Yeah. Opening that case against Hillary in 2016 just before the election definitely helped get out the vote for republicans. Got them to pay attention for sure.

Was it because her name was “Comey”? Please tell me it was just because her name was “Comey”.

Edit: Yup. It was because she’s a Comey.

Not on me it doesn’t.

Pubic staff!! Lol

Lula wins!

I honestly want this to happen. It would be so hilarious at this point.

I am the 7. You guys are nerds. I love you.

I agree with all of you that in the past, violence was necessary. But that was the distant past. A different generation is living now and we don’t need to kill anyone to have a revolution. And every time we do, except in VERY rare cases, it backfires.

Yeah that is a meme I was unfamiliar with.

Ahh.

Huh?

Yeah but they data mine you as they do it I think.

Me too. Thats why we can’t give up. We can’t stop pushing for what we want. We can actually change minds just by talking. For instance, my wife was talking to her mother today and her mom listens to nothing but Fox News and KFI. Brainwashed conservative. She said the ONLY two things she’s concerned about in the world are “AI and these Democratic Socialists who want to take over and get rid of the police and ruin the country”.

My wife let her have it. She brought receipts. They went through the DSA website together. They looked at what socialists actually believe. And you know what? Her mom was like… “Oh. Hmm. That all sounds a lot more reasonable than what I’ve been hearing.”

It’s a small thing, but taking the time to do it actually can have an impact.

Yeah I suppose you’re right. Good call.

Yeah… maybe Y2K instead of 3000? And remove 19. Who says 19?

Yeah I’m at that point now too. Only issue is storage. I want to move my entire Gmail inbox but it’s too big for the free plan. Might have to cough up some dough if I can’t find a better alternative.

What do you use?

I fundamentally agree with you on principles. Where we disagree is on tactics.

if you had opened with, “We don’t need to worry about defending our communities because we can always just rely on the cops to protect us” then I would’ve just laughed in your face.

I would have too. That would be fucking absurd. Can you please top whacking at straw men and actually address my points?
