  • But if you saw where this was going and said it too early, this perspective means you're responsible for people not taking you seriously now!

  • Counter Strike was way better when this was the vibe. I am so tired of competitive this and gun case that. I've never been interested in 5v5 scrimming in any serious way, but that's all CS2 wants me to do.

    I want gun game, I want wc3, I want ZM. I want quirky custom maps (glass!) and quake sounds and !bet ct all. I want to fuck around with new friends on a server for an evening, not to sweat my balls off throwing practiced smokes on dust2.

  • This aligns well with Clarence Thomas seeking to get rid of his wife by setting the stage for interracial marriage to become illegal.

  • It sounds like you just don't like parliamentary systems? If voters don't like the party leader, they still have recourse to select other MPs in the upcoming election in a month, right?

    As a lifelong student of politics, I think there are trade-offs to presidential vs parliamentary systems. As an American experiencing political gridlock in the US Congress across decades, there have been times I have been envious of the notion of having a legislative and executive branch work together rather than in diametric opposition.

    Edit: Also, while I believe Carney is friends with billionaires, his net worth is around $7 million. For someone who spent so much time in investment banking, to my American eyes that doesn't seem extravagant. Compare to former presidential candidates Mitt Romney, net worth of $186 million.

  • You would answer atrocity with atrocity and call it progress. Tell me, the families of those you "re-educate," do you expect them to allow you to do this without a fight? And others of conscience who object, will you imprison them too? How many would you murder to reach your ideological purity? When you're done, will you look in the mirror and recognize that you, too, are impure?

  • You're getting down voted on your top level comment, but I wanted to take a second to say I appreciate your back and forth here. I'm more inclined to call this incompetence, but your point that other motives and agendas could be at play is well taken.

  • How does this make them look even mildly competent? They disclosed war plans to an unknown third party by using unsanctioned communication tools. They got lucky it was a reporter who thought he was being baited rather than a more malicious and intentioned actor.

  • Kamala Harris Picked as Democrats’ Runaway 2028 Favorite in New Poll

    Jump

  • The poll seems to cover Democrats and "Democrat-leaning independents," so not the DNC.

    Exit: can't find the actual post on Morning Consult yet, but the article features an image where they specify the polled population.

  • How to get gud at / learn

    Jump

  • The trick for anything is time and consistency. Choose two or three things from this list and plan when you will devote a few hours each week. During your "practice" time, find and use learning resources online.

    Some of these ideas are also shorter-term kind of forming things (like avoid brain rot, touch more grass), so I would also dedicate time weekly to think of/plan concrete changes in your life to accomplish them. Rotate through the list until the habit is fully formed.

  • Kamala Harris Picked as Democrats’ Runaway 2028 Favorite in New Poll

  • Thank you! Any time this kind of polling shows up on Lemmy, users seem to think this is the Plan of the Democratic Leadership Cabal, rather than an incredibly premature name recognition test.

    People want to vote for people they have favorable impressions of who they also think others will vote for. Without other frontrunners, who emerge over time, it's not surprising that polled Democrats would recognize and still support the candidate that 75 million people voted for five months ago.

    If you want other candidates (I do), identify them and figure out how to help them build their profile now.
