it's a fair point. but the reality of many wars reaching a point of "total war" ware both sides abandon any rules agreed to or even within their own cultural norms, it has a limit to how effective it will be.
surrendering in a losing war very early and quickly is wise, but few people who are running a country at war are wise or motivated by any form of loss reduction.
Yes. Like all multipliers the heat of the sun requires not only itself the thing that which is acting but also that which is to be acted upon. If you are a handsome wet rock, the distance you are to the sun effects how your heat is multiplied.
Would he have? Because you forget the votes that don't get cast don't show up in the data either. Look up how many voting locations were shut down in republican held states, or how many voter roll 'purges' were done, or how polls are closed early, or how not same day voting was prevented or thrown out, how polling locations are only open during work hours, I'm not making shit up, they reduce the number of people least likely to vote republican by any means necessary and half of what is legal and being done now by Republicans was made illegal by the civil rights act for most of my lifetime. And that law died with a whimper under Obama of all presidents, the conservative supreme court justified that with ''racism must be over now, so we can get rid of laws ment to combat racism''
People can be mad about two whole things at once, maybe even more. When two things happen, it doesn't mean one of those two things suddenly isn't happening. Pay careful attention, sometimes EVEN MORE than two things happen as well.
The GOP will never support clean cut voting laws, they have to manipulate the votes to win anything they haven't had the numbers to win an election since Nixon. That's the reason our voting laws are convoluted in the first place.
I used it the other day when a kid on my bus buckled the extra 5th point harness on himself that can't be taken off without assistance, which he doesn't require, and I warned him if he puts it on I won't take it off until the destination. He tried bargaining, but I told him I'll die on this hill. He's only 5, but he got that it wasn't going to do anything other than what I said. Also, I know for a fact all he's going to do if I take it off is immediately put it back on. And it can't harm him, it's just an extra strap on a harness.
When farmers burn weeds they often mix a popular petrochemical that's sold at most beer/cig/candy stores and simple Irish bars of lavender, it's pretty useful stuff. For burning weeds.
the demands of the public and candidates of quality with people behind them is what creates change. Burnie changed the DNCs policy commitments, even if he couldn't produce enough votes to be the candidate, he effected change, and that only happens when people are politically engaged and dousing people's desire for change or anger about abuse doesn't effect change.
I'm Hispanic, I grew up in an immigrant neighborhood, this situation is a nightmare, and every president we've had has made it worse since Clinton, but pointing out the Democrats will gladly continue Trump's immigration policy to appear "strong on immigration" to me is highly counterproductive. people are mad right now about immigration policy, people want change. telling them any Democrat that runs is going to be the same when we don't know who that person is or what policy they have written down as a plan of action, it's just telling people to be more hopeless, and not be mad or demand change. No voting Democrat won't fix immigration, but voting republican will always make it magnitudes worse, and people finally seeing what policy is like and being strongly against it is the only way to get a political party to actually openly be pro immigration for once in my entire life.
very hard to convince someone of something when their paycheck requires they don't understand it. seroiusly "hay I'm one of the people who has been demanding my company finish AI and roll it out and stuff it into everything we sell to look like massive growth so my stocks will start going up even though the language models aren't even designed to do what were claiming, and they don't even work well as language models, and we have no real use for them and they're horrifyingly costly to run, but no, I don't think it's a bubble."
