They just banned them here in Alabama last week

But it snows in Minnesota. Fuck being cold.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 3 points 1 hour ago

The houses are warm and insulated (in general). The clothing keeps one warm between buildings. Friendly people.

Snow is around for less than 6 months a year.

I feel so bad for normal decent Texans. Their politicians are among the worst in the world. I can’t think of a single Texas Republican who doesn’t deserve the death penalty.

Texas, you're gonna upset Joe Rogan!

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 36 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Joe Rogan is a piece of shit. He became a multi millionaire in California because of the infrastructure and people of California. Then instead of staying and playing taxes to give a bit back to the community, he took his money and ran to Texas.

A classic fuck you I got mine.

That is not why he is a piece of shit.

He is a piece of shit because he is a fascist propagandist. Who cares if he moved money? He enables fascists.

This is why you guys are where you are right now. You have accepted fascism like it's normal.

AMERICANS HAVE NORMALIZED FASCISM BECAUSE OF JOE ROGAN.

That's Tim Horton.

it's not about the weed, it's about making more excuses to detain/arrest/murder brown people

It has been all along.

“You want to know what this [war on drugs] was really all about? The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people. You understand what I’m saying?

We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news.

Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”

~ John Ehrlichman, Assistant to the President for Domestic Affairs under President Richard Nixon
