It’s like my university campus removing all ashtrays to stop people from smoking.

Yup. “They rigged the election and now I’m president again.”

So fucking nonchalantly too.

He straight up admitted on air that the election was rigged, and there hasn’t been a peep from anyone

Unrealized gains means that the investment vehicle has increased in value since it was purchased, but hasn’t been sold at that value. Every type of investment is going to have either unrealized gains or losses until it’s sold.

So, one guy is going to go around arresting top officials of a dictatorship?

It’s helpful to point out to people that following established rules doesn’t work when the people in power disregard them with impunity.

There’s not going to be a legal or political uno reverse card that will stop what’s happening. The only established mechanism that still exists to get us out of this is if the military does its duty and protects us from the domestic threat to the constitution.

But, with Trump replacing the joint chiefs and top JAG members, I’m not betting on that happening.

People need to stop living in the fantasy of, “we just have to wait it out for 2-4 years.”

Who enforces those subpoenas? Who enforces the contempt charges? Trump is in charge of all of the enforcement mechanisms.

Why do you think flipping the house matters? We’re living in a dictatorship.

Or just Google what a fucking tarrif is.

That’s all it would take, typing 6 letters into a search engine.

Just a friendly correction, it’s affected, not effected. Affected is a verb (which is how I remember).

Lol, Biden doesn’t have a long track record of trying to make things better.

It’s not timid complacency to acknowledge that the country is sexist. Half the country doesn’t even see them as people. I’d say the same thing if we were talking about an openly LGBTQ+ person too.

We need someone who isn’t an insane fascist and has a long track record of trying to make things better. That’s step one. After that, we can focus on step 2.

AOC being the VP pick will help the country shift more towards being ready for a female president, because she would be way more active than Harris was.

My wife’s 90 year old grandma was able to pick up Mint with absolutely no issue. Just put the shit she needed on the desktop and that was that.

Unless you’re redlining your systems 24/7, the load really shouldn’t be that bad.

My first gen i7 would still be going strong if the mobo hadn’t started dying. Especially running Linux.
