Voting is the least important part of the political process. America is not a democracy, voting merely serves to legitimize the state with an illusion of choice.

They’re all dressed as politicians.

Deleting Facebook wasn’t even edgy 15 years ago when I did it, lol~

XP was acceptable and 7 was decent, but just seeing the previews of 8 was the last straw for me.

Furries fix the healthcare system challenge.

Did they ever fire that cop?

It’s a reference to an anecdote that Harris apparently uses frequently.

That’s all I know, never cared enough to learn a politicians’ lore.

Ah, “Explaining”. There’s your problem.

Lets have a checklist with supporting documentation, please~

As it should be.

Jeeze, look at all the salty Bidenists giving you pissy downvotes now that their favorite big wet boy is planning for retirement.

I’ve been telling people that the Dems would have to drop the incumbent to win 2024 since 2016 when the DNC rigged their own primary, but no matter how I try to explain it I immediately get accused of being a Republican. I feel like Cassandra, cursed to utter true prophecies but never be believed.

No matter how reasonably I phrase the argument, I haven’t been able to point out that the Dems would have better chances if Biden dropped out without getting accused of supporting Trump all the way up to the day after Biden dropped out.

Food Not Bombs knows that isn’t new, sadly.

Unlikely, Hydrogen storage isn’t a solvable problem.

It shouldn’t be. Youtube could have been a public good but instead it’s for-profit.

Again

You’re so close~

Voting is a placebo, but every election is stolen before it’s even held. Party members decide who gets to run in the primaries and draw the congressional districts to ensure no third parties could ever hope to win. Actual competition between the parties is limited to battleground states, electors elsewhere have no influence on the outcome.

So, you’re right, but not in the way you think. The political establishment pushes an illusion of choice to keep the population from exercising its power.

I have to go back over and stitch in the edges on all my iron-on patches, might have to look into that if they’ll do a better job.

In the tech industry, when a system doesn’t work and can’t be fixed we throw it out and start over.

It really isn’t a different debate when you’re talking about putting them on the blockchain, and all that other engineering has already been done by other distributed social networks.

Trust, consensus, and access control are session-layer issues that don’t need to be solved by a transport-layer protocol. Social networks deserve to be able to forget things.
