They did, though, on January 6th! They were looking for her and others.

Vested interest in any government that doesn’t threaten their wealth. Capitalists always thrive in fascism.

And exposure from the Epstein Files being unsealed.

Maybe not, but capitalism and fascism want the same things. They don’t care about Biden’s age, just their wealth and not supporting anyone who threatens that. That’s why all the narrative around Biden’s age is all we get out of that debate. The wealthy own all means of communication.

There’s a reason the saying, “the revolution will not be televised,” is relevant. I think you may be missing the plot a little as no one thinks CNN drugged or did anything else to Biden. But the media can make it so the national attention is on Biden. They want him replaced or they want tRump to win.

They’re playing chess while a majority of Americans are fighting about who gets the white pieces and who gets the red ones [cause they’re playing checkers]!

Ding ding ding! Biden is a threat to the wealthy so the smear campaign is rich capitalists trying to replace Biden with someone they like more, or get tRump back in so they can get tax breaks. They care not for the dangers of fascism cause they’ll still make profit, but with fewer regulations and faster.

Also, probably many of those implicated in the Epstein files are extremely wealthy and don’t want that info taking center stage at anytime. The wealthy like to see those bank account zeroes increase! Soon as you threaten that, they try to jail, replace, or “remove” them using their near infinite means. The same ones named in those files likely also own local news groups and can influence local and/or regional news.

Wow, that’s crazy! I’m sorry that happened to you. Hopefully, after all that, you were spared from long COVID.

I still love the fact that not even the actors knew what was going to happen so their fear and surprise is genuine. I think it makes the whole scene better knowing that!

A lot of my favorite YouTubers are from Australia and quite funny. They’re always making explosives in their shed and bitching about their thesis being due!

^Bonus points if you know the YouTube channel I am referencing.^

Answer: If it can be eaten, it will be eaten, or envenomated while trying. That snake was full of Australian cow venom, the most potent cow venom in the world!

Psh, you dirty anti-communist!

Wouldn’t that be interesting? I know when I got COVID, the one time I got it in the last 4 years, it took me out for 3 straight days. I couldn’t imagine trying to do well in a debate while inundated with all that comes from COVID.

Since the vaccines started becoming standard, infection rates have normalized and the current strains are much less harmful than the first (if vaccinated, if I recall). It’s possible that COVID could mimic similar symptoms to a cold and drastically influence debate performance. It would definitely explain the senility we witnessed.

Bottom line is that Biden is old as fuck, we know, but the dude bikes and exercises while constantly barraged by people shouting he’s “too old” and “should drop out.” I think I would bomb a debate with all that shit, too! Add COVID to the mix and I’d probably want to die rather than debate a serial-liar.

Why do you think everything sucks right now? The simulations ran out of resources long ago so no new ideas are created, just rehashing of already established ones. It’s why we have AI, but it can’t generate anything new or useful. It’s why we’re about to have a restart of World War 2 and The Cold War. It’s why movies that come out already are getting remade, but slightly worse than the original story.

People like to think that’s because capitalism only caters to the safe bets. But we know better! It’s really just that the old Apple 2e that’s running the simulation(s) is low on resources!!

Now, where did I leave all that red string, pictures of Bigfoot and the Loc Ness monster, and thumbtacks?

I see a lot of the nay sayers as a vocal minority. They yell the loudest, but only because the media gives them a platform to generate clicks. Just like how Republicans believe everyone in the nation, who doesn’t worship satan, is pro-birth. Kansas, a deep red rural state proved otherwise with a vote to add abortion rights into their constitution a couple years ago, something their conservative supreme court just upheld.

Honestly, the recent ruling on the Kansas ballot initiative, which quite frankly surprised me to begin with, shows that in some places judges still do their job even when their personal beliefs may differ from the law they are entrusted with interpreting. Kansas voters, you showed us the way and stood out against the backdrop of “conservative status quo.” Kansas showed, in the last two years, that when given a chance, even deep red states see the writing on the wall.

I have a feeling the outcome of this election is going to be a “silent storm” event and wake-up call to the GOP that they are out of touch with what the people really want. They’ve drank the loud-mouth’s Kool-aid for far too long and won’t believe it when it happens.

Think of it like the silent majority (maybe 80% of nationwide voters) is the massive tornado that took out the drive-in theater in the movie, Twister. In the movie, no one saw it until a random lightning strike shed light on the sheer girth of the monster bearing down on them. The GOP is the drive-in. The night of the election will be their lightning flash. We, the voters, will be the tornado.

Cite sources. You make claims up and down to the fact that third-parties have “influenced” elections [other than the spoiler effect, pulling votes from someone’s next preferred candidate]. So what third-party candidate has been shown to influence anything positively under our current system of voting.

I tell ya, Putin must be running out of “the best and brightest” to the meat grinder in Ukraine if we’re left with you.

This word hurt my tongue!

Thanks for the recommendation. I’m always up for new series. Recently started getting into police interview videos and long-form docuseries like The Alt-Right Playbook.

I’ll add Omeleto to my viewing list and let you know what I think when I watch it!

It definitely was. Didn’t really care for the show until this and some later episodes. Still didn’t hold my attention long enough. Just not a fan of Seth McFarland’s face. Didn’t feel like a good role for him and the show started super slow. Kind of like Farcscape, it took a bit to get its sea legs!

Probably Gears of War, now that I think about it. That whole world just never interested me.

Wasn’t this a Black Mirror episode? No… I think it was The Orville, maybe.

They aren’t the same country, though. Things like that are likely more common in the UK than in the US. It’s hard enough to vote here, yet alone if they pull the ol’ switcheroo on the candidate in just a month.
