Undecided voters give Harris a look — but not a commitment — after the debate
  • Literally every election is decided by the “undecided”. Democrats vote democrat and republicans vote republican. It rare that anyone changes party. What determines elections is if democrats can get people who wouldn’t otherwise vote to vote. Every time people turn out, democrats win. When people are uninterested they lose. Those ~50k people in suburbs of swing states are not unimportant, they are the only thing that matters.

    White evangelicals waver after Trump’s shifts on abortion: ‘It’s disastrous’ - POLITICO
  • It’s completely anecdotal, but I just saw a post from the weird, hyper religious kid I was in the Navy with asking if any 3rd party cared about “unborn souls.”

    Why is the community for Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact like this?
  • Not to disagree with anything you’re saying, but I hate the phrase “borderline pedophillia.” Either they’re sexualizing children or not. It’s like saying “non-consensual sex.” There’s no such thing. It’s rape or consensual sex.

    Why is Facebook filled with so much random junk now?
  • As much as everyone loves to shit on Facebook, it was an incredible service. When I was in the military I was able to keep up with my old friends and their lives. When I got out I was able to simply keep in touch with my old military buddies. Now it’s just dead. I’m genuinely sad that this has happened :(

    Conservative columnist predicts Trump's 'October surprise' — and it's bad for J.D. Vance
  • Could he even do that? I mean JD is the official nominee for VP. It doesn’t seem right that Trump could just change his mind. Not to mention early ballots are starting to go out in 2 weeks. If you vote for Trump/VD that wouldn’t count for Trump/Kennedy. Right?

    Grocery stores boost political donations even as Democrats take aim
  • I’m in Oregon and every other ad on Pluto is about how great Kroger is to their employees. I feel like the average person doesn’t realize how disastrous the merger will be for everyday people. Food is already becoming unaffordable. They aren’t merging to lower prices.

    A conservative billionaire had some things to say
  • God I hate the circle jerking of Cuban. There is no “good one.” His PR team is working OT to paint this completely BS image. Fuck him.

    Peloton is adding a $95 activation fee for secondhand machines
  • Not surprising. They lucked into insane pandemic demand, and kinda didn’t do anything with it. Now they are picking at the corpse of their brand.

    Trump goes off the rails in midnight attack on ‘highly overrated Jewish governor’
  • Exactly. No one voted for Kamala. People didn’t vote for Biden, they voted against Trump. Hilary won the primary because Warren split the progressive vote and wouldn’t drop out.

    Dems haven’t put forward a truly clean and charismatic leader since Obama.

    Teen girl sues Detroit judge who detained her after she fell asleep in courtroom
  • Whenever I hear about a shitty judge, DA, or cop that’s where my mind jumps immediately. Once one of these people have their judgment or integrity called into question, every case they had any involvement in should also be questioned.

    Harris running mate Gov. Tim Walz owns no stocks, bonds or real estate, disclosure shows
  • “Donald Trump, who is a billionaire several times over”

    Since no one has ever proven he’s ever been a billionaire they should have the word allegedly in there.

    Tesla posts disappointing production and sales numbers for Q2 2024
  • This is what happens when your entire customer base is the “early adapters” and you stop offering technical breakthroughs.

    They were never going to be able to compete with the established automakers when they caught up. Instead of leveraging their brand, infrastructure, and technology to make an Everyman’s EV, serving a customer base that’s being ignored, they wasted all of their resources on the CEOs vanity project. Tesla is entering the death spiral.

    Should Democrats stay the course or replace Biden? | Robert Reich
  • Good points. However, I would argue that the DNC would absolutely fuck up picking a new nominee. They would pick some “centrist” unlikeable democrat that would try to appeal to a moderate middle that just doesn’t exist. They would run a flaccid campaign and manage to piss off everybody trying to appeal to everybody. Republicans would absolutely capitalize on the chaos.

    US Crime Rate Drops to ‘Historic’ Lows With Murders, Rapes, and Robbery Plunging, New Statistics Show
  • Literally, the publisher of the data explicitly states and explains why in the quote.

    The drop in reported crime coincides exactly with the George Floyd protests. Saying that because reported crime went down, all crime went down without addressing the cultural shift of the relationship between the public and the police is dishonest.

    I never made any kind of argument. I just pointed out that the FBI cautions the public from drawing broad conclusions to people who are drawing broad conclusions.
