    You can sit back and wonder why the fuck we’re still dealing with these petty garbage laws, or… realize the horror at how much taxpayer money is used to write them up, bicker and decide over them and waste time and resources in our legal system.

    Every one of these right-wing, trash laws is a black hole of bullshit, sucking money from our economy, going nowhere, meant to do nothing but point and make a statement they don’t even expect to pass.

    Fuck all of it. You only get to choose to be against them, you can’t choose whether your money was used to poop them into existence.

        I’m all for taxation becoming a “choose your allocation” affair.

          I would just be interested to hear if these fucks—er folks— are interested in proving their own virtue, or if its really as banal and simple as always trying to consolidate further control. You’d think they would learn after that piece some outlet did where they “bought” ad data for Washington DC and powerful internet users’ “interests”/ad profile data.
