    Because there was a black millionaire in the early 1900s, it was easier to be poor and black before/during the civil rights movement than it is in modern day?

    I dont feel like we are having a coherent converation and these replies are purely reactive?

    So, we have been progessing over time, until recently, correct?

    Now lets bring being poor as a different demographic than white male in history as well.

    But would you consider that poor then? Maybe money was easier to obtain, but starvation/malnutrition rates have constantly been on a steady decline until the last few years. Not often you see people using a burlap sack to cloth their families, child labor, things like that. And we do have a lot of social programs like SNAP that didnt exist pre-1970s.1980s had the Homeless act. The world has changed drastically in the last 50-100 years.

    But I guess you could make solid arguments that the economy is generally harder now, so its worse for the majority, incuding the poor.

    Fuck billionaires and all, but I think two things are wrong with this.

    First, comparing hollywood to real life. They were making super yachts in the 1800s. El Mahrousa was built in 1865 and still in the top 10 in size.

    But those megayachts sre super unnecessary and terrible for enviroment.

    Secondly, times just generally changed. Poor people shifted a lot too. 1970s poor was a lot more poor than modern poor generally.

    But we should still fix the system that fucks over thr majority.

    I'm trying hard to find a fact that its getting worse, but seems like the last research done on the temporary/permanently swapped babies was 1998, and the handling of babies has improved greatly since then.

    Have you read something that makes it sound worse?

    Also, there are mechanisms in place(assuming this is an American post). I know because I'm taking advantage of them.

    I'm poor, at a respected university, and about graduate with a Bachelors. Might have spent 3k overall on school. Pell Grant was amazing.

    Aint a perfect system, but still works a lot of the time

    I mean, check all the numbers around the country. Obviously numbers are going to increase closer to election season, especially another very controversial one.

    Let's just hope Swift isnt the big moving force, since the candidates she endorsed in Tenessee in 2018 lost while she was getting the same type of news stories

    I was always pretty skeptical about the impact Taylor Swift had on the 2018 election. There were a few other factors from 2016-2020 that definitely increased political involvement and compare 2014 to 2018 Senate voting numbers in any state. They all dramatically increased.

    Also, Bredesen(the person Taylor endorsed) ended up losing.

    Its not a conspiracy... You are obviously not involved in the actual ML/AI, but another sector. You aren't speaking in any technical explaination.

    Yeah, but thats comparing a controversial Supreme Court issue that's been a hot topic for decades, to a sticks representative elected by 3000 votes filing some random shit that wont gain any traction.

    You can see these dumb ass proposals filed all over in the real rural areas. Hell, you can see them also done higher populace areas for dumb political maneuvers. They know they will fail, but they can say they tried.

    This is just a random proposal. It won't even make it to a point that it needs to go to a court. He's just some dude from a small district that has nothing to do.

    I get that American politics are weird AF right now, but shit like this is just posted to get a reaction. When ultimately it might sit on a desk for a week before it ends up in the trash.

    he bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.

    Deevers, a Baptist pastor who was elected last year to represent a rural district that includes the tiny cities of Comanche (population under 1,400) and Elgin (about 3,700),

    So some backwater representative is proposing something that will never go anywhere. I bet stupid bills like this are proposed weekly.

    I dont think that's the full story?

    and in Houston, they'd been doing so outside Central Library downtown for roughly two decades. In 2012, the city passed a law against giving free meals to people in need without permission, but Mayor Annise Parker's administration gave permission to Food Not Bombs. That position was reversed by former Mayor Sylvester Turner.
