You clearly don’t understand the meaning of first. And this is why progressives and the Green Party never make any headway. You think you’re working in a system that’s fair and will work if you just try hard enough. Except you only end up fighting the people most loosely aligned to yall and you end up letting the country move further and further to the right.

Your logic is flawed because we live in a two party system. Third parties in our current setup are only spoilers. We need to address the foundational issues FIRST and then we can get more than even 3 parties in. Otherwise you’re going to get republicans fixing the system so they never leave power and then we’re all fucked forever with no chance of improvement.

It’s like Christmas season. Soon the lame duck period will start before they even begin campaigning for their first term!

Because she only gets paid to spoil the presidential election, not disrupt local politics.

You should be asking why republicans are trying so hard to get them IN the elections.

Sorry but are you excusing a person who literally made up the racist shit for no reason just because her apology didn’t sound republican to you and other people blew her lie up further than she “claims” to have not wanted it to be?

That’s like sorry I set this building on fire, I was just trying to burn this one desk but didn’t mean for it to spread and kill a bunch of innocent people.

Maybe even gives Ukraine some of Russia too. And I’m not referring to crimea.

Are chickens allowed to register to vote? That might be your problem…

HIT? Hitler Is Toaster?

I guess you’re implying she…doesn’t?

Agreed. I did have grief about my ASD diagnosis for a short time but adhd I had none whatsoever. I think it has to do with how you perceive the stigma of the condition.

It’s kinda like George Lucas. Everyone was shocked when the prequels came out with how bad they were but if you look into the original trilogy he had equally crazy ideas, he was just kept in check by a team because he wasn’t such a success he couldn’t have ALL the reigns.

News outlets would NEVER normalize republican toxicity and bullshit by doing that. What are you saying? /s in case it’s needed…

Agreed. And he’s legitimately entertaining. Lance on the other hand….is a tool of the highest order and a pseudointellectual.

I love the entertainment factor of James but he and Lance both are held up as gods by coffee people when i think a lot of what they produce, especially their “scientific” experiments, are questionable at best.

In roasting we have a similar problem with Scott Rao who most professional roasters think is a fool.

Keep yelling at clouds banana. One day someone’s gonna stop ignoring you, I promise. Just don’t hold your breathe please, we all care for your health.

They are nerds who care about other things than their operating system. That’s like wondering why they also don’t build their own networks down there and self host everything. Those are particular hobbies that don’t interest the vast majority of people, nerd or otherwise.

Grief can be hard but wtf. The parents of the deceased didn’t suffer more than the person who survived. You can’t quantify suffering like that and that’s pretty shameful. I understand their worlds have been upended but that’s so petty. $1 less in settlement to acknowledge they had children who were murdered while this person has to deal with what is probably an enormous amount of ptsd among other things.

So who are these elites that are telling us that billionaires shouldn’t spend their money in any way they see fit? I’m not self important, I’ve just seen this shit too many times where people try to hide their true feelings when they really wanna say something like “all these commie/socialist dems just want to steal these poor poor billionaires hard earned dollars to give to these welfare queens who aren’t job creators and just hold our great country back”.

Nah boss. When you start bringing that “elite” language you are very much making your stances clear. Elite is a dog whistle for democrats. Coastal elites, pick your poison. It’s right under the use of “woke” to put your beliefs on full display.
