Cities are trash now, this will only make them worse because corporations are stupid. The new process will look like this:

1. Buy plot of land.
2. Build business without adequate parking.
3. People park on the street, which will remain mysteriously legal but exacerbate the same disasters street parking already causes.
4. Even with that, parking is insufficient. Business goes belly-up, causing urban blight.
5. New investor goes to Step 1.

Speaking as someone who knows the definition (or more accurately, that there isn’t one), it is not a first amendment issue.

They do, in fact, have a legal leg to stand in. As shareholders, they can sue their board of directors for mismanagement.

There is roughly $2.6 trillion dollars in untaxed earnings being held overseas in order to avoid taxation.

This is false. There are zero dollars in untaxed earnings.

The Netherlands don’t have freedom of speech, though, so that’s immaterial. The closest thing they have is Article 7, Subarticle 3 in general, which only means they can’t legally be compelled to seek prior approval for speech.

Well, of course not. What you’ll do is come to America illegally because the legal method won’t work.

It’s just like how the GOP tries as hard as it can to maximize abortions by limiting access to contraceptives: this is an attempt to maximize illegal immigration by making legal immigration less and less of a real prospect. The GOP would much rather any immigrant be illegal than legal - e.g. because they can then pretend this problem is caused by Biden and use it in their rhetoric.

No, they said what they were referring to: AFP saying things without confirmation.

I don’t think you’re gonna have an easy time finding people on Lemmy to defend Russia’s actions in this war.

I think you mean do know nothing.

I’m fairly certain only Congress can resechedule Marijuana - it was explicitly listed as Schedule 1 in the Controlled Substances Act. A President could try ordering the DEA to reschedule it, but it would end up before SCOTUS.

No, it’s Newnew.

Or… well, on the ship itself it’s spelled New New, which is a lot saner and funnier than Newnew.

It’s currently the Ameican right, not the American left, defending Israel. And only Americans think “libtard” is a word.

What, even the ones predating locomotives?

I don’t understand. Since when can the Feds just waltz onto private property and destroy fencing on it?

The 4th Amendment:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

I don’t think larceny is a capital offense in most countries, but certainly not the USA.

Equating Israelis with Jews is, itself, anti-Semitic.

What a miscarriage of justice. If they’re remotely right that this guy was a deeply misogynist incel lashing out, that precludes this being a genuine act of terrorism as defined under Canadian law. He’d have to have committed the murder “in whole or in part for a political, religious or ideological purpose, objective or cause”. Genuinely hating women and lashing out accordingly is the polar opposite of doing it for a cause. The prosecution is essebtially alleging that the defendant did this for personal reasons.

Terrible ruling.

So it’s conservative to refuse to ban tobacco? Do you agree with the general consensus that it’s also conservative to ban marijuana? How do you square those two attitudes, if so?

Doing that doesn’t teach children to share - it teaches them to avoid getting caught because both the abuser and the victim will be punished, so even as the victim it’s best to keep your abuse private.
