The best argument I came across went something like this: if we show the Democratic Party that we’ll accept something as horrible as genocide as long as the Republicans are worse, then we’ve completely surrendered our agency as voters.

Powerful statement. It was the most coherent, rational, well thought out explanation I’d seen. It didn’t come off as a condescending lecture on morality, either. I actually considered their argument for a couple days, but ultimately, I decided it wasn’t strong enough to risk another Trump administration.

He might have thought he was being classy, compared to Trump, who posed with a can of Goya beans in the Oval Office.

It’s easy to forget how uninformed a lot of people are

Oh, I’d take a free car; but instead of driving it I’d turn around and sell it immediately. Then I’d buy something that wasn’t a badge of shame.

They hedged their bets, holding on to Joanna's rent-controlled apartment in San Francisco just in case they wanted to return.

I have LOTS of sympathy for these people.

Also: the couple has struggled to make friends, McIsaac-Kierklo has not yet mastered the language (or learned much of it)…

Is there any possibility that these two things are related?

Jackasses. I think it’s safe to say that San Francisco doesn’t want them back.

As I recall (I haven’t seen the movie in years) Spacey was pretty damn good.

Musk is a fascist bigot. I wouldn’t drive a Tesla if it was given to me for free. Just walking up to it and seeing that T would piss me off. In a way, I’m glad he refuses to build a cheap EV.

Is it because of the instance they’re posting from, some kind of “award”, or what?
