There is no need to lie, as this is easily verifiable, eg:
> A federal court on January 31 temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s government-wide pause on federal grant funding. But soon after, the administration argued the president’s directives were still in effect.
Cringes hard in the Yemeni civil war. Or the conflict in the Donbass. Or the various insurgencies in the Sahel, or the war in Darfur, or the Syrian civil war.
> Same hyperboles were said in 2017 and we were fine
Were you fine? The Supreme Court was stacked by blatantly political appointees who then declared that the president has immunity for official business, even if it's blatantly illegal. This is a disgusting precedent to set, yet here we are.
>Were you fine? The Supreme Court was stacked by blatantly political appointees
Supreme Court appointments have been political for decades in the US. Sad? Yes. New? No.
>who then declared that the president has immunity for official business
Not a surprising ruling at all, and not a political one. Not a "disgusting" precedent. It is a very narrow ruling and is consistent with how these things have worked for decades. There is an impeachment process, you know that right?
Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.
I appreciate your comments about public transit and Zig compile times, so I don't want to ban you, but if you keep this up we're going to have to. It would be good if you'd stop.
IMO it's good for diversity to have some Marxists in the mix but not if they're posting things like "Lick the boot harder rightoid".
But perhaps you could deal with the widespread flag brigading of all Trump-critical posts such as the recent one about category theory research defunded? I apologize for my tone but I remain deeply concerned about the current regime, which is supported by many HN-adjacent figures like Paul Graham and Marc Andreessen.
