Not all agriculture is done in full sun. Ginseng, coffee and other important crops do best in shade. And you can put the panels up on grazing land. The critters often appreciate the shade which approximates a savanna environment.

Taking out the fascist figureheads does nothing about the ideology and forces behind the fascism. Make being a Nazi something to be ashamed of again.

It will be more than 12 hours before it happens. But that’s small consolation. Once political violence is in the mix it can very quickly spiral out of control

Unfortunately, I have to agree with you. Also the SS did not do their job. Before the attempt on Trump, people in the crowd were pointing out that guy in camouflage on the roof of that building, yet the secret service/law enforcement did not respond. And the counter sniper waited until the perp took numerous shots to respond.

Beside it not being the proper democratic way of deciding how to be governed, the problem with political violence is that it quickly spirals out of control and can burn everything to the ground.

That is not the way we do things here in the US.

Will they get angry enough to do something about the GOPers that are causing the problems? Probably not.

The Chinese would have landed in Sydney by the time the French laid the keels for the subs in the deal they struck with Australia.

17 years isn’t nearly long enough

I have a Latin surname. I am sure it’s cost me in some circles. But in others it’s an advantage. At least for me I think it kind of evens out.

NGL. That is some really fucked up shit.

Are Latinos over represented in your company with respect to the population? That would be a defensible position for your boss on this. I mean if you had 85% Latinos that could be taken as evidence of some sort of ethnic bias in favor of Latinos.

The Catholic Church is a oligarchic Republic in that the Popes are elected. But only the Cardinals do the electing.

Ranked choice and similar electoral systems are a direct threat to the monopoly on power held by the Dems and the GOPers- which is why we don’t have some sort of a ranked choice balloting system instead of first past the post.

Tell us you are ignorant without telling us you are ignorant. A republic of any kind is a state in which the head of state is elected. The US is a representative constitutional republic in which the representatives and head of state are elected- at least that’s the theory.

I hope they lock her and her co-conspirators up after conviction.
