Be careful what you comment here or you will be temporarily banned for 8000 days.

I really hope the AI hype dies off

You don’t have to do that. Just charge him with a felony. Texas I’m sure has laws disenfranchising felons, and if they don’t then they’re losing to Florida.

I somehow think that he got away lightly. I am not being punitive but I can’t imagine it going this well for someone else. At least give him 24 hours in county jail.

I respect this even if I don’t agree with it. If you believe voting for Harris is harm reduction then you have to and it is a moral imperative. So I do understand and empathize with people who are honest about how the Democrats are failing but still see critical issues like democracy, gender equality and rights, and the environment better handled by them.

However I believe this hope and faith is misplaced. But I realized this after 6 presidential elections, so I don’t dare to deny you your own experience and personal growth. In 2020 I still had hopes that the border detention will be over if we just get Trump and his racist goons out. The border camps are still here…

Somehow it feels like the government is on autopilot and the only thing elections change is the intensity.

I thought that was just them being Dutch.

I never defended Trump. In fact you will find that Trump is far less popular than Harris among Arab Americans and Muslim Americans. No Democratic presidential nominee in fact won a majority of white votes since LBJ, not even Clinton in 1992 and 1996. It is white people who mostly support Trump and Republicans. An insignificant minority of Arabs or Muslims not voting for Harris in Michigan or Pennsylvania won’t matter. I’m merely trying to communicate why genocide is a redline for many of us and the Democrats lost many of us. Again it is clear that the DNC isn’t alarmed by losing votes in an insignificant minority of Americans.

You are assuming too much about me too. I’m not Muslim or religious for example.

I’m just shocked that this is still up for debate. This year the weather has been erratic to say the least.

Worse even if Democrats win and there are no spoilers in the party (Mnuchin or Sinema), you are still only getting cap and trade which at one point was the Republican plan for climate change before they decided to go to full denialism.

Yes, but just one? By noon I am already on my third cup with two or three still left to be had over the afternoon and early evening.

We don’t deny their existence but we refuse to normalize it. Otherwise in total they are fewer than the population of Riyadh, not really a threat without US and Western support.

 

O'odham Woman Becomes Hero When Genocide Joe Comes to Town

By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Oct. 25, 2024

"In the #GilaRiver Indian Community today, Biden claimed to be issuing an apology to #NativeAmerican children who were victims of U.S. #BoardingSchools. His glory campaign was short-lived.

"As Biden spoke, an O'odham woman held up this sign: 'There Are Still Babies in Mass Graves. Your Apology Means Nothing!! #LandBack!'

"Calling out to Biden, she said, 'What about the people in #Gaza! What about the people in #Palestine?'

"'How can you apologize for a #genocide while actively committing a genocide in Palestine! #FreePalestine.'

"Security removed her."
