Do it.
Do it.
So you’re saying that if we have a phd in this we would be expected to know better?
Nah, I’m saying that Americans aren’t taught about politics, they’re lucky if they can make it through high school with a basic understanding of how the state is arranged.
A real education system would make American politics much less predictable, because it would empower Americans to shape their own future rather than merely being subject to corporate whims.
I disagree on #1, it only seemed like a reasonable stance because you were not exposed to information that would contradict it and were never trained to analyze political bias so you wouldn’t realize that the avoidance of the topic was significant.
I double-minored in Futures Studies and Political Science during postgrad, and predicted that the Democrat incumbent would have to drop out of the race to give their party a chance all the way back in 2016 when the DNC conspired against Bernie’s campaign. For those of us who know how to read between a propagandist’s lines, this has been an inevitability for a long time.
now that there’s no disagreement, bringing up the time where there was, just to feel better about yourself is silly and pointless.
Hard disagree.
This is a teachable moment that should be treated as an opportunity for growth.
Everyone who was wrong about the need for Biden to drop out of the race needs to do some introspection so that they don’t repeat the flawed political analyses that led them to support the wrong primary candidate.
You act like you knew this was gunna be the case all along.
Since 2016, actually.
In fact, the only thing that surprised me was that Biden actually dropped out. Never would have thought Pelosi would have been able to convince him.
Go fuck yourself.
Right back at ya, bub~
Since you are all knowing, explain to me exactly how deep earth mining is less costly and better for the environment than deep earth drilling.
Easy, just compare the amount of pollution required to make a battery and a solar panel with the amount of pollution required to extract and burn fossil fuels for the equivalent power output over the duration of the renewable’s working lifetime.
Oh, and don’t forget. Fossil fuels are useless without an engine to burn them, so you need to account for those infrastructure costs as well.
Do you want the math or would you prefer less reading and more pictures?
Voting is the least important part of the political process. America is not a democracy, voting merely serves to legitimize the state with an illusion of choice.
They’re all dressed as politicians.
Patreon deserves to die, their cut of the subscription income is extortionate for what amounts to a very limited web hosting platform.
Open-source alternatives like Mirlo or Cloud Patron will take its place, it’s only a matter of time.
Deleting Facebook wasn’t even edgy 15 years ago when I did it, lol~
You’re joking, but you’re right.
Once the content has been created, the near-zero marginal cost of online distribution makes the concept of charging for copies wholly untenable.
The furry community figured this out years ago, our creators work on commission or paid subscription through Patreon or one of its ilk. They (mostly) don’t care where you freely share their work because they already got paid.
XP was acceptable and 7 was decent, but just seeing the previews of 8 was the last straw for me.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if your screens are showing you ads then they aren’t your screens…
But you have to check to make sure the chatbot isn’t hallucinating the answers it gives you, so you could be even more efficient by just looking it up in the first place and skipping the extra step.
I am an expert in this and cryptographic chaining of a public ledger is like large language models, interesting but ultimately useless.
Giving your cryptographic chaining a pointless acronym doesn’t make it useful.
