OB PUBLICAM UTILITATEM

ob publicam utilitatem (pronounced ob-puh-bli-kum yoo-til-uh-tay-tum) is a Latin phrase that means "for the public advantage." It refers to actions or decisions made with the intention of benefiting the general public.

  • A city government decides to build a new park in a neighborhood that lacks green spaces. This decision is made ob publicam utilitatem because it benefits the community as a whole.

@Dkk: Fair. My guess is (if the DNC is smart) dems change there messaging to be more appealing to moderates, they start winning and they hopefully that encourages republicans to move back to the center.
Dkk
18:47
Yeah, exactly.

@llama: This was the best explanation that I read for it: https://samharris.substack.com/p/the-reckoning

@GapingVariousTurkey: same bro. im not worried cause yolo, but i think an honest talk with each applicable school will allow them to give leeway
texaslawhopefully
18:48
But, yeah, I think many people were shocked
any UK law students?
18:49
@texaslawhopefully: when I have some time i will read, thanks fren. Regardless of whichever of the two [T or H] are in the WH, I truly believe expectations will be looked back on as over worried.

@thanatologist: Kentucky?

@llama: I don't know man, maybe I've been reading way too much news but I'm worried in a way I wasn't with Biden, or would've been with Harris
18:53
@texaslawhopefully: looking back, the Rs were freaking out saying Biden was going to end the country, and the Ds were freaking out during DJTs 1st term. Neither did exceptionally bad or good, IMHO. At the end of the day, the rest of the GOV (Judaical and Congress) really put a damper on grandiose executive plans. Finally, we all know Donnie is a talker: he anchors (ie tarrifs), he talks shit, he says he will do X and never does. news eats that shit up, but I think most will not ever come to pass

I really think it's a lot of political theater right now. I think a huge percentage of these EO's are just going to be shot down.

the news sells fear. that is their product (hence why u see COPD, heart meds, stress/ antidepressants adverts during primtime). We know trump has a big mouth, and when he opens it, he spews nonsense which gets funneled into ur ears- ratings skyrocket.
18:56
not COPD. my bad ^
dem messaging is lightyears behind MAGA messaging, part of this can be blamed on foreign governments boosting the MAGA party to destabilize the country, but the democrat old guard is so far behind MAGA strategy
18:57
@Dkk: exactly.
dems need to give way to modern leftists like AOC and bernie
18:58
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: AOC is my crushhhh
Dkk
18:59
It's amazing cus in 2008/2012 people were even wondering if the Republican party was still going to be a thing and then yeah, MAGA just took over.
but unfortunately the left purity tests all of its members to death, for the left their candidates have to be perfect, for the right their candidates are basically forgiven for anything. it makes it a hard sell for upcoming talent to attach to the left wing when they will cancel their politicians for any perceivable social slight
texaslawhopefully
18:59
Yeah, unfortunately that happened in part with Harris and the far-Left
19:00
@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: see with takes like that, it is no wonder how you are called Knowledgeable Wasp
ie a lot of the left didnt vote for harris because they thought biden was too soft on israel for the I/P situation. but now they have trump who will literally hand netanyahu bombs to genocide palestinians
texaslawhopefully

And even on that issue, though, I thought Biden was very moderate, whereas the far-Left just had unrealistic expectations of where he was going to end up
yeah absolutely, and our modern left doesn't appreciate that if they eventually want their policies, their best bet is incremental progress, not a perceived revolution

So if you are 19, Trump won his first election when you were like 11. What were you doing at 11?

This is just interesting for me to think about.
