It’s amazing what these people will overlook for their single issue: abortion. Of course, this strain of religious grifters have long been entirely devoid of ethics. As far as ‘pro-life’ though, they’re giving Trump credit for something orchestrated by many other people.
Why do they make it sound like Jack Smith himself is attempting to do that?
He doesn’t need money for advertising that much since news outlets have been entirely unable to shut the fuck up about him and stop amplifying his messages for years. Hundreds of millions of free advertising in 2016 and they’re doing the same thing now.
My father has been using computers for 50 years and hasn’t seemed to really learn anything. His work had one of the first personal conouters, an Altair, and we had C64s and early DOS machines when I was a kid. He could do excel, word, general word processing, had spreadsheets back in the early days of Lotus… at this point he gets confused and frustrated by like, the CVS website. Doesn’t ask for help though, just keeps doing his knows what and getting angry about it, then when I try to help (like, “oh, your credit card number is entered wrong”) he just gets angry and says “this is a SIMPLE THING! I DONT NEED HELP!” Like, okay, you’ve been overlooking this error message on a website and acting pissed for 15 minutes, but whatever.
history | grep <word> and ! would blow his mind.
That was something I got tired of saying, about error messages, “what do the words on the screen say?”
When using computers became more mainstream in the late 90s I thought “phew, finally people will learn to use them and not act like it’s some arcane and nerdy thing they couldn’t possibly understand! They’ll have to figure it out for work and the average person will finally understand the basics like file system hierarchies, right click menus, switching between windows and…” nope. We entered the period of “monthly_report.pdf.exe” instead and then, mobile phones which have enabled people to use computers without learning anything about how they work at all.
Really big trend that year for Republicans to decide they can just ignore subpoenas. Meanwhile, these days Gym of Ohio, who ignored a subpoena in 2022, is threatening Fani Willis for not responding to subpoenas quickly enough.
Wow, imagine being so self important that you petitioned the Supreme Court for an emergency intervention to keep you from going to a 4 month sentence for a fairly ordinary situation.
People using the Pomodoro technique use apps like that. That’s usually 25 minutes, 5 minute break, repeated 4 times, then a 30 minute break. This is apparently a popular Android one but there are others for Windows, Chrome, MacOs, I assume Linux and more for Android as well.
That’s true, he’s a case study in poor ethics. Always good to know what’s going on out there.
Why would I think about Jake Paul?
It’s quite a giveaway to a lucky American business. I vote Google because then they’ll get bored with it and shut it down.
Thanks for the clarification. I think my attitude comes from being genuinely concerned about Trump plus weariness from talking to other people about this. Personally, I’m far from fanatical about Biden, and wish someone else was running, but the fact that he’s a competent adult and not a deranged, greedy narcissistic traitorous lunatic is a major factor for me. The Democratic Party does need major reforms, though it’s not nearly as diseased as the Republicans, and I can see where you’re coming from. This post does a better job of explaining the concept than others I’ve seen, though I still have the concerns I’ve mentioned before.
The only one that is active is the middle link.
And yeah, that person has a point very similar the same ones I’m making. For one, the ‘uncommitted’ thing wasn’t even a notion when ‘leftists’ started campaigning against Biden on Lemmy. Then, acting like people are going to bash Biden as a genocidal fascist and then all of sudden turn around ‘after the primaries’ and support him sounds like a really unlikely notion , like, how stupid do you think we are?. Let me rephrase that: I don’t believe many of the people spreading these thoughts will support Biden ever since they claim things like “both parties are fascists” (which is barely debatable) and also, the negative attention on Biden will continue to affect people’s opinions through the time of the general election.
Biden didn’t choose for Israel to do this, nor does he make 100% of US policy decisions, and it’s come at a very convenient time for his opponents to blame the entire situation on him. If he loses because of this single issue, keep in mind Ukraine is fucked, the EU is fucked, Central Americans in the US are fucked, anyone who depends on social welfare in the US is fucked, and that’s just the start. I’m Netanyahu would prefer Trump anyway, so he’ll be fine.
Yeah, but it makes no sense as Trump recently said “Israel should finish the job”. This type of activism is either disingenuous, ignorant or naive. Has nothing to do with being a ‘selfish prick’ but rather I’m just not an idiot. Helping Trump get elected won’t help the Palestinians, but it WILL hurt hundreds of millions of other people around the world.
I don’t believe the claim that “we’re just bashing Biden on this to influence Israel policy and we’ll stop after the primary”.
And “don’t intend to vote for fascism at all”… yep, so discourage people from voting for Biden entirely by basically saying “both sides are the same!!”. Claiming the Democrats are fascists is reducing all the differences Ds & Rs have to a single issue. So no wonder people would say what they say in the last frame since that type of argument could only result in helping get Trump elected. So best OP can do is post a stupid cartoon mocking critics.
Oh, just that - so you think invading Poland, France, Belgium and bombing the UK were good policies?
If you’re being called any of those things, it’s not due to the manipulative false narrative you’ve presented here. Nobody hears “Biden should change Israel policy” and says those things. It’s all the other bullshit such as… drumroll… manipulative false narratives in stupid memes.
I’d add you to a meme but I don’t post lame ass insulting memes about politics, sorry.
Trump paid for something, though? Maybe… at the least he surely demanded that women have abortions and and probably threatened them over it.
