I was foggy on the details but yeah that sounds familiar.

there had been other reported incidents of people who had hung themselves having done something similar

nervous laughter What the fuck.

Don’t wait another 15 please.

What a terrible day to have eyes.

You just HAD to make it worse.

So in love with this band. Been listening to them for years and it’s just so timeless.

Now everybody will be watching this vote.

Lol just a little too optimistic and not really grounded in the current political climate.

I’m talking about a subject I know and you’re now claiming I refuse to continue learning. Like wtf man get a grip. Good day.

I honestly don’t know anything about killing sparrows in China. I can’t speak to it like I can the New Deal, and it would be folly of me to try and brush up just to respond to your red herring.

I don’t think you can even call them unintended consequences when it was big business that help shape those parts of the laws. The fact that they encouraged monopolies and price-fixing was entirely what the goal was. It was the administration’s poor attempt at appeasing the owner class because FDR was in a position that was forcing him to give the working class something for once.

Are you at all familiar with the subject at hand or just talking to talk?

NIRA was an utter failure, considered both by the people that lived through it and historians because of the reasons I listed. So bad that it had to be repealed within 2 years. Like idk why you keep bringing up Mao dude.

It was apart of Roosevelt’s New Deal, his administration was the driving force behind it. Like yes it was legislation but is the point you are trying to make that the New Deal had nothing to do with FDR?

The National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933 (NIRA) included the promotion of monopolies and price-fixing, which had a negative impact on small businesses, and inadequate protection of workers’ rights and collective bargaining (7a a single line).

That doesn’t include airports which add any major city not in that red line.

Oo ooo, can I go next?

FDR wasn’t the great working class champion he has been lionized as. The New Deal was a compromise that was a direct response to the working class organizing and beginning to make demands. It’s purpose was to mitigate the failings of capitalism, because the contradictions could never be directly addressed. Roosevelt sided with big business, in both agriculture and banking, that added speed to consolidation of corporations we are now fully having to deal with.

You and me both bud.

I can’t split up the fambly.

Wasn’t even directed at anyone in particular, just stating the observation.

That Trump is worse does not trivialize the fact.

The 542 drone strikes that Obama authorized killed an estimated 3,797 people, including 324 civilians. As he reportedly told senior aides in 2011: “Turns out I’m really good at killing people. Didn’t know that was gonna be a strong suit of mine.”

When you hear people insult liberals do you always take it personally?

Liberals like Obama because he did it while keeping a low profile so they could keep their conscious clean.

MAGA like Trump cuz he gloats about it so they can revel in it.
