Same lol
Between that and the random shit it has listed as what I get ads for…it isn’t a whole lot. I spend most of time looking up highly specific things on Wikipedia or out of immediate utility, so I suppose I’m just not that interesting…also ublock origin ftw
Yeah, I hate that I have to compromise on things, but when it comes down to it, I’d rather have more rights and have to watch Palestinians die than have fewer rights and have to watch Palestinians die.
Its a fucked situation anyway you slice it, but there it is.
MAGA: “Migrants are burning down cities all the time (somehow), and injecting bleach stops coronavirus!”
(So-called) BlueMAGA: “I dislike some of Biden’s policies and his response to Gaza, but I want someone responsible in charge.”
anticolonialist: “I literally cannot tell the difference!”
Meanwhile, I’m over here unable to find an IT job :')
I think the deal is more “My family is safe and healthy and that is important to me” over “wow I don’t care at all about dead foreign kids.”
In a 2-party system, sometimes that’s the best you can get… and frankly, I give more of a shit about myself and my friends/family who would be much worse off under Republicans than Democrats, enough that if I have to id vote Democrat every time until the immediate threat of Republicans is dealt with.
And again, because you just don’t seem to get it, Republicans have an even worse track record on the middle east lol. (Not intended as a whataboutism - more as an explanation that the two-party system sucks, and how not voting for one effectively means the other wins)
Ah gotcha
You thinking of Vanced? Revanced is updated pretty regularly
Oh yeah, now it’s all pretty standardized with like the same screws for everything.
Its no longer quite as silly with the specific steps to follow, but god, is it boring as all hell to work with too lol
I worked on mostly Chromebook repairs for 6 months last year, and I found it to be pretty straightforward as well from a hardware standpoint…especially when there was no point in doing most repairs because it would cost more than just getting a new one.
For any OS issues, we’d simply take a flash drive and reinstall it from scratch. It’s definitely gotten easier, but holy crap could it be slow as hell lol
Between that and how poor the search function is. “IT Support” shouldn’t be bringing up car mechanic jobs…
Yup. Between all the time checking for legitimacy and evaluating the company, it’s a huge pain in the ass to look for jobs all day…and even when you find one you enter the same information over and over because autofill from resume doesn’t work…
Never forget the way the human brain works, with the more common interpretation being: “it takes 7 instances of positive things to outweigh 1 negative.”
For my part I haven’t really noticed any difference, but I only infrequently comment!
I love the big sweeping generalizations you make; it really shows an utter lack of understanding reality. Keep up the purity tests so the left can’t ever get anywhere because we are too busy infighting I guess
It all rolls back to the same problem in the end:
The dems don’t need to care until the Republicans stop being utter garbage, or enough of the population forces them to reconsider at once. We are. ot there yet so the best course of action is to aid the party that won’t take away your rights to vote.
Centrist Democrats right now don’t need to accept tradeoffs because they are needed atm. As demographics shift, eventually, things will change as they must.
As for accepting genocide…well, if I had to choose between my own safety and someone else’s, I know where I’d stand…

They did this…it passed in the house and has been stuck in committees for ages
As for funding genocide…yeah the Democratic party has a problem in that most voters lean towards Palestine and the party doesn’t, but its also a relatively “new” issue in the eyes of the public (most people didn’t think about Israel or Palestine before this for any amount of time), so who knows? Maybe things shift as things go on
Moderate democrats are the majority in power, so it makes sense they are the most powerful and get what they want the most. In cases like Manchin, they get outsized power due to how tight margins are in the senate. That’s how it works in a “coalition” of sorts. If Dems had a comfortable majority, they could force through more things. It’s basic logic that a party with multiple different wings has to cater to the ones that are more likely to flip on them. In most cases, the left wing of the Dems will never vote for the Right, so it’s a safer bet to de-prioritize them when compared to the right, who may vote right.
If the left wing of the dems had more voters (which is slowly happening by the look of things), they could exercise more power, and if they had a comfortable majority (and more balls), they could ignore people like Manchin.
As per your question, I have no idea, I dont keep tabs on every vote, but I am very confident my assessment of the situation is correct.
Right. Tell them to be grateful for genocide and scream that they want trump
No, by reminding them that “hey we are the party that stops you from actively being deported and barred from entering the country.”
That’s a damn convincing argument if there ever was one, and honestly if they aren’t convinced it won’t be a problem anymore since they won’t be around next election cycle anyway after another round of republican rule…
I like how they don’t like genocide so in protest, they vote for the other party that “likes genocide” (and is actively hostile to minorities, but whatever).
In this case the tradeoff they have to accept is…voting for a party that does the same thing but even more overt.
I’m not belittling anyone, I’m simply stating that facts of the situation - regardless of which party they vote for - they will be effectively choosing to accept genocide, whether their vote is a protest vote or not, because that’s how the 2-party system works.
Is your friend a Cold-War era Romanian dictator?
