1·3 天前The Republicans have literally rigged the game and are making sure they are dealt winning hands, but your feelings tell you elections are completely legitimate and there’s “a 50% fair chance of winning”.
You completely ignored my comment, deny shared reality and supporting facts, then repeat the exact same nonsense. Are you Maga?
The GQP doesn’t have anywhere near a 50% chance of winning unless they cheat, get activist judges to change existing laws, and flagrantly break the remaining laws. Because who’s going to stop them, the Supreme Court?

Move corporate HQ to Russia, place mirrors in orbit to block sunlight, then charge big $$$ to unblocked it. Profit.
Never underestimate what the GQP will do to prevent anything resembling a fair election. They will purge voter registrations by the millions, gerrymander district maps to make them look like spider webs, and make registering and voting damn near impossible.
Republicans will burn the country to the ground to remain in power.
With 6 additional senators?
This is epic nonsense bullshit and was shared because it is so fucking ridiculous it made me spit out my coffee.
We have a tyrannical minority that is actively changing laws so they can remain in power indefinitely. We have a packed Supreme Court that is literally ignoring the Constitution when the reason they exist is to protect it. If they hadn’t made Trump king he would not be in office, he’d be in criminal court.
Republicans have been virulently anti-democracy for decades. As far as the GQP is concerned the majority can go fuck themselves.

So… Just like most of Maga, right?
OpenWRT is a permanent solution for older TP-Link routers. Their newer routers are locked down and not supported by OpenWRT.
Trump is as self-aware as a bar of soap.
This is a game of pigeon chess played entirely by pigeons.
If Trump and his cult make the slightest concession the Dems will fold immediately. Then both sides will knock over the remaining pieces and fly back to their flocks to claim victory.
“It’s their fault. Everything is their fault.”
A malignant narcissist’s mantra.
This is about law and politics and considering the topic IMO it belongs here. Mods please remove if it’s not appropriate.

I spent months on another social media platform doing just that and I learned quite a bit about Maga and none of it was good. They literally had nothing to back up their opinions besides posts and videos by other right wing assholes. Their “research” was entirely within their own echo chamber and outside information, no matter how authoritative, wasn’t considered at all. Information they couldn’t easily disregard or ignore like quotes directly from congressional reports didn’t change their minds either, although it did shut them up.
In addition, 80% of Trump supporters on that site were functionally illiterate. They couldn’t spell, capitalize, or use punctuation, nor could they write a complete, coherent sentence. They likely had just as much trouble reading.
I did learn that they really didn’t like it when someone was able to easily disprove some of their bullshit in a sentence or two and I was threatened more than once by Maga assholes on that site.
There is no challenging Maga Nazis, Trump said it, they believe it, and that settles it.
We have an openly fascist president who reads Mein Kampf and administration members who combined have made Nazis comfortable literally doing Nazi salutes on international broadcast TV. IMO the U.S. IS the Nazi bar in the story - we let one Nazi in and now they’ve brought all their friends. Let’s not repeat that mistake on Lemmy.
Give them the boot.
Thanks for that write-up. I’ll continue to ignore the electric company’s marketing efforts and remain blissfully disconnected.
