    I mean yeah the right wing did claim a lot was in there that wasn’t, so that is partly true but even fact checkers don’t deny the part that I mentioned to act like she didn’t and to write it is disingenuous. That is like if Ivanka said she loves & supports her Father, but the left wing media took Trump’s comments about her out of context.

    The same disingenuous Democrats also loved to claim that Biden was against the genocide in Gaza, and that he was young & dynamic behind the scenes.

    I mean with all the sniffing of little girls, breast pinching, and his own daughter admitting at least the weird part in her diary about showers with her dad contributing to her hypersexualization at a young age… and seeing how Biden appeared to be taking orders from Netanyahu, this part is debatable.

    I understand where you’re coming from, but Democrats need progressives to win. If they leave Democrats, it will be Democrats that will follow them, not the other way around. I don’t think trying to emulate MAGA is such a great idea. I know there are lessons that can be learned there, but I am still confident that a new party with popular progressives & populist policies would do more than trying to change a broken party from within.

    The same Democrats that barely won the previous election by telling people not to focus on them but Trump. Imagine funding the murder of kids, ignoring the housing crisis & then thinking you could just pull out the previous playbook with a dementia patient, then anointing Kamala Cheney at the last minute.

    Truth there. I’m from a dark blue area yet city government here couldn’t act any different than if I lived in a dark red state. In some ways I actually think they are worse. All they have to do is put D next to their name & the voters will support them regardless of their actions.

    Its fine let them keep losing. I honestly don’t care anymore. At some point progressives like Bernie, AOC, etc. will finally wake up & realize they don’t need Democrats to win. You want to see people passionate about voting again then it is time to leave the establishment behind. Anyone remember Bernie’s crowds in 2016? It was obvious he was may more popular than Clinton having to pay Beyonce & Jay Z for people to show up at her events.

    I’m not so sure you’re to the getting ready to switch to Linux stage as you think you are. Also, cloning & moving drive partitions are pretty elementary concepts. Not that people shouldn’t help but many people on Linux don’t realize encouraging people to switch too soon, often results in that person actually hurting the Linux community because they had a relatively productive setup before & now everything sucks to them. Having a dual boot partition or drive is helpful but you should also have some strategies to switch back if needed as your primary OS until you feel more confident & productive.



  • Car dealerships in America are like legalized shell entities to protect manufacturers from liability and add an extra layer of corrupt in the middle. I really think people should spend more time reading their legal contracts, especially when buying a new car. Car salespeople can lie about pretty much anything & as long as you sign the agreement, there isn’t much you can do, and it almost certainly has an arbitration clause as well.
