Yes I can see why you'd think they haven't talked about policies at all, not paying any attention at all to anything must make it seem like that.

I don't really understand why you'd do this, either you want a retro experience or not? There's millions of ways to get a better visual experience so why would you modify classic hardware?

Raise the voting age to thirty?

You love capitalism. We get it.

I want to be at the meeting a year from now where they realize only two people have ever signed up 'Yay we fixed porn!'

Buy who am I kidding they brought VPN shares before this was introduced

You're a very small fraction of the audience, it shouldn't be surprising they focus on the majority who prefer online play as it adds a social element into an otherwise predictable and static environment.

Politics doest work by picking your heros though, you have to pick people others outside your narrow group will support.

AOC has a lot of work to do before she's getting a decent share of the national vote

China is doing so many big things with their power infrastructure recently, they're obviously very keen to get away from oil

From a different article;

She said the group appeared to be of Middle Eastern descent, possibly from Syria, and estimated they were aged 18-25.

It's not comfortable but stories like this are exactly why the right is gaining popularity and if the left continues to pretend not to see them and act like this then of course people aren't going to take us seriously.

We need articles to give us facts and talking heads to explain what's being done and what the big plan is to make sure that letting in large quantities of immigrants in doesn't have negative consequences for regular people.

If we act like we've never heard of such things while they are listing distressing examples then the average undecided is going to be swayed their way. As an idealist I wish the world had no boarders, we don't live in that world and i cant force the.world into it by ignoring reality. all the European countries going right have the same big reason for the shift, we can't go on pretending that if we ignore people's concerns and real problems that everyone else will ignore them too.

Why is this fascism? Seems like good old fashioned religious intolerance and violence.

Though this article skipped some details on that aspect.

Alex was just yelling about headlines he doesn't understand, groundwater runoff affecting water tables is serious news covered a lot. It's not fun so doesn't make it to memes.

Alex supports Trump who cut a third of the EPA budget, Biden strengthened the EPA significantly. Things that actually matter get reported on but receive very few clicks, at some point we have to accept we're responsible and make an effort to change.

He's doing really well in the job and at the debate his answers were good, if you only pay attention to the least important thing then yeah he was low energy.

It's like picking race car drivers, one is a great driver but the other has a racing stripe...

You could get involved in campaigning for a Democrat running in a local senate race, actually get involved in politics and work for change

Maybe instead of using your energy to attack Biden you use it to support your local democrat in their senate run

Unless you actually just want Trump

Well get your news about it from scientific papers and experts instead of tabloids and advertisements.

Oh that does sound really nice actually, I'll book a trip. I really like the sound of the moon changing size, would add a lot of variety to the sky. I would ask what time of year you suggest visiting but since they're over 500 earth years I don't really have the option.

So if someone made a photoshop of him in blackface with racist iconography and he didn't like it you'd post it everywhere? 'Look at putin depicted as a disgusting stupid black guy! It sure is humiliating for him to be associated with terrible things like black people!'

And yes I know it's tempting to write off things like this with 'it's not complex bro, I just do what I feel like and it's OK because in my heart it's a progressive act of kindness!' but life isn't so simple, actions have unintended and unconsidered implications.

There's so many reasons to laugh at putin, even if he was gay it wouldn't be one of them. Assume the story that this upsets putin didn't exist as a meme (which btw is likely nonsense anyway) what would be the point of this image? What would it convey? Just homophobia.

Also people getting used to group chat and online games with friends, being able to socialize more effectively made activities like the mall pointless.

That's why when you go to places where people used to hang out to socialise most people are just on their phones, the phone is better.

You've got to stop kidding yourself, most of america does not.share your/our political opinions, it feels like it when inside a bubble like on here but the wider reality of people who actually vote they're not going to win.
