this argument. We need better user data privacy laws, and this whataboutism does not change the fact that China is a hostile foreign nation.

I can appreciate that people view Google and Meta and so on as very similar in their transgressions. But as was pointed out in the original comment, this is a cost to benefit ratio type of analysis for the federal government and they gain more by keeping Meta and Google going and can enact other measures to prevent that from hurting them (usually reactionary), so to them this is fine. It is and always has been about what the US government can to do protect itself and enrich itself. Enrichment doesn't always come in the form of monetary value.

If you're upset at your own government (or government adjacent tech entities) gathering this type of data from users, you should be for banning them too, not keeping tik tok.

Holding one of three branches is not "in power."

All spending bills have to originate in the republican controlled house. Anything the administration tries to do on it's own has to survive a heavily politicized Supreme Court. A Supreme Court that would be radically different without the Trump presidency. We'll be dealing with those Trump appointees for a generation and they'll do far more harm than he ever did. Not enough people voting blue in 2016 is going to have very long lasting consequences.

House is 220 R to 212 D

Senate is 51 D (+I) to 49 R

The last time there was a Dem Supermajority was over a decade ago and it lasted about a month.

And the Supreme Court is stacked with Republicans with lifetime appointments.

But yes the blue currently in power that tried multiple times to cancel student loan debt, enshrine reproductive rights, protect and expand healthcare coverage, raise the minimum wage. The current blue that successfully ended several huge corporate mergers, fined companies for raising prices of goods, and has a housing plan to add 3 Million available units. Literally everything the meme cares about and more is as simple as voting correctly for your interests.

Not the case but nice try, repub

Clinton was 30 fucking years ago and Republicans have been stonewalling ever since then on every since one of these issues.

What the fuck are you talking about about????

Clinton is one the few presidents in the last 100 years that has operated on a SURPLUS. Meaning he’s the only president to lower the national debt

My thoughts exactly

I think they are trying to be funny, but just coming across as an insensitive fuck gnat.

And I hope they succeed. But this has been talked about for 3-4 years now and hasn't happened

Because its a threat to the military. Take all the time you need with this.
