I have been high on this kind of hopium several times since the first nomination in 2016.
However, as a person of only somewhat higher than average intellectual ability, it’s never lasted longer than a few hours
Well, okay I will admit to nearly a week after the last election when I belive-hoped that the Biden admin must be working on some smoking gun election manipulation that would come out and day to save us all.
Old Soviet/Russian doctrine is to always play both (or all) sides of a conflict
Could Elmo be prosecuted for being an illegal immigrant.
This is the kind of DOJ weaponization I can get behind

Well, I agree that NO outcome in the US election could save Gaza.
Probably for different reasons than you, though.
In any case you will find a lot more abstainers on lemmy.ml or hexbear, if your goal is to actually reach a significant number of them
It’s funny because it’s true ----- lotta maga boomers 'boutta lose their ss and their Medicare
It’s very unfortunate. Is it more unfortunate that those who voted against this instanty will also be harmed?
No. It’s very unfortunate for everyone.
The “sides” are not even remotely the same
This is where we are. Hit it, Jack.
GYB is very powerful and flexible, and I’ve used it to manipulate Gmail accounts in the hundreds of gigabytes.
The community is decently supportive, but of course it is a command line tool so some familiarity with the shell is useful.
Because…
Grandpa Joe worked with the mob rum-running, in order to amass the family fortune, and fhey in turn delivered several major cities in the election, but then JFK let RFK Bobby loose on an aggressive anti-racketeering rampage
Among other reasons ofc
I’ll agree that Dems have given up way too easily, mostly based on naive “for the good of the country” white knighting.
It probably didn’t start with Al Gore and the hanging chads, but that would have been a good time to realize that sometimes these fights are existential
Doesn’t change the fact that Stein is currently a russian-funded spoiler and she’s a drag on the Greens and does great disservice to all of the non-major parties.
I hope No Labels and other serious ‘third paries’ spend time focusing on voting reform like RCV or similar. Of course, many nerds will (probably correctly) claim that RCV is flawed in whatever way and we should try to move to some other even more complicated system. And then nothing will happen and we will continue to be stuck in a bi-party system with smaller factions only ever having the opportunity to act as spoilers in national or even state-wide races.
Most likely they have enough volume in them for that to be unnecessary.
Indeed. I might vote for some Greens down-ballot, but Stein is a stain on the party and its cause
Certainly if she has been trying to effect real change in a realistic way, rather than an egocentric impossible run at the presidency…
Things would have been different. She was one of many straws, which if subtracted, would have prevented trump
So for that and that alone, she and the rest of the greens can fuck right off.
See the No Labels folks for a more common sense way to be activist on national level politics.
Greens would be great if they would focus on good, winnable races from the bottom up…
What that called again?? Uhh ‘grass roots’
Not exactly ------ no one really buys enough sex toys to become a 'known regular ’ in a sexshop
For-sure he was known to so many staff because he was regularly visiting the ‘video booths’ area, which generally have gloryholes or other forms of public, anonymous sex.
Chances are very high this guy was giving and/or getting blowjobs to/from strangers every weekend
I’m not a huge trek nerd, but recently watched the whole series, and the two main irritations were the blatant/unnecessary/annoying/offensive sexualization, and the theme song.
It’s easy to skip the opening sequence but the gratuitous fetishizing was pretty awful. The whole series would have been better without.
All this tells us is that Russia has literally zero anti-aircraft/intercept capability — even for national-level strategic sites.
They keep getting their turds pushed in by radio-controlled light civil aircraft pottering in thousands of km at highway-traffic speeds.
Pitiful.
