  • Trump wins.

  • There was a massive media campaign against it. Every other political ad on tv was against it .

    Progressive policies are popular until billionaires spend millions of dollars convincing people that the world will end if we help poor people a bit.

  • This is how much sugar you are [possibly] eating.

  • If you let the sauce simmer for long enough, 4-5 hours, or pressure cook it the starches of the tomatoes will break down and you won't need to add sugar. The acidity will also go down the longer it's simmered too.

  • Harris vows at Michigan rally to ‘do everything in my power to end the war in Gaza’

    Jump

  • Have you been to a protest or talked to pro-Palestinian voices. The demand has always been to stop weapons shipments to Israel, even before October 7th. This isn't moving the goal posts, the goal posts have been there for decades, it's just both parties have and continue to ignore them.

  • Arnold Schwarzenegger endorses Kamala Harris: ‘I will always be an American before I am a Republican’

    Jump

  • This is the type of republican endorsement Harris should be touting. His politics may be shit but at least he's got broad popularity across the aisle , unlike Cheney and the five delusional people who still think his opinion is worth considering.

  • Also could be good to help struggling cities and provide jobs. Probably can't have some national security department in Detroit in case those damn Canadians try to invade, but maybe the USDA or something could bring a lot of well paying jobs there or any rust belt city.

    Could also save the government some money because cost of living is low enough that hiring a white collar worker in Detroit is way cheaper then in the DC metro.

  • Liz Cheney urges conservatives to back Kamala Harris over abortion

    Jump

  • they still have cachet in some important conservative circles

    What circles, people are acting like Liz Cheney was a big leader in conservatism like Romney or something but she couldn't even win a Senate race. She lost her last primary in a blowout this time around and won't even be returning to the house.

    The only thing your average person knows her for is her last name and that has become associated with Iraq and war profiteering and tainted in the last decade. Yeah you may pick up a couple middle age bush Republicans in the suburbs but your alienating even more people who despise the Cheneys and everything they stand for. Tons of progressives and Arabs are already staying home this election because of Kamalas Gaza policy, bringing on the war criminals daughter would only make that worse.

  • rumored to be in contention for a seat in a potential Harris cabinet

    No, fuck that. Do not let this neocon anywhere near power, we saw what happened the last time a Cheney was in the cabinet. Use her for the campaign if you think it'll help but dump her ass as soon as we win. She has nearly no political capital, she even lost her primary and is out of the house, there's no reason to court her.

  • JD Vance thinks monarchists have some good ideas

  • Nah, it's there hats that are red this time

  • Former KKK leader David Duke endorses Jill Stein

    Jump

  • It's an enemy-of-my-enemy situation

    Thats the same situation that stein is in, and the wider pro-palestinian movement are in with white supremacists like David Duke. Yes they support your movement but have completely different worldview and in most cases opposing values and motives. The right thing to do in that case is what stein, and most of the pro-palestinian movement have done and call these people out for the trash they ,denounce them, and remove them from the gathering spaces. Granted Cheney is a different case then David Duke and it's up to each group to decide where to draw the line. I personally would draw it away from a plutocratic war criminal like Cheney.

    If not for moral principle then for strategic reasons, having those people around discredits you. Yeah the pro-palestinian group could gain a couple white supremacists but they lose far more support among the great majority of people who despise white supremacists. Yeah the dems could gain some of those Romney Republicans , but they're also alienating the people who hate Cheney and everything he represents. That ratio is obviously less one sided then the Nazi, anti-Nazi ratio, hopefully, but it's still a chance your taking on Cheney. I wouldn't take that since Cheneys popularity and legacy have tanked in value in the last decade.

  • Former KKK leader David Duke endorses Jill Stein

    Jump

  • If you think this reflects badly on stein ask yourself 2 questions, did he endorse her because she's also a white supremacist? Did she accept the endorsement?

    The answer to the first is probably no since stein is a Jewish women so I don't think she'd get along well with all the other white supremacists who think she's sub-human. The reason he endorsed her was because she's the only one who would end the war in Gaza and fight the "Jewish lobby". If your a Zionist and believe that any action against Israel is anti-Semitic then yeah stein and Duke are the same. If you live outside that delusional world then you'd recognize dukes dislike for Israel and steins, (and most of the worlds) dislike for Israel come from two completely different values systems and world views.

    The answer to the second is easier, No, her campaign rejected it and called him trash as soon as they heard about it.

    So does this actually reflect badly on stein, or is this just the ravings of an insane person who's trying to elect a Jewish woman to take out his imagined grand Jewish conspiracy? Critique stein if you want but this is nothing.

  • That explains why they support her, it doesn't explain why Harris is bragging about that endorsement and campaigning with him. Especially when her main message is saving democracy and he's the guy that actually stole an election.

  • Harris Steps Up a Major Push for Black Voters

    Jump

  • This is just a small gift to the black bourgeois who make up a small portion of the black population and need help the least.

    What black people need is broad programs that help all people. Investment in inner City schools, free school lunch programs, affordable and public housing, Medicare for all etc. Black capitalism and neo liberal programs like this aren't going to help your average black person

  • Comparative anatomy

    Jump

  • Kangaroos hop because they can store a lot of energy in there Achilles tendon and use that to propel them forward without using much energy. It's good for covering long distances over flat terrain while using as little energy as possible , which is good for the Australian outback as they hop between small patches of vegitation separated by miles of desert. It's not that good for ambushing or quickly chasing prey in a rainforest like the t rex is probably doing.

    There's also the issue of scale, a t rex's Achilles tendon would have to be stronger then steel cable and as stretchy as rubber to store and re use that much kinetic force from its weight.

  • Yeah but this is a "needle in a haystack" problem that chatgpt and AI in general are actually very useful for, ie. Solutions that are hard to find but easy to verify. Issues like this are hard to find as it requires combing through your code , config files and documentation to find the problem, but once you find the solution it either works or it doesn't.

  • Harris Backs Eliminating Senate Filibuster to Restore Federal Abortion Rights

  • Presidential candidate Cornel West loses bid for Pennsylvania ballot

    Jump

  • Probably cause he thinks he'll spoil the Democrats campaign. Probably doesn't like his politics since if he ever did get in his policies would liquidate people like crow. West did return the money though

    Meanwhile Harris' donors are just as sus and are expecting something for their money. Whether that be AIPAC and getting her to continue the genocide or health insurance companies getting her to flip on Medicare for all. You don't see her returning or rejecting any money from them.
