The issue is Republicans hate people and liberals want the privilege without sacrificing anything. You can't fix that.

You're arguing that Nazis are good people who should be heard. C'mon man. Even you can't think that.

The person you're looking for is Joe Lieberman. He took that 60th vote away which kept the filibuster going.

Congratulations!

Whatever you need to think to be able to sleep at night dude. You were arguing for enlightened centrism which doesn't work and isn't good nor ethical.

What you're arguing for is, essentially, enlightened centrism. An enlightened centrist will view one side wanting to kill 1000 people and another side wanting to kill 0 people and say we need to meet somewhere in the middle. You can see how that's actually not good, I trust.

AI/LLM, etc., will be used to extract further wealth from labor and give it to wealth owners. We see this right now with the Hollywood strikes, we see it with how organizations are laying off staff and leaning into the LLM craze. This will only end poorly for us poors.

Of course, some of those things are already there in non-USA countries. The US just needs to join the rest of the civilized world.

How can that be? The United States is the only civilized country in the world. Everywhere else is a dirty socialist hellhole. /s

Fully remote is the way of the future, in tech anyway. Use the money you saved on not renting office space to fly teams to the same area for a week or so a few times a year, there’s definite value in meeting, working together in person and going out for a beer afterwards

But make it optional and don't penalize folks for not showing up. The last thing I want to do is meet up with my coworkers and go for drinks especially given the fact that I do not drink alcohol nor enjoy social outings in general.

This won't do what you want. We'd still have unlimited money in politics, we'd still have hyper powerful lobbyist influence, and we'd have far more ignorant Congress folks for both to corrupt. Term limits are a non-starter until we get the other issues squared away and Democrats in the House passed massive election bills last session. Unfortunately, the Senate is broken by Mitch so that's fun.

This IS Biden. He's always been a pretty bad human person. The only silver lining is that he's been better than most recently. He's a center-right politician just like most Democrats.

Whoa boy no. We don't need those chucklefucks building a bunch nuclear anything and then not maintaining them. They let the issues with winter weather happen with warning and historical periodical events being known. They need to hook up to the national grid and have as little generation in their state as possible.

I'm not a liberal, honeybunch. Nor am I the person you were talking to so I don't really care to engage with your comment any more than to correct your word usage. You should probably relax a little.
