Ding ding ding. It’s incredibly rare for authoritarian governments to disarm the far right. The police have shown time and time again they will not protect you, and that’s if they’re not actively joining in

We protect us

The answer to the ruthless indiscriminate killing of civilians is not more ruthless indiscriminate killing of civilians

They’re solid generic blockbuster action-ish movies. They’re not amazing, but they’re fun enough that I think they’re worth a watch if you can’t decide what to watch one night.

And the scary thing is, a significant portion of the country will actively cheer him on for it. The dude could go into a full on fugue state, take a shit on the stage and start jacking off, and the MAGA dipshits would still be talking about how that’s somehow 4d chess

I think survivorship bias plays into it as well. Yeah, most the stuff on the radio today is kinda meh. Most the stuff on the radio in those days was kinda meh too. All the meh songs got forgotten, and you only remember the bangers. You’ve already seen it happen to 00s music and we’re watching it happen with the 10s.

But yeah, it’s wild how many people look at how accessible different types of music are now and just… don’t go looking.

In a pretty short span of time no less.

I’ve definitely had 16 drinks in a day before, just spread out over, yknow, most that day.

I’m relatively certain that JFK did similar during one of his earlier elections, but that’s going off memory of something I read a while ago.

Especially when you have constant pressure to be that way from everyone around you. Truth be told, I’ve always just felt bad for the kid. Sure we’re to the point where you’ve gotta expect him to at least start thinking for himself, but that type of deprogramming takes a long ass time.

That smile ad is still one the weirdest campaign ads I’ve ever seen

But then I don’t get to justify my 3d printer purchase with custom enclosures with their jobs engraved on them

The issue with the combination of rabbit holes I’m going down is all the damn pis Im gonna end up being lol

I was providing the primary reason a lot of us are holding our noses and voting for Biden anyway. Not everything is a personal attack against you.

I never said you said that, and I really don’t think I implied it. I said anyone who doesn’t realize the reality of the situation is a moron. I’m not sure why you’re so insistent to interpret that as “you specifically think this and are stupid”

Not sure where I implied that at all. I simply said expecting Trump to be any better on the issue is moronic.

I think they were meaning they’re fine with felons voting, which I can’t disagree with.

You’re not going to find many people here that disagree with that. We’re just well aware that as awful as Biden is regarding it, there’s a 0% chance Trump isn’t miles worse. Anyone who doesn’t want to accept that is delusional.

I think that’s just mead

I think there’s a chance that if he’s able to stay energetic enough throughout it, it may stave off the “yeah trump tried a coup but have you considered biden old?” crowd. This election is very likely to come down to some tight numbers in a handful to states, things like that may very well matter.

It could just as easily absolutely backfire if he has a fuckup though, so it’s risky as hell.

The answer is by simply not giving a fuck (or actively hoping to) if you inflict unnecessary suffering on the poor animal.

She’s very clearly an outright psychopath, so I’m guessing it was on purpose.

Funding a genocide is bad, actually.
