They just have to give Kid Rock and Ted Nugent tenure .

He made this deal with the NATO secretary general Mark Rutte, who has literally no authority to give anything away on behalf of Denmark or Greenland.

Miller is a vicious little shit who has what fantasy authors would call “low cunning”. He knows very well that he will never be as influential as he is right now, and that his influence will likely die with Trump. So he’s speed running all his stuff.

There can’t possibly be enough coal miners for the electoral math to be that important. This feels more like a “cultural win” - sticking it to those tree lovers peddling scams like climate change, or whatever.

This type of shit is why I really do not understand why people want Gavin Newsom as the next presidential candidate.

It’s just pragmatism. He’s the type of non-MAGA candidate that the US could actually elect, should a fair election occur again .

I can’t wait for the ADL’s statement explaining how this is fine and not real antisemitism.

It’s also not true in a relevant way. In the abstract, on its own, sure. If a presidential candidate argued for less military spending during an election campaign they would be painted as weak , and trying to weaken American increasingly dangerous world. Probably conspiracy theories about them being a foreign agent. And they would either lose outright or at least pay a significant political price.

He’s acting exactly like a current established Democrat leader. He is proudly saying he doesn’t take money from PACs, except AIPAC is the exception and if you ask why you’re antisemitic. He cares about keeping the democratic unconditionally and uncritically 100 perfect behind Israel as his main policy goal, far more than any domestic concern. In that he has tons of company and is doing his job just fine.

The best Americans can do is an organized protest on a weekend that doesn’t affect the economy, ensuring that it can be safely ignored.

None of this matters when 2/3rds of potential voters either support this or don’t care.

Have ATC employees actually decided to stop showing up this week?

Usually quantum physics serves as a crank magnet for all kinds of generally leftist kookery, but Jan seems to want to reject it outright for similar reasons that you talk about above with irrational numbers.

I know this isn’t your point, but the non-political way to express a similar rejection of quantum theory was literally just Einstein saying “god does not play dice”, which he famously retracted.

Years ago I saw a page on that site about irrational numbers that was pure comedy. Basically they begrudgingly admit that irrational numbers might actually exist (whatever that means for numbers), but heavily implied that it’s a liberal plot of some kind stemming from moral relativism or whatever. Just insane ramblings.

Lol Marco Rubio still thinks he’s going to ass-kiss his way into the big chair.

All that means is that they’re going to do everything they can to rig the midterms.

You guys don’t want change you want you return to the status quo.

You have to win to change things bruh. If you can’t focus on that even a little and focus only on what you want in a perfect world , then it doesn’t matter you want because you’ll never win.

All else being equal a white man less than 65 who believe 95percent the same things as AOC will get at least 5 percent more votes just like that, which is the difference between winning and losing.

I mean this thread is about tech that was perfect from it’s inception to the point where it didn’t or barely improved. Nothing could be further from the truth, transistor tech has had literally trillions of dollars and millions of smart people’s careers poured into it, and semiconductor IC manufacturing is now the most complicated single activity that our species does.

They’ll start with MSNBC. People will complain but if they stay the course it will become the new normal. Other news networks will adjust their programming to avoid the same fate. Part of why the Kimmel thing failed was because it was indirect action - the threat was to not grant approval for the Nexstar merger, but the media and publishing backlash made them reinstate Kimmel.

If they start directly revoking licenses then the “kill chain” is basically 1 or 2 links long and the order coming right from Trump’s office.

Personally I think he could get away with it. Americans are still mostly too comfortable for the kind of action it would take to actually stop him.

He is banking on the extremely strong taboo in the US military against interfering in politics which has been established over generations. They will of course burn through that protection at a far faster rate than it was built, but they will likely still get away with this.

Don’t worry, Chuck Schumer will make a deal to prevent this while getting nothing in return.
