  • Assassination of George Lincoln Rockwell

    Jump

  • "Despite attention and widespread notoriety, neither Rockwell nor his party achieved political power and his following was largely insignificant."

    That's a hell of an epitaph.

  • "But when truth becomes a byword with which to beat our enemies into submission at the cost of real human beings made in the image of God, when we hold no responsibility for vile language as long as we cloak it in the guise of “speaking the truth,” we risk becoming like Pilate, engaging in philosophical wordplay about the nature of veritas before inflicting state sponsored violence on an innocent man."

  • 3 is still great! Today's was difficult because you didn't start with many double green swaps; you had to set up a single green swap and anticipate a double.

  • What percentage of the world population ages 30+ do you suppose is capable of financially supporting themselves & living & thriving independently?

    Jump

  • Agreed on the independence part. We are much more interdependent than we let on (in the US especially, but other places as well).

  • What percentage of the world population ages 30+ do you suppose is capable of financially supporting themselves & living & thriving independently?

    Jump

  • If everyone 30+ got together and collectively decided what thriving meant, then worked to reach those goals, then I think we would all be thriving.

    The majority isn't hoping for a vacation home or to send their kids to Ivy League schools or to buy a bigger boat. The majority of middle class folk I talk to regard thriving as being comfortable enough to send the kids to some postsecondary school and take a few weeks vacation out of the country. They want to have enough to retire at 65 and live a modest life, be able to spoil their grandkids a little... nothing crazy.

    The ability for all of us to thrive is already here. It is only the slight matter of systemic overhaul that prevents us.

  • Golf Cartification of My City

    Jump

  • If street legal in your area, golf carts should be treated like any other small vehicle like a moped. Restrict it to 35 mph or lower roads, keep it out of bike lanes, register it if needed... the list goes on.

    You mention PTC. There, they treat it like any other vehicle. You absolutely can get a DUI (and they love to hand them out). But PTC is a cart community and was born with those laws in place. In a more urban setting where carts are mixing with other light EVs, of course you should hold them to the same rules, but the laws haven't been written yet.

    Please don't condemn an inexpensive, more sustainable mode of transportation just because a few douche-nozzles are trying to ruin it. A cart seats 4, runs off cheap rechargeables, has a small footprint and low wear and tear on our roads, is a neighborhood level form of transportation and is an attainable EV for anyone who wants to dip a toe in.

    Driving across a park in your cart and tearing up the grass while being a tool should always end in a clothesline.

    Edit: Sorry, I just realized I replied to the wrong person. We are arguing the same point. No animosity to you. Thumbs up.
