alpaca diseases posted:Is there any reason why The Independent couldn’t/shouldn’t give the middle finger to the demand for a retraction and dare her to take them to court so they can seek discovery on all that? None of the papers are gonna pull articles. She is an idiot and a jumped up kiwi farms troll and i won’t be shocked if she does some real stupid poo poo because she thinks she is untouchable and she isn’t.

Philthy posted:He also directed them to put marijuana on low priority. You can buy thca* nationwide right now with no one giving any fucks except for the states that have specifically banned it. Businesses are mailing it through the USPO without consequences. You can buy it at your local supermarkets, gas stations, and smoke shops. Delta 9 is wild in that it's sold in CBD shops here and actually gets you pretty decently buzzed if you're a lightweight like me. If I lived in a state without legalized recreational, it would be a decent substitute for the real thing.

I don't think the people who've come into the thread (so far) to opine on why they aren't voting for Biden are genuine. That said, some goons made good points about why people might feel disenfranchised but should vote for Biden anyway. But one thing I didn't see mentioned yet is even if the Dems win, it's hard to push for change when the winning margin is really thin. If that happens, they'll stay dead center and try not to rock the boat. It's only if they have comfortable margins that they can take bold progressive positions and not be afraid of losing a few voters for a cycle or two. (When those lost voters either forget they issue or realize the changes didn't make the econo imomy collapse or crime skyrocket they come back.) I think the road to progress is not just 'vote dem', it's vote dems in with undeniable margins, to allow the progressive factions to start to speak up again. I do understand some people may find that hard to swallow - there are brutal things going on in the world that are being ignored at best and actively assisted at worst, and this hasn't changed significantly in decades with either of the parties - but I don't see any other winning strategy. e: I won't blame anyone for hating me for talking about "long-term winning strategies" while their families are being killed. I would too. But people making a trolling game of it can get hosed. crusty fucked around with this message at 12:43 on Feb 22, 2024 |

I know the answer is "stupid loving Republican poo poo", but how the hell is it legal or accepted that some millenial failed real estate agent/ turned terrorist in loving NYC is making decisions for school boards in Oklahoma? Like don't you actually have to live in the state to be appointed/ given a state job? Fell like that's a given. Does she do all her work remotely or something? What qualifications does a Tiktok Kiwifarms troll have for education policy? Holy gently caress Oklahoma government even bigger joke than I thought.

It’s probably not fully legal. If she writes anything disparaging about the murdered kid or it comes out in some discovery, then her rear end is gone, least from job. I know her weird kiwi farms psycho bully type, she is gonna attack them publicly and also have actual official emails doing so too.

Non-Americans excepted (I don't blame any non-American for not fully understanding our confusing political system), I've realized that there's good percentage of folks who comment about politics online who don't understand how the US government works. I suspect this is an intentional side effect of 35+ years of dedicated propaganda.

Anders posted:As a non-American I feel I understand the US political system better than the majority of Americans Same. I'm Irish but spend a lot of time in the States, chopping it up about politics with intelligent people, but many of them are not on top of their own politics. One example, I remember talking about the 100-mile zone around the border, where 200M+ Americans live, and how the 4th Amendment is not fully applied there (constitutionally dubious) https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/border-zone None of the people I was talking to had a clue what I was talking about it even though it applied to all of them, and there were some people there who have run for local office or are activists

Anders posted:As a non-American I feel I understand the US political system better than the majority of Americans I feel the same way. Domestic politics in europe are generally not that interesting to follow. On the other hand, news articles about US politics often sound so crazy that they have great entertainment value.

A lot of Americans don't even bother. I get people who just want to stay checked out but gently caress the people who want to have strong opinions about something they know nothing about.

I've never been further west than Inchnadamph. But yeah, I think Europeans who care about politics knows just as much about US politics as domestic because what US does will have a larger impact on our lives than what happens locally. Trump wins and who knows if we get invaded by Russia in three years

ascii genitals posted:Lol you can buy 95+% pure thca diamonds through the mail now and wuffles is like "I just want to make sure no one gives Biden too much credit for the good things" The original question was why isn’t Biden getting credit for the things he’s done (specifically the student debt relief). And I’m telling you why. Don’t have to take my word for it, you can just look at his polling numbers.
