    *can name all the new my little ponies but can't name the governor of wisconsin*

    I'm surprised there hasn't been a thread about what happened last night. But, I haven't really been checking the PA forums much lately.

    yeah, the classy move last night to push through the bill.... that sure was a classy move. I enjoyed when Walker blamed the democrats for not doing their duty and debating the bill by fleeing the state, because the bill wouldn't have passed if the democrat minority had been present (see how the vote that passed the house)

    I wanted to make a thread about the Wisconsin vote but after the last one got locked I was afraid people would call it a megathread and I wasn't sure what the mod response would be.

    I am extremely pissed off about it as well. And I don't really think I'm coherent enough to make a good thread even when I'm not overly emotional.

    Do you know what sucks about being young or maybe it has nothing to do with being young, I'm just stupid and gullible

    But whenever I hear stuff spoken with authority, I believe it. Like I'll watch a movie like Zeitgeist and because I don't know anything else and this is new information and it is presented in an authoritative manner I just go "Look at all the things I'm learning!!!" and I don't know how to fact check it and when I stop to think

    I don't know if anything I know is correct!

    that is true, things like this are very difficult

    and I know it can be hard to sort out what you want to place your faith in

    but it is vitally imperative that you don't become so overwhelmed with the task of deciding, yourself, what to believe in that you rely on other people to tell you what is worth listening to

    this includes officious-sounding posters on forums.penny-arcade.com

    it's pretty much you being stupid

    but the bonus is, you notice it and now is the part of your life where you start fact checking things and realize that basically nothing is completely true if it is told to you in an easy to understand fashion

    I dont See how it was blatantly illegal? It is horrible and underhanded and a dick move, but the rules requiring a quorum are only those which spend money. So they just made a new small bill only concerned with the worker's rights but doesn't spend money. That isn't illegal, it's just sneaky politics.

    ofc worth keeping in mind that the things you "know are just right" are probably the things most deserving of clear-headed analysis
