meanwhile, in terms of breaches of professional and respectful decorum by individuals who hold positions of significant political importance at present, it's abhorrent and unacceptable to read Chair Harrington apparently flipped off Commissioner Nafisa Fai during a public meeting?

heck i respect Mitch all the more for hating cops. it often feels like all “decorum” actually means is ”maintaining the status quo“ so that the wealthy folks who control the state and their piggy guard dogs can hold onto power. i like it when decorum is challenged and disrupted tbh. more please!

There are many reasons the Space Marines and Clone Troopers are so popular. Not all should be tolerated. Not even all of the milquetoast ones.
