Thanks, that’s helpful. Feel free to PM me that link. And feel free to share more! I love trying new things, so I’m totally down to try a bunch of different solutions.
It’s been quite a journey for me, and it’s been kind of frustrating that there’s no go-to solution, because everyone has to find what that works for them. But I’ve been feeling a lot better since I started paying more attention, and I hope the same for you!
Which high-sodium electrolyte mixes and salt-pills do you use? I’ve got similar health issues, and have been looking for good drinks, but a lot of them have high-ish potassium rates, which I’m trying to avoid.

Literally uses a political compass
I don’t actually use the political compass
Why don’t you look up how many people Biden and Obama deported, and sent to torture prisons, without trial. Biden increased childhood hunger. Biden killed millions of kids with bombs, drones, and policies. Remember when the pandemic was still raging, and he took away everyone’s benefits, and didn’t provide even close to the meager stimulus checks that Trump did? That killed a lot of people, who were forced back into unsafe work conditions.
How can you compare anyone to Kamala, a person who has never held real power.
He’s the governor of California, so he does have real power. He also openely abandond his voters as soon as he was elected. He’s a zionist. He did photo-ops while destroying people’s homes.
…I can say with certainty: millions of lives a year throughout the world would be saved if Newsome was president instead of Trump.
Where’s the evidence of this? All evidence points to Newsome gleefully operating the orphan-crushing machine, just like Biden and Obama did.
What meaningfully different results? Biden fast tracked money for the border wall. Stole from the working class to give handouts to his rich friends. Increased ICE, Police, Pentagon, and war funding. Deported immigrants, and sent them to torture prisons.
The Democrats were blowing up kids in syria. They were supporting genocide. They did more deportations than Trump’s first term. Lets look at the treaties and deals that they made: Dictators, Slave-Owners, Racists, Genocidists.
Wow, what “meaningfully different results”.
Totally. I was just expanding on what you were pointing out. We are in agreement :)
No. In fact one of Trump’s campaign promises was that he wouldn’t start foreign wars, and it polled as highly popular. Anyone that wasn’t an idiot knew that was a lie, but at least he had the decency to lie about it. Democrats couldn’t even muster up that much courage.
Because the Democrats spend more time fighting leftists, then they do fighting the Republicans. Check out the recent DSA elections: Democrats spent a bunch of time and energy fighting against them.
Additionally, the Democrats fight tooth and nail to keep third parties off of the ballots. They also spend a bunch of effort saying that things like “not bombing kids” or “medicare for all” are unreasonable, or unrealistic, to keep people from thinking that 3rd parties are viable.
It has proven to be less effective at stopping the orphan crushing machine than voting for democrats.
Has it? Did the orphan crushing machine even slow down a little bit when democrats were in power? Because I’m pretty sure that it didn’t.
Guess what, both of these choices still kill people outside your country.
Don’t forget inside our country too!
Are you? Can you at least try to be a little articulate? Or is that beyond your obviously limited capabilities?
I’ve not seen either of them do that. The best we’ve gotten is them pretending to support trans rights, then immediately backing down when they have the power to do something about it.
Yes, it is clear that you aren’t following the logic. Maybe some context will help: The democrats support republican policies when they are in power.
Also, who said that you should “just let the republicans have more power”? I didn’t see anyone even suggest that.
Oh, they didn’t forget, they clearly just don’t care.
Can you point out where the comic suggests that you shouldn’t bother voting? Because I must have missed that part.
Democrats are, for the most part, pro union. They are the only ones supporting Medicare for all. They actually support science and education. They support social safety nets like social security and SNAP. They support gun regulations. They support foreign aid. They support safe access to abortions. They support LGBTQ rights.
No they dont. They campaign on supporting these things, but when they have power, they don’t do anything about them at best.
When they had a majority under Biden and Obama, when did they set up Medicare for all? When did they codify abortion rights?
And lets look at their foreign aid:
Life is demonstrably worse under republican policies for the working class.
And life got demonstrably worse under democratic policies for the working class and for people living in other countries.
Pretending like things will get better if we just let republicans win is not helping. They are literally turning the US into a fascist police state.
When did I say that we should let republicans win? I’m pretty sure I never did. The democrats are helping the republicans turn the US into a fascist police state. Remember when Obama increased mass surveillance? Remember when Biden increased funding to the military, ICE, DHS, cops, and helped build out the border wall? Remember when they both mass-deported and tortured people?
When one party is fine with me, if a little wary because I’m way further left than they are, and the other part literally wants to kill me and people like me, I see it as a pretty big difference.
Well, that may be the difference between us. I’m pretty far to the left of the Democrats, because I think things like rape, torture, and murder are bad. I see both parties actively supporting those things happening to people like me, and people unlike me. But I guess that doesn’t matter to you as long as they aren’t going after you.
The problem I have is when someone reduces the parties down to their stances on one single issue.
The “foreign child crusher” in this comic is doing a lot of heavy lifting, for a lot other problems.
Maybe I don’t understand the US system but I believe platforms are individual to candidates and that there are no overall party platforms that the candidates are expected to adhere to.
While the platforms are technically individual, they aren’t really. They have to get approval from their bosses (donors) on what they get to run on. And the few actual good things that they run on has to be just empty rhetoric. If they get elected, they are expected to immediately forget those things.
when do they fight the lesser evil?
Thats the neat part, they don’t. The cycle goes like this:
Rinse, repeat
“permanant”
