Registering as an "Independent" party member doesn't mean you have no party affiliation; most states have an Independent party who has a platform that you may or may not agree with!

It’s a common misconception, but if you registered "Independent Party" you aren’t “independent” you are a member of your state’s Independent party, who has a platform and agenda you may or may not agree with. What you actually want is called an "unaffiliated" voter status. The good news is, all you have to do...

Exactly the same for me. Never saw any particular party as one worth affiliation with my voting choices though I do end up voting for Democrat backed choices most often.

I don't get the blame for "journalists" here. These are media outlets run by big corpos who knows they'll control the narrative. Can we uplift quality journalism that is also not filled with bought and paid for journalists and media. If you don't like CNN stop listening to it 25/8. Same for Fox, et al. The complaints about the media sound like boomer ramblings but I seem to hear it most often from millennials. Like, who the fuck else you relying on to know what's going on in the world?

Great video but I really can't agree with this protest pushing abstinence from voting on the upcoming election. I get that the current administration is enabling this, but the vote for the American president encompasses so much more than international strife. I wish we could separate that notion because it feels like a it's been driven by foreign influence to sway the election. We cannot allow another Trump term. Cannot. If you think a protest for Palestine today is going to impact the presidential election as a "lesson" to your fellow Americans then the next protest against the policies of Project 2025 and Trump, will end up overshadowing all that you're protesting now and the genocide will continue. Project 2025 will destroy America and anything left of Palestine. Yes war needs to stop, but voting for the lesser of two evils is all we get now. There will be not reckoning event for Democrats, they just need to claw back enough power to hold the legislative and keep it from the GOP while also making considerable changes to their own power structures within their party.

mibo80 ,

What are the odds that place is run by a Russian...?

mibo80 ,

Another aspect of Project 2025 is for Trump to appoint select individuals vetted to ensure that they will uphold and enforce the core tenets of this christo-fascist manifesto.

maybe OP is a moron, too. condolences to his family.

Trump juror quits over fear of being outed after Fox News host says she should scare Trump ( www.salon.com )

Those calls came after numerous media outlets reported potentially identifying biographical information about the woman, including her job and the neighborhood she called home. Fox News Jesse Watters highlighted the juror's details while reading through public pool notes about the selected members. "This nurse scares me if I'm...

Exactly, knowing ahead of time all of this should have been sealed by default. Anytime the defendant/case is this high profile the whole thing should be sealed off to contain this circus.

Russia to Hire Contract Soldiers in Bid to Avoid Unpopular Draft ( www.bloomberg.com )

Russia to Hire Contract Soldiers in Bid to Avoid Unpopular Draft. Russia is preparing to enlist more contract soldiers as it presses its invasion of Ukraine, aiming to avoid at least for now another mass call-up that could undermine popular support for the war

mibo80 ,

Russians are pussies. Not like war is popular in any country, but if you're going to support it at least be willing to commit to it. In America we protested and they haven't done a draft in over 45 years and we still have plenty of 'patriots' still willing to fight our wars. Or just involve some proxy nation. With Russia, it's either you support it or straight to jail and few Russians have the balls to stand up en masse let alone leave the country.

This looks more like evidence of red State governments becoming more red or rather, the wealthy interest groups trying harder to keep it red. I think the majority of Americans are not brainwashed conservatives. Churches are losing membership. Spirituality is falling, as well. With a proven economic gain from rational science based reasonings it's a lot less likely there will be any regression unless society is destroyed. And I think, in the end, Republicans and conservative groups at large are just going to cheat to win. Consistently. They will rig votes and do all the things they accuse the Democrats of. Democrats really need to expose that for what it is. Give it the ol' Conservative media spin like they do. Stop focusing on trump but keep talking about conservatives at large. Expose more churches and private schools and sensationalize the shit out of them.

Eh that's Gen-X humor for you. Also, it's pretty palpable in this bit... no?

A Map of Gang Involvement in Drug Distribution ( lemmy.world )

The War on Drugs is not metaphorical, and actually consists of a set of undeclared conflicts fought domestically by the police against the general population and its irregular fighters, and internationally by US intelligence services in conjunction with the various fascist dictatorships that the US establishes and maintains...

mibo80 ,

Interesting how many of gangs are located on major highway systems and in truck stop towns. Not surprised though and I'm betting human trafficking networks probably look the same.

mibo80 ,

Face what? Poorly funded educational systems? Christo-fascism? Social Media? Corporate-run/for-profit news/media outlets? Funny how the guy not in power has so much pull in our government that he could persuade the Republican-controlled house of reps to withhold voting on immigration - the very thing this 'lamb' uses to scare up his base. Sorry my guy, but he's part of the problem, too.

mibo80 ,

I wonder if he really did get a piece of it. Seems more like they're giving him a little money for his role in securing a much larger investment in US intelligence secrets and his properties. He personally profited a little his Saudi friends are going to profit a lot.

mibo80 ,

Shirley, you can't be serious.

