Of course not, that'd be ridiculous.

It's called the FSB nowadays.

Wasn't Fox News started specifically to ensure that wouldn't happen again?

I think Biden still believes that things can swing back in the midterms or next presidential election. I don't think he realizes that this might have been the last election that was possible to win.

If he does something drastic, he'd probably hand even more popular support to the Republicans in general and to Trump in particular who would play victims as much as they could.

If he does nothing, it might be the end of democracy, not just in the US but in most of the world. But he will have "accepted defeat gracefully" and considering he won't live to see the worst of it, I imagine that's all that matters.

Edit: Just watched his speech. Nope, he thinks this is business as usual.

I would guess that she's trying to separate the voters from the representatives, so that when someone calls out a republican politician for being racist, they have a harder time convincing their voters that she was calling them racist as well.

Right now it seems like people see their political party as their identity, there are both democrats and republicans who do it but I'd say it is far, far more common with republicans.

You can, and should, hold your representatives accountable when they do bad shit, regardless of whether you voted for them or not, and if your party starts standing for things that are worse than another party then you should change who you vote for.

It's a long road to get back from this division in the US, but I hope there's a future where it's possible.

I can add that if you ever say something that you yourself think was stupid, it's often better to just own up to it than to play it off (within limits). Something like "That was a stupid thing for me to say, I'm sorry, you're just very beautiful and I'm a bit nervous" as an example.

Implying that the only two options are supporting Israel committing genocide or Hamas committing terrorism is like straight out of of the Israeli regime's playbook.

To be fair, had it been possible to control hurricanes, I have no doubt that Blackrock would try to use it to extract profit but they're hardly alone in that.

I agree that it's likely made up, and that the guy likely has a lot of misogynistic views, but you at least don't need to misrepresent the post.

And how do you propose to create this organization and get countries to agree on its legitimacy?

DC actually has a higher "let go" threshold than AC does so you'd likely be more okay from a slightly higher voltage DC shock than a lower voltage AC shock.

I mean...

I'd just like to note that a lot of storage technologies that are currently in the pilot project stage are based on using components with existing supply lines to minimize the time and effort needed to scale up production.
