I mean, that's a weird-ass AI prompt. But if fascism wins and you voted third party, yes - it's partly* your fault unless you're too stupid to understand how first past the post voting works.
*conditionals against massive fascist party majority states notwithstanding.
If your goal is to have a third option to vote for, the best way to help is to support independent candidates on the right as well. If the fascist vote is split (say between Trump and Liz Cheney) then a vote for (Cornell West for example) is less likely to be a vote for fascism.
Third party candidates will never be the answer. They exist only to dilute resistance. The answer is to raise awareness and outrage until it can’t be ignored.
While I agree third party candidates are not really the solution, what exactly is rage and outrage that can’t be ignored gonna do? How is that gonna change things? Do you think the lawmakers and people in power and gonna just gonna fix the system that put them in power just cause some people got mad? More importantly changing all that would take time, way more time than we have before the next election, so what do you recommend we are suppose to do right now?
Please be a bit more specific than “get mad”, cause trust me, a lot of people have been mad for a long time, just getting mad doesn’t fix anything
We were on the verge of forcing real change before the neolibs convinced the middle class that they won by electing Biden. The people in the streets fighting cops is always the beginning of change. Spreading information, and not accepting the premise that Biden is the solution is how we get people back in the streets.
If one is a leftist and wants a third party just so we’ll be represented at all, then supporting right wing independents could backfire. Their corrupt corporate moderates are costing the right just as much support as they cost us. There’s a lot of religious folks out there who - if united - would usher in the Handmaid’s Tale.
Ross Perot came very close to actually winning. In today’s climate, a far right candidate just might.
Just curious… In what way did Ross Perot come close to winning? I see that he got 8% of the popular vote in 1996 but I’m not seeing that he ever got an electoral vote.
The meat might be tender, but if they’re US billionaires they’ll likely have abnormally high salt content. Just something to be aware if you have high cholesterol
Nobody actually cares though SatansMaggotyCumFart may care, but I dont, you do realize that… you’re trying to make some point but this is a fucking meme community dude…
I’m just over here, doing my thing. Talking about soil amendments and living my life.
You don’t have to comment if you find my stuff boring. In the meantime, I’ll keep on doing what suits me; educating people like @satansmaggotycumfart below for instance
All this talk of eating the rich, when we should really use the rich as fertilizer. This has the side benefit of allowing one to include their vegan or vegetarian friends.
I’m trying to move away and doing all I can with python (pandas, numpy and friends). Everything starts with a pd.read_excel() and finish with a df.to_excel().
Yeah, the part after “all the birds” that he forgot to type is “because climate change is going to kill them all and my billionaire ass is headed to Mars, fuck you, got mine!”
No, a lot will default to that, but they can’t force you to use any particular dns server. I mean they can, buts a fcc violation at that point I believe
…no, it didn’t. ISPs can’t just block access to specific dns servers Willy nilly. They can slow down specific dns servers of their choice but there’s literally no incentive to do so. Your individual dns traffic isn’t that important I promise.
They do worse than block it, the redirect it to their own servers.
And the data is worth it at volume. They have hundreds of thousands of users, along with the region they are in, as well as data on what websites they visit.
Advertisers have and continue to pay for that data.
I always thought they exist because privacy. Regular old DNS requests are not encrypted so even if you send a request to 9.9.9.9 your ISP can still see it.
They could technically just drop and traffic over port 53 that is not destined to their own DNS servers. But that’s china level shit. I’ve never seen an ISP control this in North America.
They can also redirect that traffic to their own DNS servers, so you think you are using 3rd party DNS, when you are actually still using theirs. This became legal when the Trump administration got rid of net neutrality legislation.
