People in this post thinking that any fact will matter to the MAGA base…

He doesn’t need to hear arguments. He’s already decided how he’s voting based on the vacation offers he’s received

I worked for as a software engineer for a company that I did interviews for. We were told that “pet projects” were a red flag unless they were a current college student. They showed a lack of commitment to their current employer. Basically, there’s no reason for them to have a side project, they should be working more for their current boss.

I left that company shortly after.

Star Wars came after Dune. Star Wars is just Dune for people who listen to jizz.

There’s 2 possible explanations here: he’s got deep-seated mental issues that lead to him interrupting the graduation ceremony of hundreds of students by aggressively pursuing a person who “rolled his eyes” at his daughter, or, and more likely in my opinion, he’s a blatant racist making excuses for his racist behavior in his town where half the boys of a graduating class took a picture in front of the school doing a Nazi salute.

Either way, the man needs therapy

The guy is white. When do we start hearing something about “mental health care” that nobody will do anything about?

AKA women who no longer produce large gametes are no longer women.

For the same reason white people filled in public swimming pools with concrete when black folks started moving into the neighborhood.

You want the actual answer? Because the Democratic Party has spent the last decade torpedoing non-establishment candidates. They killed off other candidates even running in this primary, and shut down several primaries entirely. Why would we waste our time?

And let’s be honest, let’s say that now the DNC appoints a new candidate, like they legally can do, it’s not going to be an AOC or someone even slightly to the left like Warren. It’s going to be another neoliberal like Buttigeig who will continue to Biden’s legacy of absolute mediocrity and screwing over the American people in the name of “freedom”.

“She accused Biden of making amateur pornography, sex trafficking and paying for prostitutes”

I think she’s confusing Hunter Biden and Matt Gaetz again

They did violate orders. They were ordered to not get caught.

Why would he take a cut in pay?

I mean, it would ensure there are no more classified documents there

Jeebus, I’m a teacher and I’m held to higher impartiality standards than SCOTUS seems to be.

Interesting, because I’ve noticed my meds are less effective since my local pharmacy started having routine prescriptions filled remotely and shipped to them. Wonder if it’s a a temperature in transit issue

Remember when wannabe tech geniuses were talking about how liberal Musk was? How Musk claimed to be so liberal? Pepperidge Farm remembers

It’s hilarious to me that 40 years ago this person would have been solidly Republican. Now he’s a “moderate Democrat”. This term now means “conservative that doesn’t like Trump saying the quiet part out loud”

Or doctors who “correct” infants who are born intersex

It’s funny to see how Republicans have been “we don’t condone violence” and “this is unacceptable”.

Go look at their reactions to the attack on Paul Pelosi. You know, the celebrations, the “Democrats had it coming”. Funny how things change

I’m a teacher. This is very false. The issue is that being taught in schools and being learned in schools are completely different things. Between No Child Left Behind and IDEA, schools are being incentivized to graduate students regardless of the learning done in the school.

I know for a fact that these skills are taught in 6-8th grade social studies classes, as well as digital literacy classes. Hell, I teach 2 classes that are entirely based around critical thinking.

To be clear: these were policy proposals, not actual policies put in place by either candidate.

The fact that the George Floyd protests happened during this time of WFH and actually took hold for a while completely support this claim.

Because the 50% that are asking those questions are the exact people Republicans don’t give a shit about.

This is why average is a shit metric for this.

They did. But now he’s taking money from the wrong people instead of the right people.

Just to be clear, they follow 1 random Jewish student who says they “felt threatened” because they saw a swastika “on or around campus”. They then talk to another student who is the leader of a pro-Israel student group. They don’t talk to any of the people actually at the encampments. They don’t talk to any pro-Palestinian students. They take these 2 Jewish students word at face value. There’s no studies cited, and no other evidence offered.

This story is part of a larger media narrative to paint anything that is supporting Palestine or is critical of Israel as antisemitism. It accepts pro-Israel talking points as fact with little or no actual investigation into whether anything said is actually true.

Lee.

Pretty sure he’ll be a Fox commentator by morning

So do you call the Israeli army terrorists? Because they’ve done all of those things to an even greater extent than Hamas has.

I would normally agree, but when it comes to Israel, all bets are off, even for The Atlantic.

JD Vance? From Vance Refrigeration?

From the article: “Beyond ideology, the big consistency is that this is mostly a story of white gay men”

Uh, DUH!

So it’s not generically “queer” Republicans on the rise, it’s “gay white male Republicans”, then they changed the title to make it seem like it’s unexpected.

I love how this is OMG GUN but you’re welcome to open carry in parts of the RNC. The only issue is the kid was carrying concealed and didn’t have a permit.

Also, love the “empty bags used for carrying marijuana”. Like say “bags with marijuana residue” or something like that. They way they’ve phrased it, Walmart carries this with their garbage bags, with the name “Ziploc” on them.

Democrats won’t, they’re too busy “taking the high road”. And by “high road” I mean “bribe big enough to live comfortably in Thailand for the rest of their lives”

I remember having the light-measured-in-watts discussion years ago when LED lights were still considered a novelty. Of course, this was with a videographer who actually understood the issue. He complained that it wasn’t a good idea to limit car headlights based on their wattage, which is how all the laws at the time were written. 5 years later, suddenly there were LED headlights blinding everyone.

Which is why we need an independent autopsy.

I worked for a Sinclair station back in the early 00s. “Evil” is the only word I can use to describe them as an employer

It would not surprise me if Trump requested female agents. He seems like the kind of person that would do that.

Transgender means that the gender you are assigned at birth does not align with the gender you identify as. Generally speaking, non-binary people are considered part of the trans community, but some non-binary choose to not identify as trans.

Source: am non-binary and consider myself trans.

Wait, genocide is a progressive ideal?
