Casey Finnigan posted:I don't know what whilst is supposed to be other than a fancy way to say while unalive at least had a good origin story of - various social media platforms started censoring the word suicide and kill so while talking about poo poo they had to get creative to not actually have their videos get delisted / shadowbanned.

I understand why they started saying it I just hate that they continue saying it even in places where they won't be punished by an almighty algorithm. Very obnoxious censorship. It's not their fault but it sure isn't good for em

Every generational shift comes with tension as the generation aging out tries desperately to cling to their relevance The only difference is that this time it’s actually justified because I’m in the aging out cohort

Democrats met with pro-Palestinian protesters have had an array of responses to the interruptions — from yelling back to attempting to connect them to Russia. But President Biden, who has faced a host of cease-fire supporters across the country, has been markedly more sympathetic. Even though they wholly disagree with his Israel policy, he often sides with the protesters’ sentiments. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/4589171-biden-stands-in-stark-contrast-to-democrats-confronted-by-pro-palestinian-protesters/

https://abcnews.go.com/538/vote-back-trump/story?id=109090626 The less you vote, the more you back Trump quote:And when we broke out respondents by their voting history, we found dramatic differences in whom they support for president in 2024. President Joe Biden performed much better among frequent voters, while Trump had a large lead among people who haven't voted recently. Specifically, among respondents who voted in the 2018, 2020 and 2022 general elections, Biden outpaced Trump 50 percent to 39 percent. But among respondents who were old enough to vote but voted in none of those three elections, Trump crushed Biden 44 percent to 26 percent I've had this vibe for awhile, nice to see some evidence for it. Trump benefits from higher turnout elections. And yes, Presidential elections will have much higher turnout than midterms and especially off-year special elections

Liberals are under the impression that the people are going to punish them unfairly by not voting for them. Like it’s a an active thing (which it may be for some). But the vast majority of the non voters are people that have checked out because they suck so much. And maybe sucking less might bring those people back, but instead they just scold people.

This is the thing that they never seem to grasp. Like they’ll say “you had an obligation to vote for Hillary to defend Roe” and then you can ask them “but what about the subset of voters that generally oppose abortion rights but that opposition is soft enough that they might be won over by other policy? Wouldn’t it be better to try to bring them in on other issues, thereby protecting reproductive rights, rather than shaming them for not supporting Hillary to save Roe?” “No! Those people don’t exist!”

this is an amendment to require the federal government to obtain a warrant before searching the phone records of Americans, which you'd think would already be covered by the constitution, but thanks to our wonderful supreme court isn't. this is in the FISA reauthorization bill. https://twitter.com/ddayen/status/1778818114437742805
