No other democrat is campaigning though…

The courts can’t even raise issue 2. That’s what you’re missing. Courts aren’t allowed to question the President’s intent.

How can you prove conspiracy if you can’t prove that all conspirators intended to commit a crime?

Fucked up is a matter of perspective. If you’re an oligarch, it’s all going according to plan.

Using that as evidence would fall under questioning his motivation and intent. That’s why the language about not being able to do that is in the decision.

Yeah my mom bought into the narrative. I was telling her what a disaster the debate was and of course she doesn’t want to accept that.

So she latched onto headlines like this one.

I opened lemmy a few days ago to check the news after taking a break for a few days.

I hadn’t even read anything yet and I felt my adrenaline start.

Gutting the state as beefalo said is right but they’ll still have the usual scapegoats (immigrants, dog whistle racism, lgbtq community).

Any of these communities could be hit with state violence, either directly through police action or state sanctioned terrorism such as the proud boys, or indirectly by eroding protections and further marginalization.

Just look at what Texas and Florida are doing to hurt trans people and immigrants. Scale that up to a national level. That sort of stuff is in the project 2025 playbook. For example just being trans they want to make illegal under the pornography act. And charge teachers who talk about the existence of trans people with child sexual assault.

So, hopefully not gas chambers and witch hunts but, it could get pretty bad for a lot of people.

But the swing voters the person you were replying to is referring to, mostly think that President is basically king.

It’s the low information voters that are the problem, and you guys trying to spin it like this isn’t a big deal isn’t going to help the situation.

The DNC needs to find a different horse. Biden needs to retire and go enjoy that golf he was talking about last night

I hardly saw any mentions of him being hoarse reading through the megathread comments last night.

Stuff like, winning the war against Medicaid, on the other hand, as well as his general just got out of bed demeanor, is absolutely going to erode confidence in him and quite potentially cost progressives the election if they don’t pick a different horse.

Depends on what you mean by religion.

Buddhist monks and nuns shave their heads and don the robes as a ceremonial act of letting go of identity views such as ‘us and them’ and even self and other.

This and not holding onto dogmatic views in general is a big part of the practice and the teachings.

Not saying all Buddhists are perfect by any means. I’ve hung out in enough Buddhist online spaces to come across a lot of dogmatism and people using Buddhism itself as an identity view. Myself included when I wasn’t as far along my own path.

But the intention of the practice is to point these things out and help people to let them go. Not to cling to them.

Will Trump pee in a cup first?

I mean if we’re going to start drug testing candidates it’s going to apply to both of them right.

And as far as I know only one of them has incontinence that’s most likely related to stimulant abuse.

It’s media attention, but the intent is to educate about propaganda rather than spread it.

Noise machine being a metaphor for propaganda.

He seems kind of weak to me. He’s not even allowed to own firearms. How can a man who can’t even own guns possibly MAGA?

Yeah I know. But I wanted to point out that the comment in the article wasn’t so much a real consideration as business risk analysis 101. Along with a healthy dose of corporate spin.

I hope there is no statute of limitations on child sexual assault in his jurisdiction.

A spokeswoman for OpenAI declined to comment beyond pointing BI to a corporate blogpost from May, in which the company says it takes web crawler permissions “into account each time we train a new model.

The translation for this is do we stand to profit more than we stand to be punished.

Basic capitalist risk assessment in other words.

That makes sense. Thanks for clarifying the liability issue.

Trump’s spiritual advisor resigns after admitting he sexually assaulted a 12-year-old child.

Much better headline in my opinion.

If I was writing the article I would have pointed out the admission, rather than pointing towards the allegation. Which is based on his admission.

Excellent article. Just came out as gender queer. It’s terrifying being myself, but I 100% agree. They’ll keep pushing because it’s my very existence that offends them.

Putting myself back in that binary box feels like death, because it is. It’s a spiritual death. Not just for me, but for generations of people to follow.

So, I’m going to keep dressing how I like even if it offends. Because it also encourages and inspires other people like me and you.
