I mean, intentional or not, I think the statue does invoke imagery of a hanged man if you squint a bit. It certainly wouldn’t have been my first thought, though, so you’re probably right that projection also plays a part.

I think most of them know on some level that their arguments don’t make sense, but sometimes their cognitive dissonance requires them to type out some self platitude.
I personally think this is part of a growth process. I certainly remember writing things I thought that maybe I was wrong about, but leaving it to someone else to tell me exactly why.
That interview was something else. The guy said the statue made him scared of being being shot or “noosed up” because of how he looked (white).
Fox News truly has turned these people’s brains to mush.
99% of meat consumed in the US is factory farmed. If you bought it in a supermarket, it came from intensified animal agriculture, regardless of the feel-good marketing language.
How do you know an inorganic lifeform refuses to consume organic life forms? Worry not, they shall communicate it. HAHAHAHA.
You mean the guy who didn’t endorse anyone? I think it was clear that the higher ups would’ve liked to endorse Harris, but too many of the rank and file members support trump. I don’t think this’d move the needle much.
Free speech absolutist, though.
Yeah, the high end 9 series are (were) great. I’m still using my S9+ and just don’t have any good reason to “upgrade”. I don’t intend to get a phone that doesn’t have a headphone jack and memory card slot.
I do kinda miss having a stylus, though, having come from the Note 4 previously.
FOSS apps are generally more secure due to auditability of the source. Many eyes, and all that. Although I’m sure there’s also reduced interest from attackers on smaller platforms.
Also, malware devs would have the additional constraint of having to either open source their malware, which they probably don’t want to do, or sideload their payload, which is more work for them.
They’d have to convert half the building into a ranch to be considered neutral.
From the picture, yes, Google Play is indeed malware. F-Droid is the way.
Hear me out: inbreeding.
Money is kinda important when running a political campaign. Now that the floodgates are open, it’d be shooting yourself in the foot not to use it, even if it’s not the “right thing to do”. Is it somewhat ironic that one needs to accept dark money to have a chance at ending it? Absolutely. But that’s simply the reality of the situation now.
How about we save the cries of “Hypocrite!” until she has the opportunity to end it, yet still doesn’t.
Or shot him as well as 2 bystanders and another cop, and then claimed he had a knife, but that it was subsequently stolen.
Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime.
That’s why I use this app to normalize time.
And you can’t out yourself because, in many workplace cultures, the appearance of knowing is more important than actually knowing. :/
That’s honestly an excellent sanity check on the poll. I did take a brief look at the methodology table, and there were some interesting numbers in there:
[Polled respondent reported political affiliation:]
Republican: 1603
Independent: 1544
Democrat: 1720
Other/Don’t know: 485
As an outside observer, whenever I’ve watched US elections, it’s never been obvious that there have been that many independent voters. It did make me wonder if these are mostly strategic voters who shift their allegiance on election day, or if the MSM simply never accurately conveys just how many independent voters there are.

I think either you’re misunderstanding the data, or I am, because it does indeed seem to be 24% of Republicans according to the source:
Most Americans (81%) disagree with the statement, “if Donald Trump is not confirmed as the winner of the 2024 election, he should declare the results invalid and do whatever it takes to assume his rightful place as president,” compared with 14% who agree.
Around one-quarter of Republicans (24%) agree with the statement, compared with 13% of independents and only 5% of Democrats who say the same. Republicans who hold a favorable view of Trump are more likely to agree than Republicans who hold an unfavorable view of him (29% vs. 6%).
If the 24% was the portion of Republicans out of the 14% who agreed, who would the other 76% be?
I don’t blame you for being incredulous. The animal agriculture industry really goes out of their way to misrepresent how poorly they actually treat their animals. That’s why there are laws against recording and publishing their practices.
