Fedizen , in Senate Republicans block Democratic bill codifying Roe v. Wade abortion protections

voting on things is a “stunt”, sure. We can now cut aside the rhetorical crap and squarely know who is willing to shoot it down.

JohnOliver , in AOC files articles of impeachment against Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito

We need an AOC superhero sape!

HotsauceHurricane , in With no residential address, homeless voters in Georgia face removal from the rolls

I guess the rights of Americans are just suggestions. fucking assholes.

letsgo2themall , in Actor George Clooney, a high-profile Biden supporter and fundraiser, asks president to leave race

rich actor says something dumb, news at 11.

WatDabney , in In a first, Republican majority on a Nevada county commission refuses to certify election

Just the first of many, MANY more to come.

The Republican plan, rather obviously, is to take this election by whatever means necessary - fairly, or if that fails fraudulently, or if that fails by judicial fiat, or if that fails by force.

That’s the biggest reason I don’t even call this a revolution. It’s a coup.

Yet again they are targeting the vulnerable of society, and trying to disenfranchise them. But if course, the cruelty is the point.

nondescripthandle , in In a first, Republican majority on a Nevada county commission refuses to certify election

Have fun trying to ‘vote out’ fascism Nevada. Seems you’re the first people who’ve been denied the right to the ballot box county wide. Hope you know what box is next. Lord know you have some of the loosest laws surrounding it.

Um ackschually, the saying is

There are four boxes to defend liberty: Soap, Ballot, Jury, Ammo. Please use in that order.

So, they’re not quite there. Yet

Good luck with the jury box in this judicial climate.

Imgonnatrythis , in Trump claims not to know who is behind Project 2025. A CNN review found at least 140 people who worked for him are involved

Sounds like he should take one of those IQ tests he keeps talking about.

This guy is like a deranged one legged gerbil crawling toward your lunch from a mile away. You see him with binoculars and he has several busy streets and predators along the way. You chuckle - the poor bastard won’t make it 50 feet. With no sense of cunning, agility, or wit he flops along in your general direction somehow avoiding what seemed like self-evident destruction, and all the sudden you look up in panic and the mother fucker is about to eat your lunch. I hate this fucking gerbil.

Anyone who refers to AI as “an artificial intelligence supercomputer” sounds like peak boomer to me

Anyone who says “artificial intelligence supercomputer” used chatGPT on their phone

TimLovesTech ,

I can only imagine what kind of “data” they think they are feeding this “artificial intelligence supercomputer” that is apparently counting ballots by not physically counting them? Also love that they supposedly have a “mathematician” also using some sort of “data” to somehow count ballots without counting them (and if this person exists they are almost certainly a high school math teacher that is just part of the cult).

I’m sure what they think they are doing is using one of these error filled lists created by these conservative organizations, and then using statistics to try and show how the numbers have to be in their favor. They don’t understand that garbage in = garbage out, and it’s why nothing they are using is anything but a waste of time and wouldn’t even be admissible in court.

thefartographer ,

You’re giving them too much benefit of the doubt. Most likely, the numbers were pulled from their ass. Easy enough to find since they don it like a ski mask every day.

TimLovesTech ,
@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

The problem is they have all this bad data they acquire from these groups, and then use it to fuel these conspiracy’s (like 2000 mules) that their base that has been conditioned not to question, and then we get things like January 6th. And they have already begun laying the ground work to take this country by force if needed this time around. They have fake electors, and election denial people in high places all over the country. Trump has been priming the base with the whole “the only way we could lose is if they cheat” line all over again. And unfortunately, Biden doing that debate, and the fall out afterwards is only going to add gas to the conspiracy theories this go around. The Heritage Foundation president stated that Project 2025 will allow “conservatives” to take back our country without any blood shed, unless the Left does anything to try and stop them. They want to a civil war.

We need to stop brushing these people off like they are crazy and spewing a bunch of shit, which they are, but they have a cult (in law enforcement, in the Judiciary, lawyers out of the ass, and then millions of foot soldiers) ready to fight for them. When these asshats are screaming through a megaphone exactly who they are, and the crazy shit they want to do, we need to start taking them seriously.

thefartographer ,

I’m not trying to be dismissive of the incredibly real threat we’re all facing, I’m saying that most things they claim to back up with evidence are based on bullshit. They only back shit up with lies and violence.

Jesus Christ. I’m 47 and I’m an idiot and I still know that an “AI supercomputer” isn’t a thing and even if it was, it couldn’t analyze elections like he seems to think it could.

It could be a thing but in this case it isn’t

Success stories include mapping the human brain’s 80 billion neurons, high-energy particle physics enhanced by deep learning, and drug design and discovery accelerated by machine learning, among others.

vaultdweller013 ,

Rural either breeds technological literacy that is utterly contaminated by hate based understanding of it or technological illiteracy where they think anything shiny is super advanced. I am in the former, I like old tech because it works and I prefer the design philosophy of keep it simple stupid. Ive met plenty in the latter who think that the “internet box” can be improved with prayer meanwhile its choking on dust.

Not only that, but if you trust AI to give you reliable, accurate information, you’re a fucking idiot.

BossDj , in Colorado dropped Medicaid enrollees as red states have, alarming advocates for the poor

I wish every article were written this way. Here’s argument one. Here’s the real data. Here’s argument 2. Here’s the real data. Here’s are some comparisons to other states, how they did it, and what happened.

Keep point/counter point going until you get the defensive “I don’t care what Montana did. This is Colorado.” Ugh.

aramis87 , in "Their goal Is total ethnic cleansing of the Gaza people": Physician Mustafa Barghouti on Israel’s expulsion order for Gaza City

I agree they're trying to get rid of the Palestinians; you could see that with the early slaughter, and their comments to the US, Europe, and the Arab states of, "Well if you're so keen on protecting them, you take them!" And I think they're okay with starvation, if that's what it takes.

But honestly, at this moment right now I think they're trying to thread the needle: starve and bomb them enough that their immune systems are weakened (which is already done). And then just wait for some disease or other to rage through the refugee camps. Everyone is packed in so tightly, and there are so few safe places to go, that disease is just going to rip through the population once it takes hold. And Israel will continue to hold up humanitarian aid, but (at the exact same time) proclaim that they didn't have anything to do with those deaths, it's all just very very sad.

    Agreed, but bro was already shooting.

    By that point, a bullet seems appropriate. He was no longer fit for society.

    “If we don’t see results by 6 weeks, we’re going to try a different class of drugs.”

    31337 ,

    Meh. people who have committed murder can be and are rehabilitated (sometimes) and released back into society as “productive” members (I’ve known a few). But yeah, lethal force is acceptable to stop an active shooter.

    Pretty sure they meant he needed a doctor well before it got to that point.

    EnderWiggin ,

    Whose to say he didn’t have one already? You’re not wrong about healthcare in general, but I’m not sure this is really the right forum for that point to be made.

    No doubt about the mental health issues, and I agree it’s a huge problem in the US. In terms of how the police responded to this though, it’s really tough to judge. It seems they prevented something worse from taking place.

    Liz ,

    Their comment was not “we need to send doctors to respond to shooters.”

    Their comment was “we need universal healthcare so that people don’t feel the need to do these kinds of things.”

    suction ,

    I think he’s saner than Trump. Because Alex Jones doesn’t really believe the shit he says. But Trump is narcissistic to a level where he would take down the world him if he has no more options to “win”.
