They were actually threatening to do it.

Finally some good news.

You hope he is just being clever and indirectly talking about legalizing cannabis, but you know that in reality he is just so incompetent that he has no idea what he is talking about.

Oh we will, question is if they will be more like in Russia.

Aren't criminals already being deported if they are caught? He was clear that he is after immigrants (in some speeches illegal, but in some even legal)

First, watched? I have several dozen questions....

Saw != Watched, could have been for example seeing them going into a bedroom at a party. You don't see the act, but you kind of know b what is happening.

Second.....you didn't immediately call the police to report a child was being raped?

She was 17, not 7, if you were in that situation would you call, especially that you don't know the age?

Also the witnesses is pointing that she saw those two having sex, not that she knew her bio at the time.

Well ... whatever you call it, the inflation did slow down to 2.7%

No one before him was able to stop it.

He does look like Frodo on meth, lol, but still props that his economical plan that was perceived by many as crazy seem to be working so far.

Speaking of inefficiency... https://youtube.com/shorts/l5woagC47NM

Seems like you're arguing for the sake of arguing.

Trump is a pseudopopulists, he fools people into thinking he is fighting for them while fighting for himself.

We need real populists, that go after people's needs, not pseudopopulists like in GOP.

The far right populism is a pseudo populism. Real populists are (as name suggests) for the people.

Thanks, that explains it.

Let's not wrap it in some mysterious "big businesses" it is really oligarchs vs us, they take more and more of wealth making all of us poorer and then use media (which they control) to say it is because of minorities our lives are so shitty.

I highly recommend On Freedom book by Timothy Snyder which talks how we are being manipulated to go against our best interest.

I think everyone should read it and be aware as things won't improve unless we start fighting back.

I think the biggest issue was actually with messaging. Democrats were still pretty much relying on MSM which almost no young people watch.

I think that beyond what Sanders says what left needs are young people, true populists (as opposed to pseudopopulists ones like MAGA has) with progressive messages.

From people close the me, the ones that are MAGA/religious all were actually the most depraved ones when they were younger.

I don't know if they think of they have to make it up for those years to still be able to get to heaven or something.

There supposed to be his sentencing on 26th, but after he won I doubt it will be anything.

Edit: after looking more into it, looks like he is appealing that president elect has the same rights to do any crime as president based not on Constitution or any law but on the DOJ memo.

Author gave many reasons I saw on social media, especially the top ones she mentioned like economy concerns or that she is a communist which are the opposite of reality.

She concentrated on what people are saying instead of why.

We are living in a world where huge part of population abandoned traditional news such as TV, newspapers and is getting their vote about the world via social media through memes and influencers.

The biggest problem with it is that this unlike traditional media is open to foreign interference. We had report of American bloggers being paid by Kremlin ridiculous amount of money, we have evidence of bots being used to persuade public opinion, astroturfing groups on Facebook and other social media that were traced to Russia.

And we still did nothing to stop it.

Half of America lives in a different reality. And it isn't just America but those efforts are happening also in Europe and other Western countries.

I'm Polish, I played it a while ago, and might be forgetting details, but I don't remember those chants being in Polish.
