  • What I mean is don't listen to anyone who says "polls show". Polls have been weaponized by every media outlet to back up whatever story they're trying to relay.

    Polls are only good for political strategists and only for forming actionable strategies. They don't capture true popular feelings about any subjects and completely eliminate room for subtleties and nuance in the debate.

    For example, why is she polling lower than Biden? Could it be because the VP role is traditionally one of someone who works in the background, so the general public has very little reason to think about her too often? How many times is she mentioned in headlines (successes or failures) compared to Biden and Trump? Who was polled and who did the polling - was there any accountability for bias one way or the other?

    Take all polls with a huge grain of salt.

  • That's an intriguing story. I don't think that makes him a gangster. More like something a common thief would do. That sounds like right out of a playbook of common street urchins in Paris or eastern Asia.

    Glad the state department told Kraft to shove it. Could you imagine an international standoff over a fucking billionaire's ring.

  • They can be involved. No one is taking their rights to vote away. You can't run for president until 35. You can't be a congressman until 25. No one says it denies younger folks their representation. Let older folks vote for who best represents their ideology and values, but it's time for upper limits for very obvious reasons.

  • It's not ageism to say that young people need their fair representation in politics. The median age of America is about 40. The median age of Congress is about 60. There is a very real concern that our leaders may not truly grasp or fully understand the issues of the younger generation.

    Not to mention the risk of death and health related issues is convergent with age. It can't be avoided, no matter how much people want to pretend it shouldn't be considered. 70+ is pushing it, 80+ is well beyond average male life expectancy. To hide behind "that's ageism" when anyone brings it up as valid concerns is to ignore the facts.

  • It helps with the pacing when they're separated. When it's all in the title, it reads like a 5 year old telling a joke and not realizing there needs to be some natural pauses in the telling. Putting the punchline in the body ensures the reader puts the pause in the correct spot.

  • It's not just for the comedy. Flooding the form with useless data wastes time and hopefully prevents them from finding any actionable reports from other fascists.

    The trick is to not just meme. Make it sound real, but use 100% false data
