If a law can be ignored, its merely a suggestion. If a sub-national jurisdiction could just overrule the national government, then the sub-national government is essentially a sovereign nation.
Think of like the UN and “International Laws”, everyone just ignores those. Anything passed by the UN doesn’t matter. Russia continue to invade Ukraine; Israel continues to genocide Gaza; “UN Resolutions” are just “Strongly Worded Letters”
If nazis win this time, there wont ever be a nuremberg, because the planet will go through rapid climate change and everyone is gonna be dead.
Oh I guess because a text-only forum loses the real life expressions.
Its more like: “Bruh 💀” - Like it’s funny, but in a fucked up dystopian context, ya know what I mean?
Lmfao
Gambling
[Poor People] Delusion of winning big VS [Rich People] Just enjoying spending their time throwing money away because they have endless supply of money
Transportation services
[Poor People] Having to ride a Bus because you can’t afford a car VS [Rich People] Personal Driver driving you everywhete
Posse Comitatus only applies to those wearing military uniforms. Dress them up with police uniforms and suddenly it’s “a okay”… 🤷♂️
But how do you install F-Droid after, say, a factory reset because you had to troubleshoot something?
Other than the usual ACAB and distrust of government.
Probably parents.
I used to think they actually looked out for my interests.
Now I know the harsh reality is that:
No one, not your parents, not your siblings, not even your “best” friends, literally no one will care about you. Its every person for themselves
Welcome to like more than 50% of the world.
This entire fucking planet is a dystopia.
Ironically, if your situation is “Urgent”, you do not go to an “Urgent Care”. Its a misnomer.
I had chest pains and the Urgent Care I went to just told me to go to an ER. I’m like… 🧐 they didn’t have blood tests lmfao. “Urgent” Care is for flu and like ear infections, not for a fucking heart attack or gasterointestinal problems.
Edit: It turned out to be fucking anxiety. Lmfao I hate myself. I was on my parent’s insurance so they covered most of it.
But this is not the only aspect of Google’s autocratization; Apps who’s developers have enabled the Google Play Integrity APIs will not run on custom roms.
Purism is sketchy btw:

(Louis Rossman videos explaining how a customer was denied a refund for a “pre-order” and then they tried to coerce Louis to take down the video.)
Edit: typo
Its actually funny (in a fucked up way, that is), because for appointments, you have to pre-pay, so if you are already bankrupt, you might as well just go to the ER where you do not have to pre-pay.
No, you’re thinking of student loan debt; but even for student loan debt, that are some special circumstances where you can get rid of those debt.
Or just don’t pay the bills and debt is gone in 7 years 🤷♂️
What do you even got to lose?
I’d be lying if I said I didn’t care.
Its human nature, its encoded in our dna, in the past, social ostrization means death, so that feeling of “not wanting to get socially ostricized” persisted to modern day.
Btw you can actually see who downvoted you with https://lemvotes.org/, to see if they are actually real users or just bots/trolls.
I usually just assume any amount of downvotes between 1-5 to be bots/trolls. For upvotes, not getting upvotes doesn’t matter as long as I don’t get downvoted. I try to ignore votes, but like, my monkey brain just can’t stop being curious about the score. 🤷♂️
There’s also that fear of weirdos start trying to dox you if they didn’t like something you said. Like “I dislike Linux” for example (not my actual opinion, but like imagine if someone said that, they’d get fucking downvoted to hell and stalked around the fediverse)
As for other user’s scores: Seeing upvotes/downvotes on other user’s posts/comments does not really change my agreement/disagreement of their statements
Perhaps its something embarassing or potentially very political which they don’t want to remain on the internet forever.
I guess we can add a rule stating that “By participating in this community, you agree to give permission that all your posts/comments can be archived” like under Creative Commons rules. And have a bot automatically archive it.
But then again, there’s an argument that this violates privacy.
The problem isnt “robots replacing humans”
The problem is: WHERE THE FUCK IS OUR UBI?
Bro that is so gonna get HitchBot’ed
a photo was tweeted, showing that the robot had been stripped “beyond repair” and decapitated in Philadelphia. The robot was located by some people following its progress on its website. The head was never found.
Also, like… if you wanna replace human workers, fine, just give us the UBI.
Otherwise, riots would be justified.
Your phone typically isn’t actually listening to you.
It is if you have any “voice assistant” on.
In these federal system such as the US, federal law is supreme and overrides sub-national laws. Roe V Wade, although it wasn’t technically a law, carried the weight of a law and legalized abortion nationwide. No state could just outright ban abortion, at least not until Dobbs decision reversed the previous Roe decision. Same with Gay Marriage, its now a federal law and states cannot override that.
For those that you could override, say, minimum wage: That you’re technically not overriding. The Federal minimum is still $7.25/hour, a state law making their state $15/hour does not contradict that at all; The federal law did not put a limit on states passing their own laws.
