Why on earth would you feel compelled to educate me about my local politics by pulling up some wiki pages and then refusing to even format your message?

and,

And Aloha Aina is the local party I had never heard of before seeing them on the ballot,

TIL

​

And why the fuck would anything in this post indicate RFK might be someone to vote for?

I don’t know, but it might be saying something about ballot acess laws in Hawaiʻi.

​

The theoretical appeal of the Greens is progressivism, not the unfortunate antivax shit that’s glommed onto it.

fair enough.

​

And Aloha Aina is the local party I had never heard of before seeing them on the ballot, which may sound good to you because you know nothing about Hawaii, but is something in the vague realm between nutjob sovereign citizen types and conservatives that can’t bear to be Republicans due to history.

according to WP:

According to its website, the Aloha ʻĀina party advocates for a sovereign Hawaiʻi through the framework of hoʻoponopono (“making right what is wrong”), believing the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom to have been an unjust act. It also promotes other Hawaiian values such as Mālama ʻĀina (“taking care of the land”) and Aloha Kānaka (“love and care for the people”).[2]

A co-founder of the Green Party of the United States, Hawkins was the party’s presidential nominee in the 2020 presidential election. His ideological platform includes enacting an eco-socialist version of the Green New Deal—which he first proposed in 2010—and building a viable, independent working-class political and social movement in opposition to the country’s two major political parties, and capitalism in general.[3]

Apparently RFK, Jr isn’t on the Hawaiian ballot, though your state has write-ins.

a post I made earlier:

If Harris loses California, New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, Connecticut, Hawaii, Vermont, DC, or Maine-1 because of vote-splitting by Stein, it will be Harris’s fault. If you’re voting in these states, you might as well vote your heart.

If he dies the Trumpers will say that the RINOs did it.

He’ll be less dangerous to the US, and more dangerous for the GOP.

He should still run for President in 2028, 2032, and 2036.

Come on Trump! Obama won 2 terms and you only have 1: you are such a loser!

Bezos is scared of Trump.

It’d might be acceptable if it causes Trump to lose (again).

He’s garbage.

Will he play Ave Maria and/or play with Loomer’s tits?

Much better them than Liz Cheney.

The lawsuit escalates Paxton’s hunt for noncitizen voters just two weeks before the election and a day after early voting began in Texas. He has pressed Texas Secretary of State Janet Nelson to request that the federal government hand over data the state could use to cross-check its voter rolls.

His timing is impeccable.

These renewables, however, are intermittent sources of power, while data centers need a steady supply to run all the time. The tech companies are currently reliant on the grid whenever the wind isn’t blowing or sun isn’t shining.

Gee, if only if they could have, say, containers of substances that could hold an electrical charge: perhaps—if you will—a “battery” of such containers.

It was taken out of context. The media should put us at ease and ask him to clarify.

That was during minority government.

Thanks to Trudeau our Canadian dollar is a weak as fuck,

wp:Canadian dollar

Accounting for approximately 2% of all global reserves, as of January 2024 the Canadian dollar is the seventh-most held reserve currency in the world, behind the U.S. dollar, euro, yen, sterling, renminbi, and Australian dollar.[5] The Canadian dollar is popular with central banks because of Canada’s relative economic soundness, the Canadian government’s strong sovereign position, and the stability of the country’s legal and political systems.[6][7][8][9][10]
