PROOF Democrat cities are completely burning down. Eating their neighbors with BBQ and getting high from their ashes? What will they stoop to next?


I think they are saying they would rather depend on software and hardware that they can more or less control rather than cloud services


Please. We need election reform.


Ah, an excuse to kill “Nazis”? You mean anybody? I get the sentiment, but how could we prevent it from being abused?


Not retroactively, but this would remove birthright citizenship for babies born in the future, after about 1 month from now, by my understanding.


I think it’s too early to call this a conspiracy. The timing might just be a coincidence, but it is pretty easy to make that connection and I hope there is an investigation by trustworthy people to follow up on this.


That is a comparatively slow rate of change, don’t you think so?


Can’t it be fixed?


People often segregate themselves into bubbles separated from others they oppose. I can say since the political affiliation is known from past elections, that has become a stronger factor when I am deliberating on which places I would want to live. I’m sure this is adding to the polarization, where people are gravitating to communities that more often reinforce their beliefs and give them fewer opportunities to challenge them.
How can we counter this polarizing force?


Probably shouldn’t say that
The Democratic candidate is chosen at the convention, which hasn’t happened yet. What would a legal contest even be based on?
From the article you linked to:
Election law expert Richard Hasen wrote that there is “no credence” to the notion that the Democratic Party could not legally replace Biden on the ticket, as he is not the nominee yet – the nominating process generally takes place during the Democratic National Convention.


That could be more an advantage with those on the left than it is a detriment for the bigots on the right or the middle. It is a valid point, though.


I hope you are happy helping the Republicans win


I think you are misunderstanding how the election system works. It is the Democrats vs Republicans and nothing else until a third party can get big enough to overtake one of the two and then it’s still just two major parties.
Save your energy for reforming the election system and then advocate for what you want. We have to be realistic here.


My take on the down votes is that it is dangerous to spread ideas about voting third party in a democracy with an election system that mechanically only supports two parties.
Even if you’re in a “safe” state, people from states that are more in the margins may hear the sentiment and want to participate out of principle. It makes the opposition more likely to win.
If we want the Democrats to win in the end, it’s safer to be pushing for engagement on all fronts. That’s what the Republicans are doing and they can actually be trusted to vote.


I’m not ready to encourage this because anybody can get pissed off for any reason. There is very little that a politician does that makes everybody happy.


Then turn it up to 11
What isn’t? Everything is growing, decaying, or changing in some way, honestly.
