Yeah, just the wording of the title is a huge red flag.
I’m curious if “faces” are really just faces or shoulders up where hairstyles and clothes give clues.
Like, an a adult that goes by Bob, Bobby, or Robert looks different. And people would subconsciously account for age and what names were popular.
A lot of shit goes on behind the scenes and sometimes the conscious brain doesn’t know and makes up it’s own reason for why it decided something.
But even without that stuff, Biden never had what Obama had in 08.
People travelled from all over, it was a huge deal and people were literally celebrating in the streets nationwide.
Some of that was because we getting rid of GW, but most of it was excitement about Obama.
In 2020 there wasn’t excitement from anyone, just relief.
2021 had very few people because of corona
Just another day of Biden supporters repeating claims trump supporters used to make.
Biden didn’t get elected because people wanted him to be president, he got elected because in the general he was the only option not named trump.
Expecting him to draw a crowd like 08 Obama is just ridiculous
Republicans pretending to be pro-worker while getting 25 million a month from a union crusher like Musk is about the easiest setup for Dems to talk about how bad the PAC system is…
But Dems like the money too much to stop it, or even admit it’s a problem except that core group of progressives
But a weather app on my phone has my exact GPS coordinates. Why can’t it tell me exactly when a rain cloud will be passing over my location?
Because they’ve never been able to do that…
When they say “50% chance of rain”, it doesn’t meant there’s a 50/50 chance it rains where you’re located
It’s that for the broadcast area, about half is gonna get rain.
When people say that, they mean a person who would have voted for trump. Instead voting rfk.
If you were never voting trump, you vote can’t be taken away because it was never voting for trump to begin with
It’s pretty common.
Most people think they’re the good guys, he probably had good intentions.
But who knows what played into his judgement? Article said he owned the whole block and neighbors hated him, was he a shitty landlord that was charging people to park on the street too?
And he’s inserting himself into the lives of people in incredibly stressful situations.
Like, it’s the other side of it. Lots of good people do evil shit because they’re backed into a corner. At the end of the day humans are just animals and with enough stress that’s how we act
Dude probably didn’t understand how desperate people could get. Which is the main takeaway, and the entire reason civilizations need safety nets. Desperate people are bad for everyone, so it benefits everyone when we guarantee basic needs are met.
It’s literally cheaper than how we’re currently handling it, lots of other reasons to do it too.
Article doesn’t really make him out to be a great guy…
So the 81 year old president has been lying about COVID since the debate?
Or are you saying the presidential doctor Biden picked is this incompetent they just ran a COVID test?
I mean. He did an interview right after the debate, he talked about an illness but gave like three conflicting answers, and none of them mentioned COVID.
“It’s pretty clear to us that the governor and the government have been misinformed,” Valeti said. “And all we’re asking for is a chance to have a direct conversation and say, ‘this is proven science, this is proven safety.’”
Why the fuck would you open any type of business in Florida that deals with anything coming close to science?
Like, no shit the state is going to randomly pass laws in direct opposition of scientific facts, they’ve been doing it for decades.
For one, Biden would have to willingly give up the nomination in order to release delegates already pledged to him.
Factually not true…
The DNC can rewrite the rules before the convention and nominate anyone they want.
As their lawyers have told judges, they’re a private organization that can name anyone as the candidate. That was their defense for accusations that they already rig primaries.
A second problem is the public doesn’t know any other Democrat nearly as well as they know Biden, and it would be difficult to introduce someone to the public at this late date without them being defined by Donald Trump, the Republicans and Fox News in the worst possible ways.
Literally anyone that becomes the Dem nominee will have nationwide name recognition in 24 hours.
The most common reason for voting Biden is “to stop trump” so any replacement shares the most important quality Dem voters want that Biden actually meets.
Like, sure, this would have been so much easier if we had an actual primary and the people closest to Biden hadn’t spent four years hiding him and lying about his mental capabilities. But they didn’t. They kept repeating it was too late for anyone except Biden.
They’re still saying it, but it’s still not true.
In 2020, scientists discovered a jellyfish-like parasite that doesn’t have a mitochondrial genome – the first multicellular organism ever found with such an absence. That means it doesn’t breathe; in fact, it lives its life completely free of oxygen dependency.
Way to bury the lede…
Motherfucker doesn’t even have a powerhouse of the cell…
It was done by Reagan in the 80s…
Not even exaggerating. They do these based on birth year, so changes are set decades in advance so they people getting fucked don’t get to vote on it
And in the last 40 years, no one’s never really did anything to fight it.
Like, it’s not a rachet, it doesn’t just go one way. We can lower it too.
But to afford to do so wed have to remove the cap on contributions and the wealthy wouldn’t want that.
6 months is stretching it.
But the pantry and freezer stays full. Like zombie survival type rationing I could probably go 6 months. But that all stays good forever, whatever I use I just re-up and put it at the back and move it all up.
Beats having to do home canning like I had to help with growing up tho lol.
2022, it wasn’t publicized much, so most still haven’t heard of it.
Would be a great rallying cry for young voters if Dems were trying to fight it and lower it back down after removing the cap.
But donors dont want that, so voters don’t get an option that will do it.
It’s generational too…
My mom had a very poor hillbilly childhood. My friends never understood why I have like 4-6 months worth of food in the pantry at all times instead of just buying as I eat.
Even in college when everyone was always broke, pantry just has to stay stocked. There always has to be a cushion.
I wouldn’t really call that food hoarding though, but it’s subjective
Oh for sure, the wealthy know all about this.
Despite everything they try to distract us with, it’s a class war and only one side has the energy after surviving to fight it.
The more normal people aware of it, the more progressives get elected, and the better our chances of living in a functional society again.
Here’s a general article, but there’s lots of academic studies available if you search:
https://www.psychologicalscience.org/observer/how-poverty-affects-the-brain-and-behavior
It doesn’t just have to be when young, poverty fucks your brain up because for the vast majority of human evolution, if you were hungry or didn’t have shelter, that was what you needed to focus on.
It’s Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.
If you don’t know what that is, that’s a good place to start. Then read up how the absence effects people.
The contribution limit was invented decades ago when wealth inequality wasn’t as bad of an issue
If we got rid of the cap, we’d have no problem finding it. And the people above the cap, just don’t need the money anyways.
They’re crab people now…
