You know how matter changes from solid to liquid to gas at certain points? I believe there are phase changes in ecology and environmental habitability and sometimes things seem fine and suddenly they aren’t.

At the risk of sounding prejudiced and offensive, the norse are a very smart and sexy group of people, so perhaps I am wrong in not accepting your illogical and sexy perspective?

I just think 1 variable of change is not the correct barometer of “how close are we to the ecological abyss?”

I’ve never listened to Marjorie Taylor-Greene.

Although I know there are racist conspiracy theories, it doesn’t mean all conspiracy theories are racist.

You have to get past the racism and flat-earthers to get to the REAL good conspiracy theories. Some of them end of being false, but some seem to be true. Either way they become more interesting.

Any Havanna Syndrome inflicted on Biden would likely be done by Russia and would be unrelated to Jewish people. Russia is the one with the most to gain from Biden losing, especially since the conspiracy theory is Trump is a Russian agent.

What is your proof that it’s not space lasers?

Why is this shocking? Havana Syndrome is blatantly real.

Seems possible.

I admire your intelligence.

Wild response

The idea od suggesting following any prior tactics of Andrew Jackson is revolting, as cool as your response is

If there were ever a time for Dark Brandon to emerge, this would be it!

Biden doesn’t have the balls to do this. It would be cool as heck if he did.

Die mart. I would be curious to know if the title was just beijg edgy.

Your writing style and intelligence remind me of someone I used to know…

who I fell in love with. He was very verbally intelligent and had brown eyes. I still fantasize about fleeing nuclear war and accidentally bumping into him in another country in which he has fewer romantic options due to many people affected by the war. It’s sort of a warped fantasy on many levels.

I’m nearly certain you aren’t him because of the motorcycle post. And you use Firefox and he used Macs. He probably uses Safari or whatever stupid closed-source browser comes with those systems. I never understood Macs. I should have just bought one and pretended to like it, but I doubt it would have reeled him in. I was naive back when I met him and a Windows user, so also incredibly stupid. Even if I had used Linux back when I met him, or morally caved and pretended to like Macs, he probably still wouldn’t have found me to be an appealing option, hence the fantasy of nuclear war and encountering him in a limited options situation. “I am so sad there are so few survivors from this terrible war,” I would lie, feigning dismay. (It’s a really fucked up fantasy.) You have a similar linguistic style as he did.

In any case, your logic is sort of flawed because under a game theory perspective, my vote will not matter. I am not in a swing state. Game theory looks at things from a hyper-logical decision-tree and probabalistic perspective, and no matter what I do in this situation the outcome is the same. What you wrote sounded clever, but is technically wrong.

If you mean Biden is the least cruel choice, I don’t know if you are right. Trump went to Wharton and likes tall buildings and avoiding large unneeded costs. (I’m bracing myself to be inundated with down-votes.) Trump does not show a lot of empathy to minorities, but he’s cheap. I could see him using diplomacy to end things more quickly than Biden through fake flattery, and even if there was a Potemkin village aspect to his negotiation that was ethically one-dimensional, results are results. At the same time, I don’t think Trump has any pesky mirror neurons to affect how he feels regarding suffering and death, so any success would be secondary to his self-absorption, which could still be effecacious.

But I also believe Trump is in the pocket of Putin, which could make nuclear war less likely, although he would cede to every Putin demand. This of course would wreck my fantasy of having to flee nuclear war and bumping into the brown eyed guy I’m in love with in a strange country… For various extremely convoluted reasons, randomly calling him or emailing him may not be effective. Basically many romantic rivals would have to no longer exist as a result of some apocalyptic hellscape for me to have a chance. What would be dystopia to some would be my only chance… at victory.

Ultimately I could never vote for Trump because of how he treats people. I don’t want to normalize trash culture, even rich white trash culture. I just don’t know if I would vote for Biden as a symbolic gesture. He’s great to trans people but his presidency is part of incredible cruelty and I am not sure I want to add my meaningless rubber stamp to what is going on, as though kindness to LGBT people offers some sort of political absolution for complex and unseen atrocities. I adhere to the political system as it exists with its corruption out of fear, not loyalty, and voting at all seems to be supporting something corrupt and rotten. I believe in democracy, but I can’t change the mind of everyone. In a different world in which I had ended up less lonely, I could have had the strength to change minds with words, but as it stands any voting just seems like complicity.

It’s shockijg to me this was so downvoted.

Why is it political that a child civilian in a war zone without access to good water is vulnerable?

Remember, if youre from Florida, don’t say climate change when discussing this… or else!

The packages in Debian are really old. It’s awful.

I was looking at my xzutils package the other month. “So outdated,” I thought, envying the cool hip trendy Arch users.

Are those computers running windows? That’s a very inaccurate AI.

The most vulnerable would probably be some kid in Gaza without access to clean water.

But I haven’t met them.

Can I vote for them and, if so, who do I choose?

He almost certainly has a great team doing a lot. Biden isn’t perfect but knows how to delegate. He doesn’t need to be that lucid if he can delegate well. He still may not be reelectable.

Others are occluding discourse by banning discussion as misinformation to control all narratives, then acting as though conspiracy theorists weren’t correct. This narrative control is from an elite whose lies are vast enough to occlude the sun.

It’s true. Her stubbornness leading to a conservative supermajority is what her legacy is now, instead of her trailblazing. Maybe one day when trans people aren’t considered fourth class citizens and we live in a better world, people will go back to remembering her trailblazing. She made a terrible gamble due to a lack of fear, and it was selfish or naive.

It’s hard being intelligent enough to see the problems but lack the political will power and opportunity to change them.

I believe you. I think Trump has a very good chance of winning and the result could be conflict among different states or groups within them. Unless the conspiracy theorists are right and the Gavin/Kamala ticket is already selected for the ballot and the win. But it seems likely Trump will win. The upper classes have engaged in price gouging because a Democrat was in office, Biden never called them out on it in aggressive way because he lacked the aggressive nature and rage and gall to do it, and an incredible number of people are feeling stressed out by price changes. There are also many swing voters unhappy with immigration policies and think they are too mild. Between the two issues, Biden would lose even if he did seem energetic and lucid.

Do you think it’s bad enough that it makes sense to flee the US? And to where would one even flee? There are wars in Eastern Europe, it’s not even clear Western Europe is safe. I have always though Trump was likely in the pocket of Russia or an actual Russian Spy, so when Trump wins he will unequivocally support Putin, which will be a disaster because Western Europe can’t stand up to the evil of Putin and Trump alone… especially not when there are Chinese and Saudi alliances that Putin has been working on.

It’s terrible but the best option is probably for Biden to escalate the war now, which he is unlikely to do since he’s sort of become a bit of a hippy. Putin sees Biden’s hippy weakness as well. If Trump is a Russian spy, the US intel agencies likely know and have to decide whether to do something to protect the country, even something that some might seem nefarious.

It’s a terrible situation and mostly a distraction from the environmental catastrophy on the horizon.

Do you think it makes sense to leave the US now? I am not that attached to anything and could go anywhere. I am white but don’t like bigots, which may impact my options.
