Spoiler alert:

Bernie did not get more votes in the primary than Hillary.

Bernie did not get more votes, so Bernie did not win.

If you wanted Bernie to win, you needed to vote for him.

Why is this so fucking hard for people to understand.

Gonna go out on a limb here, and guess that people living in a cabin where the electricity only works a few hours a week aren’t going to buy an electric car.

As for access to public chargers… I just spent the weekend in a rural area and had no problem finding a charger within 20 miles of me.

If you screw up, you can usually get to a charger a few blocks away and snag 50% of your battery in 20 minutes.

I charge entirely off of a standard 120 outlet, and it easily handles my daily and weekly travel needs, along with my partner’s numerous errands and extra trips throughout the week.

You’re forgetting one key thing. Republicans hate Muslims more than they hate Jews.

Also, their nutty evangelical base believes that Jews need to be in Bethlehem in order for the second coming of Jesus to happen or something.

That’s glossing over the many times he tells people to kill each other.

Here is the thing… You can work on both of those. Literacy is not capped by your intelligence, unless you are exceptionally challenged, like mentally unfit to live by yourself challenged. You can read more books, and journal articles, and expand your reading ability.

IQ is mostly bullshit. The test can help identify if you have a disability, but it’s relatively worthless for determining how intelligent you can actually be. You can practice pattern recognition and then take an IQ test, but all that means is that you are good at recognizing patterns. There are plenty of “High IQ” people who can’t figure out basic shit, like how to put on a spare tire.

So don’t feel bad if you don’t score well on those tests. They only measure how you did one time on one test.

Part of this statistic is because we have a high immigrant population that doesn’t speak English as their primary language.

Let’s not blame the immigrants for this.

First, there is no official language of the US. Literacy tests can be administered in Spanish, Arabic, Japanese, or whatever language the subject predominantly uses.

Second, the US does not have unusually high ratio of immigrant. That’s a lie that had been created by right-wing bigots. The US is about 14% immigrant, which is not unusual compared to European countries.

Anecdotally, most of the complete dipshits I know are born in the US. The people that manage to immigrate are the individuala who can read and write well enough to understand immigration documents (with the help of a lawyer), and have a decent chunk of money, or necessary skillset to sustain their finances in the US.

It’s a time commitment I’d rather fill with masturbation and videogames.

I’m scared because I have a huge iPad for a center console.

I’d say this is a point for electric cars, but it’s only a matter of time until those start playing ads… And you’re gonna be there for 10-30 minutes…

“Does it keep better time than my 15 dollar digital Casio? Is it sturdier? Will it last longer? Is it more comfortable? No? So you spent a ridiculous amount of money to buy a less functional watch made out of precious essential materials just to try to impress people like me?”

Honestly though, if you want to piss watch people off, just say “Oh, it looks just like a regular watch, thanks for pointing it out”.

I’d imagine that there isn’t a rule explicitly prohibiting this… And also that they would still confiscate it.

Yeah, after watching his Jubilee session, Jordan’s debate strategy boils down to…“I’d like to nitpick the definition of every word and supplant it with my own”.

Make sure to die in a peat bog, and then give it a few thousand years.

Touché

They do keep records, but rarely share them.

If your prospective employer says that they didn’t hire you because of what a previous employer said about you, and that previous employer doesn’t have rock solid evidence, then you can sue for lost wages, defamation, and get a nice chunk of money.

When people called the store I was managing to get info on past employees, the only thing we would confirm was the time range they worked for us,

Zipties, thread, scrap wire… I would try to put it back on, even badly if necessary.

No it is not necessary for your car to work. However…

It helps improve the fuel economy of your vehicle, which will save you money. It will reduce rust and wear on your vehicle, which will save you money. It costs a ridiculous amount of money to replace that piece of plastic. Typically, those pieces are layered on, and the the piece behind it may rely on the one in front to stay attached correctly.

If you plan to have the car for more than a year or two, I would recommend finding a way to remove it properly, or re-fasten it to the car.

What was the name of MLK’s organization?

She has organized millions.

You missed this part

…fault of the people whom we have elected to implement policy for us (for the most part).

MLK didn’t write laws, he didn’t sign bills, he didn’t judge the constitutionally of existing legislation, he mobilized people.

Go look at headlines and editorials from the civil rights era, because you are punching down on Greta trying to stand up for us the same way they punched down on MLK.

Greta is organizing more people than MLK did. The lack of results is not her fault, but the fault of the people whom we have elected to implement policy for us (for the most part).
