  • He’s getting down voted because most people in this thread are foaming at the mouth.

    I hate trump as much as the next guy. What this guy did, tho, is currently against the law. Should the law be changed? Should he have gone through a whistle blower process? Questions to be asked.

    But as of today, you can’t purposely get a job at the IRS to leak information that the IRS wasn’t ready/allowed to release. Full stop.

    The folks arguing here that he should be pardoned or who are enraged that he is even being charged are presenting childish arguments. There’s a theme on Lemmy that I’ve noticed. Tribalism is strong as fuck.









  • Calm down, Thanos.

    No but seriously, I know that for me, what gets me incredibly annoyed when this topic comes up, is the absolutists that rail on anyone wanting any children. Like, I get it man, you don’t want kids. But that doesn’t mean I’m wrong for wanting kids.

    These people get very high and mighty on their claim that those of us that want children are selfish for “bringing them into a dying planet”.

    You’re framing it in such a way to say “hey, maybe let’s slow down population growth”. They’re saying “we need to never have children again”.

    One of those scenarios leads to the end of human civilization. If that’s your goal, you have bigger psychological issues than you realize. (Not you; the general you)
