You are ignoring the fact that political parties and donors pick our leaders, primaries are just a formality. There is documented evidence that the DNC actively worked against Bernie in both 2016 and 2020. So what is popular actually doesn’t matter.
Sorry, I stopped playing factorio on my work Linux computer. I will play next month to get us back up.
I personally don’t believe that home schooling should be illegal. It’s not my jam, but don’t want it to be illegal…but holy shit that response escalated quickly. Libertarians are triggered idiots.
But when hiring for a job, you don’t only have two choices you have an entire pool of candidates which you can vett.
This is like your recruiter telling you that they narrowed down all the candidates for you, you have no say in that process and you can pick between the two worst candidates.
You need to look up what words mean.
We are cooked. Completely cooked. American democracy is over and it’s time to prepare for a harsh right wing fascist regime.
…but vote for Biden.
It was too late 12 years ago, this is everything playing out. Everyone acted like the 2020 election was our fight to keep democracy, we had already lost it by then, the conservative plan just hadn’t been completed yet.
I am not saying you should go vote and vote for Biden. I am saying that, we can never, ever elect another Republican again, or we are fucked, I do not see the that happening. If we beat trump in 2024, we may not in 2028, or new trump, whoever the new right wing strong man is may win in 2032.
It’s already over, it’s been over. Our chance to stop this was long before anyone even realized it was a problem.
The problem didn’t start, nor does it end with trump, he is just a convenient strong man to put as the face of the movement
Honestly, you might be able just FOIA him and find some shit.
They be like: your options are a shit sandwich or getting shot in the head.
When all along your options are every other food too, they just removed them from the menu.
You still should pick the shit sandwich over the shot to the head, but you should as hell be mad at both the one who would pull the trigger and the ones who left you with a shit sandwich as the viable alternative.
Eat the sandwich, remove the trigger man then go after the restaurant owners.
They absolutely are. My point was, and I apologize if it didn’t come through, republicans are bad in every way Democrats are and beyond. But the Democrats aren’t good.
They aren’t the same. They are bad in different ways. One side are corporate shills who are looking to depress the power of workers the other wants to kill blacks, lgbtqa+, Latinos and turn women into sex slave baby machines.
One is clearly worse and we should vote against them, but don’t tell me the Democrats aren’t bad.
But then the argument would be “we lost this house seat because of the 3rd party”
Shut the fuck up.
I am voting for Biden and everyone else who doesn’t want fascism should too, but I am so fucking beaten down by the Democrats hand picking terrible candidates, and our court system is already so destroyed it may not matter if Biden even wins.
Over the last two decades we have reduced the amount of time spent to get many of the items we need. Since we can now order online from our homes we don’t have to go out and get them, this frees up a reasonable chunk of time.
Also, over the last 50 or so years we have lost many 3rd places. A 3rd place is where you would spend your time that is not work or home. A bar, community center, an arcade…ect. those were a common place to spend time socializing.
Finally, items like reading and watching TV filled a lot of time. From reading the newspaper to getting the local news. Channel surfing was a big thing for a while. You would cycle through channels until you found something you wanted to watch, you could cycle channels for a while before finding something, so that took up a large chunk of time.
When is this game going to be out of early access?
