To add onto that, looking at 2020 vs 2024 the difference in turnout was about 2%. Was that all the difference, no, but it was definitely some.

Most nonvoters though do have a preference as the polling here demonstrates, they just don't vote for a variety of reasons including the fact a lot more people than we imagine just don't care or pay attention to politics.

It's a reason I have grown more and more favorable to some sort of compulsory voting like Australia does but I don't think it would fly over here.

I used to send got bundle straight to DDS/DAT tape. I still have a box of tapes kicking around.

If our response to something like Citizens United is to elect Donald Trump 8 out of the last 12 years, well, we get the corporatist, corrupt government we deserve.

What did we think Project 2025 was about? I mean, they literally said they would do these things but a lot of people did not care (or maybe only care now).

I think enough time has passed that we can start the "Trump admin bitchfest"

Yeah, this is the result from electing Republicans, who only are capable of destruction. If you asked them they couldn't actually tell you why this is good, you'll just get some vague, Randian nonsense.

Why isn't it? Do you have a judicial or legal basis for that belief? Is it just the FTC's purview instead?

Bernie asked people to "Fight Oligarchy", and the Right said "that's communism!" and the neoliberals said "let's not be hasty, some of my closest friends are oligarchs."

We can all be gig plumbers and do each other's plumbing, and like the gig app take 20% of our income.
Since that alone won't support us, we can also all be gig drivers, gig delivery, gig pet sitters, etc.
I'll definitely need to do some gig pet sitting to help pay for the pet sitters I'll need while out on gigs.

Luckily I only need to hire plumbers for new work. If I just need to cut some broken pipe out or replace a toilet, it's like an afternoon of my time on a weekend. Possibly less time wasted than waiting for a professional to show up between some silly window (8am to 2pm was a window I was given by one company)

Show me some examples chief. This is inside your own head.

I appreciate the new cope, you got your marching orders like a good widdle boy.

Yeah you can fuck off with your anonymity coward. You're a Euro right wing loser or an American right wing loser. And a real coward, hiding your location when you know mine. Absolute peasant behavior.

Yeah I do hate Trump and the people who support him and do servile apologia for him (you). It is my lens. I got TDS and I want it to get worse.

If given the choice between owning a small home and renting a large penthouse, it's surprising that most people don't want to pay rent.

Example of what? Practicing Muslims and democracy? USA. Done, easy.

2 options for you:

1: You actually aren't American in which case you don't know shit about this country and get your info from whatever chud pod-casters and foreign agitator X accounts, because you are a pawn. Also if you are truly a right-wing Eurocuck then worry about your own countries failings with immigration, America is and has been doing fine. We're better than you at it, you could learn from us instead of crying over your precious "culture".

2: You are American and still get your news from chud pod-casters and foreign agitator X accounts, because you are a MAGA pawn and a useful idiot. .

Your choice chief. You can cry Sharia law until you explode from rage all you want, it's deaf ears over here, been hearing that shit from losers for 2 decades now who have All. Been. Wrong. Any year year now right?

Per TFS, this is specifically a study regarding "50 top research universities"

That could be literally any field, though.

Some firms will still employ people who can think, because their leadership can think well enough to know computers can't. They will no doubt reap the rewards of keeping humans in more loops. But in the meantime, a lot of people are going to suffer a whole lot.

There's no start of the year of the linux desktop because that started ages ago and will continue gaining ground gradually until either a new thing comes along or Windows dies in fire and it becomes the de facto choice for people who don't want to buy Macs.

On the other hand, it is quite logical to believe that SCO is being reanimated again for the benefit of Microsoft, because there has never been more interest in replacing Windows with Linux.

What's left of SCO exists solely for the purpose of attacking Linux for the benefit of Microsoft's shareholders and at the expense of everyone else, so that's still pretty evil.

They also unified copyright law among those signatory countries to a significant extent, so at least your suit is likely to succeed in any of them.
