fast cars loose anus posted:Yeah it has the potential to make everything else moot We only supplement with formula so don’t use much and I still have to have alerts set at like every single retailer in order for when they get stock in order to keep ahead. I lucked out and got the next two month’s worth from Costco last week but even that was only doable because I could front the cost for like 8 pounds of formula all in one go.

MSDOS KAPITAL posted:honestly if the baby formula thing doesn't get resolved pretty quick and still nothing happens then this is the most cucked country in human history and it's not even close. I mean I think we already knew that but that will leave zero room for doubt Agreed! I remember when France in the 1700s had a formula shortage, and the proletariat marched upon the French White House with their guillotines and the bougies said let them eat cake instead of formula or something…

They destroyed 100 military vehicles. Nope, Americans must be taught that polite peaceful protests are the only valid expression of grievances. They make fun of the French for being wimps, but the French will guillotine a king or throw napalm on a cop.

You basically need a shadow state already functioning and to win the support of soldiers/police for it to work. The symbolic instances of violence people typically think of as turning points are attractive to middle class radical discontents and might work as part of a patronage system involving them and the ruling class but they are usually alienating to the mostly conservative working class unless they are in uniquely extreme circumstances, and it's usually much more boring nonviolent organizing that actually changes things alongside changes in the economic base.

Flesh Forge posted:adding "baby starvation and infant mortality increase" to the list of accomplishments during democrat majority I like lols as much as the next guy but poo poo like "My baby is starving pls help" being answered with "Have you seen a doctor?" and the trans person in Maryland a few pages back being told to vote harder by actual party representatives when the dems hold like 80% of that state's legislature and the executive doesn't make me lol so much as make my blood boil. It's genuinely worrying to me how much rage it gives me and I don't even have a stake in either issue. I honestly don't know that I could stomach the amount of anger I would have if their callous disregard for human existence was to directly impact me. I suppose I'm lucky that dems just disregard me entirely due to geography rather than stand by able but unwilling to actually help me.

A Buttery Pastry posted:I mean, that might very well have been the case. Of course any defense in this vein, of an individual within a system, means further blame falls on the system itself and thus the defense of a royal becomes an indictment against royalty. Or in modern times, politicians or whatever. Which I doubt was the intention of whoever bothered writing an article presumably trying to rehabilitate her. Yeah that was the conclusion I came to as well. But yeah it def wasn't the intention of the article. IIRC it was taking a "Marie Antoinette was a victim of misogyny" angle

A country with a healthy administrative state could have probably caught this baby formula mess a lot earlier and mitigated a whole bunch of harm, but no the prevailing political ideology of last 40+ years in America has been "actually it's bad when the government does stuff, unless it involves killing people" so welp
