Ah I see what you mean.

Or we work lul

There are many other ways to fuck with government organizations, take away their teeth and funding and they’re essentially a lame duck, then when the delayed effects are felt in the next admin, it’s blamed on them instead of looking at how it got so bad.

It’s too late for me, I’m awake now. Edit:I really wish there were discord esque emoji responses instead of just upvote downvote lol

Yep, about to turn thirty and have been paying into an Ira, a Roth Ira and a 401k, I want to retire as soon a possible and do things that actually make me happy.

I knew it would happen :P show isn’t well known enough.

I think you should leave

The Republicans sure think so lmao

Same, we had Slack and our company got bought and now we have to use Teams, it’s a downgrade in almost every way EXCEPT power automate. I love power automate, and it can do so much more then Slacks automation EXCEPT for being able to trigger flows based on emojis, being able to post in private channels and ease of setup.

Powertoys too

I’m not even disagreeing that these are good solutions, it was more in response to saying we didn’t need emergency service vehicles lmao

Yup

You really think Trump outspent Harris? You’d be wrong, go look at the data, trump just went on spaces “normal” people listen, such as podcasts, where Harris didn’t.

He spoke about how America is broken, he gave incorrect reasons why, and is lying about helping people with his policies, but he didn’t lie and tell people everything is fine like the dems

Haha, I feel similar, I was really mad for a while that he just gave in, but at the same time, I think he did what he thought was best for the country at the time, Trump was and will be terrible for the country, and if the DNC was going to fuck over Bernie and he thought he couldn’t possibly win third party and if he DID fight that fight, Trump would assuredly have won.

Of course in hindsight, he won anyway so it would have been better to take the fight to the DNC then.

I don’t disagree those factors are at play, but they’re not as important as you seem to think in this day and age.

Bernie had real grassroots support and the dems stomped it out. The key is populist rhetoric and speaking about change, the DNC has basically been running on “not Trump” and “well things are bad but they would be worse under Trump.” while that is true, that’s not a winning message, give people something real to fight for and you’ll win support.

Is it a straw man when I am saying the majority of America is rural and therefore urban-specific fixes for this issue can’t fully apply in a country as large as the USA as it can for some the size of our smallest states

Look at Ben Carson

My point is it’s much easier to have localized support when there isn’t miles between buildings lol
