I love that paranoia and xenophobia. As if a corrupt domestic company is somehow magically better than a corrupt international company.

It's been quite obvious over the past few years that yes there's potentially some risk of foreign countries trying to install spy code, but actually that doesn't seem to happen very often, and what's much more damaging to our society are large corporations that use their power to screw over the general public, and most of these large corporations are domestic.

Even if everything you wrote is true, none of it applies to the United States because we have the electoral college. Sorry, but it's not Europe, and we have our own weird system.

First, don't panic. Harris and her staff, and Democrats around the country, they have planned for many shady actions on Trump's part. Details are scarce because they don't want Trump staff to have a heads up.

And then everything depends on the details.

But remember, anything that looks like a coup d'etat could easily get the military or spy agencies involved. And if they move, it doesn't matter what SCOTUS says. As a result, it's very hard to predict what would happen in various extra dramatic situations. There is no precedent; precedent wouldn't mean anything anyway.

Why would they waste time trying to explain? The problem lies with your understanding, not their actions.

But look, I've voted third party a lot, and I could tell you what other activities I do to make the world a better place. If I did, would you stop saying this kind of thing in the future? Do you promise?

Not clear that Trump ever had that lead. Lots of doctored numbers in 2022 and 2024. But I don't expect Fortune to cover that well.

Raising questions? No. The only question is how far, how much, how many people will die.

Just like you, right? Just like all of us who are posting instead of campaigning.

Prison? ...No. You're just wrong. That's bad no matter what.

That's not what the Supreme Court said, though. Only official acts have absolute immunity. Murder is not usually an official act.

And as always, if you're talking about a coup d'etat, the question is if the military or spy agencies will kill you before, during, or after it. When the rule of law is out the window, you must expect physical violence.

Also immediately redefine income more broadly. Tax law says it's one narrow thing, but in reality a lot of money comes in. Let the law march reality.

And this story itself is a weak attempt to undercut Democrat voting. We all know what mistakes were made when, and we all know that people will blame others if they need to. That's old news. The obvious reason to report on it right now is as clickbait, which has the obvious side effect of discouraging potential voters.

I also think that Biden's comment can only help her. She's trying to unify people, and he isn't. It's hard to believe there's anyone out there who will change their vote, or potentially stay home, because he's trash talking.

So now I'm pointing a finger at The Hill, and the cycle continues.___

I feel there's a potential suicide joke here, but it would probably end up in bad taste.

I have a question for you that needs answering first. Offensive to whom?

Right right and many of the posts that we've seen here over the past 3 months forget about that key point, which is just an insult to the majority of voters in the United States.

And that's how the Democrats can lose political support. That's how they can alienate potential allies.

I understand your feelings, and sometimes I feel the same way. But what you didn't tell us is the steps you've taken to make life better for people in Palestine and neighboring countries who are dying now.

If you want to argue that Harris is the lesser of two evils and that you're also working to prevent her from being as evil as she has been in the past, you actually have to say that. Or don't say it, and we'll assume that you're doing nothing because you don't care, and the future is going to be just like the past, which is not acceptable.

I wish that more people could see that there aren't two sides. Neither side is on your side, nobody is on your side, and you can think you're on their side but it just doesn't work that way.

all they have to do is point out that they don't live in a swing state and that's it, there's nothing else to say, they just made a strong case and you have no rebuttal

lol

What a terrible graph. You don't know if the numbers are good or bad at a passing glance.

You want to trust him after what happened in Ukraine? Are you out of your mind? And he's admitted that he chats with Putin on a regular basis.

I think you answered your own question. If taking drugs actually makes you a better person, of course it's OK. That's true for both physical and mental considerations.

But look, you put everything into one definition. What is "better", who decides, and how do they decide? If you don't have anywhere to go, you probably won't get there. Or maybe you will get there but you won't realize it.

There is much debate on all kinds of drugs, but I can tell you that some of my friends have had various experiences that are relevant. For several friends, acid or shrooms helped them deal with some harsh trauma. For several other friends, various uppers helped them handle ADHD relatively effectively. But of course we all have different problems and goals, so the burden is right back on you to figure out what you want to do. There's no way around this basic fact of life.
