It must be humiliating to see conservatives pushing a conservative agenda and have no response to it except “no you”.

Have you even thought this through logically, or do you just bleat what you’re told to?

If support having police search schools to ensure gender identity is suitably suppressed, you should be proudly taking credit for it as a conservative.

If you don’t support it, conservatives have made it clear that this is their agenda and if you don’t support it, you’re no longer welcome among conservatives.

So what’s it going to be? Are you going to openly support current Republican policies, pretend you do, pretend you don’t, switch to the party you’ve been trying to throw your shit at or just not vote?

Is this really the corner you want to back yourself into for shit-tier jabs like “Must be a Democrat”?

He’s the asshole’s candidate. We don’t need to politely pretend otherwise.

The only difference between the conservative Burundi government and the conservative American government is what they think they can get away.

Probably lots of reasons, all of them fucked.

The main reason is probably money. There’s no better way to turn billions of dollars of public funds into billions of dollars of private profits.

It also reassures neoliberals that for all his rhetoric about forgiving loans and improving healthcare access, he’s still willing to kill children if there’s money in it.

It’s also a chance to show off the unstoppable force of American arms against people who are considered completely expendable to America.

This was so awkward I had to check if you were joking but nope, actual conservative who got his feelings hurt and retaliated with the two most generic right-wing insults there are.

I could teach your entire personality to a bird.

they can give millions in subsidies direct to corporations

That’s exactly why they’re fighting it – every dollar they give to poor people is a dollar less they can give to rich people.

Their initial investigation into him lasted 13 months.

Epstein died in 2019. If there’s any open cases it’s because they’re not making any effort to close them.

Nope. I know it’s hard for you to relate to, but I’m not remotely insecure enough to be “triggered” by a stranger who smells like a Magic: The Gathering tournament, hurling someone else’s insults like a parrot taught to swear, because there’s nothing else for him to do now that they teach teenagers to recognise emotional abuse.

They were 100% aware they were hosting a “not technically child pornography but we’re going to use it as child pornography” sub, but there’s no subreddit degenerate enough that they’ll ban it while it’s profitable.

Not nearly as absurd as resisting it by firing into crowds of innocent people and voting for someone who openly struggles to put basic sentences together.

If you want to play the “this person represents everyone I disagree with” game, you’re going to have to do better than one person, who may not even exist, being a dildo.

I won’t. He’s not a good person and doesn’t make even a token effort to pretend otherwise.

I also have to subscribe to and use Adobe software but suggesting it’s less buggy and less expensive than other apps is delusional.

The moment you try and do anything outside of basic image editing, Photoshop immediately shits the bed.

It’s riddled with features that were half developed or half removed. Tried using any of the 3D stuff? It pops up a box saying “We’ve abandoned this and it probably won’t work, but go ahead and try because we haven’t properly removed it”. Using artboards? Probably not, since half the app seems to break with them, including their brand new features like Live Gradients that rearrange themselves when you save.

Looking for a filter? Well there’s 2 places to look since they seem to have lost interest in the filter gallery half way through, then piled mediocre AI filters on top. It’ll be a slow search, since for some reason some popup windows take fully 3 seconds to open, probably due to their 4 different UI systems in various states of abandoned.

Photoshop is widely used today because it was good 15 years ago. If someone hasn’t already creating a leaner, more stable, better designed, more ambitious piece of software, it’s only a matter of time until they do.

Still better than being far-right dogshit.

It’s not even close.

Republicians are never going to go after a Democrat for sleazy, self-serving neoliberalism because they’re also sleazy, self-serving neoliberals.

It’s one of the unspoken rules of the rich – you can use unimportant bullshit to jostle for votes, viewers and market share but you’re never, ever to attack the system that makes them richer.

The moment someone does, watch them band together across “left-wing” and “right-wing” in a show of class solidarity and signal strength the rest of us can only dream of.

We also have no idea what measures they take to stop the system being manipulated (if any).

The far-right could be working to ensure they’re recommended as often as possible and if it just shows up as “engagement” or “impressions” on their stats, YouTube is unlikely to fight it with much enthusiasm.

Libertarians are mostly just neoliberals who are upset they’re not allowed to be more psycopathic.

Their new utopia will tear itself apart with greed, drugs and sex abuse just like all the old ones.

That’s asking a lot from a group of people seething over the idea that somewhere out there is a person they’ll never meet with an opinion about their own genitals that isn’t far-right approved.

It doesn’t seep in, it’s cultivated by far-right groups that intentionally target children and openly groom them for extremism.

But he was naive thinking he could store that much data with a tech giant, his “life’s work”, risk free.

Google made a promise they didn’t keep and articles like this are the consequence of that.

It’s not ideal, but it still feels better than “let them lie and then blame their victims for believing it”.
