It is an excellent hobby to have!
The military drones mentioned in the video and the commercial drones for hobby are completely different, though.
One is commercially available and used for hobbies, and some in a professional manner, while the drones in the video are military drones used for battle.
But... question probably are flying drones a big deal now and have laws been enacted against them?
The laws are really strict if you would like to be an official certificated remote pilot in the US.^[[1] https://www.faa.gov/uas/commercial_operators/become_a_drone_pilot]
Flying Near Airports^[[2] https://www.faa.gov/uas/getting_started/where_can_i_fly/airspace_restrictions/flying_near_airports]
Drone operators should avoid flying near airports because it is difficult for manned aircraft to see and avoid a drone while flying. Remember that drone operators must avoid manned aircraft and are responsible for any safety hazard their drone creates in an airport environment.
Airports in Uncontrolled Airspace
For flights near airports in uncontrolled airspace that remain under 400’ above the ground, prior authorization is not required. When flying in these areas, remote pilots and recreational flyers must be aware of and avoid traffic patterns and takeoff and landing areas. A drone must not interfere with operations at the airport must yield right-of-way to all other aircraft. Uncontrolled airspace and other flying restrictions can be found on our B4UFLY app.
“vaccines good, taxes good”
That is not left, those are the status quo talking points.
It seems our definition of these labels are not similar or close to similar.

Max Blumenthal Expertly Debunks RFK Jr.’s Israel-Palestine Propaganda

TIL even WIkipedia lists our current wars.
List of wars involving the United States^[[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_United_States#21st-century_wars]
The United States has been involved in 108 military conflicts. These include major conflicts like the American Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Mexican–American War, the American Civil War, the Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II and the Gulf War. It also includes US involvement in widespread periods of conflict like the Indian Wars, the Cold War (including the Korean War and the Vietnam War), and the War on Terror (including the Iraq War, the War in Afghanistan, and others).
Four military engagements encompassing three wars, all of which are interventions, currently involve the US: the Yemeni Civil War, the Somali Civil War, and the Syrian Civil War.
21st-century wars (2024):
- US intervention in Yemen (2002–present)^[[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drone_strikes_in_Yemen]
- Second US Intervention in the Somali Civil War (2007–present)^[[3] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_military_intervention_in_Somalia_(2007–present)]

Challenge your own bias and read or watch her positions on policy; that should alleviate your misunderstandings.
Peace.
Voting for the duopoly will not change the systematic problems our society faces.
Again, she describes herself as being independent left.
This would be to the left of the Democrats.
She is a self-described independent left, not just "left" or "left-leaning."

parroting right propaganda
I would double check your politics views and labels.
Briahna Joy Gray is left of Bernie Sanders, nice try smearing people left of you.
I could say the same thing about the duopoly: all the billions of dollars wasted on career politicians and lobbying while the working class continues to struggle more than ever under the systematic issues our society faces.
All this talk about Trump taking our "democracy away" while you criticize the very same system that enables a democratic republic (for third parties).
That does not seem very democratic or republican of you when any opposition to the duopoly is heavily encouraged, IMO.
Awesome, thanks for informing me and others!
Thanks for letting me know. All is well; have a joyful day either way!
Peace.
Thanks for letting me know!
Good to know that I am not in a self-constructed echo chamber by self-censoring myself from views.

You can remove the comment before you ban the person, leaving the comment up on the mod logs for others to see.
Do moderators do this with spammers/trolls? I do not think so, and I have not seen moderators do that.
The comments made by the other people were not spamming, they were disagreeing with you.
They were disagreeing with me, and that is okay. Just take a look at all the other posts; you will see some people do the same; they are not banned.
Copying and pasting the same message across multiple communities is spamming, even if I agree or disagree with them, so that will be banned in any community that bans spamming or comments that share the same characteristics.
It seems to be a reoccurring talking point from the owner-class, who like to show off how much they work, started with nothing, with little-to-no help, and became billionaires.

Make sure to read community rules when posting or interacting. I also went through something similar when I just started. That is why I am really lenient with bans, which are only for x days.
Rules:
Try to be as civil as you can be; No Spamming/Trolling; ban for x days if problems arise
I do not agree with your view, and that is okay; we may come to a compromise on other topics in the future.

>Watch as Pro-Palestine protesters and other activists caused chaos at the Watergate Hotel last night in Washington, DC, where PM Netanyahu is staying. Mealworms and maggots were left on banquet tables, and numerous crickets were released on multiple floors. Fire alarms were triggered by protesters for over 30 minutes, causing major disruption to many hotel guests, including PM Netanyahu. Protesters and activists stated that their actions were meant to ensure that there would be no rest for Netanyahu and Congress, accusing them of failing to achieve their military and political objectives. They added, "May their dreams be haunted by the death of our people and the decay of their society
