Food is not taxed in the US. At least in my state.

Especially considering the community already fractured with onehindrednintysix being formed

Your nation provides 90% of the electricity we consume

That is completely false. In 2023 the US generated 4257 TWh compared to Canada's 615 TWh. The US only had a net import of 19 TWh

We have both sugar free and full sugar. I want to say the sugar free is more popular but I don't pay that much attention.

I think it's important to point out as well that there is a mesiarble difference between between the permittivity of free space and air. But to your point the difference is quite small: e_r air is 1.0006 whereas e_r freespace is 1.

While temperature and pressure do have an effect on e_r air I don't know enough to say that net movement of the particles in one direction would have a measurable effect. ~~My instinct is no.~~

Looks like lukewarm_ozone proved me wrong. https://lemmy.today/comment/13053868

A quick Google search shows birdshot has an effective rang on the order of 40 - 50 yards. Now, you still have to be competant with a shotgun, but the public perception of shotguns is generally skewed. They have a much tighter spread and longer range than movies and games would have one believe.

Well, they've been together for at least 24 years so idk?

My next door neighbor is a stay at home dad what are you on about?

More give doctors the right to treat their patients

Mildly fitting though. "Ecological collapse is imminent; please buy more products."

Exactly. It's the apithetic and doomer non-voters that are the real issue in US elections. Voter turn out is usually abhorrently low.

People can have all the fights they want about third party votes for president and other high offices, but third parties have great potential to make local/regional change. Sometimes it feels like people forget there is more than just a president in this country.

Ignoring that genocide is beyond the scope of this meme, both parties are complicit in providing aid to Isreal, who is the party actively committing genocide against Palestinians. It's important to recognize the difference between not giving a shit and recognizing something can't immediately be done about a situation. Gaza is not on the ballot in the United States and won't be until more left leaning individuals take power in congress. This process starts at the local level, and years before an election is held.

But its good to know that the genocide of my people is less important than the genocide of others. The perspective that two genocides is just as bad as one is absurd. Again, being able to believe that the party of liberals and the party of white nationalists are both fascist parties indicates a level of privilege or insulation from living under a fascist regime.
