I'd be willing to bet it won't be either one.

Fair question, and at it's core I suppose nothing. As you know from past conversations I just prefer putting accountability on people when it comes to doing the right thing and creating social change. As I said, if function is possible without government intervention I prefer it be that way. Also, I think it's important to restrict government power during times when the government has a history(and no signs of changing) of protecting its' own interests and the interests of those who fund it over the majority.

Fair enough. I'm pretty naive to the subject, so I'm happy to have people point out flaws in my logic. It's something to think about.

dude it's so funny to me that everyone on the right seems to jump to complain about how wrong it is that richard spencer got punched, yet gavin mcinnes punches a guy in the face and it's all fun and games.

no really, it's funny, i swear. free speech is all good until it comes back and leads to you getting smacked, lul amirite?

Will Trump presidency impact Doomsday Clock?

Published on Jan 26, 2017
A panel of scientists and scholars will announce today whether we're any closer to the end of the world. The Doomsday Clock sits at three minutes to midnight. The 12 o'clock hour represents the destruction of human civilization. The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists magazine first set the clock 70 years ago, and it's been adjusted 21 times since. Kris Van Cleave reports.

Trump apparently going to de-fund NPR and some publicly funded arts programs. He's on a rampage.

When Winston Churchill was asked to cut arts funding to support the war effort, he replied: “Then what are we fighting for?”
Fake quote but I agree with the sentiment.

Why should the public be taxed to fund art? It's bonkers.
