Reverend Barber is an amazing advocate for civil rights. This is a disgrace.

No - no one wants to to YOUR job for your terrible shitty pay.

Unemployment is at an extremely low rate. If you don't have workers, your labor budget is too low.

Wow. She looks wild. I like it.

She's smiling, so you know it's all okay

Note to self- return to this thread and make a joke about the "honor system," but work in the words "your honor."

I'll take "Unsurprising But Disappointing Headlines" for $2k...

Feel free to believe the government, I guess and follow blindly into war.

I think it's smart to ask questions. Especially when the WMDs in Iraq were 100% incorrect.

Again, I don't believe most 9/11 conspiracies. But I do think it makes sense to ask questions when things don't align.

Buddy. Calm down. I'm not making any argument here. I'm just saying given what the huge response was to 9/11 and how it seemed to largely miss the mark of who was involved - asking questions is a reasonable thing.

[–] Smytty@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Correct. And neither Afghanistan nor Iraq had anything to do with 9/11. It has been proven over and over that it was the Saudis, but we don't want to attack them.

9/11 was used as an excuse to attack Afghanistan for their Taliban and strict religious beliefs. Then 9/11 was used as an excuse to invade Iraq for the WMDs. Both were not involved at all with 9/11.

People and corporations made billions of dollars off these wars, and it's reasonable to ask why they were started in the first place.

Not every conspiracy.

But ones that lead to starting baseless wars for oil and money are certainly worth asking questions about.

[–] Smytty@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (9 children)

Because the government is notorious for their transparency?

[–] Smytty@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Okay. Not "force" but just encourage.

My impression is that there's tons of lurkers here who aren't contributing.

You can make a post without it being a shit post.

Go to your local community board and mention a great pizza joint. Or a hike. Or share a pic of an animal you've seen.
