To your exact point about us being biased because we pay more attention to politics. I think people who wait till 72 hours before to decide don’t do so because they are politically ascended and have chosen to wait until 3 days before to make sure all of the facts are in on either candidate’s political positions so they can fill out their voter decision matrix to calculate the exact candidate for them.
Of course not. They wait until 72 hours or less because they haven’t given a single thought to the election and are just going to vote based on their gut feeling at the last minute. Unless a debate happens the day before election day (I want to see that happen lol) it’s in and out of the political consciousness too fast to matter. The same voters who don’t make up their mind until 72 hours before are the same voters who debates don’t affect in the slightest. The venn diagram overlaps.
To my initial point. The reason for a debate would be the old school reason of actually having the candidates posing hard-hitting good-faith questions to each other to show why their side has thought about the arguments and the issues more. That hasn’t happened in decades though of course.
I mean, Donald Trump’s a chicken and everything but he’s right. All that a second debate would do is have Harris wipe the floor with him. And that would be fun to watch but I wouldn’t be watching the debate to see which nuanced point each candidate is bringing to the table and to make up my mind on whose foreign policy positions are better so I can finally decide who to vote for.
The media blows this out of proportion for you to even consider this an option. If you think that’s an idea that makes sense then re-evaluate where you got that talking point.
There are laws banning trans people in states that affect like 5 people (I want to say there was a state law that literally affected one trans girl in the entire state.)
The edges curve in 3d space, but not relative to the sphere.

partyelectoral system.
Trump also caved to billionaires immediately despite all of his rhetoric.
Edit: it’s kind of whataboutism but I’m just pointing out the real problem.
Peloton is designed for rich people. They don’t say it explicitly because thar ruins the illusion, but the bike is meant to be a status distinction. You may only own it if you’re eager to be seen as someone who spends too much money on an exercise bike.
Yeah we’re baffled about how kids get sucked into worshipping Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos, but I remember a brief time in my life when I thought Steve Jobs was the greatest and that he singlehandedly invented the iPhone with a rusty pair of pliers and gumption.
Idk it kinda seems like they did her dirty.
Not me, but it would be fun to live 3 times.
Yeah, people are either spoiled or deluded with games needing to be 100+ hours, especially cause those hours are often padded with garbage.
Shadows of doubt gives you at least 10-20 hours of hilarious procedural generation that actually hangs together as an immersive sim. You start to see the seams pretty quickly but by the time that happens you’re digging into the actual mechanics. Also the devs take their time on updates but the last update was pretty huge so they obviously have a pretty big scope for the game.
You… Didn’t read my post. I wonder what exactly you assumed I said?
I appreciate the nonchalance but the help agent orange offered from the inside was calling off some guards for a little bit and mostly just not making a speech telling his fans to calm down. The fact is that January 6th was a pretty disorganized protest that turned into a riot due to a handful of instigators and what we discovered is that the capitol building is not routinely well protected and only avoided riots like this because they hadn’t happened.
Which is a good thing. Public institutions should be kept safe because they serve the people well enough that no one wants to take them over. Not because they employ an overwhelming police force to keep the public out. (The original intent was that citizens would be able to just walk around most of these buildings if they wanted to see the government functioning, imagine that eh?)
Now, obviously, DC is going to be on lockdown during inauguration day (as it should be) with a lot more military/police presence. But my point is that if an actually semi-organized militia had been there on Jan 6th with just a few more pistols and some designated leaders and organizers, they would have easily made it into the capitol even if trump had actually done everything to stop them. They would have been massacred in the resulting conflict as the US military sent its full force at them ofc but it would have been a much more consequential day.
This isn’t me going to bat for anyone, the right wing militias are pitiful both in numbers and training. It’s just that I think the potential for danger and bloodshed when these guys finally snap and make their desperate bid for attention will be a little more violent than I see people seem to think.
Capitalism is a form of economic organization, fascism is a form of government (or just a form of social control), antithetical to democracy or socialism.
This has me thinking. Do we prosecute for child neglect for cigarettes? As far as I’m aware we don’t. I don’t think that people should smoke cigarettes while pregnant but it hurts the baby just as much and it would make the ruling consistent
Hilarious?
The GOP has also successfully gaslit their base into believing the two best things for unions are controlling immigration and “tax cuts”.
This is like a quintessential meme, what on earth do you think a meme is?
