Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race?
  • Terrible take, she's not a politician and not interested.

    Now Gretchen Whitmer might have been a better candidate had we been able to have a primary.

    This is a bigger culture shock than the metric vs imperial system to me.
  • Yes, correct, the first floor is at ground level. When you place another level above that first floor, it is a second floor.

    A single story structure has a floor, it's first floor, and no other.

    Eat the rich.
  • I mean, yes and no. There's biology that drives human behavior, as much as we want to pretend otherwise and physics are responsible for scarcity.

    Given our biological programming and scarcity of resources there isn't an economic system that can "be fair and equal" at any scale beyond hunter gatherer tribes.

    Trump campaign pulls away from three target states after Harris surge
  • The numbers, any way you slice it, are 50/50 right now.

    Pennsylvania is anybody's game, Georgia is ever so slightly in Trump's favor but even winning Georgia won't get Harris over the line on its own if she loses Pennsylvania.

    This is terrifying, honestly.

    Trump campaign pulls away from three target states after Harris surge
  • Trump won Michigan by less then 10,000 votes in 2016. Tightest presidential outcome in the states history.

    And that was after Hillary both ignored and insulted the rust belt.

    Top Anti-Abortion Leader Is Telling Her Followers Not to Vote for Trump
  • The polls say otherwise.

    She REALLY needs to move the needle in Pennsylvania or magically overcome worse numbers in Georgia and some other state to have a chance in hell of hitting 270.

    It's shaping up to be a nail biter to the bitter end.

    God help us if SCOTUS chose to steal it for him like the 2000 election.

    Definitely not a dictator(ule)
  • Why would we move on from his admitting to what we all know, his goal is the end of our Republic.

    What the hell are you talking about, we should NOT move on, that's been the problem all along.

    Now, We Beat Trump.
  • That would be great, she's been a great governor.

    Only thing that could be better is a Whitmer/Harris ticket or even a Whitmer/Shapiro ticket.

    Lemons(?) of Lemmy, what is something that feels so obvious to you that you just get lowkey pissed at the world for not knowing?
  • Obviously you didn't read what I wrote, because it is not a construction.

    We are animals, we have two sexes. Those sexes are different physically, including brain development.

    Human genders are the typical manifestation of our sexual dimorphism. Atypical examples are why we've constructed the idea that gender and sex are different, to be socially inclusive to those few outliers.

  • I mean, entirely false, but ok.

    Gender is very much real, you just seem to have a false perception of what the word means.

    Most of us do very much have a gender, it is a very small minority who feels their gender does not match their sex, and smaller still are those who, like you apparently, feel no sense of gender at all.

    Being outside the common experience doesn't mean you get to disregard the common experience any more then we should disregard your experience.

    Men with 'toxic masculinity' are more likely to make sexual advances without consent, study finds
  • It's a terrible term for very real problem of toxic gender roles. I'm not sure if you meant to imply that these roles are only reenforced by other men, but that couldn't be further from the truth.

    Men and women reenforce these gender roles against men and boys, promoting the poor behavior.

    Fisker now expects to go bankrupt within 30 days
  • Competition is great, a company that can't produce a quality product and ships a CAR with beta level software that can't update OTA is NOT competition.

    The auto industry is highly unfavorable to startups, the competition you want will come from the old ICE OEMs.
