    Which specific regulations did he not put back which you’re concerned about? I couldn’t in good faith say “all of them” because there’s no head-to-head comparison, so I hedged with “quite a few”. But I’m sure you know them by heart, because I know you’re just so, so concerned about the issues. Fucking clown.

      So you have no idea if biden put these rules back in place but you’re confidently asserting it anyway and getting angry at me for being curious…

        Which one(s)? Go ahead. Tell me; this should be easy for you, because I know you actually care about this and aren’t just commenting for the rubles.

            This is so transparently projecting from the fact that you can’t answer by naming a single policy or regulation, which is pretty sad. Go ahead. The NYT listed 100 of them; it should be easy to find at least one. And you’re in a Solarpunk community to boot, so I’m sure you care enough about the environment that you keep up with this news, right? You’re not just concern trolling about an issue you don’t actually keep up with to get in a shallow “own” against the Biden administration and then scrambling to save face when it’s pointed out you don’t know shit about fuck, right?

                    "I have never really understood exactly what a ‘liberal’ is, since I have heard ‘liberals’ express every conceivable opinion on every conceivable subject. As far as I can tell, you have the extreme right, who are fascist racist capitalist dogs like Ronald Reagan, who come right out and let you know where they’re coming from. And on the opposite end, you have the left, who are supposed to be committed to justice, equality, and human rights. And somewhere between those two points is the liberal.

                    As far as I’m concerned, ‘liberal’ is the most meaningless word in the dictionary. History has shown me that as long as some white middle-class people can live high on the hog, take vacations to Europe, send their children to private schools, and reap the benefits of their white skin privilege, then they are ‘liberal’. But when times get hard and money gets tight, they pull off that liberal mask and you think you’re talking to Adolf Hitler. They feel sorry for the so-called underprivileged just as long as they can maintain their own privileges."
