  • You actually think you're going to rise up and fight against your national army? How about fighting for a better democracy instead, like by getting rid of Gerrymandering, abolishing corporate lobbyists, adopting preferential voting etc

  • Oh no! I only got an education from my school and didn't get to fire a gun even ONCE! Let me go sit in a corner and cry myself to sleep with my secure, well paying job and free health care. By the way I'm in army reserves and get paid to shoot rifles and automatic guns at firing ranges. It's okay, I guess, but I wouldn't go if I weren't paid lol

  • I'm all for getting into old school tech, I even like to browse neocities.org on occasion just for the hit of nostalgia for the old web rings. I never got into newsgroups though, and I'm wondering what reasons you might use that instead of something like Lemmy, Mastodon etc?

    Apart from the piracy side, I know all about that already lol

    Since nobody likes calling it X, why don't we call the platform "ex-twitter"? That way it's technically true, and everybody knows what you're talking about.

  • "Someone could get the most votes, and not win!" McCarthy said at the time.. "So if you come in 3rd, you win. What? 'I got a lot of second votes, I got a lot of 3rd vote — what does that mean?'"

    I don't think it's the "Black areas" that are getting confused about how it works. Or perhaps he's just pretending to not understand? 🤔🤔

    If you think about it, Africans are the real "pure blooded" people, because they didn't interbreed with the Neanderthals like Europeans did after migrating out of Africa.
