I was simply telling a joke, but point well taken.

To be fair, considering the right wing hellscape our (US) Overton window overlooks the bias bot might actually have a point.

What a brilliant way to put it, "theft from the public domain". I'm gonna have to remember that one.

I'm not against nuclear power, but could they have concocted a worse set of motivations? Restarting Three Mile Island to power Microsoft's AI ambitions? Shit reads like something a super villan would cook up.

I wish more sovcits believed that signatures were only valid if signed in blood. At least that would add a touch of creativity to their batshit beliefs.

Feels like I'm receiving the facebook post via morse code.

"The Great Meeting", is that sovcit code for something?

The filibuster has never really been a thought out and considered rule of the senate so much as a fluke of debate rules. It's basically just a loop hole noone has wanted to close since the first senate. Noone's made it easier so much as debate rules have streamlined and the filibuster along with them.

Fuck it, I'd welcome an invasion at this point provided whatever country did it super pinky promised not to do half the shit Republicans do.

I've also ran into some issues simply accessing youtube through my vpn, but that's been going on for a while.

Absolutely. So much of the right wing media space is inhabited by, funded by, and glorifies grifters that they've created a constant chunk of their audience that is vulnerable to their tactics. Values or policy prescriptions don't even really need to come into it, if you are a grifter it's just a smart business decision to start drifting to the right. It opens up those audiences to you because you are "one of them".

I think it'd also count as a full term in office so far as the rule against running more than twice goes. So you could run for reelection, but that isn't a "one werid trick" to getting three terms in office.
