One of those exceptions is to be 65 years or older. Guess who that disproportionately benefits?

The path to a viable third party presidential candidate has to pass through the down ballot races. If you want (for example) a future green party or libertarian president, you need a bunch of governors, senators, and representatives first.

Third parties struggle to get on presidential ballots because they are ineffectual on a national scale. They’re ineffective on a national scale because they barely exist in between presidential elections.

Expecting to change the political landscape from the top down is misguided and unrealistic.

What’s a tortoise?

YouTube is a great experience with a paid subscription. It’s the streaming service I use the most and I find the monthly cost to be worth the content I watch there. It’s also an even more effective way to fight the disruptive influence advertising has on our online communities and helps fund the creators on the platform that I enjoy.

Everyone should make their own choices, I’m just highlighting one of those choices that works well for me.

We prefer the term “Cardbordeaux”

I spent a decade as a full time Tcl developer and even I don’t use fossil.

Profit is created from the output of productive labor. The amount of profit varies depending on the efficiency of the market and the company.

Companies are force multipliers for labor. The company’s profit comes from that force mulitplication, not by withholding profit from the worker who generated it.

Profit can only be made by exploiting labour. There can’t be any other way

This is a bad take and suffers from overly-simplistic thinking. Corporations are force multipliers for labor and the economic value of your labor is increased by joining forces with others.

Another way to look at this is that you’ve linked to an article that necessarily lacks the entire last eight years of context necessary to discuss an article written in 2024. Please, join the rest of us in our current reality if you want to discuss what’s happening now.

The triangle of rhetoric is appeal to authority, appeal to emotion, appeal to logic. They don’t accept any of it thay didn’t come from within thier social group so there is no convinving them and that is why Tronald Dump can say he could shoot somebody on 5th avenue and have them call it fake news despite being recorded.

This is spot on. Delve into the inevitable “Politics and Religion” section of any old school web forum for white guy hobbies and nine times out of ten it’s going to be knee deep in a loud circle jerk consisting of these exact guys whipped into a frenzy over nothing. Look, but don’t touch, it’s like a buzz saw in there.

. . . increasing inequality, fueling injustice, destroying the planet, etc.

This is such an astute and accurate description of crypto and mining. You are a textbook example of projection.

You can literally die at any second no matter what your age. That doesn’t seem like a well-considered criterion.

You’re acting weird

DMCA was designed to prevent intellectual property infringement, not as a censorship tool.

I wanted the gay dude who makes Fox News his bitch.

Still pretty fucking hyped to vote, either way.

What makes the most sense is ignoring your fallacious false choice.

It doesn’t even make sense as a conspiracy. I hope Biden lives a long, calm life in retirement. But if he did die right now it would be a huge boost to Harris who would now be running for re-election as an incumbent.

Plus, all those dorky “45/47” red hats suddenly become obsolete as Harris is sworn in as the 47th President.

And now guyrocket is too embarrassed to admit they thought they were making a funny joke and didn’t realize they were 32 years too late to the punchline.

Just to be clear, the “reason” here is that your expectations are not correctly aligned with the project goals.

Full totality here on a mostly cloudy day. We did get a few peeks of the sun, but mostly it just got dark and cold for 3 minutes.
