How is Battlemage. I've been thinking about getting a replacement for my Alchemist card. It's mostly transcoding but it's always nice to have backup hardware in these days.
Acting like not voting at all would fix anything is a huge part of the problem. Yeah the Democrats not going to do anything, but you know what that means, the Democrats won't do anything. They won't embarass America on the world stage every day, they won't fund the Gestapo to assault minorities and they won't threaten allies with invasion.
Sure the Democrats suck, the whole damn system sucks but it's a whole lot better for a whole lot of people when the Republicans are not in charge.
Let's go back to the way way long ago, January 2025. When King Don was crowned the second time he declared that diversity equality and inclusion (DEI) were dead. He and his court demanded that Universities be reserved for their kids and stop DEI, so their kids wouldn't have to sit in class with a black or brown and have their kids learn about empathy. King Don said that any institution which says they're not ditching DEI is a terrorist organization and won't receive federal funds. This scared a lot schools into doing what King Don wanted, but a few didn't and one of those schools is Harvard. Now King Don and his MAGA followers are angry because this school is fighting back, so they've decided to stop going to Harvard. Except they were never getting in so who cares?
While I agree in principle, in practice policies like that end up backfiring. In this case the Nazi's have taken over responsibility for enforcing the anti-nazi laws and wouldn't you know it, the actual victims are the Nazi's gosh darn it. It's the anti-fascists who are the real fascist by preventing the fascist from the right to express their facism.
It's like when your brother finally gives up drugs. You don't forgive or forget all the terrible stuff that they've done, but you welcome the person you knew before the drugs back. At least what's left of them. MTG doesn't deserve forgiveness but she deserves respect for admitting that she was wrong and walked back. It wasn't her idea to do any of this and I'm sure if things went differently she'd still be by his side but an ally is better than an enemy.
And everyone of them will say to you completely honestly, "it's a freer America than if I had voted for a Democrat."
At this point it's tribalism. Anyone who still supports Trump and the Republicans will always support them. Being Republican is part of their identity, it's the identity they share with their family, friends and coworkers. It's the identity of their community. They're not going to walk away from all that just because one irresponsible ICE agent killed one guy in a democratic city. They can't, they'd be walking away from everything they've known. Like their football team, they'll cheer their team on no matter what because it's their team. Simple as that.
Because we've always been at war with Oceania. If the media doesn't toe the party's line Donald Trump will sue them for five billion dollars. Because we've always been at war with Eurasia.
It definitely has its own problems, and the results are thoroughly investigated by the researchers. But yeah it's very niche, however most models are freely shared between teams. I mean it has to be to get through peer review.
