Damnit, that’s what I get for using voice to text.

I’m not going to find a source because it would require me to visit those sites. But yes, that is exactly what they think. They call it second migration theory or something like that and it goes a little bit like this: Native Americans came over on the Bering land bridge so when Europeans came over on the Mayflower etc. it wasn’t colonialism it was just more migration!

This theory of course completely ignores that the Bering land bridge may or may not have ever actually been uncovered and that if it was it was about 10,000 years ago while there is ample evidence that the Americas have been populated for well over 50,000 years.

It sounds kinda like Tuxedo also wants to be Debian’s Fedora.

Where I am the pandemic changed nothing about the acceptance of masking. Even during the pandemic I had people asking me to remove my mask.

Some people can’t not be in control.

I honestly didn’t think he was still alive.

I am also not an expert in this area, however AFAIK being capable of being class action doesn’t make it class action. The Sandy Hook families sued Alex Jones and the number of plaintiffs didn’t make that class action either. As well, in Oklahoma right now there are 100s of similar cases against State Farm regarding hail damage payouts and despite intervention from the state AG these have not become a class action. From the information we do have at least one household invited at least one other household to join a lawsuit and they declined, beyond that we don’t know that there are even other plaintiffs to begin with.

Joining a lawsuit like that wouldn’t automatically make it class action.

I haven’t had any issues this morning… is this current?

They’re worried the sound drove down the price of their home, but they didn’t join the lawsuit… I’m officially confused.

Doing something that lowers the value of somebody’s house is usually a pretty slam dunk way for that person to be able to sue you. The article doesn’t mention if they have some sort of weird attachment to the house, but otherwise why wouldn’t you just wanna take the money and move somewhere else in the same town or otherwise? Especially if it’s already been four fucking years.
