It's possible that it's not supported on your arch.

I agree that a primary probably still ends up with Kamala and would probably just be the illusion of choice. The DNC would close ranks around her in the name of Biden's legacy, just like they did for Biden back in 2020 when the vote was splitting in Bernie's favor, and in 2016 when it was obvious they just wanted to coronate Hillary and move on.

That said, even with a rigged primary, putting your candidate on the debate stage to address your constituents instead of skipping directly to fellating non-existent centrists in the general would have been good.

Cheers to that, fellow Texas drunk

Texas is incredibly resource rich, even if the people who live here are generally fuck faces.

I mean, fuck Elon and Tesla but if you're spending money on a car you're giving it to a bastard one way or another. The CEOs of Ford, BMW, et. al. might not be making asses of themselves on the global stage, but I'm sure they're still horrible. Even used cars run on gas 99% of the time.

Child abuse is still illegal here regardless of corporal punishment. You can get CPS called on you for a lot of things that aren't physical abuse too.

But of course I'm sure it being illegal in Europe means it's totally non-existent. If there's one thing kids are known for it's having enough awareness to self report their parents bad behavior behind closed doors, right?

Because at some point after the first few million you turn into a dragon that must hoard wealth and the people that generate that wealth become a cost to minimize.

It's a "collectible" piece of plastic that looks like a fat chibi, square headed version of some tired character from pop culture. The only people that own them are psychic vampires.

Hell yes, Amy Goodman is a national treasure.

There are definitely some places the CGI could be improved these days (thinking distant group shots) but yeah, it's incredible how well everything else holds up 20 years later even in 4K.

Everything on that list is typical neoliberal Democrat tinkering around the edges while the world burns.

It's not that the individual ideas are bad, it's that they have no vision of a better future for most people. Where is Medicare For All? Where is tuition free college? Where is anything that isn't just a bandaid for a specific paper cut when the whole goddam country is being devoured by fascists and corporations?

That's the meat I'm talking about - something that millions of people on the left could vote for in self interest. What we got was meat for checks notes non-Medicare diabetics.

Israel is currently genociding Palestinians under a Democratic president, they didn't need Trump's approval for anything. The bulldozers are already running, the people are already having their lives destroyed.

Again, I voted Harris for harm reduction, so I see your point about Harris possibly being better for Gaza in the long run, but it's not "kill my friends now" or "kill my friends later" it's "kill my friends now" or "kill my friends now and maybe, just maybe, stop sometime around the midterms when it's politically convenient and only if Harris doesn't need to keep getting the fascist vote". I don't blame Gaza voters for looking at that choice and holding out for what they really want, which is "stop killing my friends now".
