Tik Tok and all the rest — something like 50% of users aged 18-29 use it to catch up on politics — are much flashier than Frontline or 60 Minutes, let...

One of the better takes I’ve read: https://apple.news/AEToGjqpLR4aQxsRScVmgVA Absolutely true. But…there’s still a majority in this country that isn’t...

Yeah, there’s really no parity. Both parties are bought by corporations and are comprised of wealthy people educated at Ivy Leagues, generally — but a...

So the teenage girl-screwing creep is out of the mix — oh, what high standards the GOP has!

Looks like Trump will get under 50%. Hillary did better than he has this time in the popular vote, winning by more. So much for a landslide and a mand...

Case in point.

:up: Very true— although liberal leaning establishment media go right along with most of it too. The “border crisis” especially. There is no border cr...

Amazing to watching the GOP manufacture issues by taking non-problems and statistically insignificant events and blowing them up into a “crisis,” and ...

That’s it, really. It’s strange— because they’ve come to be convinced that these services, which other countries have, is unaffordable, or will raise ...

On the other hand, we’ll make it through it. The damage to the environment is the worst part, because we’re out of time already and see the damages al...

No he isn’t. Which is the point. His ideas are good and popular— separating him from these proposals and saying he’s somehow too far left is absurd. B...

‘Fossil Fuels Are Still Winning’: Global Emissions Head for a Record

They’re not liars or delusional. The claim is that what is delusional is the belief that you can change sexes. I’ve seen no convincing evidence to cou...

At this point the hope is that technology advances so quickly and cheaply that there’s little excuse to go backwards. I see it happening with heat pum...

1) Harris was a crap candidate. 2) Republicans have a more effective propaganda machine. That’s all this was.
November 10, 2024 at 14:50
Yep, that’s it. Nailed it. Run along now.
November 09, 2024 at 05:41
Nope. But that aside, if you’re so dense that after 100s of pages on the Israeli thread you still don’t understand why there would be more outrage and...
November 09, 2024 at 05:20
Yeah because it can’t be that college kids don’t like genocide. The 60s protests were USSR too, etc. typical rationale for delusional apologists of ge...
November 09, 2024 at 04:45
Well it will accelerate emissions, yes. It’ll send a poor message to the world, and will generally be taking us backwards in myriad ways when we’re al...

I don’t see anything significantly changing— things will remain the same crappy situation for most people. There’s a lot of hysterics, but the most da...

Like I said— probably Chinese communists.
November 09, 2024 at 01:51
:rofl: Yes yes, they’re all anti-America. Probably a Red China conspiracy. Back to bed now grandpa.
November 08, 2024 at 22:48
Exactly. Turns out sending billions to aid a genocide isn’t as popular as zionist imbeciles think it is.
November 08, 2024 at 22:39
:rofl:
November 08, 2024 at 22:38
As I’ve said before, the most moronic of analysts will show up claiming that Harris didn’t go far right enough. They’ll act as if moving left is unpop...
November 08, 2024 at 22:37
Go back to the thread where you cheer a genocide— your delusions are irrelevant here. Yep. But don’t tell that to genocide apologists, because it’s an...
November 08, 2024 at 22:33
Trump got roughly the same number of votes this year that he did in 2020– about 74 million. Harris got about 10-11 million less than Biden in 2020. Th...
November 08, 2024 at 18:19
So about all that voter fraud…. Haven’t heard a word about it. Guess the democrats “forgot” to steal this one. :lol:
November 08, 2024 at 16:35
What if it’s just because Harris sucked as a candidate, was never voted on to be the nominee, ran towards the right and away from Bernie, couldn’t tal...

November 06, 2024 at 22:51
Yep. Bernie would have won, in 2016, in 2020, in 2024. But the DNC made sure that didn’t happen. So this outcome isn’t surprising— which is why I call...

Yeah, most people were I think. But this scenario wasn’t outside possibility— just sucks when it actually happens.
