The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Talk about being mugged by liberalism!

Here's what she had to say a couple of years ago:
X (Twitter): Nickarama on X: "https://t.co/HJLLViFYUH" / X

Note the Clappy emojis around "DISMANTLE the Minneapolis Police Department". libs use those when they think they're making a point. Not that any liberals anywhere actually wanted police defunded or dismantled, oh, no. They all deny that today.

Now in Minneapolis it's open season on the citizens. Helpfully, this woman is also on board with disarming regular folks...or at least she was.

It's the great American liberal dichotomy: Be soft on criminals, support "Restorative justice" and other BS woke policies, defund and demoralize police, then turn around and disarm law abiding citizens. No sane person could square that intellectual circle but they keep at it, day after day.

I'll disagree with you a little bit...Giving liberals liberalism and assuming they'll change their minds doesn't always work. Seattle area voters have experienced a near doubling of murders, skyrocketing property crime, drugs all over the place and STILL will keep voting in the same people that ruined one of America's jewels. Their religious fervor for The Church of Progressivism leads them to keep voting for the same things over and over again.
