It’s a way for governments to spend more without printing money and driving down the value of their currency.

The integration treaty was sudden and adopted so fast, everyone was really shocked!

Yeah I love the idea that they put orange hitler in a full nelson until he tapped out like the little bitch he is.

Any time broham

Good point. Now that you mention it, I see it. Far smaller drop in voting in the swing states that Trump won. Even one anomalous increase.

Yep.

Lines going to the right mean more republican votes, lines going up mean more democrat votes. Lines going straight down mean less democrat votes without more republican votes, lines going straight left mean less republican votes without more democrat votes.

One of the things I was looking for here was some evidence of tampering. Ie, some states moving much further towards the R’s than others, etc.

Florida is the only one that looks a bit sus to me, and I wouldn’t at all doubt foul play there.

The one definite trend is towards less voting over all. Whether that’s the candidates, voter disenfranchisement, or rigging can be debated. But I would think that if it were foul play we would see it more pronounced in some states than others.

Anyhow, data is data, make of it what you like.

Sorry, I meant more in 2016 where the DNC stole the primary with superdelegates (edited my original post to reflect rhis), though in 2020 they also systematically stole delegates from him.

The reason they lost twice to Trump all come down to these choices. If they had let Bernie win, Trump would be dead and buried. They dug their own grave.

You think that you are going to change the behavior of tens of thousands of voters by bitching about it? If you want to change how they vote, do something about it.

If someone’s still protest voting in this situation, it indicates issues with the candidates rather than the voters.

Kamala’s refusal to address the Israeli Genocide and the fact that she was the second candidate forced on the people by the party in an undemocratic way were the main reasons IMO. She was not a popular candidate in 2020, it was surprising she did as well as she did TBH.

They both may be political necessities for some reason but I believe that’s why the dems lost. Also sadly, I don’t think a black woman had any hope of siphoning off any potential Trump voters.

None of this would have happened if the DNC had allowed Sanders to win in 2016 instead of stealing the primaries with superdelegates. Nobody ever polled better against Trump than Sanders. In 2020 or 2016. But instead of letting him mop the floor with Trump. they fought him tooth and nail and even rigged the primaries against him.

You reap what you sow.

As someone who’s protest voted in a strongly blue state for years and who voted Biden only as a vote against Trump, I can’t say I support protest voting when democracy itself is on the line, but I can understand the motivation behind it.

I need one that allows me to submit too. For now Wefwef is still beating Memmy on look/feel for me. Liftoff! has the best featureset but I don’t like the looks so much.
