  • DSA debates how to debate AOC presidential endorsement

  • Benefits to having a woman run is that she likely won't have rape allegations show up last minute.

    Plus I generally think aoc is the best person for the job.

  • Half the time it works. Half the time it doesn't. Idk what the determining factor is but I've just got in the habit of doing screenshots. Which I then still have to open another program to paste and save.

    What even was the reason for this awful file type ?

  • Half of House Dems vote to end US aid to Israel

  • It might have been. I believe I saw the video around when the Epstein votes were being done. I mostly remember the content and not the person. I remembered it was a youngish woman. But that's the limit of my recollection of the person.

    But sounds like a few other people have noticed this trend. Another comment says it's called "rotating villain".

    I remember when the Republicans were voting on releasing the Epstein files there were people saying that the Republicans were rotating people who voted yays and nays because a lot of Republicans citizens were also demanding the release of the files so they had to pretend to support it.

    I think this is around when I saw the video that said Dems do something similar.

    Sorry my memory isn't better. It's definitely been a while since I saw it.

  • I'm just saying your argument is that anyone who could influence is an "influencer".

    I'm not saying you are wrong but that we definitely have different definitions.

    I mean you could even extend that to saying a history teacher is an influencer.

    I think that definition is too loose but I acknowledge that there is no specific defined cultural definition so it's up for personal interpretation.

  • "Rotating villain" is a fitting term.

  • I guess your definition of influencer is different than mine. I think of influencers as a face selling products and lifestyle crap. Basically advertising.

    But your definition expands to include pretty much anyone making any commentary on anything. Even local news reporters.

    Here is the Booker incident I am referring to. https://www.wired.com/story/leak-exposes-members-of-peter-thiels-secretive-dialog-society/

    And I'm sure there are a handful of good Dems. I can think of a few. But like 80% of them are corrupt and need replaced.

    If the majority were working for the people we wouldn't be in this shit show we are in now.

  • Pete Hegseth announces annual testosterone screenings for service members

  • They have to be making a ton of money or those commercial spots are selling cheap. Idk.

    There is a blue chew commercial at almost every single commercial break. Multiple versions too.

  • Advertising has a long history of creating problems to sell you a solution. But it's just so insidious nowadays. And it seems to be targeting people at a deeper level.

    These ED commercials are just so awful.

    Wife ignoring you? Men at work not respecting you? Feel lonely? Also women are definitely judging you. They all KNOW you are inadequate.

    It's probably because you can't produce an erection for 4 hours straight at the snap of your fingers.

    They don't care that this causes cultural and society problems. They just want money.

  • Wasn't an influencer and they had examples. It was someone who made YouTube videos about political content. Not all women making videos are "influencers".

    I don't think it's far fetched to consider the corp Dems are using a playbook. They have a strategy. They don't just wing it.

    Wasn't it revealed recently that booker was a guest to some Republican billionaires meeting at a hotel or something?

    They are all in it together.

  • Testosterone isn't like... You need a certain level to be a real man or something.

    Hormones are very complex but here is something.

    Low status males have more testosterone.

    Men who have children have lower testosterone.

    It isn't as simple as more=better.

    It likely is, in part, related to aggression when too high.

    Lower levels as men get older doesn't really seem to be a problem except advertising tells men it means they aren't good enough anymore and definitely need to buy their products to increase it.

    As a feminist I am equally appalled at the attack on men's bodies as those on women.

    I think there has been this big shift to constantly tell men there is something wrong with them and to sell them a fix.

    It's disgusting.

    I watch TV sometimes (antenna, and mostly Xena or x-files) in the evening and it's non stop erectile dysfunction medication commercials or hair loss. Or testosterone boosting supplements.

    Jesus , leave men alone. They have enough shit to worry about without making them insecure about existing. The commercials are so dystopian from my female perspective.

    Idk how they make men feel but nothing good.

  • I heard an interesting theory from a YouTube video creator who made political videos (can't recall who)

    But the gist was this.

    Democratic reps and congressmen take turns voting against the people's wishes. So that no single one has a long track record of going against the people. Just a handful of times.

    With, of course, the majority vote being orchestrated behind the doors.

    This is how so many of Trump's cabinet picks had Dems voting for them but a different Dem every time.

    So no single Dem could be called out for "always voting with Republicans".

    I think this woman who theorized this is on to something. Wish I could remember who it was. But yeah I think she's right. It's all orchestrated.

    The Dems are intentionally losing bills and budgets that the people want.

    They have been, and are currently, working with the "opposition". Because most of both sides are actually all working for Israel's goals And billionaire's goals.

    Certainly Not ours.

    I knew of two women who told me they craved raw hamburger while pregnant.

    Yeah it's not recommended but it's not like chicken salmonella or pork that's generally full of parasites.

  • As someone who makes 3d models that print in multiple parts... There is no way any monitoring-software would know what you are printing unless you are using a file/model that's being used to find people printing that exact model.

    But any alternations such as cutting the model up further or changing a few cosmetic features would make the model "unknown."

    3d models are much more complicated than a 2d images. and ai can't even tell the difference between a dick and anything flesh colored and long.

    Now I'm not dismissing the issue with this type of attempted restriction.

    But there is no way it could possibly be enforced.

  • Also dilates for any heightened emotions including rage. Disgust. Fear.

    It just means "attention" more than anything specific without context.
