University of Wisconsin-Madison started an encampment today. Pretty damn good turnout of supporters protecting them as they set up in the morning. Never more than 3 cops anywhere even in sight of the protesters, and usually fewer than that (down to 0). As evening fell cops started amassing in numbers a few blocks away at a convention center and the school newspaper live reporting kept talking about how they were gearing up with full riot accoutrements to break up the camps but even as the non-campers left to go to bed there wasn't a pig in sight. Only people I know of who had any contact with police at all were counterprotesters actually. And all this after the Chancellor sent a mass email to all 50,000 fucking students saying "no camping we will make arrests." Either they're waiting till the dead of night when everyone's literally asleep or they're giving them a day or something.

You may be aware of this already but just to be clear this will show up as a spoiled ballot. Write-ins have to be registered in order to count and show up in results. Spoiling a ballot is a legitimate form of electoral protest but if you want to send a more specific message you might consider researching what communist parties you can support penguin-love

I do vote for the demon rats every cycle but I'd never shame anyone for not having the stomach. I'm trolleyproblembrained.

Just curious: not that it matters, they're all ghouls, but what makes you put JFK so high, above Carter? JFK presided over the early stages of the Vietnam War and almost ended the world in the Cuban Missile Crisis. Also Bay of Pigs and other examples. He was one of the most rabid anti-communists in the whole Cold War.

That's from the Book of Ecclesiastes, which is one of the Ketuvim, or "writings" in the Jewish Bible/Tanakh. The Jewish Bible is identical to the Christian Old Testament.

If you said this without a hint of irony in r/worldnews you would get upvotes

I genuinely just cannot even imagine a scenario in which this ends anywhere near status quo ante bellum. I don't know how that would even come to pass. I think the extent to which Al-Aqsa Flood has changed the situation in the Levant won't be fully appreciated for years. Crazy to witness.

This is just what it's going to be, isn't? The whole strip just starved out like the Nazis tried in Leningrad.
