Every election is held on a Tuesday. Most of those people cannot afford to take a day off of work because capitalism has fucked them over so badly.

Republicans have also stymied any attempts to turn election day into a national holiday specifically for this reason.

Because of the electoral college, getting out to vote when you otherwise wouldn’t have is almost entirely useless in most states as the party most states will side with is basically a forgone conclusion.

On top of that, the Republican party has spent decades making it deliberately difficult to vote by limiting the number of polling places, as well as limiting mail in voting.

The Democratic party on the other hand refuses to attempt radical economic upheaval that poorer US citizens desperately need because Democrats are still the “moderate” party that is in the pocket of billionaires.

The Republicans routinely promise radical actions that they say will make things better for everyone. They’re lying of course, but it’s hard to be exceptionally poor, have no access to health care and vote for the party that is not advocating radical actions on your behalf.

Depends on what you’re looking for. I’m guessing you’re more of neophyte to Linux or you probably wouldn’t be asking.

I always recommend Linux Mint to newbies. It’s very user friendly (more so than windows 11 imo), and it’s a spin off of Ubuntu, so it’s got great support behind it.

Ubuntu itself is a spin off of a distro called Debian, so if you ever have problems with Linux Mint and you can’t find an answer on the very helpful Linux Mint forums, you could always search for your answer on Ubuntu’s forums, or Debian’s.

Arch based distros are better for newer hardware because it’s bleeding edge, but that laptop looks so old that you probably wouldn’t need anything like that.

Centrist Democrat politicians, sure. When they polled Centrist Democrat voters, they still supported it more often than not.

leading to more dangerous interactions everywhere.

pretty sure that’s the point.

A ton of the links on that website are dead. Is there more up to date information anywhere?

What happened?

For the uninitiated:

TLDR: It’s a disturbing and bizarre quote about a sexual dream he had about his grandmother.

I have no idea what prompted this man to reveal this information to anybody but his shrink and his priest.

This may be a really dumb question, but why is there spam on the table? Not all Jewish people observe the no eating pork thing, but why specifically put it in the comic strip?

I believe this is referring to specific extremely deplorable organizations such as 764

MASSIVE trigger warning as these groups commit the worst acts of depravity and cruelty that humans are capable of.

Wikipedia is built on people vociferously disagreeing and bringing sources to make the information presented ever more credible and unbiased.

Yeah, that’s why they are upset with it.

What’s your basis for believing that it’s going to be linear? Was there a leak or something?

Shhhh… the big money donors might hear you.

Doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t try though.

“Empathy” is what the right completely lacks, and it’s what Democrats have begun abandoning because it’s not in vogue. However, empathy is the one thing that helps us unite across boundaries that the right tries to convince us are unsurpassable. Empathy is what makes us strong.

I get that being angry is easier than being productive, but we really need to be productive right now, and writing off large groups of people because of their perceived failings is not helping.

Most of the people being sent to these camps are going to be undocumented, so they couldn’t have voted in the election if they tried.

Nobody deserves this. These people were suckered by a conman who has decades of experience conning people. That doesn’t warrant a death sentence or even imprisonment.

If a successful coalition is to be formed, it has to be made up of former Trump voters. We won’t have the numbers otherwise.

Cops are worse.

unless you’re trying to build death trap, concentration camp housing for them as well.

Just you wait, I’m sure that’s in the works too.
