      I’m not convinced he cares that much about Epstein. As far as not liking anything that makes him look bad, sure. But he’s sending out armed thugs to murder Americans and getting away with it. Why should he care about being outed as a pedophile?

          No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

          He cannot “accept … [an] Office … from any … foreign State.” I suppose he might argue that “accepting” and “seizing by force” are not the same thing.

          Or Congress could pass an act to allow it.

          Edit: Or, more realistically, someone will complain to the Supreme Court and they’ll find a reason to avoid ruling on the issue and Sotomayor will write an angry dissent but nothing will change.

      I think you mean more blurred, not less.

      A less blurred line would be more distinct, providing a stronger, more obvious separation between the two.

      A more blurred line is fuzzier, making it more difficult to tell where one ends and the other starts.

      I get what you’re saying from the context, but the way you phrases it makes it sound like it’s becoming more clearly defined that Trump is not Hitler. Generally, more “blurring of the lines” equates to a thing becoming less clearly distinguishable from another thing.

        If one circle is blurry, it can look like a Venn diagram.

        As it gets more focused, it looks like the Venn just overlaps more than it did originally.

        Then one day, everyone’s like “wait a minute, it’s been a single blurry circle the whole time” and everyone can see it.

        It’s not common usage now, but has before. So maybe they switched it up on accident, but if it was intentuonal then it wasn’t necessarily wrong. They just meant as the differences get more defined, we realize they aren’t really differences.

(Also literally what US Japanese were told before being rounded up and put in concentrations camps despite obeying the law, but that’s less known)

              Bruv they aren’t committing more crime. That’s one of the reasons people are mad. Immigrants literally commit less crimes than nationals. Your argument for minorities committing more crimes is flawed because the only reason you think they commit more crimes is because police arrest them more, whether they were doing something illegal or not. “We target these people because we’ve targeted these people before”

          You can do a lot less with $100K in the USA than in other countries. Americans get paid more because they immediately have to pay that back out on expenses that are covered by taxes in civilised countries. So the pay sounds much better but it really isn’t. You’re falling into the trap of thinking “if we just did it like the Americans and didn’t pay for any common goods, we’d have more money in our pockets.” You would, for about 5 minutes until the bills came. Then you’d have less, and also live in a dysfunctional society where everyone is miserable and angry and defensive. Left wing politics is what protects a society from this fate. It’s not worth throwing it all away for a slightly cheaper graphics card.

              Check your homeowners insurance cost and property taxes before you start talking about how cheap houses are in Texas. It can run $18k/year in insurance and another 10k in property taxes for a $400k house… If you put 80k down on a $400k house, the mortgage is roughly $2100/month in principle and interest, plus another $933ish per month for Property taxes($5000/year), insurance($5000/year), and hoa fees($1200/year). Your housing cost is ~$3k/month. Property taxes go up every year on top of that. They are limited to a 10%/year increase but historically, that translates to basically a guaranteed 10%/year increase, especially in the last 10 years. Insurance premiums have more than doubled in the last 10 years as well.

                That’s also not covering the god awful electricity stability so you want some sort of generator or battery backup so you don’t literally freeze to death in the middle of winter. Basic starter generators are what, $10k right? And then $2k in gas a year? Minimum.

                  To run a heater or ac, you need a significant generator. I have been looking at battery systems and to run an existing residential ac, its like 10k and you need two inverters. Where I am, the power failures have been minimal and manageable (30 minute intervals every couple months) The exception was Hurricane Beryl and we were out of power for 3 days. I intermittently ran a generator for our fridge and the neighbors to charge stuff but even running a window unit was not an option on our 5000w generator. It burned maybe 2 gallons of gas?

                  Running an electric central air heater is also essentially out of the question. With a gas heater, you just need to run the fan and not heat the elements.

                  Despite the health risks, that is why we still use. Gas water heaters, gas furnaces, gas dryers, and a gas stove in our house. I want the fallback of running stuff without power. The grid is also shitty to the point (in some areas) that it fried my uncles induction stove, fridge, and ovens even living in a major city.

                  That also wouldn’t have helped during the winter storm in Austin because the gas supply basically froze and lost pressure so those folks were really hurting.

                  I think the big built in generators run 15k plus and run off natural gas. I did learn that they also require a maintenance subscription (because of course they do) and thats like 2k a year iirc.

          I think you’re looking at averages and not median. The US has a lot more billionaires and now trillionaires. Median household income in Australia is $1800/week and in the US it’s $1500/week and plummeting plus our unemployment is now through the roof to a degree that’s not even being measured accurately. And we go broke from healthcare.

You and your future generations would die in the streets begging for sovereignty.

              There is a difference between the America of 30 years ago and now that you may not realize. You reference housing and yeah 30 years ago you could afford housing (possibly) but now private equity has purchased housing so new home ownership is getting impossible. You mentioned American laptops (made in China) and operating systems (Linux is from Finland), but the breakthroughs that allowed for current American tech dominance were based on policies that have been dismantled and now currently exist due to monopolies. We are on a downward trend over here where we are living off the accomplishments of old. Think about it like IBM. They were a tech powerhouse until they moved to being a services company and then became a shadow of their former self. They still exist and are a big company but nothing compared to what they were. That’s America now. Australia has the potential to take the reins if they DO NOT follow the current US example as do many other countries.

              I submit that you have no fucking clue what America is supposed to be, and that you’re just getting your jollies off of parroting jingoistic conservative dogma.

          I stand corrected. And it sat dormant until 2 hours ago. Whatever the reason for that is is irrelevant, but you’re clearly here to fuck with people.

          So, from American, I say you’re welcome to move here and enjoy the fall of this empire in real time with us. Until you do that, stfu about how wonderful life would be with a senior citizen with onset dimentia sunsetting before the world’s eyes while he unleashes his own private thug army to destroy people’s lives.

      You should be able to get a free room with meals at the nearest loony ward. Just show them this comment…

      “You need a real leader” and your first pick is Donald Trump?! Lmao. You need to touch grass or get a lobotomy. Reset your brain, because Trump is the worst leader of all time. Many Roman Caesars were better even.

          If I had a dollar for every time on Lemmy that I encountered a mysognistic CS student that thinks they know more than they do, I would now have a dollar. And that’s quite a fucking shame, considering I’ve been here for years.

          The industry you’re trying to break into was founded by women, LGBT folks, and people who envisioned technology as a path towards the betterment of humanity. Do better. You’re acting like a disgrace to its legacy.

      You literally have no idea what you’re talking about. You are believing media instead of looking into where your wages are going and getting involved. That or you have massive sexual insecurity and for some reason you want to submit to a wrinkled, 80-year-old millionaire and have invented a very weird narrative for why that gets you so hot.
