I looked back over the 2020 primary data and Kamala dropped before she even got to the first vote, Warren continued to pull small groups of delegates after super tuesday. In a very real sense Elizabeth Warren beat the pants off Kamala in terms of the primary. I was really pushing for her early in 2020 because I felt she was a consensus candidate between the further left Bernie types and the centrist Buttigieg types.

It feels like a recurring pattern of getting momentum then giving up before the fight and declaring that the only way forward is to compromise with the GOP. This pervasive self-defeating attitude that people don’t want good things constantly undermines any attempt to sell a democratic vision. If you pre-emptively declare that centrism is the only viable path and attack anything that you think threatens your appeal to the center you will only ever be hurting your own position. To govern effectively you need to sell people on your vision, you have to have an idea of what you want the future to look like and then you have to convince people that is the right way. Going in with the only goal being to win, and adopting whatever mishmash of policies sounds popular to get there will never speak to people, and actively attacking the people with ideas and vision for being too “unelectable” is just self sabotage.

Nothing but the boring one other States use at my polling place, the disappointment is immeasurable

This is an aspect that makes me irate. People will say that its pure electoral pragmatism to support Israel, but how is losing Michigan over it pragmatic? I have seen no convincing argument that an arms embargo would be more dangerous for her electorally than continuing to tripple down on supporting Israel. If its not taken as a given that genocide is a pragmatic approach, then it seems obvious that the choice that leads to less genocide is correct, but Harris won’t take it.

This is where I’m at. I’ve been open that I’m voting for Kamala, but people are literally posting that she has “no scandals” unironically, and will call you a Russian bot or a Trump supporter for disputing that. It’s absolutely unhinged, and does nothing for her election.

You are so spot on with Dead by Daylight. If the survivor chosen to get “rushed down” has a couple specific things in their build or their team can play around it, it becames a huge uphill battle for the killer to get anyone else, but in public games often the teams aren’t coordinated enough, or the survivor chosen isn’t skilled enough to stall it out

And nothing else? You sure about that? No statements on how chaining prisoners to the floor is totally fine and normal?

Luckily someone already got your number in the other thread you made:

Because being VP in an administration lying to continue arming a genocidal dictator is not a “scandal”

Sure wish centrists had pressured her to flip on this when we first started saying this would happen almost a year ago, but instead they called everyone who saw this coming Trump supporters and Russian bots. I’m sure they will all turn around and blame leftists and Arabs for this, but I hope they remember that they sold out the Palestinian people for nothing.

Targeting lifelong members of the GOP who harbor doubts about another Donald Trump term is a central strategy of the Harris campaign. RVAT’s organizers believe there are just enough of these right-leaning voters to push dead-heat swing states like Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin over the top for Democrats.

Because why target voters you can reach when you can hunt unicorns instead?

Time to start tagging Trump in posts about Willem Defoe’s penis couched in conspiracy language until he brings that up at a campaign event

The unfortunate corrolary to this is that if you are fueling your tasks with anger and caffeine, letting go of that anger can be supremely demotivating. Trying to be a healthier person to be around can turn around and sap your will for your efforts. At least that is how my experience has been.

You could actually get laser boys, nuke gunners, and machine gun cars in the first title too!

Because Dems try to Price is Right fascists. By constantly reaching for conservative centrists they try to get as close to fashy as possible without going over

Everyday I wonder if the Biden administration has hit rock bottom in encouraging a genocidal fascist state and every day I’m disappointed to find that they are still digging

Shaders are typically code run on the GPU to make your game look good. They power lighting and various effects used in rendering the game. Virtually everything uses shaders, and precompiling them can save a lot of resources over having to compute them on the fly, but comes with associated hassles.

God its sad that I can’t tell if this is a legit fact or a joke

“Sorry Ukraine, your war crimes pass is expired, we’ll be shipping these to Israel too”

Given her past statements and respect for rules she’s gonna try and execute this guy from the bench
