It's so weird to me that people spend their time trolling strangers on a random corner of the internet. Like, do you really have nothing going on in life? Do you enjoy just being kinda annoying? I tell myself they are all ten year olds cause otherwise it is just too depressing to think about
No I voted for her. But if you're telling people to vote for genocide you're probably the problem, not them. If both candidates are saying they're gonna kill your family you're probably not going to take a day off work to vote for one of them. Maybe don't put voters in that position if you want to win elections.
I just can't imagine looking a Palestinian American in the eyes and telling them it's their fault we have trump. That they should have voted for someone that was actively endangering /killing their families. It's wild to me that we're still blaming the victims rather than the person who supported a genocide. Still supports a genocide. Idk dude, I voted for her but I can totally empathize with certain people who were just not able to do it. I don't blame them. If you're gonna have a line 'genocide literally against my family' is a pretty fucking reasonable one. No, this is on Democrats, full stop.
That's actually an interesting take. Especially since funding is what makes people drop out more than votes. Look at Bernie going deep in each of his runs because he had the cash. I could see a world where an AOC (who has more money than anyone) simply 'hangs around' if theres a crowded center, building her ground game in later states that actually have Democrats in them.
Not skate parks, solar/BESS facilities. They have all the electrical infrastructure already built, the transformers don't care which way the electron moves through them. Fill the buildings with sodium batteries (to avoid fire suppression requirements) pile solar panels on the rooftops and surrounding areas. Anyone that has money should be buying these up on the cheap during the crash, skip the entire interconnection queue
Yes but there still are externalized costs. We burned so much fossil fuel that the climate changed and now we are burning more to keep things cool in the warming climate. So they aren't impacting the grid per se in this specific instance but they are still snowballing the problem. Which would be more understandable if they provided some real value to society. I'd also be curious about how often data centers are actually impacted by RAS load shedding schemes.
I think the idea is that the doctors are annoyed that they're being called upon for minor colds and are 'overnoting' to avoid having to write another and also as a bit of an f you to the employer.
Because it literally was. It was a version of Romneycare, that's part of why they couldn't repeal and replace, there's nothing they could replace it with cause it was their plan.
Shame is good. Shame is one of the few means we have of sending a message that their actions are unacceptable. They don't represent you or me, they represent their donors. And before you get on your high horse - yes I vote for these corrupt assholes, but I don't understand why we would be content with this. I don't understand why you're defending them. It's like Stockholm syndrome or something. Maybe if they actually stood for something they'd have more than a paltry majority. They can't even stand against genocide, like, for fucks sake that's the bare minimum. I think that's what's been so eye opening for so many recently.
Other countries aren't like this. Our country wasn't always like this. Things can be different. The system has been completely consumed by the interests of the wealthy and wealth inequality is higher than it's ever been.
Mandami talks about FDR style governing. The last time a Democrat tried that he got elected 4 times and ended up dying in office. Don't tell me thats unelectable.
Politics is about coalitions. These are people that are saying they are going to work together to enact specific changes they've outlined
Yes people should do that but they don't. So we adapt to the world we have rather than let it burn waiting on people to change.
The idea that persons A opinion of person B has no relevancy to my potential opinion of person B goes against a million years of evolution.
3a. Experts exist. If I have a specialty and recommend someone in my field that has more value than someone else who isn't in that field. I know enough about this person and his expertise to take his opinion into account when forming my own.
Is that really more annoying than all the repair work and climate guilt that comes with an ICE vehicle? Is that 5 minutes more valuable than all the time you spend working to make money to spend on gas and repairs?
Yeah randomness has been used effectively in the past but typically not that broad. Adding some chance to the process can be a good thing though as it limits the impact of corruption.
Well yeah, last time Americans elected a socialist they kept electing him til he died. Can't have that happen again. They aren't going with safe they are going with what they are financially incentivised to do. Look at the funding for democratic candidates, that's their constituency. You're projecting your own morals on them, they don't actually care about what's good for the country
What data supports this? What exit pills show that people were concerned about voting for a woman at rates that matter? Cause there's tons of data showing it was other reasons. Democrats need to get out the base, exciting candidates is how you do that

Fun fact, if there weren't cars we wouldn't even need traffic lights.

A. "we grew a carrot"
B. "Okay but why stop there? Let's build a whole garden so everyone can eat!"
A. "Oh so you want the person we gave a carrot to to starve huh asshole?"
Wtf are you on about?

Except voters in Texas. Unless you're arguing they are pro jackass which isn't an unreasonable take at this point.
I don't think anyone here is claiming no nonsense
I suspect there is a hole in the base of the handle that they are hanging from but hard to tell.
Yeah have we considered that maybe the cars are the dangerous part of the equation?

How does this work with produce? It all needs to be weighed right?
