It’s not ideological purity. I don’t have anything against her, but if she votes Jefferies then the blue wave will have little effect imo.
If america had an actual multi-party system this wouldn’t have been a problem in the first place. You get your preferred candidate and I get my preferred one, most likely in a coalition together.
Instead she was disciplined by the system itself and the people she has to work with inside that system and the systems of influence in and outside of the government.
You are right, it’s more the culture of the institution she’s a part of. That however doesn’t excuse it. She has the chance, with the new wave to stand with the right kind of people.
The next person will face the same pressures and the same disciplining forces.
Not if you vote the moderates out. I know it’s more complicated than this, but trump has set a fire in motion that might not burn again very soon.
This time I saw that wyoming, Montana, Nebraska and Idaho had independents running against the republicans for the senate. They were all blue collar working class military veterans. They had close races. I am not familiar with their elections but it seems like the people want a change, but they don’t want to vote for the same old guys who are supported by corporates and outside interests. This is the perfect time for change.
Also, “everyone deserves culture” and “you don’t have to release on it” is kinda antithetical.
Everyone deserves culture to the extent you don’t impose on others. I won’t judge anyone if they don’t want to put in the work for series S with limited ROI. But a lot of devs do and it’s nice to have that available to you for an amount that’s not exorbitant.
With consoles, the console is the baseline… Adding an extra entry that is half the specs, while the competition adds a “pro” version that is beefier, makes things harder.
The whole point is that you have something more affordable for those folks who can only go for the affordable option.
Oh, and you do have to release on it. Microsoft demands parity, which is the issue.
Oh, I was then wrong there.
Here’s to hoping.
Hey man, not everyone can afford expensive hardware and you don’t have to realease on it.
Everyone deserves culture.
That’s really sweet :)
Isn’t Jefferies funded by the same super pacs that fund the other moderates? Things aren’t gonna change if he gets elected.
Trump was a good wakeup call to ditch these guys.
It really does feel like AOC is a career politician with too deep ties with super pacs that fund most of the “moderates” in democratic party.
Please vote her out as well.
Right? Good god man it’s the first nuclear explosion 💥.
Was really disappointed with the Nuclear explosion. It was like an extra gassy fart on taco tuesday. I think I saw some instgram videographer do it better.
Also for the love of God why doesn’t he do holding shots? I want room to experience and breathe in the moments. He cuts to the next scene way too fast.
Yeah Zeus’s law and the twist were some of the better done parts of the movie.
Having a deeper understanding is useful, for sure. But how does that make one language real over another?
Why is c++ a “real” language and not rust? It’s a tool. All programmers need to know logic above a specific language.
Hey, you can’t scapegoat leopold and forget that Belgium held on to and continued to exploit congo till the 60s. That’s less than a hundred years ago, your grandad was probably alive then.
Oh and Belgium got their first democratically elected leader lubumba assassinated. And you still regularly interfere in their politics.
Yeah that makes sense. Populist policies with easy loop holes, nothing substantial. They’ll just pass the cost to customers in one way or another.
Maybe they should have policies to support and incentivize competition as well with it?
EVERYONE lies, distorts, exaggerates, especially AUTHORITARIAN LEADERS. (Who’s going to stop them? At least in democracy you can vote them out). If you think the USSR and its leaders didn’t do that you live in a fantasy world.
And I will put my trust in where experts can speak freely, while recognising their bias. Not a country that silences every dissent because it’s going to disrupt security.
The secret speech was an indictment by the very same leaders of USSR of the terror and paranoia Stalin created in Soviet Russia. They understood the ramifications of it and hated what he had done to the nation.
Oh and the facts about the purges and gulags were corroborated by historians who got access to the Soviet archives in the 90s. So unless the soviets were secretly forging millions of documents to further their enemies’ agenda, the call is coming from inside the house.
What’s wrong with pinkhaired dudes?
No dude, Stalin was a facist at heart and only used communism to further his agenda. He killed anyone who he felt threatened his power and with paranoia. Idk where you get the idea that he was trying to reign in the purges. He wasn’t. Doctor’s Plot, the red purge, holodomor, his hatred of Jews, there’s way too much. Everyone was happy to see him gone, at least secretly (refer to the secret speech). He had terrorised all of USSR.
While the politburo did sign off on the purges (never said they weren’t complicit) it was NOT a democratic process. You need representation of voters there.
Stalin’s purges must have been an educational tool as well then.
Okay, you are right. All is not lost. I am not trying to be defeatist, there will be other chances.
I just think it’s rare to see so many non career politicians win elections. It’s a good moment to shore up and solidify that base before the two party rotating system rings back in.
