“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.

Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.

Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?

Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”

― Epicurus

So Labour is right-wing. TERF-island wants to keep its title.

The problem is that it fundamentally makes them a political org to choose one side over the other.

And the US Government has made it clear that they don’t consider a violent insurrection to be treason.

No they didn’t. They prosecuted a LOT of people for that.

So why should facebook go to bat and make themselves an even bigger target come January?

That’s the reason. Fuck Facebook’s own rules, they are trying to mitigate an attack by a fascist dictator.

He’s been having controversies since I heard about him years and years ago. He’s popular but mired in problems. Subway is an idiot.

Yes they can. They are a private corporate and can do whatever they want as long as it doesn’t target a protected class, and it doesn’t.

And in particular, they didn’t silence him because of politics, but because he was conspiring with insurrectionists. Active treason. Stochastic terrorism.

Gotta let a traitor be traitorous because the country might decide we want to overthrow the country again…

Why is screw DLC legal? Why are people ok with companies preventing people from working in their own devices?

I don’t know much about this scene. How is this different than an emulator? You still need a ROM I believe.

You being vague and argumentative without clarification is trolling. Sad and lame.

Who’s shocked, really? “Oh no I’m so surprised the dictator who’s assassinated public officials before is maybe trying to kill us!”

Declare Russia an enemy of the state or whatever allows you to sanction them in totality and be done with it. The fact they won’t because they’ve made themselves so dependent on their gas and other exports is fucking pathetic.

Biden could die and I’d still vote for him, or whoever the non-fascist nominee was.

If you vote for a third party in November you are helping Trump win. The primaries are over. It’s either Biden or whomever the DNC picks now. There are 2 options, 1 of which might be up in the air.

Anyone who announces they’re willing becomes persona non grata and nonviable, for stabbing the current candidate in the back before he’s stepped down.

None of this should have been done in public. Democrats calling for Biden to step down 1 day after the debate are idiots. This is internal party politics and while it would have leaked, it wouldn’t have been democrats blasting their own party leader in public. They should have figured out who was the most popular, got a backup, got their support, and then went to Biden’s campaign with their evidence. Then if he refused to step down, they maybe could do so in public. Or just wait for the pundits to trash Biden on their own instead of adding to it.

Division this late is the game is damning. Also Democrats are fair-weather supporters to a T. 1 bad debate and they throw the sitting POTUS under the bus? Yeah he looked old and made mistakes. But he isn’t a fucking fascist. It’s just unbelievable when Trump has been shitting the bed 24/7 for years.

It’s the early signs like this that needs the rest of the community to come out against the right hard and relentlessly. Just name and shame until they go away. Allowing them to keep spouting bullshit just gets you a slow roll into fascism. I hope they can accomplish it.

At least for me, I have a gaming PC. If I need to dock it, I’ll just switch computers. Though if it’s your only gaming PC then it could probably be more powerful.

If you’re going to pressure an incumbent into dropping out you can’t lead with “we’ll figure out who the nominee is who can beat Trump eventually”. You come to the board with a game plan and evidence. Calling for him to step down is fucking sabotage without all of that.

He’d be stepping down into the void. The primaries are mostly over. It’d just be the DNC deciding for themselves who the candidate would be. That would NOT please most voters. It’s typical for an incumbent to be the nominee for a second term. It’s not typical for a party to just decide who the candidate would be.

It’s probably going to be Harris if he is replaced, which I’m… not thrilled with.

If that’s who they choose they need to decide now and start talking her up, even if Biden doesn’t step down right away. We are past primary season. And honestly, she’s fine. Not good fine. But she’ll lose to Trump. Not for any part of her own merit or policies, but because America is a sexist, racist country and I do not have any confidence in them electing a black woman. Maybe is she was popular or charismatic like Obama was but we haven’t really seen her do much.

Then the Democrats can pick someone else NOW and rally behind them. This constant undermining of Biden while not providing a good alternative and promoting them is just hurting Democrats chances to save democracy. This is irresponsible on such an obvious level I have to assume they are trying to lose the presidency.

Man I love it when billionaire assholes finally figure out what the rest of the world has been saying since the beginning.
