  • Yes perfect, thank you for this. I literally majored in Linguistics but didn't even think of this because school was so long ago. The ability to code switch where someone could use the professional language while governing but colloquialisms and everyday language while giving public statements would be nice, to be better understood. We all understand basic informal American English but not everyone has a great education.

  • Yes, amen, thank you. Abortion beat Harris by 20 points in my state! Clearly there are a lot of Trump voters who are with us on some things and we need to find to common ground to build a bridge and connect us so we can fix this. That common ground is pretty freaking obvious since 99% of us have one thing in common. But Nancy Pelosi has already said no so you need to fall in line and do what she tells you.

  • If you're uneducated and someone is speaking more formally it can be, depending on the topic and the word choice.

    He tax an was tweaked with a more pro corporation lean on the advice of her brother I law Tony West and probably others but all the articles on that are behind paywalls and I don't really care enough about convincing you to look for a way to bypass them.

    As for Trump's abortion ban and things like that, I remember her saying it because she said it. https://www.instagram.com/kamalaharris/reel/DBz9j1zquQx/

  • She stoped supporting single payer, she backed off worker rights, she backed off on taxing corporations, and a huge part of the platform was against Trump's abortion ban and against Trump's authoritarism.

  • They have got to stop talking down to voters, gaslighting voters, and they need to give people something to vote FOR instead of against. I find Kamala to be a good speaker and easy to understand but people saying she's using word salad...at first I didn't get what that was all about, especially when Trump makes absolutely no sense whatsoever but I think I might get it now. She's talking to well educated people but a huge swath of this country is not well educated, uses social media extensively, and maybe it actually does sound like word salad to them when democrats start using words that normal people never use and probably don't understand. If you never went to college and only graduated high school because standards have been reduced, maybe she kind of sounds like an alien sometimes. They need an economic message that speaks to people who have been getting crushed more and more since the 80s and they need to say it in terms we can all understand. And when voters tell them "this is how I feel" for the love of God they need to stop saying "no you don't".

  • Are most mail in ballots democrat this year? I thought republicans were pushing that more with their base. But I don't know if they actually did it or if they voted more in person.

  • Even that might be wrong because at least some of those mothers are afraid to voice their real views. So I agree with you but I still think it might be skewed too heavily in Trump's favor.

  • It can be physically and emotionally unsafe to disclose how you voted. Its gross for media to try to blame people for doing their part but doing it safely instead of blaming the terrorists who makes people afraid to tell the truth.

  • The people who are most concerned about voter fraud are the ones committing voter fraud. Go figure.

  • I dropped mine in the county's drop box so I don't have to risk letting USPS destroy it or "lose" it. Make sure you follow up to verify that your ballot was received AND accepted.

  • This is not far from Yellowstone so there will be grizzlies in that area. I could absolutely see someone finding this scene and getting panicked and running to find a cell signal instead of performing forensic analysis of the scene. But yeah the cops weren't the ones saying it was a bear, they got it at least.

  • Why am I not surprised? At this point I think the Aurora PD is pretty infamous but damn they're not even going to make an attempt at pretending not to be an arm of a fascist movement.

  • Cataclysm sucked. That's why I quit. So you're ok, you aren't stuck with those memories lol

  • I'm shocked, I tell you.

  • I think I might have watched 1 or 2 episodes of this? I thought it was weird how he was talking about how known history is totally wrong and the vast majority of people don't know the truth. If it's the same thing anyways. DNF though lol

  • You're right. The Albersons near my house is hella expensive. Let me just drive farther to pay the same outrageous prices at the other 17 Albertson's.

  • Cable companies too please.

  • All free because Concerned Ape is awesome.
