  • While I’m not the OP you’re replying to I definitely think Harris is going to be unpopular. The problem isn’t winning over city democrats, it’s winning over Joe Schmo in Ohio and Western Pennsylvania. Those people are the ones I worry about whether they’ll vote for a minority female candidate and they’re unfortunately the ones whose vote counts. This late in the game, I think the best course of action would have been running some stale white guy that mid westerners could more easily swallow. Though time will only tell and November is quickly approaching.

    Also, is Harris’ politics popular… because last time I checked she was a former prosecutor and a lot of people here on Lemmy were upset about a “cop” being elected to office. She doesn’t seem to have an opinion/political belief.




  • Capitol Reef is the most underrated national park. Go early in the morning. Get fresh bread and pies made from wheat and fruits grown right in the park.

    Olympic NP is the most amazing.

    Death Valley… just pass. It’s hot. It’s a bowl. It’s sand. Be like Anakin.

    Joshua tree is dope, but try to go in the cooler months.

    For any of them in Utah, if you’re a coffee drinker I’d recommend bringing your own packed and ready. It can be difficult finding a good cup for a while…

    Glacier is easily the best we have in the country. If it was either seeing Yellowstone or Glacier I’d go Glacier.

    Our NPs are so amazing. After traveling to other countries NPs it makes me cherish how special our parks are and how much better they’re treated and looked after as the park system is well staffed and looked over by people that really care. Teddy Rosevelt is a national hero.



  • As stupid as this sounds, there is no irony is saying “no one is above the law” about an American in America while simultaneously saying the ICC and international law don’t apply/matter. In the US we have a legal system that everyone within our declared boundaries has to follow. The ICC and international law is something countries could/can sign for, and choose to follow as they please. In fact, the ICC issued a warrant for Vladimir Putin and several of the signatories (the largest being South Africa) simply said they wouldn’t follow the law and arrest him. It’s a piece of paper with no legal or military enforcement. Countries can simply choose to ignore the ICC and international law.






  • You’re not the target then and you shouldn’t have been in a wrangler. A wrangler is a body on frame, solid front and rear axel vehicle. It’s going to naturally ride like dog shit, and the materials on the interior are shit because they’re made to get dirty and be washed out (literally with a hose) and have the top off with the California sun beating on them 24/7. The usability is awful for the same reason. Everything is water resistant and built for off road use.

    Space… well that’s because it’s body on frame. They’ve always been awful at usable interior space due to that.

    Lastly, they’re expensive because literally no one else makes a body on frame SUV with a solid rear axel, let alone a solid front too. Those pieces also cost a ton to keep legally on the road and they have to purchase carbon credits just to certify them.
