Eating uninspected food is going to crush supermarkets when food poisoning and E. coli start wiping out brands.

Lawsuits for selling tainted food.

This will kill people. This will not save money or end waste or stop fraud.

Republicans are sadistic bastards.

“To understand Mothership’s central role, one must understand its origins. The firm was founded in 2014 by senior alumni of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC): its former digital director, Greg Berlin, and deputy digital director, Charles Starnes. During their tenure at the DCCC, they helped pioneer the fundraising model that now dominates Democratic inboxes—a high-volume strategy that relies on emotionally charged, often hyperbolic appeals to compel immediate donations. This model, sometimes called “churn and burn,” prioritizes short-term revenue over long-term donor relationships. After leaving the DCCC, Berlin and Starnes effectively privatized this playbook, building a business around the party’s most aggressive tactics and turning an internal strategy into a fundraising powerhouse for the Democratic Party—or so it might seem on the surface. They became the operational heart of a sprawling nexus of interconnected political action committees, many of which they helped create and which now serve as their primary clients. These are not a diverse collection of grassroots groups; they are a tightly integrated network that functions primarily to funnel funds to Mothership. Their names are likely familiar from the very texts and emails that flood inboxes: Progressive Turnout Project, Stop Republicans, and End Citizens United to name a few.”

The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine

These craven scumbags kept 98 cents of every dollar we donated. They gave 2 cents to whoever we thought we were supporting.

And because that’s not bad enough, these consultant dirtbags do not prioritize winning elections; they prioritize fundraising just like this. They don’t care if their clients lose.

They are a huge part of the problem with Democrats and the Democratic Party, and they have got to go. It’s just fucking inexcusable that this has been allowed to go on for so long.

Focusing on how "the Jedi made mistakes/were flawed" is not actually as nuanced of a take as you think it is since it WILDLY misses the point of the destruction of the Jedi.

It doesn't matter if the Jedi made mistakes or were flawed. It truly truly doesn't, it's SO beyond the point of this narrative it's not even funny.

The POINT of the death of the Jedi is that you can do everything right and still lose. And even more so, you can be the most moral, compassionate, selfless person in the galaxy and it won't matter if everyone around you has decided to be selfless and greedy.

The point of the death of the Jedi is that they seem like this group that should be nearly impossible to take down, they're full of powerful people who can do powerful things, they've got laser swords and magic powers and can jump really far and run really fast, and they use all of this to do nothing but HELP PEOPLE all the time, and in the end they all die because no one around them wanted to do the same. Fascism is a group effort, it's not the work of one dude or even two. Yes, Palpatine comes in and abuses the system to do bad things, but his entire plan relies on THOUSANDS of people choosing to do bad things with him. Anakin, yes, but also the corporate alliance and Dooku and Jango and Grievous and Maul and the Geonosians and the Kaminoans and Tarkin and so so so many Senators (enough that a Delegation of 2000 feels like their efforts are likely a shot in the dark). The Jedi are doing EVERYTHING RIGHT, they're heroes who give their lives to save others, but they're surrounded by people who wouldn't do the same, and that's what kills them.

THAT'S the point. The Jedi being flawed completely bypasses that point entirely. Focusing on "mistakes" the Jedi might have made, or flaws they might have, means that you're now completely ignoring the entire message about how fighting BACK against fascism and evil is ALSO a group effort. The Jedi cannot do it alone, and if enough people are not standing up to darkness with them, IT IS GUARANTEED TO WIN. Even the most powerful, most selfless people in the world can't stand up against a galaxy full of people prepared to submit to their own fears.

Too many people gave in to darkness and by doing so, they lost the one thing truly standing between them and tyranny. The loss of the Jedi is SYMBOLIC of the consequences of giving into your fears. That's why the triumph OVER evil is represented by the RETURN OF THE JEDI. There is no real nuance to "but they were flawed, but the made mistakes, but they could have done this, but they could have NOT done that." Truly, there is not. Focusing on the Jedi's "flaws" or "mistakes" just means you're missing the actual point of the story and the Jedi's role in it.

“A federal appeals court on Friday night denied the Trump administration’s attempt to pause a restraining order that bars immigration authorities from conducting certain types of enforcement actions in Los Angeles and surrounding counties, leaving the order in place while litigation continues. The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals declined to issue a stay in a case challenging Department of Homeland Security practices that, according to plaintiffs, led to the unlawful detention and disappearance of Southern California residents without warrants or legal justification.”
