As a PhD who has tried doing home improvement projects, it’s the most believable thing in the film.
“Liberal” arbitrarily changes meaning depending on who they want to dunk on today.
They are trolls. Ignore them.
If I were president I would shut the hell up about it while campaigning, then PARDON EVERYONE ON FEDERAL DEATH ROW FOR THE DURATION OF MY ENTIRE ADMINISTRATION and let the lawyers argue after 4 or 8 years whether resuming executions would have become “unusual punishment”.
Make me proud Kamala. You can do it.
It’s not really “established” becaue there isnt any formal body declaring what names different voting systems have.
That is the most pompous way to say “I have never heard of political science”.
Are you unclear about what recognition other demcracies give to parties, how there is no prize for 2nd place in America, or why that lack of such a prize gives rise to a two-party system?
This is the most pompous way to say “I am unaware that lots of countries on this planet have district based systems”.
it’s established terminology. I’m sure you have feelings about the term, but I’m not really invested in them either way.
I’m not sure what you are referring to
It didn’t, but this one did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfQij4aQq1k
Thanks for the surprise J-Law early in the morning! I’m a big fan.
Many countries have first-past-the-post elections, and there usually we don’t see the mortal lock of the two major party like we see in the U.S.
In the UK for example there are regional parties (SNP, DUP, etc) and lib Dems/greens that win seats and send people to Westminster.
The main problem as far as I can see is that campaigning in the US is very expensive, and third parties have problems raising the cash needed to make a dent in elections for Congress, let alone statewide office.
To frame it in economic terms, it’s a market with a high barrier to entry that has evolved a duopoly. In that aspect it’s not too dissimilar to cable companies etc.
TLDR: Fuck citizens united
… or they don’t really have the power to deliver their “base” vote anyway.
This press release stinks like one of those “I must discover where my people are going so that I can lead them” schticks.
I got up to judo brown belt as a teen and it has saved my ass countless times. Not in fights, but in silly ass falls. Having good instincts when falling is a lifesaver.
China is so salty that karate can’t survive the age of the Internet they are blackballing it’s critics.
Karate is Japanese, mr Sensei sir.
It’s a sport. It’s not meaningfully more useful than other sports.
If you want something that’s genuinely useful in a confrontation, give up the fantasy of beating people up. Every time you fight you run a very real risk of incurring permanent harm or worse. Instead, sign up for track and learn and practice how to run away really fast.
TLDR: fighting not good. Not fighting, good.
He does recycle actual Russian propaganda though. If you call him out on it, he deletes it and pretends it never happened. I caught him out three times.
Herr Hitler only wants Sudetia, Alsace and the Polish corridor.
We’ve played this game before.
You can kind of just upload it and hope for the best.
Oh yeah. That’s great advice. That never goes wrong!
Oh wait. It’s not.
Fair use has enumerated criteria. Do you meet them?
Why would you be allowed to share copyrighted works without a license from the rights holder that gives you that right?
The random capitals really sell it.
Problem: She’s not advocating for continued genocide
Have you seen the vassal state comment up thread? He thinks the US has absolute control over Israel and that the war in Gaza is an expression of Biden and Harris’ will.
This is not a productive conversation.
It means whatever you want it to mean.
