    And politics is pagentry. Liberals believe strongly in the rituals of the state, and the respect of “the office”. It almost never matters who the shitbag was who held the office, for them a part of the system is playing your role and not deviating from the script.

    This conveys nothing but the fact that she’s following the script of political society.

    There are other reasons to dislike Harris. Better reasons. Reasons founded on something other than the want for people to ignore the established customs of the space they’re inhabiting.

    But I might be wrong; I feel 70% certain about this one.

    You should downgrade your certainty. By a lot.

    The expansion is an expansion of space, and therefore explicitly increases the distance between galaxies. It does not, and cannot increase the speed at whoicj those galaxies travel through that space.

    Right now, there are galaxies moving away from us at rates higher than the speed of light, a thing which is physically not possible if the expansion is due to an acceleration of the galaxies themselves.

    You’ve misunderstood things completely backwards.

    I don’t know, this is starting to sound like a separate discussion with separate issues, and as a result it feels like goalpost moving.

    The issue with women’s fantasy armour has long been that it exists for the Male Gaze, as a trope that is propagated by men for the purpose of titilizing men. It’s objectifying the female form, and doing so in a way that does not include women in the discussion at all.

    The second image, instead of being a continuation of that, just feels like fashion, and complaints about it land as “no one has ever cared about aesthetics in a suit of armour” which is a totally false take and indefensible platform.


  • In most countries you need to be a party member to engage in internal party politics. The idea that the heneral public makes direct choices for private political organizations is, honestly, kind of weird.

    But also, which states require you to be an actual card-carrying member to participate in the primary? I was under the impression that most merely required that you register with the electoral office as a party supporter.

    Being a “registered X” is very different from being “a member of X”. Members get to do things like go to convemtions where party policy is discussed and voted on. Members get to vie for party nomination. They’re part of the internal machinery of the party.

    Yhey’re not just voters with a party banner.
