It makes you think that the US is basically a one party state with two different sections

Are you sure that isn't a mariachi from the 1995 movie Desperado?
So much for small government staying out of people's business
You can't base their company value on the stock market ... you base it on how much power and influence they have over government.
And judging by the amount of stupidly arranged love affair they are having with the government .... they should be very highly valued.

Don't waste your energy on people who won't listen.
Look for people, places and groups that support your own beliefs.
If you can't find those people at work, then just be nice to them but not too close. Them in your free time, use your energy to support those people and groups you believe in.
Don't waste your time on those who won't listen.
Simultaneously labelling their enemies as powerfully oppressive forces that must be defeated .... and weak groups that can be easily overpowered by their superior strength

I just finished watching the finale of season four of DS9. I'm really enjoying the show as I've wanted to watch it for years.
A bit of a spoiler for those who haven't seen the show but I thought those of you who already know and have seen it all might appreciate this.
The scene where Odo is brought back by the Changelings and is 'reborn' into someone new is a direct copy of the famous painting by Michaelangelo's 'The Creation of Adam'. It's been noted before by other viewers, I had to check for myself if other people noticed and it has been. I was just surprised myself when I saw the connection after I watched the show.
Of course, they had to have him lifting his other leg so as not show in anatomical detail his Odometer.
Just a friendly reminder of the November 11 Remembrance Day ceremonies.
Here's a photo of James Doohan, 22nd Field Battery, 13th Field Regiment RCA of the Canadian 3rd Infantry Division. He was part of the famous D-Day landings of June 1944.

Or after a lifetime of being screwed over again and again, at one point you just don't give a shit and keep working, keep organizing, keep fighting, keep resisting even if you know at the end of the day, you're going to lose anyway. You keep fighting in the hopes that the next person behind you has a better chance of saving themselves.
I'm Indigenous Canadian and I never knew it but I understand it more and more as I grow older. I don't fight or resist in order to win for myself ... I fight and resist to make the fight easier for the next person behind me. I never knew it and I never saw it before but now I understand ... the people I saw fight and lose all my life, were doing it so that my fight would not be as hard.
Always resist ... no matter the outcome.