I visit daily for a few of the top stories on r/all and some subreddits like, r/Helldivers, but overall my interest in anything else on that site has soured. It's not nearly as engaging as it was and the subs that get pushed are just terrible copies of what was great. It's definitely died before but this is different.

mibo80 ,

No fucking way am I going to be digging that close to another grunt with sandals on. Lost toes must've been common.

The crazy thing is how they don't see how this will only make the view of those educated in Florida as less than that of say NY. Companies like, Google, are pretty selective and if this part of their education is gone this isn't going to give anyone a leg up in the selection process but rather will explain why graduates from FL have a harder time getting along with, relating to, and working with their team members.

mibo80 ,

This doesn't sound like someone anyone should support. We already had 4 years of this fat fuck and he couldn't even keep himself from getting COVID . Why the fuck would I trust him over the president who saw one of the largest economic investments in this country in decades. Meanwhile now everyone is feeling the trump tax effect this year and all that inflation from those shit Chinese tariffs and non-existent pandemic policies. Yeah thanks for clearing that up for us.

Hope her husband didn't lose any wars or get captured.

‘A Palpable Fear of Even Letting Your Friends Know You Are a Democrat’ ( www.politico.com )

Something I’ve experienced traveling around the state is that there is a palpable fear of even letting your friends know you are a Democrat, or even in line with what Democratic politicians are doing. There’s vandalism that takes place here, and people are scared of that. Having your yard sign stolen or your flag taken down...

mibo80 ,

what is the "fire" in the context of political mis-information? Do we need to regulate Facebook and Shitter? Cut them off from being allowed to host any political information.

mibo80 ,

Also, McCarthy was on tape admitting he 'knew for certain' that Trump and then-Rep. Dana Rorabacher were on the take with Russia. At this point you're either a deluded, moron who only listens to Fox News, votes republican and doesn't know what atoms are or how gravity works, or you're on the left.

Taylor Swift is the balance in the force. She's the only other cult leader that scares Republicans. Fascists want to use her but can't touch her or her fan base. Anything happens to her or Travis Kelce in any harmful way, they can kiss their Novembers goodbye entirely for future generations. A reckoning will occur and millions of girls will outright shun and reject their alt-right father and mothers and continually vote against everything they support. They're terrified of her just in the context of how she has dominated the attention with the NFL imagine what's going to happen to the GOP going forward.

mibo80 ,

The answer to the question nobody asked, "how do I cut myself in half?"

mibo80 ,

right? I thought she was slightly illiterate.

mibo80 ,

Yeah, proud Californian here whose last Republican vote went to Schwarzenegger. Never another Republican ever again. I refuse to let this state become a complete shit hole in allowing Republicans and Christian Fascists to settle here safely. Your vote is never going to be worth it. Just leave.

mibo80 ,

We did enough to meddle into their affairs in the past and the end result is what you see now. There is no business for the US to be there. Although... this development changes a lot. Honestly this is another Trump/Bolton/war hawk conservative fuck up. By canceling the nuclear deal the US has no other inroads to talk directly with higher up officials in Iran. Even if it didn't stop a missile program it would have built a bridge that would have given SOME access to the regime. Now we are only looking over the fence at them and our only voice is going to be our military. What a shit show of geopolitics we've been lead into thanks to Trump. This is what Christians want more of? I hope we send all their children to war because I'm not sending mine.

Had a nice treaty we were working on that could have help control that advancement. Thanks Donald, you fat, no-nothing fuck

Republican governors in 15 states reject summer food money for kids ( www.washingtonpost.com )

The governors have given varying reasons for refusing to take part, from the price tag to the fact that the final details of the plan have yet to be worked out. Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds ( R) said she saw no need to add money to a program that helps food-insecure youths “when childhood obesity has become an epidemic.” Nebraska...

damn these stupid fucking Republicans just want to make more shit head people. red states are about to be nothing but lowest common denominator states and the sensible blue enclaves are going to have to deal with that special brand of extra-leaded kind of retard shooting up Schools, raping other kids, polluting the environment, voting Republican and going to church. Fucking no-no thing hicks forget who buys their shit from them and it's not broke ass rednecks.

Banning something enjoyable that harms no one and has nil impact on society - just conservative things.

And for their car wash equipped stations, "Sit 'n Spin."

Thai change is not very 'Maverick' of them, either.
