I mean, I’m sure you could bribe your way into the Russian basketball team as a substitute that never plays

Remember when wannabe tech geniuses were talking about how liberal Musk was? How Musk claimed to be so liberal? Pepperidge Farm remembers

I think it’s twofold. There is an influence concern, but I think it’s more that the US doesn’t feel like it can lean on TikTok to push their propaganda while it very clearly does on other social media platforms. I also think that there’s a monetary thing. Congress doesn’t have an issue with American companies doing it because the companies make a ton of money selling influence and advertising data. Congress doesn’t like the fact that those advertising dollars aren’t going to US billionaires

To be fair, he thought he was spelling it correctly.

School staff and student schedules are mostly set for the new year. This announcement is 4 months too late. It’s not like students can sign up for it now

We actually saw this happen in 2020 in the Democratic Party. And establishment Democrats played the game to force Bernie out. We’re hearing from people that Biden wasn’t the best person to beat Trump, he was the best person to beat Bernie. That’s why they rallied around him and pulled the bullshit with Warren before Super Tuesday.

The legal hurdles aren’t in the nomination, they’re in monies donated directly to the Biden/Harris campaign

You must be too young to remember Clinton losing to Trump and rather than “oh this is Clinton and the party’s fault”, they blamed it all on “Bernie bros” despite there being absolutely no data to back it up.

If I’ve learned anything in my decades on this earth, it’s that the DNC will fuck everything up, and they will blame anything bad that happens on the progressive wing of the party.

Technically true. The clients of Israel are US politicians through AIPAC.

Aka what Biden was to Obama

Absolutely not. I will spend my time and energy and money supporting my local Democrats. The national level isn’t as important to me because Republicans in my state have veto-proof majorities in both houses and they hold the governorship. Regardless of what happens at the national level, implementation of Project 2025 began in my state about 3 years ago.

There’s a difference between a cat person and a catperson. I am definitely the latter.

Enby who prefers dogs here. I guess I break things?

I’m on iOS and actually pay for Apple Arcade. It’s been worth it. I don’t bother looking anywhere else for mobile games anymore.

It would not surprise me if Trump requested female agents. He seems like the kind of person that would do that.

Here’s all you need to know: GoodRx is offered for free to consumers. They regularly have better prices for drugs than the product that consumers are paying for.

Also, Cost Plus Drugs exists where they operate as a PBM, but refuse insurance. They clearly tell you their markup. I have yet to find a drug that’s not cheaper there.

It’s their way of saying that trans women aren’t women and trans men aren’t men. It’s less of a technicality thing and more of a “I’m going to be skeptical about this person’s intentions until I see more”

Trans women are women and trans men are men.

As somebody who is nonbinary, I dream as some version of myself.

Also, please use “trans women” and “trans men”. Removing the space is a TERF red flag.

It’s funny to see how Republicans have been “we don’t condone violence” and “this is unacceptable”.

Go look at their reactions to the attack on Paul Pelosi. You know, the celebrations, the “Democrats had it coming”. Funny how things change

You know, this is a good thought for those who are overly anxious.

Understand that for some of us who live in red states, Project 2025 is already being implemented in our states. The national stage isn’t doing anything to slow it down.
