I can relate to that. I remember specific memories, but my situation has changed so much that I don’t relate to being the same person

They and their donors would prefer thst over a Bernie win.

I say twenty oh one just because i dislike inconsistency and prefer twenty oh over two thousand

Dont issue that challenge to the universe

I’m sure the Republican govt will get right on that

The world was caught by surprise in 2016. A lot of evildoers didn’t even realize what was possible.

They have since realized, planned, and prepared.

We live in a post sanity world

I agree with your point, but pretend you are a moron for a minute.

Anyone who speaks well is now an “elite” and therefore cannot be trusted. Trump is automatically more trustworthy just because he speaks like an idiot and not “the elites who always lie”.

“Eating dogs and cats? Man, that sounds like something cousin Dweebus would say. Cousin Dweebus and me go way back, I trust him. This guy must he for real”.

One side is worse, but both sides ARE bad.

If democrats really wanted to improve our lives, they wouldn’t have quashed Bernie in 2016 or 2020. What they did this year with Kamala was equivalent.

She was still a better choice in every possible aspect over Trump. It wasn’t enough.

While you are technically correct (the best kind of correct), that does not subtract from the point.

Not anymore it isnt

What exactly did the Harris voters do to deserve this?

Who gives a fuck about the macroeconomic perspective

The economy, to any person with a pulse, means “can I afford to live”. If the dictionary definition of an economy is different, then speak the language of the people.

At least we have the hindsight of Nazi Germany to point to for parallela. Did they have an equivalent?

Honestly, I kind of get it.

I’m very attuned to keeping up with what is happening in the world, at least at a base level. The number of people I’ve met who just dont do that is staggering. The other day I ran into someone who didn’t know what happened on J6. Maybe they were playing dumb, but I didn’t think so.

The reason i kinda get it is because this shit is depressing. I would love to be able to just tune out everything political related and only see feeds relating to my hobbies and just be totally ignorant of how fucked everything is. I guess some people saw that opportunity and took it.

Even when it is not deterministic at a single event, it is at a group of events. I know that sounds contradictory, and there is probably a better way to word that, but for example - if quantum randomness means that you cannot predict where a specific particle will go each time you measure it, you can predict the distribution curve of where the particle will be if you measure it some arbitrarily large number of times.

I doubt he does his own grocery shopping, because he doesn’t have to, and also because of the exact reason you posted.

Having said that, if he were in a grocery store and I saw him, I’d be right at your side to ensure that piece of shit knew what I thought of him.

In order to get 99.9% certainty, 1) you are saying you are willing to have one in a thousand death penalties against innocents, and 2) that requires a system made of people to do their job correctly 99.9% of the time. I dont think there is a job on earth that people in a large group can do that well.

You have to actually say that you are asserting your right (in the US) to stop interrogations.

There was a case recentlyish (you can search for details if you’re interested, I can only recall the broad strokes) where an accused said “I want a lawyer, dawg” and this was interpreted as “I want a lawyer dog”, as in a dog who is a lawyer, and this was not found to be an assertion of the right to remain silent. The whole thing was eye rollingly stupid, but when in America…

The truck was nice, but it felt boring by comparison. It didn’t have that extra oomph that made the cyclops so exciting
