and 2000 years ago Roman soldiers were paid with cocaine.

Goddammit, reject modernity, return to tradition! What a golden age!

“That being said, I am happy to give up my right to vote as a trade for a significantly better quality of life. It’s cleaner, it’s safer. There’s more opportunity in mobility,” she said.

“There’s no one on this planet who could be that bad of a person that we need to assassinate just to keep them out of the presidency,” Christian said. “How radical the American culture and society is getting in its entirety is making me go, ‘I really need to get out of here.’”

Christian and Salah said they won’t be voting, and Do said she is still learning about the process for voting abroad right now.

“I think American politics is a joke,” Salah said. “I think we’re seeing that no matter which party is in power, no matter which face it is, it’s kind of the same system.”

Jesus fucking Christ.

It's fun, Lemmy having an option for searching user comments. See a user make a suss comment? Search their comments for 'Ukraine'. If they're a fascist, there's a good chance they can't help themselves but start talking about "Russia's legitimate security concerns" or "2014 coup"

Many of the people involved in such agitation are not arguing in good faith. They simply want to attack the 'libs' at every opportunity, and reality be damned.

So glad someone got it lmao

What is this timeline

"He's called Vamp because-"

"He's a vampire?"

"No. I mean, yes, he is a vampire, but he's called Vamp because he's bisexual."

Never change, Kojima.

POSSESSION! SELF-HYPNOSIS! PSYCHIC POWERS BY PROXY!

Unironically, it's incredible how Kojima has a very clear and fairly substantial knowledge of history and international affairs and decides to just say "Fuck it" and combine it with giant nuke mecha piloted by psychic children and defeated by a brain-damaged man rescued by a Russian cowboy while listening to "She Blinded Me With Science" on his walkman. It takes a special kind of visionary, and I'm here for it

I just don’t understand why the democrat leadership didn’t even try having this conversation before the primaries.

They may have tried in private, but "The incumbent has an advantage, and we need every advantage we can get" is compelling conventional political wisdom.

Nah man, I've eaten those wax candies with the goo inside, they're awful, but Hershey's is several steps below.

In part. There are even more bizarre types. I know strong union supporters who vote Republican, but have positive opinions on Bernie. I know liberal voters who voted Trump in 2016 to 'shake things up' (I am not very close with them, for obvious reasons). Many people in this country do not have a coherent ideology they vote by, and are swayed by many small factors.

You do realize there's more to the electorate than just dedicated Dem voters, right?

Just because we'll be telling people to "vote Blue no matter who" doesn't mean they'll necessarily do it.
