I voted 3rd party as a protest vote in a few elections up to 2012, but I recognized that it was exactly that. I also have lived through a term with Trump as president. Because of Trump, women in this country have lost their reproductive rights. That is just the most obvious example of how he has hurt this country. The fact you are still not recognizing that Trump regaining the presidency is an existential threat to democracy is exasperating, especially when the majority of Democrats are allies to a good portion of the Green Party's so-called platform. Ultimately, you need to face facts: Stein is clearly a shill for Putin and a spoiler for the election.

I think the biggest competition to consoles is tablets. A lot of Gen Alpha doesn't even know how to use a controller. EDIT I guess noone on Lemmy actually pays attention to kids these days...

I have about 100 games at this point I've gotten for free from Epic alone. Add in a few every year from steam and GOG, yeah not a great argument against PC...

Dude, he went full genocide denial. Nothing productive there. Full CCP propaganda troll.

Lol at the delete.

Why hasn't West Taiwan gone to war over Taiwan and the South China Sea? Because they are a Paper Tiger and know they would be embarrassed by the US Navy. That's why the US shows up to every "minor dispute", to keep the peace and support their allies. Additionally, China has recently been extremely belligerent concerning the border with India, which is a continuation of what has been happening since the 1960's.

Historically, you've also forgotten the CCPs military actions against Tibet, Vietnam, Cambodia, South Korea, and the many border conflicts with Russia/USSR.

As for genocides, it is very convenient for you to forget about the Uyghurs...

Robinson is doing all he can to make both him and Trump lose NC. I don't see him getting out of his own way. Just hope the split vote here doesn't stay the same as the last few elections....

If they could be strictly Originalist though, I could almost forgive them. I don't see a real Originalist argument for Presidential Immunity, as just one example.

Haha..hahahaha.....hahahaahahahshaaha

Senate is gonna be tight....

"Both sides are just as bad" is why half the women in the country don't have access to reproductive health. Harris and the Dems, while not perfect, are at least sympathetic to the plight of Palestinians. Blinken is working to get a cease fire as best he can. But I am sure your moral high ground in being uncompromising with your support of Gaza will comfort you when Trump opens concentration camps in our own country for the undocumented. The "dictator on day one" won't give a shit at best and it could be the last election your vote is even counted. You think the police are bad at protests now? Wait till he declares martial law and you are staring down the barrel of millitary M4s. We can't help anyone outside this country if we lose what little democracy we have left.

Doesn't he hold controlling shares? I mean, yeah him getting out of tXitters' way would make huge sense, but he would either have to sell at a huge loss or drop his overinflated ego.

The less visibility the DNC has with anyone associated with Epstein, the better.

Don't give the fucking orange-cheeto nazi bastard any ideas. Unless he wants to play Electioneering, and then less than 1% of attendees would understand he's admitting to his grift, stay the fuck away from Radiohead.

Dems would have to win every competitive race to keep the senate, and that would just be 50-50 so we need Walz as VP too.

He can understand, but still be pissed the work he put in during this administration wasn't able to carry him to a second term after being undermined by his age and debate performance. Especially considering the alternative

From a Ukrainian perspective, it is totally and completely a war.

No, Mr. Green, Communism is just a Red Herring.

11 aircraft carriers, the dollar being the fiat currency of the world, and our cultural dominance pretty much seals the hegemony win for the US since the '90s, but ok, sure dude. We're no different than other countries...

I guess this is one of the few times American Exceptionalism actually proves right. We've always been a melting pot of cultures. That includes many different "white" cultures for a good few centuries, but go ahead and ask the Irish and Italian immigrants if they didn't feel like minorities as they were coming off the boats to Ellis Island. Even next to the oppression and brutality both Native and Black Americans faced, their contributions to our society are innumerable and invaluable. The new immigrants coming from Latin America are just being played for political gain while we appreciate and depend on their willingness to work our farms and construction sites. Their kids are just as adapted to American culture as mine are, just as every second generation of immigrants turns out to be. We stress a huge amount about racism (and yes we still have a long way to go, as Trump shows) but when you really compare us to other countries, we seem to be doing alright. The melting pot will keep going, even once us white people are under 50% of the population.
