Don’t be silly. They believe that the president would only have total immunity until they were impeached by Congress. So Biden would also have to execute anyone in Congress that would vote for impeachment. After that, he should be fine. Totally normal democracy in action.

It looks like this would apply to any item used to conceal one’s identity. So, it’s possible that all of those things could be included.

If someone is in a swing state? Sure, vote for whoever the Democrats put up. But I think it’s important to acknowledge that the Democrats are part of the problem here, not the solution. Do the Democrats want multiple parties and proper coalitions? They do not. They actively fight against those things. Anyone who blindly votes Democrat in any of the majority of states that are solidly red or blue is making the situation worse.

How to get a fascist on the ballot in the first place: keep voting for the conservative Democrat.

This article doesn’t have much info about what was said, but it does have a link to an article with the quote.

“We will immediately stop all of the pillaging and theft. Very simply: If you rob a store, you can fully expect to be shot as you are leaving that store,” he said Friday during a speech to California Republicans.

His comments drew applause from members of his party inside the Anaheim convention and he loudly said “shot” again for emphasis.

we call those crinkle-cut fries

Not anymore. How can we go back after realizing Ziggy Fries is an option?

Exactly. So I think it would have been more helpful to just jump to the explanation. Just say “But protests are meant to be disruptive because that is how they draw attention to the issue being protested.” There is no need to question the knowledge of the commenter. Just present the information that you think they don’t have. Even if the person you’re replying to isn’t interested, the info will be there for others and may lead to more conversation.

do you know how protests work

This does not sound like an honest attempt at communication. Why would you even ask this unless you thought the person did not know? Yet you don’t offer any explanation of how you think protests work that might actually create a conversation. It may not be what you intended, but I interpreted your question as nothing more than a personal insult to the person who made the original comment. The equivalent of replying, “you don’t know what you’re talking about.” That sort of reply might be true, and I would probably even agree with it in the comment you linked, but it’s still not helpful in any way and kind of makes you seem like a jerk looking for an argument. So, to answer your question, I will often downvote a comment like this because it does nothing to make a positive contribution, and I would likely not explain why because I try to limit my interactions with people who are acting like argumentative jerks.

Those behind this campaign simply cannot accept that a first-generation Latino American from humble beginnings could rise to be a U.S. Senator and serve with honor and distinction. Even worse, they see me as an obstacle in the way of their broader political goals

I get that you have to pretend that you’re innocent, but this is the same race-baiting conspiracy bullshit that comes out of the right-wing wackos. Fuck this guy.

He owns his own business and is doing this by choice. They don’t go into numbers, but the fact that the article is titled “The Affluent Homeless” makes me think he’s not struggling. The guy is atypical, but the people saying he’s a socialist or he’s being crushed by capitalism are reading their own politics into this.

And none of the top 9 states with the highest median income are right to work.

S - KEY - U - M - BAG

I think the article is fine. It’s just the reality that makes no sense. A bunch of social media celebrities agreed to join an esports league where the celebrities would manage the teams. People could buy a pass for each celebrity that would let them vote on team decisions and give them other benefits. The company selling the passes used blockchain authentication for them. They were also, separately, involved in NFTs. People saw blockchain and NFT and thought “wait a minute, the passes are NFTs? Aren’t NFTs a big scam? These passes are a scam!” Then the celebrities saw the outrage and said “What?! No one told me there would be crypto-blockchain-NFTs!” They then dropped out of the league and it was indefinitely postponed. Unless by “actual problem” you meant something that was meaningful in anyway to anyone not directly involved in this nonsense. In that case, no, there was none of that.

“Quality of Life” was a category on the survey, although it was only one of ten. Additionally, they were mostly asking the people who were benefitting the most from their society:

a survey of over 17,000 people from 36 countries – including business leaders, middle-class or higher college-educated individuals and “nationally representative” citizens of each country

So I imagine there were a lot of folks who disagreed with the final rankings, but their opinions were mostly considered irrelevant.

Totally disingenuous. He’s just being a carny. Talk shit about Shelbyville when you’re in Springfield and talk shit about Springfield when you’re in Shelbyville.

You had a major league scumbag come from Clay County.

I’m not sure obvious pandering and turning Floridians against each other is the best solution.
