Well they're doing a good job because I do not fuck with my fellow Americans.

I made this meme a while back. Got downvoted.

Now that Harris lost, it seems like people are agreeing with you.

These are technical terms. There's legal protest, then civil disobedience---this is how we ended Jim Crow; a lot of people had to go to jail to fight the system---and then there's domestic terrorism. If you don't think civil disobedience is going far enough, then you're advocating for terrorism.

I'm tired of "being the bigger person". Four years ago, Trump wouldn't even admit that he lost the election. They're hitting below the belt, and we have one hand behind our back.

This is why I agree with Republicans on guns rights. They won't give up their guns so fuck it, give me one too.

The word you're looking for is: civil disobedience. Break laws, get attention. Our grandparents did the same thing during Vietnam.

I thought Roe v Wade would move the needle but apparently immigration is more important

Maybe you could say this if the election was close. But the Gaza-Isreal voters are a drop in the bucket.

The only reason there was not enough time was because Biden took his time abdicating. We had more than enough time for primaries had Biden stepped down earlier.

White women, latino men, etc. It's just sad to see.

 

Basically the title. The fact that we can read an encyclopedia entry on the economic history of the Netherlands from our phone is crazy. Scrolling over to a random island in the middle of the Atlantic to experience a virtual street tour is insane. There are even websites that let you see live security camera footage (shoutout to EarthCamTV). We have so much information that we take for granted.

 
 

Maybe we should copy the French. They seem to have the right idea.

Another reason to like Tim Walz. He has openly supported RCV: https://www.rcvbloomington.org/supporters
