Then you jam the uninstall button, snap the CD, and bury yourself in your bedsheets dreading the hangover after your brief moment of lucidity fades.

Yeah, uninstall and snap the CD definitely not buy a couple more copies so you so you multi bot farm with D2jsp for perfect uniques. Absolutely definitely not that never ever didn’t happen. Nope.

D2 listed as slop? SLOP!?!?!? Who created this horrible meme and where do they live? My baseball bat wants to have a few words with them.

Privatize the profits, socialize the losses.

Once money entered politics politicians no longer represented the people.

You always sue starting from deepest to shallowest pockets.

He’s lost interest in bombing brown people. The explosions no longer excite him.

I mean Chuck Tingle books exist so the art to support them has to exist.

Isn’t Tails OS accountless? At least the non-persistent version.

You will have to show ID to prove you are of age to drink if there is alcohol in it if you want to open it. No ID, no fridge access.

Looks like spam with a sketchy link I wouldn’t click/tap.

Supposedly Musky is going to build robots instead of cars.

Trump and his cabinet are so inept he is asking reporters/columnists what he should do with Iran. All because he believes Bibi’s 30yrs of lies regarding Iran being “close” to having nuclear weapons.

Unless Congress does something Israel will takeover Gaza regardless of Iran.

Don’t think I have ever owned a Motorola phone but it seems I just might in 2027.

And under the age of 65.

Silly me! I thought he miscasted a levitation spell.

Reading the actual bill I think what you are describing would not work.

Emphasis mine.

‘‘(I) with assets under manage-11 ment of not less than $150,000,000; 12 or 13 ‘‘(II) that is directly or indirectly 14 owned or controlled by a person that 15 directly or indirectly owns or controls 16 1 or more investment companies or 17 private funds with total assets under 18 management of not less than 19 $150,000,000. 20

But I am not lawyer so maybe your idea would work.

Are you advocating third party voting? Is that what you’ve been dancing around?

Where I live a local professional sports team is trying to build a new stadium because the current one is “difficult” to park at. This is based on feedback from fans and traffic studies during game days. So they want taxpayers to pay billions to build a new stadium with more parking garages. Instead of adding more buses and bus stops or light rail or any form of public transit to alleviate the problem at the current stadium, which is barely thirty years old.

Then how did the millions of vote difference between Harris 24 and Biden 20 not end up in the Republican column. Voters always have another choice and its the one they are making by default because its where all voters begin: to stay on the couch.

So not voting isn’t related to voting?

You created a second “No” option for choosing whether or not to vote just to be right.

And as an aside, even within your 2x2 matrix you acnwledge voting isn’t a binary. There are 4 outcomes possible in what you outlined. Likely Democrat, Vote; Likely Democrat, Don’t vote; Likely Republican, Vote; Likely Republican, Don’t vote. 4 possibilities.

Not voting is not voting is not voting. If you want to add in other qualifiers to whether or not someone votes so you can be right okay.

The whole point here is that the game theoretical strategy of “strategic voting” or “voting for the lessor of two evils” falls apart when it meets reality. It doesn’t work, as in, it doesn’t give you the strategic outcomes you want it to because you didn’t represent the game correctly.

It does but I’ll address this as we go on.

Voting isn’t a binary, no matter how much so you insist that it is.

Again, it does but I’ll address this as we go on.

A voter can simply not vote, or not even register.

Not voting. Option one.

Or vote third party, or write in the name of their cat.

Voting. Option two.

You approving of or not approving of those things doesn’t mean they aren’t available as options to a voter.

Yes, there are two options,: vote or do not vote. Glad we cleared that up, again.

But there is no credible mechanism for changing the inarticulate mass which is the “electorate” to adopt your perspective that they should have just voted to support genocide.

No idea if there are studies to support this but I would bet my bottom teeth that something close to a majority of those who did vote for Harris were not supporting genocide or even the DNC. We, they, were voting against Trump 2.0 and Project 2025. The fact that some voters decided to cut off their nose to spite their face and not vote at all because, again, Harris wouldn’t say the words to make them happy? Yeah, I am going to assign blame to them for where we are now.

You are demonstrating a fundamental misunderstanding how elections work, how they function. Effectively, you are subject in the same kind of propaganda that the petroleum industry used to convince consumers that individual actions, specifically recycling plastics, was going to save the world. This is a bad faith approach because it shifts the responsibility for the outcomes or consequences of elections from those who actually have power in the system, like parties, political campaigns, and candidates, to those who effectively have the least power in the system: voters. That perspective you hold, is the result of a long effort on the parties to dismiss the responsibility they hold for actually appealing to voters and their demands.

Can’t tell what exactly you are talking about here. Third party candidates? Or just insulting me because I don’t agree with your apologism.

There is one path to winning elections: understand the electorate, and then move candidates into adopting those positions.

Good idea! Got a few billion dollars I can borrow?

You can’t shame, badger, or otherwise abuse voters into voting how you want them to. It doesn’t work. It doesn’t matter if you don’t like that. Trying to do so is counterproductive.

If America survives the remainder of Trump’s term hopefully those who didn’t vote and helped Trump get back in the White House and realize how stupid they were then the shame, badgering etc will have been worth it.

Putting the responsibility of a failed campaign on the backs of voters just shows more electoral illiteracy on your part.

The failed campaign that is on Harris and the DNC. Trump winning the election I already gave my breakdown.
