benefits the rich & the "social mobility" is a downwards spiral into
fewer opportunities and more difficult living circumstance for those
who live in poorer areas or whose family is not well off...

so you the reader what your story on your side ?
Part of that sounds like here. Our most recent president did not take criticism well and would lash out, while the current administration
blames all criticism on extreme right wingers, and it is all our fault
for listening to said extremists -- we should just accept that everything is more wonderful than it has ever been.
As for the wars, they are very happy to fund them.
I am in the US if you were not sure.

Sounds like the same things that "progressives" in the US don't seem to understand, either.

It's not necessarily controversial, it's politics that's banned. It never ends well, results in rehashed arguments that neither side is going to be swayed by and either riles people up or is just tiresome.
There are plenty of other outlets for peoples political ideologies and this net focus more on what brings people together rather than drives them apart.

whaddaya think of banana bread with nuts in it? raisins? chocolate?
YUCK! :)
Ketchup on macaroni & cheese with a load of black pepper is perfect. If you're using the boxed stuff (Kraft Mac & Cheese or "KD" in Canada) it's practically mandatory to eat with ketchup.
Or.... Ready for this. Ground Beef and mac & cheese. :)

John Smith said to the geek Sam Uzi <=-

All the neat shit that people claim for the latest hottest Intel OSs

pretty much standard in the Motorola and Risc worlds.
I had a caller who would rant endlessly about OS/2. He felt that since he'd never touched it or seen it that he was in an ideal position to
take such a stance.

I haven't tried that, but it sounds good. Sometimes I liked to mix in canned tuna with mac & cheese.

i am in a Party. the party of the US working class https://partyofcommunistsusa.net or
https://partyofcommunistsusa.org
this is the same site just different domains
basically right to housing/job & vacation/education/health
care/etc. food is something you gotta contribute for so nobody
live off of other in explotative ways
there will be accommodations for those who are disabled (like me)
and there will be jobs that suit them and not to taxing
under capitalism there is severe exploitation
under socialism exploitation is non existant
exploitation is where someone who dose not contribute to society
live off the labor of others. aka the capitalist. they live off
the labor because they own the factories etc. aka the means of
production

Perhaps you should move to a communist country like Russia, and perhaps you'll be happier there because you won't be "exploited" any more. LOL
